Chloe, an outsider at Salem High is often referred to as "Ghoul Girl". She becomes friends with Shawn-Douglas Brady, and Belle Black. They put an end to Chloe's torture with bullies. Chloe begins to date the wealthy Philip Kiriakis, until learning it was all because of a bet. Philip wanting Chloe back, does everything possible to win her back. The two fall in love again, but it is short lived, when Brady Black comes to town. Chloe immediately bonded with Brady, and the two were in love with the opera. Chloe still dating Philip, assures him that nothing is going on between them. Brady, and Chloe's relationship begins to grow closer, causing more tension in Philip and Chloe's relationship. Philip attempts to sabotage Brady to make it look like he is a thief, Chloe ends her relationship with him and pursues one with Brady.
Meanwhile, Chloe is diagnosed with leukemia, and with the help of Brady searches for her birth father to provide her with bone marrow. Chloe survives when her sister, Joy, is born and proves to be a match. Shortly after, Chloe leaves town to pursue her dream of being an opera singer. Her relationship with Brady suffers from it. Brady is about to confront Chloe about ending their relationship, when Chloe is in a horrible car accident, her face was disfigured. Disgusted with her scars, she makes Brady believe she is dead. She does so for many months, until Brady finds out she is alive. Chloe gets several reconstructive surgeries, restoring her face to its original beauty. Chloe reveals her new face to Brady, at their wedding. After they are married, Chloe and Brady move to Vienna so Chloe can once again pursue her passion for opera singing.
Chloe pops back up in Salem in 2007, without Brady. She begins to rekindle her friendship with Belle, Shawn, and Philip. Brady comes back to town, revealing that he has a drug addiction, and that is why he and Chloe broke up. Chloe pursues a relationship with Lucas Horton, but it ends when she cheats on him with Daniel Jonas. Chloe eventually began a relationship with Daniel Jonas.
Daniel and Chloe were engaged, but their relationship was complicated when Daniel's friend, Carly Manning, came to town, and they discovered that Daniel had fathered Carly's daughter, Melanie. The situation was only complicated when Chloe had a hysterical pregnancy and was told that she would probably never have a child. One night, having been tricked by Vivian Alamain to think that Carly and Daniel were having an affair, Chloe turned to Philip. The two slept together and when Chloe later learned she was pregnant, she did not know if the father was Daniel or Philip.
Test results confirmed that Philip was the father of Chloe's baby yet Caroline Brady had changed the results so Chloe believed that Daniel was the father of her baby without telling Daniel of the affair. Chloe and Daniel married on October 14, 2010. Chloe gave birth to a son, Parker, on November 11, 2010.
On the day of Parker's baptism, Caroline revealed that she had switched the test results. Philip was Parker's father. Daniel was heartbroken and left Chloe. Unable to deal with the pain of losing Daniel, Chloe slipped deep into depression and tried to commit suicide. Social services made Chloe sign over full custody to Philip. In attempt to help his friend get better, Philip moved Chloe into the Kiriakis mansion with Parker so Philip and Chloe could raise their baby together.
Chloe's mental health was still fragile and during a drunken rant to Kate, Chloe threatened to take Parker and no one would ever see him again. Fearful that she would make good on her threats, Philip took Parker and moved to Chicago. Chloe tried to get herself together by giving voice lessons to students in Salem and petitioning the court for supervised visits with Parker. She was even granted one visit and got to see Parker.
Chloe met a handsome stranger named Quinn, who she hooked up with, later finding out that he had taped the encounter and used it to blackmail her into prostitution. Quinn had been hired by Kate Roberts to ruin Chloe's life and keep her away from Parker. However her call girl days end when she was beated up by Gus and was in an second coma (although it was shorter this time) and went to Chicago with Kinsley keeping her "job" an secret from the Authories of Salem with the help of Brady and Nicole, Kinsley.
