This maybe because Chrome is still running in background after you close the browser. Try to disable this feature by doing following:

1. Open chrome://settings/
2. Click "Show advanced settings ..."
3. Navigate down to System section and disable "Continue running background apps when Google Chrome is closed". This will force Chrome to close completely and then it will delete session cookies.

However, I think Chrome should check and delete previous session cookies at it starting instead of closing.
