Chapter 509: Chapter 509

"Fine, Deal! Don't you regret this, Chloe!" Vernon threatened. "You will lose your freedom! I will make sure you won't speak with anyone except me and our small family! I won't allow you to go out unless you come with me!"

"Alright. Mhm. Understand," Chloe reacted with plenty of nods and agreement. 

Vernon might be the one who threatened Chloe, but he was the one who felt defeated in this argument. He pocketed Chloe's phone to make sure that she wouldn't be able to contact Dorothea after this, not until their bet had a result. 

Though, the result was already obvious. 

"I don't understand," Vernon murmured. "Why do you insist on me forgiving Dorothea so much? You know what she did to me, right?"

"I know, and though I wish you could forgive her, all I want from this bet is to sit you with her together at a table. I want you two to have a heart-to-heart talk as mother and son."
