Vernon was surprised by Diamond\'s daredevil attitude. He didn\'t expect her to take the initiative to solve this problem, and he believed there must be a reason for it.

"You\'re usually not as eager as this," Vernon commented.

"Yes, I have my own reason, Sir," Diamond said. "It\'s a private matter. But let\'s just say that she did something I hate the most in this world."

"I see. Well, as long as you did the job, then I have nothing more to ask," Vernon said.

"Consider it done, Sir. I will make sure a nasty woman like her won\'t be around for long," Diamond said. "Now, please excuse me."

Diamond turned around and walked to the door.

Vernon watched Diamond\'s back as she was leaving. He was still surprised by Diamond\'s reaction to this problem. She reacted as if she had a personal beef with Shailene, and what Shailene did actually offended her so much.

\'There must be something that I don\'t know about her,\' Vernon thought. \'Well, as long as she gets the job done, then I have nothing to worry about. She is competent.\'

Vernon continued working nonstop until his phone suddenly rang. He frowned, and with his eyes still on the laptop, he picked up the call without checking the caller;

-

"Hello?"

"Ah, um… Vernon, it\'s me…."

Vernon paused for a moment when he heard the sweet voice of his beloved woman. She must\'ve called him using the cable telephone.

​ He abandoned his work immediately and cleared his voice to sound gentler;

"Yes, what is it… Chloe?" Vernon said. He was about to call her \'love,\' but he wondered if it would sound too awkward right now.

"What are you doing right now?" Chloe asked.

Vernon thought Chloe was just worried about him, and her concern instantly melted his heart. He was fighting his urge to come home as soon as possible and continued did something fun together.

"I\'m just working as always. Why do you ask? Do you miss me already?" Vernon chuckled. "Do you want me to come home earlier?"

"Um, yeah, I want you to come home earlier. You told me that I have to wait until you\'re home, then we can discuss Mackie\'s transfer…."

"Oh—" Chloe\'s answer wiped the grin off Vernon\'s face. He really thought that Chloe was missing his presence and couldn\'t wait to meet him.

Turned out it was just Vernon\'s wishful thinking.

As his expectation was crushed, Vernon\'s mood also got ruined.

"Alright, I\'ll go home now. Do you want something for dinner?" Vernon asked nonchalantly.

"Mackie and I already had our dinner, I\'ll just wait for you," Chloe said before she hung up the call.

Beep.

—

Vernon clicked his tongue. He shouldn\'t have that kind of expectation that Chloe would act so sweet and spoiled in front of him, though he would be thrilled to see her acting spoiled at least once.

He checked the time and sighed, "I overworked myself again today."

Thus, he stuffed a few important documents and his laptop into his briefcase and walked out of his office.

**

Vernon used his fingerprint to unlock the penthouse door. He looked around to check on Chloe but saw no sign of her around the penthouse.

"Huh, where is she?" Vernon wondered. "Maybe she falls asleep after waiting for too long?"

Vernon tossed his briefcase on the sofa. He went to the kitchen for a glass of water and continued looking around in case Chloe might be sleeping somewhere.

He continued searching until there was only one place where he hadn\'t checked.

"Wait, don\'t tell me that she is…."

Vernon started breathing heavily as his fantasy told him that Chloe was in his bedroom, sleeping on his bed, preferably naked.

"Oh fuck!" Vernon felt his cock twitch and quickly swole until his trousers got tight. He rushed to his bedroom, thinking Chloe was waiting for him with only lingerie— or even naked. Both were good choices for him!

Vernon opened the bedroom door and turned on the light, "Chloe—Oh…."

Vernon was disappointed to see his empty bed. He wished a body was hiding under his blanket, like a gift ready to be unwrapped. He would pull the blanket and enjoy his gift after a tiring day at work.

"Heh, what am I thinking anyway? Of course she won\'t be here after we had such a terrible fight," Vernon said. He sat at the edge of the bed. He took off his suit and threw it on the floor.

He loosened his tie and lay on the bed, staring at the ceiling while contemplating all the shit that went down today.

"Ah, I fucked up badly. I got crazy and shouted at her so many times…." Vernon confessed. "Things would\'ve been handled much better had Chloe told me about Dorothea sooner, though…."

Vernon closed his eyes. He was about to fall asleep due to exhaustion.

As his consciousness slowly drifted away, he heard a click from the door. He opened his eyes instantly, and his eyes met with Chloe, who also had the same startled expression as his.

"Ah— V—Vernon, you came home earlier than I thought," Chloe said. She was wearing pajamas as usual, but that didn\'t stop Vernon from looking at her. She was the most beautiful woman on earth.

He got up and sat on the bed, staring at Chloe silently as she entered the bedroom and closed the door behind her.

She leaned on the door and asked, "Should we start the discussion now?"

…

Honestly, Vernon didn\'t like how formally Chloe acted.

She acted as if they were just friends, even though they could call themselves lovers at this point.

Heck, they could call themselves husband and wife, and Vernon would be the first one to celebrate!

"Where have you been?" Vernon asked. "I thought you said that you\'ll wait for my arrival."

"I\'m downstairs. Didn\'t I tell you today that I won\'t be going upstairs unless there is something important, it\'s an agreement we had after our fight, remember?"
