Chloe Reed’s lovely brows furrowed. "Is he dead?"

Nathaniel Monroe gave an awkward laugh. "Come on, Chloe, don’t joke like that."

"I’m not joking." Chloe Reed looked at him, her expression perfectly calm. "I used to think about how we were together for eight years. I wanted to break up peacefully. But now, I’m starting to hate him. I wish he were dead."
