Diamond was standing in front of the CEO\'s office door the whole time. She clenched her phone while biting her lower lip. She was so nervous, as she knew that the contract offered by Vernon was so unfair towards a billionaire\'s ex-wife like Chloe.

Two hundred thousand dollars a year at most, and Chloe would have to keep her budget tight, or that unreasonable 10x debt would hurt her in the long term.

\'Mr. Phoenix Gray is beyond stingy at this point. I feel like he is making this contract out of petty reason that I don\'t know,\' Diamond thought. \'But I doubt Chloe to offended him. She is so peaceful!\'

Diamond knew that Chloe was quite modest in her life, from how she brought herself and always checked the price before buying groceries. She was a lot more modest than a billionaire\'s wife should be.

But it was still unfair to put ten times the amount of Chloe\'s expenditure with that black card as debt.

\'Come on, girl, reject that contract, and I will help you somehow!\' Diamond wished in her heart.

,m Then… Chloe came out of the CEO\'s office. Their eyes met, and Chloe was surprised by Diamond\'s worried gaze.

Chloe carefully closed the CEO\'s office and heard a click, ensuring it was fully shut. She was so relieved and satisfied by the result of the contract.

She expected the worst from a devil like Vernon, but he was quite reasonable. As long as Chloe kept her expenditure tight, she could save a lot of money.

"Diamond, what are you doing— Ah!" Chloe wobbled when Diamond suddenly jumped towards her and hugged her tightly.

"Chloe, my homegirl! I\'m so sorry! I\'m so sorry that I cannot help you in any way! That guy is a total asshole!" Diamond wept as she poured all her empathy toward her friend Chloe. She tried her best to negotiate with Mr. Phoenix Gray, but that guy was seriously stubborn.

Chloe\'s eyes widened, and she whispered, "S—Shouldn\'t you speak lower? What if Vernon heard it?"

"Of course not. His office is soundproof unless the door is open!" Diamond said. She huffed and hugged Chloe tighter, "That guy is a serious bastard!"

Chloe chuckled and patted Diamond\'s back gently, "It\'s okay, Diamond. I\'m alright."

"What do you mean you\'re alright? You\'re signing an unfair contract! What the hell with that ten times the amount of debt you owe! He is not even a loan shark at this point. He is loan megalodon!"

"And I know that he is seriously rich. I\'m the one who helped him with many stuff! One million dollars is already pocket money for him, let alone two hundred thousand!"

Chloe listened to Diamond, who vented out her frustration. She was relieved that Diamond meant well. But she was absolutely fine— even happier than ever right now.

"Relax, Diamond, I\'ve read the term in the contract, and I\'ve signed it."

"You agreed with everything?!" Diamond separated herself and grabbed Chloe\'s arms. He shook the petite woman like a rag doll, trying to wake her up, "Oh my god, you DID NOT just sign your life to that devil, right?!"

"I—I did…."

Diamon was speechless. She was already planning 1001 ways to get Chloe out of this trap, so she could have her own life far from that asshole.

But now she signed her life away?

Diamond felt a little weak. She staggered to her secretary seat and sat as she tried to process what had happened.

Chloe didn\'t understand Diamond\'s concern because she thought there was nothing wrong with the contract.

"Are you concerned only because of ten times debt settlement from Vernon?"

"Of course! And the fact that you only got two hundred thousand dollars at most if you\'re being really frugal. That means you\'re not going to spend anything luxurious if you want to keep the money. It\'s ridiculous!" Diamond protested.

"I think two hundred thousand dollars is fine," Chloe smiled and sat on a chair in front of Diamond\'s desk. "I don\'t think you need to worry, Diamond."

"But— you\'re a billionaire\'s ex-wife! It will take a while to get used to this kind of frugal life! Even I can\'t be as frugal as that!"

"Eh, I\'m already used to it," Chloe replied. Now she understood why Diamond was so upset. "Don\'t worry, Diamond. I was much more frugal when I lived with Vincent. Two hundred thousand dollars is actually a lot for me."

"Wait, what?!" Diamond\'s eyes almost popped out of their sockets. To hear the billionaire\'s wife saying that two hundred thousand dollars were a lot of money, she must be living in a reverse world or something.

"Yeah, the most expensive thing I bought with Vincent\'s money for myself is a hundred-dollar dress, and he still shamed me for buying it, saying it doesn\'t fit my ugly ass at all…."

Diamond was again speechless by the revelation. The more she learned about Chloe, the more dedicated she was to helping her in any way.

"That billionaire Vincent… even shamed you for buying a 100 bucks dress?"

"Yeah…"

"Oh my god, is he that stingy?!"

"I don\'t think he is stingy. He often brought his side chicks to his yacht, toured them to his private island that my daughter nor I ever visited, and many more. He just doesn\'t want me to have good things or to feel satisfied with myself…." Chloe smiled bitterly whenever she remembered Vincent and all the bastardly things he did. "That\'s why he would shame me for buying a hundred bucks dress. It gave him satisfaction to pull me down, I guess…."

Chloe smiled at Diamond and held her hand, "Don\'t worry about me, Diamond. This is a big privilege for me, at least compared to what Vincent did to me. Vernon is like an angel at this point."

"That\'s because your standard is on the ground, girl. This is not even the bare minimum!" Diamond complained. She was seriously tired of those two brothers being jerks.
