Chapter 599 A Wake-up Call Chloe went back to the living room, turned on the TV, and started texting Jessica about the project.

[The client is okay with an online deal, but they insist on meeting you in person first.] [Isn't that basically the sas an in-person meeting?] Chloe felt the client might not be serious about the project.

[Should we still take it on?] Jessica was also starting to question the reliability of the deal.

[Hold off for now. I'll dig into the company's background.] [By the way, Quinn seems to be having sissues.] Chloe was uncertain about how to handle Quinn's situation. Since going abroad, she'd hoped he would gradually let go of his feelings for her. Hearing that he was acting strangely made her anxious.

[What's going on with him?] [He's locked himself in his place in Urban Lane and has been drinking heavily. When I tried to talk to him, he kickedout. What if something happens to him?] Jessica was genuinely concerned that Quinn might be in a dangerous state due to excessive drinking.

Chloe frowned. She had never seen Quinn drunk and was worried.

She confirmed Jessica was at Urban Lane and then texted back. [Try knocking on his door. If he doesn't answer, let him know I'm trying to reach him.] After sending the message, Chloe called Jessica.

Jessica went to Quinn's apartment, knocked on the door, and waited. After several tries with no answer, she knocked again.

"Quinn, it's Jessica. Chloe wants to talk to you and she's on the phone with me. Are you there?" Jessica was concerned her efforts might be in vain.

But to her surprise, the door creaked open within seconds of her mentioning Chloe.

Seeing Quinn standing there, unshaven and disheveled, Jessica felt like she was seeing a stranger.

She handed him the phone and said, "Chloe wants to talk to you." She swallowed hard, worried he might not take it.

Only when he reached for the phone did she quickly slip into his room, like a rabbit darting into a burrow. The floor was littered with empty beer bottles.

On the call, there was a heavy silence as Chloe and Quinn both hesitated to speak.

Finally, Quinn broke the silence. "Hello?" He hadn't expected Chloe to contact him, especially through Jessica's phone.

"Quinn, have you been drinking a lot?" Quinn didn't answer right away, making Chloe feel frustrated.

"Quinn, I've always seen you as someone remarkable. Whether it's in your career or personal life, you have qualities that Vadmired. I don't want to see you lose those traits. Your life isn't over just because I'm not in it." Chloe's heartfelt words hit Quinn like a jolt to his heart. The man she admired had always been someone who shined brightly, not someone who would crumble at the first setback.

"Do you really think that if I don't love you, you're no longer a great person? That you're not are exceptional, of love? You you'll find someone who's right for you. But right now, what are you doing?" Chloe's words were like a wake-up call. Why had he let her absence make him feel like he didn't matter? For so long, he'd been focused on becoming someone deserving of her, making it his sole purpose.

Chloe's words made him see he was his own person and needed to find meaning in his own life, not just in her approval.

If he couldn't find meaning in his own existence, how could Chloe ever see any value in him? How could she ever love him that way? "Chloe... I get it now." After a long silence, Quinn finally spoke, his voice calm.
