"What can I do for you, Chloe?" He said, gazing at her intensely.
Her dress code seems like she wants to do more than talk, and Steven does not desire to go that route with her. Not when he is finally ready to move on with his love life. Sure, Steven and Julie had started on a rocky path, but he intended to visit her office at midday, apologize for his rude behavior and take her out for lunch.
Chloe stared back at Steven, and he seemed sensitive by her presence. He kept rubbing his neck. Chloe knew that this was a habit of his. Whenever Steven felt bothered or stressed, he would touch distinct parts of his body like his neck, face, or hair.
"I can leave if you don't want me here!" Chloe replied.
