Taylor was about to head out when Isaac swiftly caught her hand. "Don't go, or your brother might finish me off for sure!"
The way they exchanged looks and playful banter, it was obvious they were caught up in the sweet dance of young love.
Chloe suddenly remembered a saying: Eat, sleep, and dream of Taylor. She chuckled at the thought.
That was when Isaac realized they weren't alone. "Oh, hey Chloe."
Isaac was as friendly as ever, hardly noticing the need for formalities. Chloe had been taken in as a goddaughter by the Shaw family elders, but truth be told, she wasn't all that familiar with most of them, except for Winston. Yet, Isaac had a knack for making anyone feel at ease, like they’d known him forever.
Chloe grinned, "Isaac, I never imagined I'd be calling someone younger than me my sister-in-law."
Taylor blushed, a rosy hue spreading across her cheeks.
Isaac, on the other hand, was thrilled. "My sister-in-law's young, so take good care of her, alright?"
Taylor piped up, "I'm perfectly capable, thank you very much. I don't need babysitting."
"Okay, okay, you're the best, the absolute best," Isaac teased.
Watching them, Chloe couldn't help but feel they were like two mice who had stumbled into a honey pot. She quietly slipped away to avoid being the third wheel.
Finding a comfy sofa, Chloe took a breather and, feeling a bit bored, texted Connor about the whole scene she had just witnessed. Connor replied with a shocked emoji, followed by, "Anything else interesting going on?"
As if the world was full of endless excitement. Chloe glanced up and spotted Diana.
