Chloe was quickly whisked away from the private room by Connor. Once they were in the car, Connor still had that stern look plastered on his face. Thinking he was upset about what just happened, Chloe rushed to apologize. "Sorry, did I mess things up for you today?" she asked.

The folks in that room were all part of the Eldridge Elites crew. They weren't as mighty as the Sartori family, but they definitely weren't nobodies. Connor sticking his neck out for her could mean trouble. "I'm not mad about that," Connor grumbled.

Seeing his expression, Chloe knew he was waiting for her to sweet-talk him. So, she played along, gently scratching his chin. "Then what's got you all riled up?"

Connor let out a huff and suddenly asked, "Is my physique not good enough?"

Chloe was caught off guard, wondering where that came from. "Your physique is great," she said, genuinely puzzled.

"Are my six-pack abs not enough for you to admire or touch? You had to go and check out that jerk?" Connor pressed.

Chloe paused, finally piecing together what was bugging dear Connor. It was all because she glanced over when Alan took off his shirt.
