After Divorcing my Captain Husband

Chapter 678 Care About You

"I know William is your friend, so I'll leave this person to you. If you want to notify William, I'll support that." Michael's deep voice resonated in Chloe's ears.

She understood Michael well enough to realize that he and James had just returned from meeting Erik. Given his usual approach, he would have dealt with the problem himself, just like he had with Ariana. But this time, because William was Chloe's friend, he held back from taking action against that guy. Chloe sat on the couch, contemplating her next move. "I guess I should call William," Chloe finally said.

She remembered that William hadn't come to cook today; he had mentioned being busy for a couple of days.

At first, she felt relieved that he wouldn't find out about her possible HIV infection, thinking it would keep him safe from the turmoil. But now, she had to reach out to him. "William, do you have a moment?" Chloe asked as soon as he picked up the phone.

Surprised by the call from Chloe, William replied gently, "I should be free in about half an hour. What's up?"

Chloe glanced at the clock. Half an hour would bring them to around five o'clock, not too late.

"Could you come over?"

Hearing the urgency in her voice, William sensed something was off. "Sure, I'll swing by after I finish up. What do you want to eat tonight? I can bring something." "No need for that; we've already got food prepared. Just come over," Chloe replied, trying to keep it casual.
