Chloe Dixon

​Chloe Elizabeth Flynn (nee Dixon) is the main protagonist and narrator of the Timekeeper Saga. In Haunted, she is a 17-year old girl who moves back to Rochester, New York, to live with her wealthy grandparents following the tragic death of her mother, Marie Dixon. One snowy afternoon while exploring the attic at Dixon Mansion, Chloe accidentally travels back in time, where she meets an Irish immigrant named Jack Flynn aboard the R.M.S. Titanic.

Early life
Chloe Dixon was born to James McKay and Marie Dixon on February 26, 1995, in Rochester, New York. Her parents divorced when she was three years old. Chloe lived with her father, growing up mainly in upstate New York. During most of her childhood, Chloe visited her father in Manhattan every Christmas. The climate was slightly unpleasant to her and she convinced her father to spend some time with him at his summer home in Albany instead. As a child, Chloe briefly took ballet lessons, but had to quit because her mother found it difficult to pay for them by the time she was fourteen years old.

When Chloe was fifteen, she moved out of her father's house in Rochester and went to Venice Beach, California, to live with her mother, Marie Dixon. While in California, Chloe attended Calipatria High School in Los Angeles, California. She hardly fit in with her peers and had the feeling of being out-of-sync with everyone, including her mother. While Marie was impractical and liked to shift interests, Chloe grew up to be a more responsible and independent adult. During her free time, she preferred to stay home and compose music, in part because she felt misunderstood.

By the time she was seventeen, Chloe felt bored living with her mother and proposed that she move back to Rochester to live with her father. At first, her mother was somewhat hesitant about it, but later warmed up to the idea and made arrangements to move her out there as soon as December of that year. Unfortunately, before Marie could finalize any plans, she was killed in a car accident after dropping Chloe off to school in September 2012. In the aftermath of her mother's death, Chloe was forced to move back to Rochester and live with her grandparents instead of her father. According to her mother's will, she was supposed to stay with her grandparents until she was eighteen, after which she could decide on where she wanted to go.

It was Chloe who made the decision to stay in Rochester after her grandparents had enrolled her at Bridgeton Preparatory School. Although Chloe admitted it was scary finding new friends, she quickly developed a naturally responsible nature and thrived socially. When she was still at Bridgeton, her plan for the future was to get a degree in music and become a musician, like her father. However, she intended to perform at the professional level.

Haunted
At the beginning of Haunted, Chloe moved back to her birth city of Rochester, New York, to live with her grandparents, Walter and Emily Dixon. She enrolled at Bridgeton Preparatory School at the beginning of her junior year. She does not notice her own popularity at the school but tried making friends to fit in. One of the few friends she makes is a girl named Lily Dodds, a foreign exchange student who actually knew Chloe from their childhood. Later that evening, Chloe has dinner with her grandparents who tell her about the famous Dixon family as well as a brief history of the house.

The next morning, Chloe took a tour of the house with Ms. King. The one room at Dixon Mansion that intrigued her the most was the attic, a mysterious room on the fifth floor consisting of everything from old furniture to priceless heirlooms. The northeast corner, in particular, captured her interest due to a detailed, hand-painted family tree that dated back to the mid-18th century. Due to Chloe's uncanny ability to be excessively curious, she found herself wondering what could was hiding beyond that corner and decided she was going to go look for it.

When Chloe came home to a nearly empty house one snowy afternoon, she went up to the attic to entertain herself. However, she happened to find an abandoned part of the attic along with a leather-bound diary. Chloe knew she was breaking the rules by being up here, but figured looking at a book would not do anything. Unable to control her impulses, she opened it and found a silver skeleton key only to be thrown off by the sound of loud humming, and in a disorientated state, she ended up falling through a blank page in the diary and was transported back in time to 1912.

Upon waking up in the middle of an old street, Chloe immediately ran into a crowd of people all wearing period clothing. They were all walking towards a ship called the R.M.S. Titanic, which is currently moored to the dock. After being looked at funny, Chloe realized that she was still wearing her school uniform. Thinking this was some sort of dream, she was not aware this was actually real. she walks further into the crowd only to accidentally bump into a gentleman and the man immediately apologizes and introduces himself as Allan Dixon.

Allan took Chloe to meet his family. She quickly was introduced to Allan's wife, Cornelia, his daughter Louise Seymour, and her husband, Ralph Seymour. At first, they believed that Chloe was a total stranger, but quickly accept her as a family friend. When Chloe explained that she did not have any clothes to wear for the voyage, Louise arranged to have that taken care of. Prior to boarding the ship, Chloe saw a young man wearing a button-down shirt and trousers. She assumed this was the same man she saw at her mother’s house and makes it her mission to find out his real identity. After hearing her name being called, Chloe boarded the ship with Louise and the two befriend each other immediately.

