Chloe Grant abruptly woke up.
Why did she think of him?
Chloe Grant shook her head, repeating firmly, "Mom, I've made up my mind!"
Her mother took a moment before responding, "I'll discuss it with your father and call you back in a few days. Take this time to think it over yourself."
"Okay, Mom."
After hanging up, Chloe Grant placed the phone aside.
She thought she would feel relieved, but instead found her mind weighed down heavily.
It felt like something was pressing on her chest, making it hard to breathe, oppressing her.
"Honk—"
A car horn sounded from downstairs,
and Chloe Grant glanced down casually, not paying much attention, intending to look away...
Is that...?
Chloe Grant quickly lowered her head, looking downstairs.
The streetlights and car headlights were enough to make out the familiar car below and... the familiar person.
