"And Nate's girl and my ... ex-something," he said, sighing, unsure what he and Chloe ever were.

"Look I don't keep up on political stuff, yeah? All I knew was that he was well-funded, well-armed, and had a job worth looking into. His temperament was a job hazard I hadn't counted on."

Now it's not that he wouldn't have taken the job had he known ... but if he did, well then yeah maybe he would have been onboard with Chloe's idea that they dick him over.

But then he also now knew that Nate was dicking Chloe the whole time so really the whole thing was a waste.