The Seymours took Chloe to her stateroom, a welcome gift from Louise's parents, where she meets Louise's ladies' maids, Eliza Williams and Madeleine Ashcroft. It is in her stateroom that Chloe realizes she is in the year 1912 just by looking at the date on Louise’s boarding ticket. To further cement her reason for being here, she comes up with a story that she is a young socialite who has been separated from her family and robbed of her belongings by immigrants. This is more or less accepted by the Dixons, and she meets up with Louise and her family for dinner, during which she meets a man named Edward Gruel. Later that night, Edward asks Chloe if she would like to join him on a lunch date the following afternoon as a way to get to know her romantically. Although she is deeply flattered, Chloe tells him they don't have to turn it into a date, but Edward insists on it until Chloe caves in to accepting the invitation.

Their first date ends up being a total disaster. During it, Chloe feels miserable that she cannot talk about herself and realizes Edward turns the occasion into talking about his personal history. She tunes out Edward talking  and notices a boy wearing ragged clothing and a tweed newsboy cap. She sees that he is scavenging for food, she jumps at the opportunity to help this boy when Edward is distracted by lighting a cigarette. Chloe slips out of sight, climbing down the balcony by sliding down a column. From there, Chloe walks up to the boy and gives her the plate, explaining she didn't want to see the boy go hungry. When Edward sees this, he is outraged by Chloe's actions and rushes down to the main deck and firmly grabs her arm, telling her that socialites do not converse with lower class passengers. Enraged, Chloe storms off to another part of the ship, leaving Edward alone. That night, when she has dinner with Edward and the Seymours, she is already bored with her party group and would rather spend her time doing something else. About twenty minutes into eating their food, Edward announces that he has decided to take the next step and propose to Chloe.

After hearing this news, Chloe is deeply upset by this and hastily excuses herself from the dining hall. She ends up running back to her stateroom crying the whole way there. During this time, she somehow finds the courage to tell Edward how she feels about this decision, but when they confront each other in the hallway, Chloe confesses that she needs some time to think this over. Edward tries to comfort her, but Chloe is too upset to talk and she runs towards the promenade deck where she plans to commit suicide by jumping off the stern of the ship. After she climbs onto the back of the railing, she is almost startled by the same boy she gave her plate of food to earlier. The boy reveals himself as Jack Flynn, who is a handsome immigrant from Ireland who also is the boy in the vivid dreams Chloe has had almost her whole life. While out there with Chloe, Jack successfully manages to talk her out of suicide and carefully escorts her to a bench, calmly asking her what happened. After several minutes, they not only introduce themselves to each other; but it turns out they have many things in common and are compatible with one another. However, their conversation is interrupted by the sudden arrival of Edward and the Seymours.

Edward demanded to know where Chloe had been and blamed Jack for trying to seduce her. Before Jack can defend himself, Chloe jumped into the conversation claiming she slipped on the railing and Jack saved her life. Infuriated, Edward began to argue with Chloe, but she won the argument and made a point of stepping on his foot to prove it. Edward apologized to Jack for his outburst and thanked him for saving Chloe's life. Displeased with this, she asked Edward if Jack could come with them to lunch tomorrow afternoon and Edward reluctantly agreed. Later on, Edward gave Chloe an engagement ring and made her a deal that if she listened to him, then he would not lose his temper again. Chloe does not believe Edward will keep his promise, which lead her to think that something was wrong with Edward but she could not put her finger on it.

During breakfast the next morning, Chloe encountered Louise, who told her Jack was looking for her. However, he wanted to do it in a more private setting. She went off to find him and thanked him for saving her life the other night. Afterwards, they talked for hours about their personal lives and when she asked Jack what he did for a living, he handed her a sketchbook and told her to look inside. When Chloe saw the drawings, she was amazed that someone as talented as he was did not want to make his talents known to the world.

Jack and Chloe got to know each other better and he revealed that he had ambitions to change the course of politics in America by demanding equal pay for workers. This revelation about Jack's personality was something that made other people dislike him. As a poor immigrant, Jack had to be careful with who he talked to as his mouth had gotten him into trouble in the past.

Despite their differences, Jack and Chloe fall passionately in love. Jack introduced her to his friends and she was invited to a party down in third class. During the party, Chloe lost track of the time and forgot to go back to her stateroom. She decided to spend the rest of the evening with Jack, hoping that Edward will wait for her if he did not find her in their stateroom. She woke up the next morning and realizes that Edward was probably furious. Fearing the worst, she begged Jack to take her back to her stateroom, which he does. He then leaves before she can say goodbye.

By the time Edward answers the door, it was clear he has already eaten breakfast and invited Chloe to come in. As she sat down to eat a bowl of cereal, Edward asked her where she was last night and Chloe explained she was invited to a party and forgot about the time. Amused by her story, Edward reminded her that it was rude of her to go off and not tell him where she went. Feeling irritated, Chloe stood up for herself and told Edward she was his fiancé, not a child. Edward lost his temper and overturned the table the we’re eating breakfast at. In a need to satisfy his anger, he proceeded to strangle Chloe. Louise happened to walk in on the scene and managed to get Edward off of Chloe. As Edward stormed out of the room, Louise rushed to help and she comforted Chloe when she burst into tears.

