Chapter 670 You'll Find Out
"Chloe, did you hear me?" Candy asked, noticing that Chloe seemed lost in thought.
She reached out and gave Chloe's shoulder a gentle push.
The small gesture startled Chloe. Her eyes widened, and she shouted, "Don't touch me!"
Her outburst drew the attention of passersby on the street.All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.
Realizing the commotion she had caused, Chloe quickly turned to Candy, her face flushing with embarrassment as she tried to explain herself.
But Candy wasn't in the mood for explanations. With a puzzled look, she said, "Let me see your bag."
Until just now, she had thought the man's claims were just nonsense.
But after Chloe's outburst, she could no longer ignore it.
She wasn't interested in awkward interactions with Chloe; if that man had claimed to see medication in Chloe's bag, then she needed to see it for herself.
Chloe tightened her grip on the strap of her bag. "There's nothing in my bag, just some ordinary stuff."
"If it's just ordinary stuff, then show me," Candy said firmly, unwilling to back down.
The two of them stood face-to-face in the middle of the street, locked in a standoff.
After a long pause, Candy finally asked, "Chloe, are you hiding something from me?" They were best friends.
Despite the times they couldn't always be there for each other due to their own lives, they both knew they shared a deep trust, a bond that should allow them to talk about anything. But now, Chloe seemed to be keeping secrets and wasn't even admitting it when confronted.
Chloe pressed her lips together. "What could I possibly be hiding from you? You're overthinking it. There's nothing wrong."
If she had known today would be so full of surprises, she would never have agreed to go out for dinner.
Chloe blamed herself for thinking everything would go smoothly.
"Chloe, do you take me for a fool? I've noticed everything-how you've been dodging me, even how worked up you got when I tried to take something from your plate. I'm not blind!" en FindNovel
All the strange behaviors Chloe had displayed earlier came crashing into Candy's mind. She even began to doubt if the man's claims in the restaurant had any truth to them. Shaking her head, she thought, "No way. Chloe couldn't possibly be that kind of person.

Seeing Chloe remain silent, Candy stepped closer. "Chloe, what's going on?"
She just wanted to understand the truth.

"You want to know why I'm acting so strange? You'll find out if you come in."
But she couldn't accept being pushed away like this.
Chloe took a deep breath, struggling internally before she finally said, "Can you come with me to the restroom?"
Candy was puzzled by the sudden request but then remembered she was pregnant and nodded.
"Alright, I'll go with you."
She figured they could talk about it later after they were out of the restroom.
On their way there, Chloe stopped to buy a bottle of water.
