After Divorcing my Captain Husband

Chapter 40: The Frame-Up

"Hey, you alright?"

Quinn's heart ached as he noticed Chloe's slightly scraped heels.

"No worries. I'm used to it."

This wasn't Chloe's first rodeo in high heels. Back when she was a flight attendant for Paramount Airlines, she practically lived in them, hustling up and down the plane every day. Sometimes, even when the shoes don't fit, she keeps going.

Chloe had definitely gotten used to it.

Quinn, worried she might not handle it, lent her an arm to lean on. This way, she could relax a bit.

They were walking so slowly that by the time Michael and Lucy stopped in front of them, Chloe hadn't even noticed.

"Chloe, do I need to remind you again? You're still not divorced."

Michael's face was a stormy sea.

Chloe didn't say a word. She just glanced at Lucy standing next to him and couldn't help but feel a pang of irony.