Later on, Louise helped Chloe get dressed for lunch in her stateroom. Feeling a little hungry, Louise asked if Eliza could bring them a tray of tea and cookies. Eliza obliged and came back with the tray while Louise and Chloe got dressed. While putting on Chloe’s corset, Louise accidentally tightened it after she made a comment that she had to say something if Edward ever acted that way again. This lead Chloe to ask Louise if she should continue her relationship with Jack, to which Louise says she should.

The next morning, Chloe and Jack spent some quality time together. Chloe was unaware that Edward was spying on her while she ate lunch with Jack. Afterwards, Chloe returned to her stateroom and was shocked to find Ralph telling her that she should not see Jack anymore. When Edward walked into her stateroom, the two erupted into a heated argument where Chloe almost broke off the engagement. Later that afternoon, Chloe was at a church service with the Seymours and the Dixons, expecting Jack to come to the service and was disappointed when she found Jack was not coming as he was barred at the entrance. She met up with him shortly after the service ends and they spent dinner together. That night, Chloe took Jack to her stateroom where they kissed each other for the first time after dancing together. At nine o'clock, they left the stateroom and ventured off.

At some point, they ended up on the upper deck and sat together on a bench. While they kissed passionately, they were watched with amusement by the lookouts in the crow's nest. Not knowing the ship was headed for an iceberg, Chloe and Jack talked about their future while walking around the area. A few minutes later, they witnessed the ship strike the iceberg. Despite efforts to avoid the collision, the ship forms a huge gash in it’s hill and it was only a matter of time before the ship would sink.

Knowing that the situation was serious, Chloe and Jack go to first class to warn Louise and Ralph of what the saw. Before they can arrive, though, they run into Woodrow McFadden, Edward’s manservant. During the brief conversation, McFadden takes the engagement ring off of Chloe’s finger and slips it into Jack’s coat pocket. They are unaware this has happened and go to Louise’s stateroom. Although everyone is quite relieved to see them, the only one who is not is Edward. Halfway into the conversation, Edward notices that Chloe’s engagement ring is missing when he points it out. Although Jack does not believe it’s missing, he encourages Edward to look for it. After looking through the stateroom and finding nothing, Edward has Jack’s coat searched and finds the ring in one of the coat pockets. Although nobody saw Jack steal the ring, he is arrested and taken down to E Deck by the Master at Arms. Chloe begs Edward to let Jack stay, but he slaps her out of anger. He then takes her back into their stateroom and they begin another argument. This time, Chloe is forced to break off the engagement and she takes her engagement ring off and places it in a nearby teacup. With that done, she leaves Edward behind, locking the door on her way out.

Meanwhile, the crew starts instructing passengers to get ready to evacuate the ship. In Chloe finds Mr. Andrews nearby and quickly asks him if the ship was going to sink. He told her it would and that they do not have much time to discuss it further. Mr. Andrews urges Chloe to get into a lifeboat immediately and informs her that there was not enough room on the boats, a fact that would forever tarnish Andrews's reputation.

Outside on deck, the Dixons' obliviousness to the situation irritates Louise and she berates her parents by telling them that half of the people on the ship were going to die. Edward made matters worse by remarking that they would not be the first class passengers that would die first, causing Chloe to insult him when she passed by him. Meanwhile, in the upper deck, Molly Brown and Cornelia Dixon board a lifeboat and they encourage Louise and Chloe to come with them, but they refuse. Louise tells Chloe to go find Jack and she would meet them at the top of the Grand Staircase on D Deck. Chloe ran off in the opposite direction to look for Jack. Edward tried to stop her, but Chloe shoved him away and kept running. Encountering Mr. Andrews a second time as she raced down the Grand Staircase, she demanded to know where Jack was being held and he told her that he was being held in the Master-at-Arms office on E Deck.

Chloe ran to the lifts and had the attendant take her down to E deck, ignoring his protests. When the lift arrived at E deck, the rushing water makes Chloe almost drown in the lift, but she manages to get out by forcing the caged door open. The lift attendant abandoned Chloe by going back to the upper decks, and the water that was inside the lift poured out and soaked Chloe from head to toe. She entered the crewman's passage and was able to successfully swim her way through the mess of hallways leading to the Master-at-Arms office. She found Jack in the office handcuffed to a water pipe. Pressed for time, she improvised a handcuff key by using a hairpin and picked the lock, which freed Jack instantly.

They tried to get to a lifeboat, but were prevented from doing so due to a locked gate in order to let first class passengers evacuate first. Here they met up with Jack's friends, Tommy O'Hara and Cosette DuBois, who were also trying to escape. The four of them tried a smaller gate which was unlocked and they raced to the upper decks.

