"The most luxurious thing she ever did with your black card is treating me and her daughter to a restaurant," Diamond said. "And it's not even the expensive one, so I don't understand how you get the idea that she spent a lot of money."
Vernon remembered this restaurant that Diamond mentioned. Because Chloe put the bill at the dining table alongside the grocery bill.
Vernon found it ridiculous why he had to read a grocery bill. Did she think of him as a poor man who would pester on menial things such as groceries?
"Did she ever ask for your money?" Vernon asked again.
"Never, even in that restaurant, I said that I could pay for everything, but she insisted on paying me because she thought of me as her friend," Diamond replied.
Diamond watched how Mr. Phoenix Gray's expression changed from confusion to contemplation. Diamond didn't know what caused him to be so concerned with Chloe.
