92 Chapter 92

"You make me like this, and I will make sure you pay for it, sister-in-law!" Vernon said to himself. He was already planning the downfall of his big brother and sister-in-law for so long, and he didn't want everything to be ruined just because he got swept out by desire.

Malicious ideas swirled inside his head, and an insidious smirk perked on his lips, "I will—"

Gruuukkk…

However, before he could go on with his plan, his stomach started to grumble. He checked his watch and clicked his tongue annoyedly, "Oh, come on! It's only been half past ten. Why am I hungry already?!"

Vernon had magically developed a habit after having his breakfast-lunch-dinner prepared daily by a certain woman. His body would react at certain hours, asking to be fed. He was a troublesome picky eater, which made him too dependent on one woman's homemade food.

'',

"Fuck, what a killjoy," Vernon murmured. His immersion had been broken as his mind quickly switched to starving mode. He needed to eat something delicious to appease his anger. Then, he could assess the situation and devise a better plan to drag his sister-in-law to hell.

Vernon gritted his teeth, "I'll call my chef to cook something for me. There's no way I will eat that woman's cooking, not after she humiliated me like this!" Vernon snarled.

Gruuukkk…

However, when he imagined the food that his sister-in-law made, his stomach grumbled even more, and his picky tongue wanted to taste nothing but her food.

"Shit…" Vernon cursed. He was in a dilemma for a while, but before his stomach was sounded again, he made a quick decision, "Just this time, I'll enjoy her maid service until my plan has been fully set in motion."

Chloe was sitting stiffly on the sofa outside of Vernon's office. She was scared when she heard the sound of furniture being destroyed inside the office. She imagined Vernon unleashing his rage as he was thinking about that woman in his heart.

Chloe should be scared— of course, she was still scared whenever she heard him yelling and smashing something to appease his anger.

But, she pitied him at the same time.

She knew how painful it was to love someone so deeply, yet that person betrayed your trust and dragged you down to hell.

'I even had a child with that monster…' Chloe thought.

She always loved Mackie, but at the same time, she couldn't help to have pain in her heart whenever she saw Mackie smiling at her. Because it always reminded Chloe of the time when Vincent also smiled at her. They were father-daughter, after all, so they had similar facial features.

Chloe wanted to console Vernon to soothe his pain. She might not be much of a help, but she was willing to listen if it would calm him down.

'But I don't want to get beaten to death by him. He doesn't seem to tolerate any woman other than this particular girl in his heart,' Chloe thought, silently burying the urge to soothe her little brother-in-law.

…

"Girl, why are you here? Is it done already?"

Chloe looked up once she heard the voice of Diamond as she walked out of the elevator. She had just finished a few documents works in the other division. She approached Chloe and checked her from head to toe to ensure that Mr. Phoenix Gray didn't do too much to her or that she might actually throw her hands to protect her homegirl.

Because physical abuse wasn't part of the contract, and that was what Diamond held on tight, making sure that Chloe was safe despite having to service that beast as part of her job.

"Girl, were you hurt?" Diamond asked to make sure.

"A—Ah, not at all…." Chloe's cheeks reddened as she remembered what she did with Vernon inside that Velvet room just now, and she added shyly, "I—I like it, a bit…."

Diamond was relieved, and she commented, "This is not my line to cross, but if he physically hurt you during that, you must tell me, okay?"

"I—I will, thanks, Diamond…."

Diamond walked to her secretary's desk and put all the documents on the desk. She sat on her chair and commented lightly, "Well, I expected you to stay much longer with him, probably three hours at least."

"T—Three hours?!" Chloe gasped as she had never imagined having sex for three hours. The most she could get from Vincent was ten minutes, and eight minutes of those were just him commenting how disgusting her stretch marks were.

"This is Mr. Phoenix Gray we're talking about, after all," Diamond shrugged. "I pitied the girls who had sex with him because he is… uh… a marathoner instead of a sprinter, I guess?"

Chloe was still surprised by the three hours that Diamond mentioned. Because she spent like… thirty minutes playing with Vernon until he ejaculated, which was already impressive when you compared it with her ex-husband.

She was also surprised that Diamond could openly speak about her boss' sexual activity.

"Don't give me that look, girl," Diamond chuckled. "I've worked for him for two years, and I'm the one who provided those toys in the velvet room based upon his request, also checking the background of all the women he hooked up with. At some point, I've grown numb and adapted part of his devil-may-care attitude."

"I—I see…." Chloe still felt that the boss-secretary relationship between Vernon and Diamond was too outlandish, especially with how abnormal Vernon could be.

However, Chloe had to thank Diamond because how she reacted to the whole thing eased the tension in Chloe, making her a lot more relaxed.

"Anyway, do you like the Google assistant I just installed inside the Velvet room?" Diamond asked.

"Google assistant?"

"Yeah, so you can listen to music while you two are in it," Diamond replied. She leaned on her chair and added, "Geez, I also have to add a stereo speaker and better air conditioner inside that room. He really went all the way."