Chloe and Jack returned to the upper decks and were separated from Tommy and Cosette. Finding a lifeboat that was boarding, they went to go in, but the women-and-children-first policy meant that men couldn't board any of the lifeboats. Fearing that she would leave him to die, Chloe was apparently distraught of being separated from him. Edward had arrived and saw Chloe was upset. He encouraged her to get in, stating that he had made arrangements to leave with Jack on the next lifeboat, although Edward had made no such plans at all. After some coaxing, Chloe got into a lifeboat crying hysterically, hugging and kissing Jack goodbye before one of the ship's crew members pulled her away.

As the lifeboat was being lowered, Chloe realizes that she cannot leave Jack behind to perish on the Titanic. She darts to the edge of the lifeboat and throws herself successfully into a nearby window. After seeing Chloe pull this stunt, Jack races after her, praying that she made it and they reunite. Jack berates her, but Chloe tells him that it would be too painful if he were die and she couldn't save him.

Having seen this first hand, Edward is devastated and he follows Jack and Chloe through the ship's interior. Chloe and Jack rush into the dining hall in first class, thinking they are safe. Then they realize the door is locked and they cannot get out. Within they are greeted by Edward, who is holding a revolver in his hand. For her safety, Jack tells Chloe to hide behind a table while he settles this dilemma with Edward. Once hidden, Edward admits that he never truly loved Chloe at all, but wanted to use her instead.

Chloe is shocked when she hears this, but listens to more of the conversation. Edward reveals he has a narcissistic personality disorder, which is the only explanation for his erratic behavior. After hearing a chair move, it does not take long for Edward to find Chloe hiding underneath a table. She tries to run, but Edward catches up to her and tackles her to the ground and tries to hurt her. Seeing an opportunity to save Chloe's life again, Jack throws himself on top of Edward and they struggle for a few minutes. After pinning himself on top of Edward, Jack grabs a nearby butter knife and stabs Edward in the heart out of self-defense. He dies choking on his own blood as water starts flooding the hall.

Jack takes a shaken Chloe out of the dining hall around 1:30 on the morning of April 15th, 1912. They agree to go into Lifeboat 14 together and promise to never give up if one of them dies tonight. The next forty minutes are unbearable as the band begins to lose hope in cheering the few passengers on the ship. In the ensuing chaos, families are separated and couples are ripped away from each other’s arms. At 2:18 a.m., the Titanic breaks in half and the bow slowly sinks to the bottom of the ocean. Once the stern settles back onto the water, it isn't long before it too sinks.

Chloe and Jack jump in the water and swim to a wooden door and climb onto it, nearly freezing to death as they force themselves to stay awake and stay warm. Help arrives in time and Chloe and Jack are brought on board the Carpathia at seven o’clock that morning and the ship arrives in New York Harbor the following week. After the ordeal, Jack gives Chloe his mother's necklace as a gift and kisses her one last time. Chloe returns to the present and finds herself back in the attic. She darts to her bedroom only to run into Ms. King on the way there. When she asks Chloe where she has been, Chloe begins to tell her story.

A few weeks later, Chloe gets a surprise visit from her father at Christmas. He tells her that he doesn't want to make things more difficult than they already are and admits that he has something important to tell her. They go to a quiet room down the hall and he tells Chloe that her mother may have survived her fatal car accident. Not only does this force Chloe to wonder why her mother would go to such great lengths to fake her own death, but also why nobody told her about this. Unbeknownst to both of them, both Chloe and her father are being watched by a strange woman wearing clothes reminiscent of the 1920s. Although nobody can see her from inside the main house, it's clear the woman knows the Dixon family well. She leaves the premise, thinking of when the right time is to put her nefarious plans into motion.

Golden Girl
The events of Golden Girl take place on Chloe's eighteenth birthday. It also doesn't help that she has a nightmare where she is with whom she believes to be Jack, but the figure morphs into Edward Gruel. Jack comes to her side when she wakes up and wishes her a happy birthday. After a long day at school, Jack takes Chloe out to lunch and he takes her home to a birthday party thrown by her grandparents. The party suddenly turns sour when Chloe's father James shows up soaking wet, explaining that he saw something on the grounds and he needs her to help him investigate. Confused, Chloe follows her father outside and they don't find anything or anyone on the grounds, but Chloe wanders away from him for a brief moment and finds her locket that Jack gave her along with a mysterious note with a cryptic message regarding a deal with her grandparents.

