"Obviously!" Vincent raised his voice. He was subconsciously angry whenever he imagined someone else was kidnapping his wife and daughter. "I don't want her to get beaten by someone else, it has to be me!"

Vernon's lips twitched for a second, but he kept his cool and continued, "Then, I think it's best to keep my Sister-in-law and my niece's identity hidden for now. I don't think they're going that far. It'll be difficult for them to leave since my sister-in-law has no family outside of New York."

"Hmm, you're right," Vincent said. "Then what should we do to find them? I don't really care about that little girl, but I really need to make sure that Chloe is still around, so it won't be hard to take her back when I feel like it."

"Have you found any clues about the benefactor?" Vernon asked. "I gave you the list before."

"I'm trying to weed them out. But it seems that you're wrong with your list, Vernon. I investigated them one by one, but they don't have anything suspicious against me," Vincent replied. He then had a meaningful smile as he stared at his Little bro. "You know, you're actually the one who is most suspicious."

Vernon was surprised, but it wasn't acting right now.

He was genuinely surprised at how easily Vincent could sniff some of his activity, "Me? Why? Did I do something wrong Big bro?"

"Well, it's just a report from Maria, of course," Vincent said. "She sent me a report of you working with two more of my business partners after Gregory Maxwell. I don't take it seriously, because I know that you just want to expand your business through my connection. But I'm also curious."

"Curious? About what?" Vernon frowned. "Big bro, you already got the answer. I'm just trying to expand my business, and using your connection is the easiest way to do it. I'm just using the resources I have in hand."

"I know that. But I also know that you don't actually need my connection," Vincent leaned back while observing Vernon's expression. "You can build your own company without my help, so what makes you change your mind now."

Vernon sighed, "I hate to admit this but… I just want to feel closer to you, Big bro. I also want to feel closer to the family, because my relationship to all of them are very estranged right now."

"Besides, it would take me a long time to gather business partners, especially powerful ones. So why would I waste my time when I have a powerful Big bro I can rely on? I'd rather follow your footsteps so I can be as good as you, Big bro!"

Vincent felt so much better after listening to his Little brother praising him to the moon and back, and he also aspired to be like him.

Vincent stretched his arm and patted Vernon's head, "That's good. It's good that you aspire to be like me. That means you truly have the Gray family blood in you."

"Don't worry about Maria's report. She's always suspicious with everyone, that's why she always sends me any kind of report regarding the movement of all my business partners, including you."

Vernon was relieved that it wasn't hard to actually please Vincent. All he needed to do was stroke his ego, and his Big bro wouldn't question him further, and Vernon had mastered the art of making his Big brother happy.

"Well, it's fine, Big bro. I get that you can be suspicious of me. But we have something more urgent to work on right now," Vernon said as he shifted the topic. "What about sister-in-law and Mackie? What should we do to find her now?"

"Hmmm, I can set up a manhunt to find them. But I don't think it's worth all the hassle," Vincent said. "Do you have any suggestions?"

"I do, but that means you will have to rely on me too, Big bro," Vernon said.

"Oh, do tell me. I don't mind relying on you. I know your competence," Vincent replied. He was looking for his little brother to offer his work because Vincent was always excited to see how much his Little brother had grown up to be a good man, just like him.

"Well, I'm thinking about searching for her myself," Vernon said. "You know, my sister-in-law might be too scared to face you, so she will keep moving when she realizes that you're searching for her."

"So how about me? I will be the one who searches for her, and coaxes her to return to you," Vernon offered.

He thought that Vincent would agree immediately, just like he usually does.

But he didn't.

He just scoffed and said, "Well, that's not what I want."

"Not what you want?"

"I don't want you to coax her. Why would you try to coax a woman? And I don't want you to use my name to persuade her as well. That's a disgrace," Vincent said.

His eyes darkened as he imagined Vernon trying to be sweet in front of Chloe, and Chloe responded by throwing herself into his embrace. That image was somehow very infuriating for Vincent.

"You can help me find her. But once you locate her, you should return and report it to me," Vincent commanded. "I don't want you to deal with her."

Vernon frowned upon hearing that, "Why? I'm just trying to help, Big bro."

"I know, but Chloe is a bitch. She ran away from a loving and responsible man like me, and then jumped into the arms of another man. She has a lot of tricks up her sleeve, and I don't want you to fall into her deceit."

"I don't understand, Big bro. I know my boundaries, and I know that Chloe is married to you. Why would I try to keep her for myself? I have a date of my own, and I'm planning to marry her," Vernon protested. Of course, that was all a lie. In fact, the date that Vernon wanted to marry was none other than Chloe herself.
