Vernon was snacking in his office when he finally got the call from his beloved Big brother. He scoffed as he saw Vincent's number and cleared his throat to fake the enthusiasm in his voice before answering the call.

"Good afternoon, Big bro!" Vernon greeted joyfully, fully knowing that Vincent must be enraged right now. "Is there sothing you want to talk about?"
"Yes, co to my mansion right now. Be here in thirty minutes or I will be really mad at you, Vernon," Vincent said with his repressive tone as he tried to intimidate his little brother. But Vernon almost giggled because he was so excited to see his Big brother's expression.
"Alright, I'll be there in thirty minutes!"
Beep.

"Pfft—hahaha!" Vernon laughed freely as he was ridiculing his Big bro. Just by his tone, Vernon already knew that Vincent was still trying to forgive him.
"He probably thought that I did a blunder or sothing, ppfft—," Vernon got up from the sofa and grabbed his car key. "Well, I'll act all clueless then. It's fun to see him struggling to keep his good opinion about ."
Vernon left the office and saw Diamond sitting on the Secretary's Desk as always, their eyes t, and Diamond asked, "Where are you going, Sir?"
"To et my Big brother," Vernon replied briefly. He walked to the elevator, pressed the button, and reminded Diamond, "Don't forget to find a good mid-ranged apartnt for Chloe and the boys. Make it far from the Phoenix Tower, I don't want to rouse any suspicion from my Big brother regarding Chloe."
"Yes, Sir. I already found a good mid-ranged apartnt for rent," Diamond replied. Her boss had already told her about the whole thing, and she was hellbent on helping her hogirl to find a place when the CPS ca. "Do you want to prepare the children's docunts as well, Sir? You know, for their school."
"I can handle that myself," Vernon said. "But you should help Chloe to buy as many clothes as possible for Dorothea and those boys. She can't go to the mall because she's still hiding right now."
"Understood, Sir," Diamond said. "Please take care, and return in one piece."
Vernon chuckled. He entered the elevator and assured, "Relax, the only thing that won't be in one piece after this is Vincent's sanity."
The last thing that Diamond saw was her boss' malicious grin as the elevator door closed.
Diamond shrugged as she returned to her phone as she was still contacting the landlord. She knew her boss would be fine, "I'm more worried about my hogirl. She will be exposed since she's taking care of four boys, I have to make sure nobody can hurt her, maybe I should hire extra bodyguards for her. yer the driver is not enough if Vincent decides to raid the apartnt."

Vernon went to the mansion without a worry. He parked his car and swaggered through the corridors filled with maids as none dared to even look at him, knowing the status of Vernon Phoenix Gray as Vincent Gray's favored little brother.
anwhile, Vernon's eyes swept around the corridor. They realized his Big brother hadn't removed a single frad picture of Chloe or Mackie. This proved that no matter how much he despised Chloe for running away, he just couldn't live without her.
'We're not so different,' Vernon thought. 'We have the sa obsession towards her. I just treat her better, that's why I got to have her by my side.'
Vernon knocked on the ho office door a few tis until he heard a voice from the inside, "Co in!"
Vernon opened the door, and saw his Big brother writing sothing on his ho office desk. He looked pissed, but not pissed enough to the point that he'd attack Vernon without having a proper discussion first.
Which was funny for Vernon.
Because his Big brother was clearly able to have a proper conversation. He was logical and smart. But he went absolutely batshit insane in front of Chloe.
As if Chloe was a special thing, he could pour all of his craziness into her so he could act normal in front of the others.
Vernon clenched his fist for a few seconds, trying to curb his anger. Vincent had done enough damage to Chloe and would not allow him to keep doing that.
"Sup, Big bro?" Vernon asked. He sat on the sofa leisurely and put his feet on the coffee table.
Vincent lifted his head a bit and continued writing as he opened the conversation, "Do you know how much of an idiot you are? You disappoint , Vernon."
Vernon acted surprised, "Wha—What's wrong, Big bro? Did I do sothing that makes you mad? I thought I did everything according to your instruction."
Vincent finally put down his pen and glared at Vernon, who sat across the room, "Do you not realize the timing of the advertisent? That stupid bitch Chelsea went viral because of a video of her fighting with Chloe. She dares to claim that I will be marrying her even though we barely have any contact," Vincent said. Though he intentionally tried to mask a few things, such as the fact that he actually had a lot of contact with Chelsea.
"The advertisent only exacerbated the viral Vincent and Joker hashtag. Your ad only put in a worse position, Vernon. Everyone is laughing at right now."
Vernon almost laughed at his Big bro for being so stupid to hire him. But he tried his best to maintain his shocked expression, "But I did everything based on your instruction, Big bro. You told to make an ad with that beauty guru, and also with that pose, the sa shade of lipstick, even the sa tagline. And the date as well, you told to publish today, so I already prepared everything a month before, and everything is according to the schedule."
"Why would you bla for sothing I can't control, Big bro? It's not my fault that you beco a laughing stock!"