After Chloe and her father come back inside, the party returns to normalcy, but Chloe is worried that something bad is going to happen. Jack reassures her that nobody would not dream of harming anyone on the property. After the party, everyone else goes to bed while Walter and Emily retire to the library for some quiet time. Later on, an intruder shows up and it is revealed to be Marjorie Dixon, who is the younger sister of Louise Seymour. When Jack comes downstairs to get a drink of water, he overhears the conversation between Marjorie and Chloe's grandparents. After listening for a while, he gathers that Marjorie would be happy if Chloe had never even existed and tried striking a deal with Walter and Emily to murder Chloe, but they refuse. Marjorie then murders Chloe’s grandparents in cold blood anyway and makes the scene look like a horrific freak accident. Fearful of what Marjorie might do next, Jack races upstairs and tells Chloe what happened. She follows him downstairs and they discover the corpses in the library. Seeing this, Chloe breaks down and enters a deep state of depression that lasts for several weeks. A month later, Chloe’s father tries getting her to have Jack take her out of the house for a few days, but she has a tantrum when they start packing her clothes into a suitcase. To help cope with her grief, she goes up to the attic to look for answers and does not care it worries her father or Jack.

A few days later, Jack discovers Chloe in the library and asks her why she is there. Chloe tells him she is looking for clues that might connect Marjorie to the murders. She is about to give up until she finds a dusty photo album. Opening it, she finds pictures of Louise's family and it doesn't take long to find Marjorie's portrait. She knows that the only way to solve these murders is to go back in time and kill Marjorie, which makes Jack feel uncomfortable. Chloe is startled when her father comes up and sees her and Jack standing together with Chloe holding the album with Marjorie's picture in it. He tries to convince Chloe not to do it, but she does it anyway and Chloe's father and Jack race after her and the three of them are transported back in time to 1924.

The three of them find themselves standing in the middle of Times Square, and James pushed Chloe and Jack out of the way of oncoming traffic. They find a vacant apartment to crash for the night and try to think things through. The next morning, they go shopping for clothes and agree to get their hair cut in order to blend in.

As they got used to Manhattan, Chloe began telling Jack that in order to solve this murder, they needed to use detective skills. The perfect opportunity comes in the form of an invitation to a party held that night at the famous Waldorf-Astoria Hotel hosted by the legendary Cole Porter. Chloe and Jack attend the party together and meet him at the door, who invites them in and quickly gives them refreshments. They meet other famous people throughout the evening, including Ernest Hemingway, F. Scott Fitzgerald and his wife, Zelda. Over the next two weeks, they continue attending parties at various locations in New York City. After a few weeks of doing this, they come to the conclusion Marjorie likes to be seen at night as opposed to during the day.

As Chloe and Jack begin to dig deeper in solving the murder, Chloe's time is filled with expanding her field notes when she hears from someone that Marjorie is meeting someone at the Four Queens Club in lower Manhattan. She goes there alone and observes Marjorie talking to a pudgy gentleman with a strong Brooklyn accent by the name of Al Capone. She takes notes the entire time she's there and makes sure not to draw attention to herself. When she leaves, the notes she obtains make little sense, but hopes that looking at them later will give some clarity. Upon returning to the apartment, she gets a call from someone named Mr. Bagnoli who tells her she needs to meet him in Bryant Park later that afternoon. When Chloe arrives, the stranger identifies himself as Francis Bagnoli. He informs her that there is a party tonight at the Plaza Hotel and Marjorie will definitely be there, but she has to make detailed observations while she is at the party.

When Chloe attends the party that night, she is shocked that Marjorie is nowhere to be seen and she hardly recognizes anyone familiar. To her surprise, Marjorie shows up when she least expects it and almost blows her cover. Panicking, Chloe calls the police and informs them that Marjorie is at the party. However, rather than sending one person to take car of it, they send a group of officers to crash the party. This provides Marjorie the perfect cover to escape and when the police are unable to find her, Chloe is furious they just barged into the party without thinking before storming off to go fix the situation. Walking back to where she has her operations base set up in a townhouse in the lower West Side, Chloe is secretly terrified that Marjorie has already figured out who Chloe is; therefore, she is worried about the safety of the people she loves the most. To add onto her stress, she has not seen Jack since they attended the party where they met Cole and suspects he is having an affair. Taking a cab to a nearby hotel, Chloe is horrified when she walks in on Jack kissing Mary Pickford in bed and runs out of the room, crying. Shocked, Jack goes after her and meets up with her in a more private area to explain himself. He comes clean with the affair, saying he was not the one who made the first move, rather it was Pickford who did. During their brief, torrid affair, Jack explains he was extorted for money and Mary threatened him with blackmail if he ever came clean with it. After their discussion, Jack ends his brief relationship with Mary and gets back together with Chloe later that night.

With a month into their investigation, Chloe thinks she'll never solve the murder until an opportunity comes along to go over her field notes. Within hours, Chloe is able to map out a sequence of events of what happened, ruling out different scenarios of a possible motive. Feeling this goes much deeper than bad blood, Chloe is intent on going to a party and finding this out for herself. Unfortunately, she gets drunk and goes home with a famous musician named George Gershwin and they end up sleeping together. Chloe uses sensual pillow talk to coax vital information about the motive Marjorie used for killing her grandparents and Gershwin ends up telling Chloe exactly what she needs to know. She leaves the apartment satisfied with what she has and is convinced that Marjorie is behind everything.

