Chloe helped Michael up. Ever since their divorce, they had both stayed in the same city and kept running into each other.

She had wanted a clean break, but their social circles overlapped too much, making it impossible to avoid him. She knew this situation wasn't right. Maybe if she left, he would realize his feelings for her were just an illusion, driven by stubbornness rather than genuine affection.
