After Divorcing my Captain Husband

Chapter 22: Distance

Chloe smirked. "Mr. Shawn, you sure have energy to spare. Your date's still over there, yet you rushed over to chat with me."

She always picks on Lucy, leaving Michael feeling both helpless and confused.

He frowned, glancing at the curious eyes around him.

Michael casually pulled Chloe closer, his expression unreadable. "Chloe, I don't like you wearing that. Change it."

He selectively ignored Chloe's words.

Michael's arrogance surprised Chloe.

Even after three years, Chloe still couldn't measure up to Lucy in Michael's eyes.

Just as Chloe was about to say no, someone gently grabbed her arm from behind.

In the blink of an eye, tall Quinn yanked her behind him.

Quinn stepped between herself and Michael.