Upon successfully collecting information from Gershwin, Chloe spends the next day at The Four Queens waiting for Marjorie. She is about to give up and leave when she is surprised Al Capone shows up in Central Park. When she asks him where Marjorie is, he's reluctant to divulge any information he may have. Intuitively, Chloe knows this is a ruse to conceal Marjorie’s identity, but she knows she cannot leave without getting an answer. Trying to avoid a nasty fight, Capone has henchmen remove Chloe from the premises and taken into a back alleyway. Marjorie arrives not long after the henchmen bring her out and tells Capone's henchmen they can take the pleasure in delivering the first punch. Marjorie then tells them she will take care of the matter and they can go back into the restaurant. A brutal fistfight occurs after the henchmen go back into the restaurant, resulting in Chloe sustaining at least ten injuries and being left for dead in the alley. Chloe wakes up and finds the strength to walk, but collapses outside of Macy's flagship department store in Herald Square. Fortunately, she is found and rescued her her father and Jack, who take her to Bellevue Hospital and she is rushed into immediate surgery. Once she makes a full recovery, they agree to meet up with Cole and George at a café to discuss a plan to confront Marjorie. The three of them agree to meet Cole and George outside of an automobile warehouse in Brooklyn and drive down there, where they hope the can settle this dispute once and for all.

The group arrives in Brooklyn. What starts off as a casual meeting with Marjorie and Al Capone soon turns into a disagreement ladled with bullets. In the chaos, Jack is almost killed by Capone when he grabs him by the collar and holds a pistol to his head. Begging Capone not to kill him, she arranges for herself and Marjorie to settle this privately. When Marjorie asks where they would like to meet, Chloe answers that their meeting place will be at Dixon Mansion by challenging her to a car race. Chloe then goes on to explain whoever gets to the estate first will be the person who gets to pull the trigger. Always up for the challenge, Marjorie accepts Chloe's offer.

Marjorie and Chloe split up, bringing their own team of friends to come along with them. However, things get complicated really quickly once they leave Brooklyn. For one thing, Cole accidentally touches Chloe's skeleton key when he sees it fall out of Chloe's clutch purse. Unable to stop it in time, Chloe tells everyone to brace themselves as the car manages to go through a time portal activated by Chloe's key. They arrive in New York City in the modern day, scaring everyone when they appear in Times Square during evening rush hour. Unfortunately, Marjorie discovers the time portal and appears right behind them. From there, Marjorie and Chloe both race to Dixon Mansion. Once they do, Chloe, her father, and Jack all run out of the car, telling Cole and George to stay inside the Chrysler. Unfortunately, Chloe is unable to hide the embarrassment when she finds a furious Ms. King, who demands to know where they have been for the past three months. James promises to explain everything later, but right now, they need to take care of something. Seeing Marjorie running across the driveway, the three of them race upstairs, where Chloe somehow manages to take them to the attic with a door that leads directly onto the roof. They all take turns climbing onto a nearby table and climb onto the roof by means of a secret door. However, when they all get onto the roof, they are shocked that Marjorie has gotten there first.

Fearing for Chloe's safety, James tells Jack to keep Chloe hidden. He doesn't want her to risk her life to save his as James initially made Marjorie upset by unknowingly causing her boyfriends' death. When Marjorie sees James, she's surprised to see him and punches him squarely in the jaw, causing him to fall over. At that point, Chloe announces her presence. In response, the two confront each other and the truth comes out about what really happened the night Chloe’s grandparents died. This is revealed by an overly confident Marjorie, who points a gun at Chloe's chest, which nearly forces her off the edge off the roof. As Chloe dangles over the ledge, Marjorie whispers that she actually did kill Walter and Emily as well as her mother, Marie. Enraged, Chloe throws herself at Marjorie and pins her to the ground, forcing her to confess it. While this is happening, Jack and James are slowly being surrounded by mafia foot soldiers; which prompts a fight between them, Jack, and James. Chloe and Marjorie also go toe to toe with each other. In the midst of the fight, Marjorie tries to appeal to Chloe's good side, shifting the blame for the murders of Chloe's grandparents and mother to fall solely on the mafia's soldiers. This leads her to rat out several people, including Capone. Rather than leave the fight in defeat, Marjorie turns to murder Chloe, but she reacts in time and shoots Marjorie five times, causing her to fall off the roof to the ground as lightning flashes around them.

With Marjorie dead, Dixon Mansion is free from any more harm. The book concludes with Chloe getting accepted into Juilliard a few months later, which begins another chapter in her life.

