Chapter 641 641

Vincent squinted to see the screen because Maria said the severe problem was caused by Vernon. Which he thought was something ridiculous because his Little brother worshiped him so much, there was no way he'd try to backstab him.

Once Vincent regained some of his consciousness, he saw the trending topic of the day. It was not the video of Chelsea's joker-like face anymore, but it might as well be.

The trending topic of the day was a picture of a popular make-up guru with lipstick smeared around her cheek. The make-up guru grinned devilishly, and the tagline of that picture was:

-

A beautiful mess.

-

It was the same tagline that Vincent wanted and the same make-up guru and pose that he liked.

But the timing of this ad was absolutely wrong. Because everyone was still talking about that joker lady in the video. They were laughing at her, and also Vincent because Chelsea--the joker lady, claimed that she was the future wife of Vincent Gray.

So when everyone on the internet saw this ad, they were instantly reminded of that Joker lady with a scar across her cheek. They knew the Gray company had developed this new make-up brand, so when Vincent checked the comments, it was full of ridicule. It pushed one hashtag that everyone used to laugh at his relationship with Chelsea.

'Omg, did you see the new lipstick ad? I bet Vincent Gray is seriously in love with that crazy woman! #VincentandJoker is real!'

'LOL! #VincentandJoker went viral, I wonder what kind of wedding they will do? Maybe a Batman and Joker theme? Vincent as the groom wearing Batman suit, and that crazy lady will be wearing a joker suit.'

'Ahahaha! I bet the bride will be using the lipstick from the ad, since it fits her so much!'

'Oh, that makes me wonder, why does Vincent Gray need to hire a popular make-up guru when he can just hire his soon-to-be wife as the model in the ad? She fits perfectly well, that woman is a mess, but not beautiful!'

'Oh, that's true! I bet that crazy lady is head over heels right now, because her boyfriend, Vincent Gray is making an ad just for her!'

'Anyway, I don't want to buy that lipstick or any of the make-up kits from the company. It always reminds me of the video from yesterday, when that crazy joker lady is screaming and shouting like crazy.'

'Same, I won't buy that. Maybe they should advertise this product for those who want to do Joker cosplay?'

'LOL, that crazy lady from the video doesn't even need to do cosplay. Just smear the lipstick all over her scar and she'll be the best Joker ever! Even better than Heath Ledger!'

'LOL!'

'Hahaha!'

'LMAO!'

Vincent's body shook as he kept reading the comments while Maria patiently scrolled down on her phone. She wanted to make sure that she got a good reaction from Vincent.

The angrier he got, the better he would clean this whole mess.

'I want him to go absolutely insane about this whole thing, so he is angry enough to chop his pesky brother's head, and takes the swift action to find and kill Dorothea and Chloe, maybe he should kill his daughter too so he won't have anymore emotional baggage,' Maria thought. 'Vincent can be a debauched man who fucks every woman he found as long as that can help him to be a good CEO. The company is going down at this point.'

"There are so many comments laughing at you, saying that you're an idiot. The ad has also been posted in Times Square's billboard. You will see many people posting about the billboard ad in Times Square and laughing at you in Tiktok and Instagram."

"You've become the butt of the jokes now, Vincent Gray," Maria said while tormenting Vincent. She had been working with Mr. Vaughn Gray and his descendant long enough to know which button to push so Vincent would do what she wanted him to do.

Vincent imagined everyone who laughed at him. They must be ridiculing him because he wasn't as perfect as they thought.

They would see that he was just a regular man with many flaws, and they wouldn't shower him with praise.

But the worst of all...

Vincent imagined Chloe laughing at him. He imagined her looking at him as if she was higher, better and had more power than him.

Vincent clenched his fists as he was drowned inside his own fantasy.

'That stupid bitch must be looking down on me right now. She must be laughing her ass off at my failure while she's being embraced by another man,' Vincent thought. He started gnashing his teeth, wondering what he should do to zip her mouth. He couldn't wait to punch that bitch's face because she dared to look down on her. 'Don't you dare you look at me as if you're better than me, Chloe! You're my woman, you're supposed to be below me!'

Maria's eyes peered as she stared at Vincent, who looked so pissed off. It seemed that Vincent was thinking about something, and Maria guessed it must be about Chloe.

Vincent might never admit it, but Maria knew Vincent was obsessed with Chloe. He was obsessed with keeping Chloe by his side, suppressing her until she was barely a human, and then tormenting her every day so he could see her cry.

It was a hellish cycle for Chloe, but Maria didn't care about that.

'What's the problem with sacrificing the happiness of one insignificant woman? Chloe's sole use is to be Vincent's punching bag, so Vincent can be a good CEO that can develop and maintain his late father's company. The sacrifice of one insignificant woman is nothing compared to the lives of thousands of people employed by the Gray company.'

Maria was pissed off because Chloe was shirking her duty to be Vincent's punching bag, 'I got to torment Vincent even more, so he will find Chloe faster. I refuse to let the company go down.'
