"Does Vernon not realize what he's doing will make me fall for him? It's not fair, because I know that he's only using me as a toy. After all, he just wants a new experience…"
Chloe didn't like thinking about this growing feeling when she was working here. But she couldn't help it, at least not when Vernon showed an ounce of kindness to her, her heart would skip because she always wanted to be treated so gently by her ex-husband.
"I'm already past my expiry date… I shouldn't have felt this way…" Chloe tried to tell herself to know her place, so she would never dream about loving Vernon.
'Know your place, Chloe. Know your place.'

Vernon's eyes were lingering in the direction of the laundry room. He felt weird that Chloe tried to hide something from him.
He shifted his attention to Mackie who was eating her breakfast joyfully. He got the idea that Mackenzie had been trained to ignore her Mommy's problem, even tried to hide it from others.
Earlier update today because I accidentally pressed publish instead of scheduling it, haha xD