Angel Wings
In the first chapter of Angel Wings, it is revealed that Chloe is almost finished with her first semester at Juilliard and was thinking about moving in with Jack, though her father was somewhat reluctant about Chloe moving into Jack's apartment. The servants are busy making arrangements for Thanksgiving dinner, which is only one day away. Meanwhile, Jack has talked to her about spending some quality time together during the weekend before she goes back to school, which Chloe sees as an opportunity to convince her father to let them clean the attic this weekend and thinks that Jack won't need to ask for James's permission ever again.

The dinner goes smoothly and Chloe meets Lily's parents for the first time. Shortly before dinner was served, Chloe asked her father if she could have Jack help her clean the attic over the weekend. However, her father was very skeptical about this "activity" with Jack and said she could do it as long as they agreed to only clean the attic and not to touch anything. Luckily, Jack heard the conversation and agreed to the conditions.

Jack and Chloe made their way up to the attic the following morning, where they planned on sorting through all of the family records and consolidating them in the correct order. Jack is horrified when he comes across the picture of a young woman wearing a nurse's uniform while sifting through various photographs. He vows not to look at any more photographs until they sort everything out, but Chloe manages to succeed in getting him to do so. After a long day of going through every record and organizing them correctly, they go to bed, exhausted, but are keen on continue cleaning the next day. It isn't until after they go to bed that they are whisked back in time to the last four months before the attack on Pearl Harbor in the year 1941. Jack immediately thinks this must be a bad dream, but Chloe realizes that they are in Hawaii, which will not become part of the United States until 1959 and they need someone to talk to because Chloe thinks that someone on this island might actually be able to help them. They soon meet Evelyn Dixon, a young nurse who had been stationed at Pearl Harbor only two months prior to Chloe and Jack arriving.

Chloe's newfound career as a nurse develops at an extremely fast rate and she soon oversees her own group of young nurses and trains them. Jack asks Evelyn to try and convince Chloe that she needs to take a break, but Chloe refuses and states that she can't abandon these new nurses to chance. Through Evelyn's joking, Jack then suggests for Chloe to walk with him after dark on the beach and she quickly warms up to this idea, but it also makes her uncomfortable that they have to hide their relationship from their superior officers. Soon after, Jack realizes that he hasn't stopped to consider that Chloe might actually be good at her new job and apologizes to her for overreacting at first and starts to kiss her passionately. Evelyn remarks that nothing can keep Chloe and Jack apart, which is why she warmed up to them so quickly when they first met. Also, after going against Kimmel's orders to have Chloe and Jack discharged from service, Evelyn decides to continue her friendship with Jack and Chloe and admits that she will do anything to keep their relationship alive.

After the attack on Pearl Harbor began on the morning of December 7, 1941, which included two attack waves on the island of Oahu, the naval hospital became flooded with so many wounded people that the staff quickly ran out of supplies. Chloe was forced to abandon her position when she heard that Jack was in trouble---with quick thinking, she put on a naval jumper and ran all the way out to the beach and swam out to see to rescue him. After doing so, she was shot in the leg by a Japanese soldier. Fearing for her safety, Jack scooped her up and took her to the naval hospital. When they arrived, Evelyn and two other nurses rushed Chloe into emergency surgery. Chloe nearly died in the process and lost vast amounts of blood. Seeing that the bullet is removed, Chloe kissed Jack one last time before her heart stopped beating, only to lie limp on the table. Quickly descending into grief, Jack resorted to doing CPR and injected her with a syringe filled with atropine mixed with adrenaline, which slowly restarted her heart.

While unconscious, Chloe experienced a dream where she saw her mother. During the dream, she had a conversation with her mother, and asked her if dying actually hurt. After telling Chloe that she should live on, Chloe felt her mother kiss her forehead before disappearing further into the field. At that moment, she woke up and was relieved when Jack's face greeted her after she opened her eyes. Shortly after her heart was restarted, Evelyn took Chloe to safety while Jack boarded a B-17 to pursue an aerial dogfight. Twenty minutes later, Evelyn called Chloe on the phone and informed her Jack had been brought to the naval hospital and she needed to come over immediately. Even more so, when she arrives, she breaks down crying when she sees that Jack has sustained multiple injuries and burns to his body.

While all of the staff was attending to Jack, Chloe somehow lost her self-control when the doctors were afraid that Jack would not make it; to which she demanded to see Admiral Short about this incident. In the meantime, she tried to coming to Jack's side, only to be pulled away by a few doctors. It was not until after Chloe was left in a room for an hour by herself that she found out that Jack was expected to survive. Eventually, she calmed down and was informed by Evelyn that Jack had been put in harm's way by Short. When Evelyn went to check on him, she noticed he was still unconscious and revived him, despite warnings from other doctors and nurses. When Jack asks where Chloe is, Evelyn quietly tells him that she never left his side.

