Chapter 666 Out

Chloe didn't want her best friend to find out about her illness.

"Candy came over specifically to see you. You know how she is; she won't leave until she's seen you," Michael said.

Michael knew that if he went downstairs to explain, Candy might think he was deliberately keeping Chloe from her, which could make things worse. Chloe's face darkened at his words. She knew Candy's personality all too well.
