"Damn you, Old hag! What are you doing calling me late at night?!" Vincent cursed as he had to answer Secretary Maria's call while he was enjoying himself watching Chloe. "This better be an important stuff or I'm not going to be kind tomorrow."
Secretary Maria wasn't surprised by Mr. Gray's threats and curses. She was used to it since the day she worked with Vaughn Gray. In fact, she felt that Vincent was basically a toned-down version of his late father because he took too much time caring about this one useless bitch called Chloe.
"I'm going to inform you about Chelsea Carlson's condition, Sir. You said that you want me to keep watching over that woman and her condition," Secretary Maria replied.
"Oh— Yeah, tell me then," Vincent toned down his anger after knowing it was about Chelsea.
Secretary Maria felt something wasn't right but decided to inform her boss before stating her concern.
"The doctor said that they will take off Chelsea's bandage around her face tomorrow. So if you want to visit— for whatever reason, please come in the morning."
"I see," Vincent hummed for a moment. "Push my morning meeting to the afternoon, I will visit that woman tomorrow morning."

"What the—?! That's fucking gross!" Vincent protested. "What gives you that idea?"
"Because you keep paying close attention to her, and even went as far as paying for her medical bill and sending money to her bank account as well," Secretary Maria said. "You're doing more than what her husband does to her, so it is safe for me to assume that you have an interest in her, Sir."
"Oh, that I do— I do have an interest in her, but not in a romantic way, that's disgusting," Vincent said. "I want to use her as bait so I can see Chloe again. I know she must be hiding somewhere right now, and her family is a good bait."
Secretary Maria let out a relieved sigh. She thought her boss had gone insane and gone for the worse sister.
Chelsea was not as beautiful as Chloe and seemed to be a trashy woman who would ruin the Gray family's reputation once she married Vincent.
Fortunately, Vincent just wanted to use her as bait.
"Understood, Sir. I will push your morning schedule, good night."
Beep.

Vincent tossed his phone on the bed after the call ended. He had lost his mood to jack off tonight because he remembered about Chelsea.
His dick went flaccid instantly when he imagined that scar added to her ugly face. It made him wonder if he could pretend like he cared tomorrow morning.The latest_epi_sodes are on_the ɴovelFɪre.net
"Well, she is my ticket to find Chloe again. I bet she is not going to show up anytime soon, not even with Mackie."
Of course, Vincent could always use the crude method to find Chloe again, but it was all part of the game because his pride didn't allow him to do that.
"I have plenty of ways to make her return anyway. Playing her like this sure spices up our married life."

Chelsea sat on the hospital bed, surrounded by her family— except her husband, who was nowhere to be found.
He was uncontactable a few days before Chelsea got attacked. But he was definitely alive because Judith said that Tommy had come to the house three days ago, taken the money from Chelsea's safe, and then left without saying a word.
Chelsea should be devastated, knowing that her husband didn't give a shit about her and was probably going to abandon her soon.
But she wasn't all that sad because there was another man who was a hundred times better than Tommy could ever be.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThis man was so perfect. Chelsea believed he came to her as compensation for all the suffering she experienced in life and all the good deeds she had done by taking care of her children.
'I will still report Tommy to Vincent if he asks later, though,' Chelsea thought. At first, she didn't believe it when her attacker said that Tommy sent his regards, painting that bastard as the one attacking her.
But now that he was absent and refused to even come and visit his hospitalized wife, Chelsea's suspicion started to grow.
'What if he attacked me because he already has another woman outside?' Chelsea guessed. It didn't make sense to ruin her face instead of killing her with the attack. 'Besides, I won't get anything if we get divorced. His bank account is literally in minus!'
Amidst her thoughts, the door was opened, and a tall man stood at the door with a bouquet of flowers in his hand.
"Good morning, I hope I'm not late," he said.
He smiled warmly as he entered the hospital room, and Chelsea's kids looked up to the handsome man in his mid-thirty, "Why are you here, Uncle Vincent?"
Vincent gave the flower to Judith, who was surprised by her son-in-law's sudden arrival, and then looked down, "I'm here to check on your Mom."
"Really? I thought Uncle would only visit when Aunt Chloe is around," Aaron— the oldest of Chelsea's sons, muttered.
Vincent's expression stiffened for a moment, and Chelsea noticed it.
"AARON! SHUT UP!" Chelsea shouted at her first son until all her kids jolted out of right. They looked at their mother simultaneously and got terrified because Chelsea looked so angry at them for no reason.
Chelsea's gaze softened towards Vincent, and she said, "Don't mind them. They're just kids, Vincent. And thank you for visiting, and the flowers too, they're so pretty."
"Haha, yeah…" Vincent smiled back at Chelsea. "Pretty flowers for a pretty lady. I'd give you flowers everyday if you want."