A few hours later, Chloe and Jack thank Evelyn for stepping in to help when their lives were on the line. When Chloe learns that the events at Pearl Harbor will drag the United States into World War 2, Chloe tells Evelyn that Admiral Kimmel and Short need to resign for their lack of effort during the day's events and encourages her to tell it straight to President Roosevelt if she has to. Chloe leaves with Jack, imparting words of wisdom to Evelyn that she must be prepared in the coming years with the war and that she must do her best to save as many lives as possible.

When Chloe and Jack arrive back at Dixon Mansion shortly before Christmas, they agree to keep the whole time traveling incident out of the question, but Chloe accidentally lets it slip to her father anyway. Although James is not upset with them, he does understand it was purely accidental. Right as he's about to go to the library to do some light reading, Jack addresses the situation of Chloe moving in with him. James turns around to go into a speech, but can't really find the right words and asks Chloe if she wants to go through with this decision. When Chloe tells him she has already chosen to move in with Jack, her father decides that if she is happy then he can be too. Excited, Chloe rushes to hug her father and thanks him for stepping up to take care of her, but that she will always come to him if she needs to. When James goes into the library, Jack and Chloe are ecstatic with moving into their own place and they leave for Greenwich Village later that night. Several months later, Chloe returns to Dixon Mansion and informs her father and the staff she and Jack are engaged and are planning on getting married at the end of her time at Juiliard.

In the epilogue, Chloe speaks as an adult five years later. She is now married to Jack and they have a daughter whose name is Emma. She and Jack have settled in his apartment in Greenwich Village, where their daughter plays with several girls in the neighborhood. Chloe admits that Emma's world will change if she ever finds out the truth about learning the details of her parent's involvement with time travel, though she tries to not think about the negative effects it might have on her if she were to find out. Chloe continued to be affected by depression in the years following her grandparents' deaths. However, she tries to focus on the present rather than to be bothered by the traumatic experiences of her past. Although she knows that she will have to tell Emma once she is old enough to understand, Chloe is determined to try and distract herself from her worries by having her and Jack be a present figure in their daughter's life.

Chloe has a pale complexion and dark red hair that is thick and wavy. She has a broad forehead, narrow jaw, and a pointed chin. Her eyes are small and closely-spaced. Her nose is thin, and she had prominent cheekbones. It should also be noted that her lips are perfectly proportioned for her jawline.

Her eyebrows are darker than her hair and they have a medium arch. Her body is described as being slightly curvy, but not muscular. As for fashion, Chloe mostly prefers to wear layered clothing as she has a moderate interest in fashion.

Personality and Traits
Chloe is described as being exceptionally stubborn and sarcastic; however, she is also described as being kind-hearted and compassionate towards others. She cares very deeply for her family and will go to extreme lengths to protect them. She has a tendency to get anxious when she gets emotional mainly because of her concerns for other people's safety.

Having learned to take care of her mother while she was growing up, Chloe developed into a very mature person for her age. Even though she is socially awkward, she mostly prefers to spend her free time reading, practicing her ballet routines, and listening to music.

When it comes to fashion, Chloe is feminine in the way she dresses. She hates dressing up and feels uncomfortable in impractical and elegant clothes; however, her viewpoint changes when she does it on certain occasions and actually enjoys it once in a while. Chloe enjoys gifts from other people and doesn't really care if they are luxurious are not. She hates being singled out and prefers to celebrate her birthday rather than ignore it.

She prefers to voice her opinion when she comes up with her own solution to a problem and hates it when people dismiss her ideas, which is thought to be why Edward and Chloe never truly got along as a couple. Chloe is very brave and tends to face danger head-on, even if she is the one that caused it to happen.

She is also said to be a talented dancer just like her father. She keeps a pair of pointe shoes where she often dances away her emotions and feelings through movement, which is her version of a diary that she goes to in times of trouble.

Skills and abilities
Chloe possessed a skill of being a formidably talented investigator. While solving the mystery of her grandparents' murders, she discovered the truth despite all the attempts made to conceal it, with Jack generally providing background information while Chloe put the pieces together for a more coherent picture. Chloe also had a knack for spotting things that others did not, and had a sharp eye for details, as she was able to tell that Jack had been having an affair by the lack of correspondence between them.

Chloe showed resourcefulness in many different situations. In Haunted, Chloe was able to find the Master-at-Arms office on the Titanic despite the fact that it was flooding and she was able to pick the lock on Jack's handcuffs using a single hairpin. In Golden Girl, when sleeping with George Gershwin as a way to obtain information about Marjorie's plans, she used the power of seduction and was successful in using that tactic to get what she wanted. In Angel Wings, she came up with the plan of dressing up as a sailor and she decided to save Jack from drowning after the USS Missouri blew up during the attack on Pearl Harbor and took a bullet to save him.

Chloe appears to possess an unbreakable spirit and she has never truly given up on any mission. She has been shown to rise from defeat and loss even stronger than before. Her indomitable will is exemplified by her ability to stand up to her enemies and by the fact that she had never begged for mercy but has fought back in defiance.
