Chapter 39

Vernon realized that Chloe was eating very slowly. Too slow, in fact, that it started bothering him. 

He glanced at her while she was busy munching a slice of thumb-sized meat in her mouth. She munched it so slowly and even stopped a few times. Vernon counted that Chloe took at least ten minutes to chew that small bite of meat. 

Vernon said nothing, but he kept observing by giving her a side-glance while eating his portion. Chloe ate the cherry tomato and mashed potato in a tiny portion and then started her ten-minutes chewing again. 

At some point, Vernon had already finished with his big portion of food, while Chloe was eating maybe about 4 spoonfuls of the pot roast at most. 

Vernon continued eyeing her until he couldn't help to get aggravated by her slow eating. 

"Why are you eating so slowly? Do you not realize that you took at least ten minutes to chew?" Vernon asked.
