158 Chapter 158

'If I tell her about this, her marriage will turn to shambles… and what about her four sons? Their sons see their dad as a good father, right?'

Chloe looked at Mackie, who was busy eating. She was already feeling so guilty about separating from Vincent and potentially ruining Mackie's childhood because Mackie wouldn't have a perfect family anymore.

So if Chloe told her big sister about this, she'd probably ruin the lives of her four nephews.

Besides, Chelsea's life was already difficult as it was. By telling her this, it'd destroy her life.

'I… I'm not sure what to do. Should I tell her or… should I not?' Chloe wondered. She needed more time to decide whether to tell her big sister about Tommy's affair or not.

She just didn't want to make a rash decision that'd led to an already bad relationship between them turning worse.

'Besides, Mom already called me a whore and completely sides with Vincent. I know Chelsea resents me, but if I made a wrong decision and completely ruined our sibling relationship….'

Thus, Chloe decided to collect the evidence first. She fished out her phone from the bag. Chloe made sure she had silent her phone and opened the camera app.

She aimed the camera toward the two forbidden lovebirds showing an unnecessary public display of affection and capturing the moment.

She checked the picture and was relieved that she took a good pic because, in the pic, Tommy was shown kissing the cheek of that woman without shame, even though there were kids in the restaurant right now.

'Okay, I can use this as evidence later in case I want to tell Chelsea about Tommy's affair,' Chloe thought as she saved the picture. She didn't really have anything against Tommy. In fact, he was one of the in-laws that treated her fairly.

'But Chelsea is my sister. She is my priority….'

Mackie saw that her Mommy was busy with her phone and also aimed her camera at the same spot where she forbade Mackie to see. So, Mackie asked, "Mommy, why are you taking pictures? Can I see?'

"It's nothing, dear. Just focus on your food—"

"I already finished it!" Mackie said happily as she pushed the empty plate towards her Mommy.

"Ah—" Chloe forgot that her daughter was a big and fast eater, so it was easy for her to consume a full bowl.

"Let's go now, Mommy!" Mackie said. "I want to eat Ice cream!"

Mackie gulped. She glanced at Tommy and that girl who was still at the same table. So if she decided to get up and get out, she had to pass them as their table was near the entrance.

'There's a big chance he'll notice us if we leave now,' Chloe thought.

Thus, she thought of a reason to hold them for a while here, at least until Tommy left.

She noticed that her food was still barely touched. Thus, she said to her daughter;

"Would you mind waiting for Mommy, dear? I still haven't finished my food," Chloe said.

"Oh! Okay!" Mackie nodded happily. She wanted her ice cream, but her Mommy's need was more important! It was also fun seeing her Mommy eat!

Chloe gulped, and she started eating very slowly to prolong their stay here. Mackie was satisfied with her Mommy eating, so she sat relaxedly and sipped the strawberry juice she ordered.

Chloe glanced from time to time to see whether Tommy had left. But those two ordered so many foods that it would take a while until they left, much to her grievance.

After she finished the food, Tommy and his girl were still in their seat, even though Chloe tried to eat as slowly as she could.

"Mommy is done eating! Let's go now, Mommy. I want to eat ice cream first before watching Minion!" Mackie said.

"D—Dear, why don't we sit here for a while? Mommy feels a little full…."

"Ehhh… but we will be late for Ice cream and movie, Mommy!" Mackie finally protested. They had been in the restaurant for a while. They would miss the movie and ice cream!

"Mommy, let's go and eat ice cream! You can sit there with Mackie!" Mackie insisted as she got impatient.

"M—Mackie, Mommy feels a little full. Let's wait, okay?"

"No, let's go now, Mommy!" Mackie insisted even more, and she tried to jump from the tall chair because her feet didn't touch the floor.

But when she jumped from the chair, she accidentally stepped on the soup stain on the floor and slipped alongside the chair, which made a loud banging noise.

"MACKIE!"

Chloe panicked and got up from her chair. She checked on Mackie, who slumped on the floor.

The sound alerted everyone in the restaurant, including Tommy and his girl. He turned his head and saw Chelsea's little sister, Chloe Gray.

His eyes darkened, and his mood was ruined instantly when he saw her because he knew it would be a disaster if Chloe told Chelsea about his affair.

"What? What are you looking at, Tommy?" the girl asked. She followed his line of sight and noticed a woman caring for her child who fell from the chair.

That woman looked so beautiful despite being so thin, which triggered her competitive nature as a woman, "Ugh, look at that woman. She's so sloppy taking care of her daughter. If that was me, I'd ensure my daughter won't slip and fall like that."

"Look at her dress too. She's wearing a scarf even though it's still summer, so weird. Right, Tommy?" the girl asked for support from her sweetheart.

'Visit (No ve (l)B i n) to read, pls!',

"Yeah…" Tommy nodded slowly. He clenched the spoon in his hand, trying to contain his anger so Dahlia— his date wouldn't suspect a thing.

Tommy dropped his spoon on the plate, making a loud clanking sound in the quiet environment, alerting Chloe instantly.

CLANK!

Chloe turned her head when she heard the sound of dropped spoon coming from Tommy's table, and their eyes met.
