Chapitre 479: Chapter 479

She was feeling guilty that she had to trick Vernon again. 

Vernon had been nothing but good for her, and it was true. He was being so protective because Chloe had just got beaten to hell and back by Vincent. 

But Dorothea's case was special, and Chloe had to meet or at least come to room 1112 to check if she was actually in Phoenix Tower. It'd be great if she was lying, trying to scare or threaten Chloe.

But if Dorothea's threat was true, that Dorothea already knew about Vernon's identity, then she might have to do the most extreme, whatever that was— as long as Vernon's identity would be safe.

"Good, I'm going to work now. See you later—" Vernon paused for a moment. His mouth was slightly open as there was a word he wanted to say but couldn't because the timing wasn't right. 

And that word was 'Honey.'

Vernon exhaled helplessly and patted Chloe's head gently before he entered the elevator and left.
