Bab 174: Chapter 174

Vernon wrapped his hand around Chloe's waist to stop her escape. His gaze darkened, "Where are you going? You haven't told me anything yet."

Vernon pulled her to his side, trapping her in his tight embrace until Chloe's face was buried in his pecs. Chloe looked up and met Vernon's hostile gaze. 

It was intimidating, and Chloe wouldn't lie that she was scared.

But the more he tried to intimidate her, the more she felt there was no point in telling him about it. 

Chloe clenched her fist to toughen herself so she had enough bravery to open her mouth. Then she replied;

"I don't want to tell you, Vernon."

Vernon's eyes widened for a second before they darkened even worse than before. Chloe could sense the anger in Vernon as if he was ready to crush her if she continued to refuse. 

Chloe's heart hammered in her chest. She wanted to look away, but it would probably anger him even more.
