Vernon didn't answer Chloe's question when she asked what kind of thing Vernon wanted to confirm.
All he did was stare at her with his deep hot gaze. If Chloe was given the right to fantasize, she would fantasize that Vernon was deeply in love with her, thus why he kept staring at her with that longing gaze.
As if he only had Chloe in his eyes and heart for a long time.
Chloe bit her lower lip, she knew this feeling was wrong, and she should be happy that Vernon was finding love after he had his heart broken by this woman who kept haunting his dream.
'But I can't escape the feeling of wanting more,' Chloe said in her heart. 'I feel greedy, and wished that someone would see me with those eyes.'
Chloe was still trying to deny it, but deep down, she knew that she wanted VERNON to be the one looking at her with such love.
