Divorced My Scum Husband, Married His Evil brother-Chapter 462 462
Ding!
The elevator stopped at the top floor. Vincent and Maria stepped out of the elevator. They were greeted by Diamond, who bowed slightly, "Good morning, Mr. Gray. Mr. Phoenix Gray has been expecting you."
"Good," Vincent gave Diamond a light smile. "Have you been expecting me as well? You know my offer still stands. I can pay you twice the amount that Vernon paid if you want to be my secretary."
Diamond felt a shiver down her spine when Vincent flirted with her again. She was so disgusted by the idea of getting fucked by this man that she wanted to slap him right here, right now, for being a fucking perverted asshole.
But she had to stay professional and replied, "My apologies, Sir. But I have been working here for a while, and working with Mr. Phoenix Gray suits me the most."
"I see, I guess you want to get fucked by a manchild, huh?" Vincent joked. He had a little laugh, "It's fine. Though, once you get bored getting fucked by my Little bro, you can find me, I will make you my private secretary." f𝔯ℯe𝓌ℯ𝐛𝒏𝐨ѵel.c𝚘𝐦
"I would rather stay with Mr. Phoenix Gray, Sir," Diamond insisted. Her heart was burning in rage as she felt really humiliated right now.
This asshole really thought that she was just a whore! Diamond took pride in her job here. She was a hella competent secretary, unlike Vincent's bitch secretary, Priscilla.
Vincent laughed again, "Alright, alright," he placed his hand on Diamond's butt cheek and gave it a light squeeze. Diamond gasped and retreated in an instant, which made Vincent delighted by her reaction. "Oh well, I guess it can't be helped. Lead me to Vernon now."
...
Diamond bit her lower lip to calm herself down before she returned to her professional mode. She led Vincent and Maria towards Vernon's office and opened the door for them, "Please come in, Sir. Mr. Phoenix Gray is waiting."
Vincent and Maria entered the office.
Vernon was sitting on his desk with his hand cupped on the table. He smiled at Vincent, "Good morning, Big bro. Your arrival is sudden. I would prefer you to tell me beforehand."
Vincent smiled at his Little brother and sat on the sofa. He put his shoes on the table and stretched his arms, acting as if this place was his, "Why would I need to tell you? We're brothers, we're supposed to share. You're free to come to my office anytime you want as well," Vincent said. He raised one brow and teased, "Did I scare you somehow? Did you hide your girlfriend here? I bet she must've visited you often, when will you introduce her to me?"
"Haha... I'd just wait until the right time," Vernon replied. "She's still not ready to face the family."
"I see," Vincent nodded in understanding. "Just make sure that she's a good woman, unlike Chloe, that bitch has no gratefulness."
Vernon took a deep breath. He almost got triggered by Vincent's careless words.
"Anyway, what do you want, Big bro? I bet you're not just here to hang out, right?"
"Hahah, of course I can't hang out. I have a lot of work to do," Vincent said. "Naturally, I have an important matter to discuss with you."
"And what is it about?"
"It's about the offer I gave you yesterday, Vernon," Vincent said. He glanced at Maria, and Secretary Maria walked towards Vernon's desk. She opened the briefcase and put a file on the desk. "I have all the documents prepared, one contract for our work regarding the advertisement of the newest makeup product. And another contract is about your willingness to take half of my share in the new cosmetic company."
Vernon was in full guard, but he acted like he never suspected his Big bro. He picked up the file and checked the documents inside.
Vincent was telling the truth. The documents in his hand consisted of two contracts, one for the advertisement contract and one for the share.
Vernon gave it a quick read because he didn't want to be seen hesitating. Hesitation in front of Vincent was always fatal, so Vernon had to take decisive action despite the short time.
"Hmm, I see...." Vernon put the file on the desk and nodded, "I gave it a quick read. I'll sign the advertisement contract, but I don't think I will sign the half-share contract, not yet, at least."
Vernon's decision surprised Vincent. He thought Vernon would agree and sign it without hesitation or suspicion.
He always saw Vernon as an ambitious kid who sometimes had to be put in his cage, but he was still very cute, and Vincent surely adored his Little brother.
"Why not? Is there anything wrong with the contract?"
"Nothing wrong, but I'm not sure if I will be able to handle a 35% share of that new company, you know I have lots of things to do everyday, Big bro."
"Ah-- You don't need to worry about that," Vincent said. "You just need to put your name in the company. I'll still be the one who makes some of the big decisions, of course you're allowed to join any meeting if you want." 𝒇𝐫ℯ𝑒𝒘ℯ𝑏n𝑜ѵ𝐞l.c𝗼𝗺
The more Vincent tried to make it easy for him, the more suspicious he got. Vernon wasn't an idiot. He knew how calculative and manipulative his Big bro could be, so he must've had a trap laid out somewhere.
Vernon sighed, "I know you're making it easy for me, Big bro. But I still feel guilty."
"Guilty?"
"Yeah, I got used to working my ass off in every business that I have. I feel guilty and useless if I just let you do everything on your own," Vernon said. Of course, it was just an alibi so Vincent wouldn't be suspicious. Vernon tapped the desk with his fingers a few times and hummed before he suggested, "How about I just sign the contract for advertising your product, but I will keep the other contract about the share. I need some time to think about it, Big bro."
