Chapter 383 383

"Well, this is getting very interesting. Let's see what will happen next, my wife, Chloe Gray."

Vincent had never experienced such fun times with Chloe before. All he did was abuse her, and her shine gradually disappeared over ten years.

Now that he would fight against Chloe and her new trash man, things got ten times more interesting.

"It's okay. I'll give them time to prepare," Vincent said. "Though, it doesn't really matter. I will eventually crush them both and take my rightful wife back to the mansion, where she truly belongs."

Vincent started the car engine and was about to leave the hospital when his phone rang. He checked the caller and raised his brow when he saw the name.

Thus, he picked up the call;

-

"Hello?"

"Ah— Mr. Gray!"

"Yes, what is it, Mrs. Andrew?" Vincent asked the old principal from Mackie's school. She acted like an informant for Vincent, ensuring Mackie would stay in a hostile environment.

So far, she had fired at least two teachers who tried to help Mackie against her bullying case, something that Vincent tried to maintain because it would shape Mackie's personality so she would be bullied nonstop and stand up for herself, just like a real Gray. He also used this to pressure Chloe, knowing that Chloe would do anything for their daughter.

It was two birds with one stone, and Vincent found it effective.

"Mr. Gray, this is about the autumn festival in the school."

"Oh yeah, what about it?"

"You asked me if Mrs. Gray will come, right?" Mrs. Andrew checked the parent submission paper on her desk and nodded after assuring herself. "I got the submission paper. Mrs. Gray will come during the autumn festival."

Chloe and Vernon's relationship became a little awkward after that night, a few days passed, and they were still unable to communicate appropriately.

Even now, in front of Mackie, who was eating her breakfast as usual. They were still trying to avoid each other's eyes, and the usual fun breakfast time became so quiet, which made the little girl uncomfortable.

Thus, Mackie breaks the silence first by addressing the elephant in the room, "Uncle! Mommy! You two look so nervous! What happened?"

"Nothing, that's just your imagination," Vernon said.

"T—That's true. There's nothing wrong, dear…." Chloe added.

"No-no! That's lying!" Mackie confronted. "Uncle is eating so slowly, and Mommy is not eating at all! Usually Uncle would eat so fast, and when Mommy is not eating, Uncle will pester Mommy until she eats!"

Both Chloe and Vernon went silent after that. They didn't know how to lie when Mackie was so direct about it.

She was only seven years old, but damn she was perceptive.

Vernon glanced at Chloe first, and his heartbeat started accelerating almost instantly. He lowered his head and ate his breakfast slowly again. It was his way of prolonging their time together.

Because it had been a few days, and Chloe was still trying to avoid him for some reason.

'Did I do it too much on her that night? All I did was play with her pussy, it's nice to play anyway,' Vernon thought, as it was the only answer he could get in his head.

He was also trying to hold himself because he kept getting a hard-on whenever he saw Chloe. Whether she was wearing her pajama or office attire, his cock instantly went up whenever he saw her.

Meanwhile, Chloe was too embarrassed to face Vernon. She realized that she was sexually attracted to Vernon and couldn't even deny it.

Because whenever Vernon was around, she felt hot all over her body. She also had vivid memories whenever Vernon played with her body.

And she found it… strange.

She knew that they had no blood relation at all. But she had been raising Vernon ever since he was eight years old. She always saw him as a big baby she had to take care of, and she did it willingly.

'Until I realized I might enjoy his touch a bit too much. I should've realized that we should keep it strictly work-related….'

'Now I don't know what to feel about him. Being sexually attracted to the person I raised for about seven years… am I considered a pedophile? A groomer? I don't know…' Chloe wondered herself.

Still, no matter what, she believed that Vernon deserved someone better than her.

Someone who would make him feel at ease.

Someone who would make him truly lust for that woman, and that woman only.

Someone who would become why he kept working every day because he wanted to give her a good life.

'I don't know if he will ever find that woman if I keep staying here, disturbing his private life and making it hard for him to make a new relationship….'

Mackie continued checking on the two awkward lovebirds and yelled again, "Uncle, go feed Mommy!"

"What?!" Vernon raised his head immediately. He stared at his feisty niece, who could spout the boldest thing ever.

"Mommy, go sit on Uncle's lap!" Mackie continued ordering like she was a little queen.

"D—Dear, that's…"

"Do it, Mommy! I will be having rehearsal today with Mr. Peterson and my friends for the drama! I want to be in a good mood!"

Under the little queen's demand, Chloe had to do it because she didn't want to ruin her daughter's mood during this crucial time.

So she got up from her chair and slowly walked toward Vernon, who dropped his spoon as soon as Chloe started walking toward him.

He looked up when Chloe stood in front of him, and his jaw dropped out of shock. He simply couldn't fathom how they obeyed a seven-year-old girl who ordered them around.

"E—Excuse me, Vernon…." Chloe's cheeks reddened as she slowly sat sideways on Vernon's strong lap. She made sure to make a gap between her thighs and Vernon's crotch, knowing how big it was and it would get even bigger once he got hard.
