Chapter 33: Duty "Hey, Lucy asked, "Trouble with Chloe lately? Is that why you look so tired and distracted?"" Michael snapped back to reality. "It's nothing. Just thinking about tomorrow's flight." Lucy didn't press further, simply asking, "So, you coming to eat?" Michael glanced at the takeout box and cracked a rare smile.
"No, you go ahead and eat. Chloe broughtsfood." Lucy froze.
1/5 She stood frozen for a long moment before taking a deep breath.
"Never mind. It's a bit late for the cafeteria now, and I'm not that hungry anyway. Let's just go over the key points for tomorrow's meeting." Lucy forced a smile, hoping Michael would notice her silent struggle and sacrifice.
But Michael totally missed her point. "Alright, I'll let everyone know in the work chat later." Lucy felt really uncomfortable being brushed off like that.
Chapter 33: Duty She hesitated for a moment and said, "Michael, everyone just saw Chloe getting close to you. This is still the office. Chloe shouldn't be doing that." "I'm worried the colleagues will gossip about you and Chloe. With evaluations coming up, what if this messes up your assessment?" "Alright, you go ahead and eat. I'm outta here." Seeing that he was distracted, Lucy wisely chose not to press further and simply walked away.

2/5 Chloe stepped out of Paramount Airlines, her smile vanishing in an instant.
"I've been cooking all morning just to bring him this meal," she thought.
Not only did I fail, but I almost got bullied! What crazy idea did Candy cup with this time? She said the way to a man's heart is through his stomach. What a load of nonsense! I actually bought it.
Chloe angrily whipped out her phone, typed a few lines in her Chapter 33: Duty chat with Michael, and smashed the send button. Shoving the phone back into her bag, she hailed a cab and took off.
She thought, "If I do this again, I must be crazy!" Just as she was lost in thought, her phone buzzed. Chloe unlocked it and saw a message from Michael.
He snapped a photo of his food and added a caption.
"They taste good. Now that you've quit, cby every day and bringlunch." His commanding tone made Chloe laugh in exasperation.
Chloe thought, "How dare he askto bring him lunch every day?" Her fingers moved faster than her brain. She shot back: "Why should I?" "This is your duty as my wife. Do your job well." Chloe tossed her phone aside, thinking, "Screw this duty! He's totally nuts!" She sat in the car, watching the scenery blur past, thinking Michael had lost his mind.
In three years of marriage, Chloe had cooked once.
But Michael never ate it. He said her food was as boring as she Chapter 33: Duty was.
Chloe thought, "So all that was just BS! He said it and forgot it!" After the anger, Chloe felt helpless and frustrated.
She thought today's divorce talk would go smoothly, but it was a total letdown.

Chloe thought, "Michael is dead set on making my life miserable. Not only is he refusing the divorce, but he also demands that I bring him lunch. every day." "When will this marriage finally end?" In the Paramount Airlines office, Michael let out a low chuckle when Chloe stopped responding.
He just texted saying the food was legit good, and he meant it.
Michael had never tasted Chloe's cooking before. He assumed it would be terrible, but to his surprise, it was amazing.
For three years, he couldn't shake the feeling that Chloe was boring, just a dull woman Adams had forced into his life: Lately, Michael realized he barely knew her at all. He thought, "She's not as boring as I thought."
Whether she was rocking that tight dress at the club last tor cozying up today she was sly as a fox. Chapter 33: Duty 5/5 But when she realized she didn't get what she wanted, she flew into a rage.
She's actually pretty fun.
If she keeps this up, I might just keep her around.
With that thought, he found himself eagerly anticipating their X
