"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.
"Ahahaha… but please don't tell this to Vernon, okay?" Chloe asked.
"About what Vincent did to you?"
"Yeah…"
"Isn't it better for him to know how much of a dick his brother can be?"
"Ah, please don't…." Chloe tightened her hold on Diamond's hand. "I'm not close with Vernon, and I don't know if he will take my side or his brother's. Though, since Vincent's businesses and connections were unparalleled. I don't think he will challenge Vincent if he is not reckless or stupid."
"But he is the only one that could help…"
"I don't want to be a burden. No—I just don't want him to see me as a burden. I just need the money and escape because trying to divorce Vincent is almost impossible, knowing all of the power he held," Chloe said. "I hope you understand, Diamond."
