25 Chapter 25

Chloe stayed inside the CEO's room for a while to collect herself. She sat on the same seat, staring at the executive chair for a time until she heard the door getting knocked from outside.

She looked over her shoulder and saw Diamond open the door and walk in with a cup of tea. The secretary approached Chloe and slowly put the cup of tea in front of Chloe, "You should drink this, Mrs. Gray. Mr. Phoenix Gray must've been going wild on you," Diamond said with sympathetic eyes towards Chloe.

Chloe looked at Diamond and asked, "Did you know what is inside that room?"

"Yes, I do."

"So he has used that room with so many women before?"

"Not many, just women that Mr. Phoenix Gray found interesting," Diamond said. "He has many flings in the past, but he only took a certain female demographic inside that room."

"Certain female demographic?"

"I cannot disclose the information, Missus," Diamond said.

Chloe instantly imagined all those toys being used by so many women, and it would get inside her. She shuddered out of fear and disgust. Who would've expected that Vernon had such a disgusting hobby and also switched with so many women?

'Isn't he afraid of STDs?' Chloe thought.

Diamond sensed what was on Chloe's mind just by looking at the disgust on her face, so she cleared up a little misunderstanding, "Don't worry about the props, Mrs. Gray. Mr. Phoenix Gray always replaced all the props with brand new ones every time he switched partners."

,m "Really?"

"Yes, so you don't need to worry about STDs. He is clean as well," Diamond gave out more than enough information. But she pitied Chloe so much, knowing that she would have to face Mr. Phoenix Gray's torment.

Though, she fabricated one piece of information; Mr. Phoenix Gray was not someone who would treat a random woman with care and gentleness. He never actually replaced the props he had inside that room; until yesterday. Diamond had to replace the whole props down to the bed under the order of the demon CEO yesterday.

Mr. Pheonix Gray didn't say anything about why they had to replace everything inside his Velvet room, but he just told Diamond to replace everything with brand new, so it would be clean.

Unfortunately, Mr. Phoenix Gray forbade her to say anything to Chloe. This was already the stretch she could do without igniting Mr. Phoenix Gray's wrath.

Chloe was a little relieved that Vernon wasn't a complete nasty man like she expected. But still, changing partners like it was nothing— that kind of thing must've been a genetic trait of the Grays.

"Anyway, Mrs. Gray—"

"You… can call me Chloe…." Chloe said. She felt a little uneasy that Diamond would refer to her as Mrs. Gray because she was in the divorce process with Vincent.

"Ah, that would be impolite of me," Diamond refused. "Mr. Phoenix Gray said you need to be addressed as Mrs. Gray."

…

"You can call me Chloe in private then," Chloe said.

"That's… fair," Diamond hesitated a bit. But Chloe seemed to be more comfortable with her name rather than being addressed as 'Mrs. Gray.'

"Well, Chloe, Mr. Phoenix Gray already told me you accepted his term, right?" Diamond asked.

"Yes…"

"That means I can give you this," Diamond fished out something from her blazer pocket and put them on the table.

Chloe stared at the items on the table. Obviously, she knew what they were, but she wasn't sure why would Diamond put them in front of her, "And this is for?"

"It's office facility," Diamond said. She pointed at a car key, "There is a car for you in the VIP parking spot. It's a silver Bentley Continental GT. You can show the key to the security guard in the lobby, and he will lead you to your new car."

"What?!" Chloe's eyes widened. She didn't know that she'd get an office facility. But even if she got one, why would it need to be a luxury car?!

But Diamond didn't let her speak as she continued explaining;

"And for those two—" Diamond pointed at two cards, one white with a name on it, and the other one…

—White card—

"The white card is a card key for your new apartment in Phoenix Tower. It's on floor 20, room number 2," Diamond explained. "And for the black card… it's Mr. Phoenix Gray's black card. He issued one more card for you, so you can use his credit card for the necessary purchase."
