135 Chapter 135

"You should see the defeated look in her eyes. This should be the first time Mr. Phoenix Gray rejected a woman here," the bar manager said.

Diamond sighed in relief. Of course, it was Vernon's right with whom he wanted to have sex.

But she wanted the best for her new best friend, Chloe. So, if she could deliver this big package to her without a dent, that'd be great!

After she paid it, Diamond returned to her car and saw Vernon closed his eyes, seemingly asleep.

Diamond put on a seatbelt for them both, and she drove through the night in New York, heading to the Phoenix Tower. She checked Vernon repeatedly and asked, "Mr. Phoenix Gray, are you asleep?"

"… Huh? I… Chloe…" Vernon murmured that name weakly, much to Diamond's excitement.

"Okay, he's not dead yet. I hope he can stay alive until we arrive at his apartment!"

Chloe sat on a couch in the living room. She only turned on a few dim lights while waiting for Vernon to return home.

She checked her phone to see whether Vernon had texted her, then checked the time;

"It's two hours past midnight already…." Chloe murmured. She was already asleep on the couch about an hour ago while waiting for Vernon to return home.

But Diamond suddenly rang her phone and told her to stay awake because she was taking a drunk Vernon home.

Though Vernon had already told her not to wait for him because he wanted to have fun in the bar, she still had this gut feeling that he'd return tonight.

So she waited patiently to ensure she'd help Vernon a bit while he was drunk.

What kind of help?

Well, taking his shoes and socks off, took off his shirt that might've been stained with drink, and helped him to drink a glass of water before sleeping. It was just simple aftercare that Chloe did to Vincent often when he came home drunk— though she could barely do those for him because Vincent would push or kick her while trying to help.

And that also didn't count the time when Vincent came home drunk as fuck, but with a random woman by his side.

Chloe sighed, the more she thought about her life with Vincent, the sadder she got, but that jerk filled ten years of her life, plus fifteen more years of her younger days when they were dating.

"Who would've expected the prince charming is actually a monster in disguise after he got married?" Chloe murmured.

She tucked her black satin night robe as she continued waiting. She didn't wear anything other than lingerie under the satin night robe. She liked sleeping bra-less because it felt stuffy at night wearing them, and she'd done it for so long since she was already sleeping in a different room when Vincent kept on bringing new women to their bedroom.

"Ah, it's fine. Vernon is dead drunk, after all. He won't see me wearing this," Chloe thought.

About fifteen minutes later, the bell from the main door rang. Chloe got up and loosely tied her night robe before walking to the main door.

She opened it slowly and peeked. She was surprised when she saw Diamond coming with Vernon, whom she propped on her shoulder. Her face was in a lot of pain, and she complained, "Girl— open the door. I'm supporting a literal gorilla here!"

"Ah, yes!" Chloe opened the door wide, and before she could do anything, Diamond suddenly pushed the big, muscular man towards Chloe.

"AH!"

The petite Chloe could not support Vernon, who was twice her size. She struggled and looked at Diamond, who was catching her breath."

"D—Diamond, help me! I can't carry him alone!"

"Oh, he's now your problem, gurl," Diamond said. "You should know that he hasn't touched any woman tonight."

"T—That doesn't matter—"

"Doesn't matter? Gurl, you're literally wearing a sexy night robe. You must've planned everything, right?" Diamond giggled happily. "Oh well, hope you can handle him. Good night, you two."

Diamond closed the door and left.

"Wait, Diamond— Ah, darn it!" Chloe was utterly hopeless now. Vernon was sleeping on top of her body. He was literally twice her size and was so big and heavy. She couldn't even move her body under his, alone carrying Vernon to his room.

Having no other way out, Chloe started slapping Vernon's cheeks lightly to wake him up, "Vernon, Vernon, wake up. You need to move to your bed."

There was no response from the big man. Vernon continued slapping his cheeks and tried to push his chest to no avail. In contrast, Vernon seemed very comfortable as his body got heavier.

Chloe decided to whisper in his ear, "Vernon, wake up, okay? You need to sleep in your bed. It's not good if you sleep here…."

Magically, Vernon opened his eyes in an instant. He put his palm between Chloe's head and pushed himself up.

He stared emptily at the woman under him. His gaze was blurry, but he was convinced that he heard his woman's voice whispering gently to his ear.

It took him a while, and when he finally got a clear view of the woman under him, his breath heaved instantly.

Chloe was relieved that Vernon seemed to have recovered a little. She gently placed her palm on his jaw and said, "Vernon, you need to get up and sleep in the bed, okay?"

…

Vernon was unresponsive, but he kept staring at her for a while until he suddenly murmured, "My woman."

"Eh?"

Vernon got up and lifted Chloe by grabbing her waist. He carried Chloe on his shoulder like a sack of potatoes, "LET'S GO TO BED!"

"EH?! AH! V—Vernon, put me down!" Chloe yelled. Now she was convinced that Vernon was so drunk that he didn't even recognize her.

Chloe tried to struggle to release herself from Vernon's shoulder and escaped.

"Vernon put me down! Put me— Ah, MY ROBE!" Chloe's night robe accidentally slipped and fell on the floor, leaving Chloe wearing nothing but her thin lingerie that barely covered her slit down there.
