342 Chapter 342

"But if you're interested in earning even more money with less work, you should come to my office. I have an open spot for you," Vincent offered.

Diamond swallowed her saliva after she heard the offer coming from Vincent Gray. She felt nothing but disgust because she knew this man was a red flag.

'I don't understand how that bitch secretary Priscilla looks so enamored in front of Vincent. You can see how much of a sex predator he is, even now,' Diamond thought.

She wanted to curse at this filthy pervert, but she also knew her position compared to him,

Thus she replied firmly but calmly, "Thank you for the offer, Mr. Gray, but I am bound by a contract with Mr. Phoenix Gray right now, and I have no intention of resigning."

"Besides, you already have a secretary that follows you around, is she not enough?" Diamond asked.

Vincent's amorous smirk vanished instantly when Diamond mentioned Priscilla.

He didn't like talking about it because he wanted to distance himself from a trashy condom bitch he kicked away.

"I fired her, she's just too loose and annoying for me," Vincent replied ruthlessly, much to Diamond's shock.

In her head, she thought that Vincent would at least keep that secretary because they seemed close, but it seemed that she underestimated the ruthlessness of this person.

"So, what about my offer?" Vincent smirked again as he leaned forward towards Diamond. "Do you want to work under me?"

Diamond instinctively avoided him by retreating her neck, ensuring at least enough safe distances between their faces.

She wanted to kick this guy in the nut and step on those balls to ensure he wouldn't do the same thing to other women.

But then again, she knew the difference in power between them.

Thus she glanced at Vernon, who walked towards them and then replied, "Mr. Gray, I have to refuse because I am still bound by contract with Mr. Phoenix Gray. You have to ask for his permission first."

"Oh? Hmm... You're right," Vincent looked over his shoulder and saw her Big brother staring at him with his sharp hawk-like gaze. He seemed to be unhappy with what he was doing right now.

Vincent's smirk deepened when he saw the unhappiness that was rarely portrayed on Vernon's face and asked, "Can I get your secretary, Little bro? I just fired my secretary because I was bored of her. Maybe a different taste will help."

Vernon felt a burning rage in his heart. He checked on Diamond to see whether Diamond was happy with it. When he realized that Diamond was pleading for help, Vernon had to step up and protect her.

Because Diamond was his friend, despite both of them not acknowledging it, he knew that Diamond was his true partner-in-crime.

Thus he replied firmly;

"I cannot give her, Big bro."

"Why not? This secretary of yours doesn't seem to mind my advance," Vincent claimed.

Diamond's eyes widened when she heard, 'Bitch, you think I do not mind? Oh, I'm so close to kicking you in the nuts!'

Vernon shook his head, "Diamond is an important secretary of mine. I cannot give her to you."

"Even if that means you have to refuse your Big brother's request?" Vincent asked. This time, the viper eyes stared at the hawk, ready to bite if Vernon dared to fight him.

Vernon knew the risk, but there was no way he would let his Big bro hurt Diamond, "I can find another woman for you, but not her."

Vincent was obviously angry that his Little bro dared to defy him. He was so used to seeing Vernon obedient, and when he fought back, Vincent wouldn't lie that he felt an indescribable anger in his heart.

He scoffed and released Diamond. He turned to face Vernon, who kept staring at him with hostility;

"Don't be so angry at me, Little bro. I was just asking. See? I released your secretary after you said no," Vincent said. The punchable smirk that made Vernon's blood boil was still pasted on Vincent's lips as if he saw everything like a game.

"But you shouldn't be that protective towards your belonging. Who knows I might want them in the future. What'd happen if I say that I want your girlfriend for a night? Would you punch your Big bro?"

Vernon's whole body trembled. He couldn't control his facial expression at this point, and he tried to grip his thighs just to ensure he didn't raise his fist and punch the shit out of his Big bro.

Vincent was amused by Vernon's reaction, and he laughed heartily while slapping Vernon's shoulder, "Hahahaha! Relax, Little bro. I'm just messing around with you!"

"I know that you seem to treasure your girlfriend so much, so I won't do a thing," Vincent said. He turned around, ready to walk away, "Unless you give me permission, of course."

Vincent walked away after he had successfully tormented his little brother. He was quite in a good mood when he realized that Vernon must be so angry.

'Heheh, he's so cute,' Vincent thought. 'I was just messing around with him, and he got all triggered and angry. I guess he is still the same little Vernon who got angry when Chloe spent time with me.'

Vincent remembered how possessive his Little bro was to Chloe. He would follow her everywhere when she came to the mansion and even insisted on guarding the door when Chloe went to the bathroom.

'Well, it was cute at first. But it became a nuisance as he grew to be a teenager,' Vincent thought. 'Which is why I had to get rid of him when he was still a teenager.'

Vernon watched his despicable Big bro enter the elevator and throw the last smile at him before the elevator door closed.

...

...

There was a choking silence in the area since only Diamond and Vernon were on this meeting floor right now.

Diamond took a deep breath to calm herself and then checked at her boss, "Sir?"

Vernon's body was still trembling. The rage he felt hadn't dissipated at all.

He clenched his fist until it was white and then punched the door.
