"Scrap that agreement. You should come to the penthouse and live here with Mackie instead," Vernon said. He was annoyed but tried not to be too obvious about it.
"Are you sure? Does that mean we're on a truce? Can I get my phone then?" Chloe asked. She stretched her hand and opened her palm, ready to accept her phone in Vernon's possession.
"Hey, hey! I'm just allowing you to live in the penthouse! The bet is still on, and your phone is still in my possession until we get to see what Dorothea will do!"
"Alright then," Chloe nodded. "Then, should we talk about Mackie's transfer? The school will start tomorrow, so I'm thinking if I should come with Mackie and talk to the Principal about her transfer."
"No need," Vernon said. "I've told my friend working in the school to handle the transfer."
"Huh? Handling the transfer?" Chloe frowned. "You mean, I don't need to come to the school?"
"You two shouldn't come to that wretched school anymore. It's under Vincent's control, and he obviously has complete control over everyone there, including the Principal."
"If you tell the Principal about Mackie's transfer, I'm afraid that she will notify Vincent, and he will hold you hostage inside the school again," Vernon said. He seemed to have prepared everything beforehand to keep Chloe and Mackie safe.
"But, what would happen if the principal finds out about your friend?" Chloe asked. "Wouldn't that put her in danger?"
"She is a professional. I told her to be careful so that the old Principal won't sniff it out," Vernon assured. "But even if my friend finds it impossible to move Mackie's document. We can just make new documents for Mackie."
Vernon rubbed his thumb and index together and smirked, "Money talks, don't worry about documents and such. I can get it done."
"Now, what you need to do is to survey new schools for Mackie. I told Diamond this evening to start finding a few private schools that are good for Mackie. There might be less students, but they are all heirs of the elites," Vernon said. "You're going with Diamond to some of those schools to see if it would fit Mackie."
"And don't worry about safety, naturally that is on the top of my list," Vernon added. He was so well prepared for everything that Chloe was left speechless.
"W—Well, since you have prepared everything for Mackie, then I guess I can go downstairs to rest," Chloe said. "Thank you, Vernon."
…
Vernon stared at her with a deep frown. He crossed his arms in front of his chest like he was about to throw a tantrum soon.
"Is that it?" he asked.
"Huh?"
"Is that how you show gratitude? With only a thank you?" Vernon sneered. "Do you know how hard it is to convince my friend to help me with Mackie's documents? And how about all the calls I have to make to make sure that I can give the safest options for Mackie's new school? It's so exhausting."
"Uh… I'm sorry that you feel that way. What can I do to express my gratitude?" Chloe asked.
Vernon said nothing, but he pouted his lips slightly. Chloe quickly caught what he wanted. She grinned and teased, "Well, what do you want? I won't understand unless you say it."
"Damn it! Kiss me like before! Smooch my lips like you want me!" Vernon demanded. He was ashamed to have demanded this, but it was better to say what he wanted and get ashamed now than to regret it for the whole night because he could not get the kiss he wanted.
Chloe giggled.
She walked towards Vernon until she stood between his thighs. She looked down, and he looked up until their eyes met.
"It's just a kiss. Why do you have to demand it that badly? Is it different from our usual kiss?"
"It's goddamn different!" Vernon insisted. "I like it when you kiss me. I love it when you insert your tongue and take the initiative. I fucking love every second of it!"
Vernon's bold statement pleased Chloe to no end. She sat on Vernon's thigh and pinched his chin. She turned Vernon's head towards her and grinned, "Say no more, Big boy."
"Hmph…" Vernon closed his eyes when Chloe gave him another deep kiss, just like she gave him this morning.
The only difference was with how he immediately reacted and enjoyed every second of the kiss that Chloe gave. She nibbled on his lips, and Vernon instinctively wrapped his hands around her waist, feeling up the body he wanted to touch every day.
"Chloe…" Vernon called his beloved's name amidst their kiss. He opened his eyes slowly during the kiss, trying to peek at Chloe's beautiful features.
But he was shocked when he saw Chloe had her eyes wide open the whole time.
She winked at him, and Vernon's heart pumped more blood around his body. He was about to pass out just because of a wink.
Vernon tightened his arms around Chloe's waist to pull her deeper. He opened his mouth and their tongues started dancing into each other's mouths. Sometimes it was him that explored her mouth. Sometimes it was her turn to do the same in his mouth.
"Fuck, this is so hot," Vernon said after they halted their passionate kiss for a moment to catch their breaths. He was about to start again with the kiss, but Chloe covered his lips with her hand to stop him.
"Nu-uh, you've had enough," Chloe said.
Vernon frowned. He was already on cloud nine, and now he wanted more!
"Why not?" he asked. "Obviously, we both like it, right?"
"Yes, we do. But I'm afraid we will do something more if we kiss again," Chloe said. She looked down for a second, pointing at Vernon's bulge. It was so obvious that his big cock wanted to ram inside a hot pussy right now.
Vernon gritted his teeth, "And why is that wrong? I have been wanting it for a while. I just don't want to do it yet because you're still recovering from bulimia!"
