Chapter 29 You Can't Play the Leading Lady

Hearing Chloe call out, Michael quickly broke away from his heated conversation and rushed over to her. He shot a worried look at Karlie, who was sitting next to Chloe, and asked, "Everything okay?" "Mic, my coffee's gone cold. Can you grab me a hot one?"

Michael nodded, "Sure thing, but Karlie's right here. You could ask her too since your leg's not great."

Karlie, eager to impress Michael, chimed in with a smile, "Yeah, Chloe, if you need coffee, just ask me. No need to call Mic over."

Chloe smiled, feeling a bit embarrassed, "I don't know Miss Taylor well, so I prefer asking Mic."
