Vernon saw the shirt that had been thrown at him and turned his head in the direction of the waitress. Nicky was only wearing her blue bra as she brazenly said, "Mr. Phoenix Gray, look at me! I can be your woman tonight!"

Vernon's patience was already at his limit. His head was banging like crazy, and this bitch continued to scream about being his woman or whatever. Even though Vernon already told her that he had a woman at home!

Seeing that Mr. Phoenix Gray didn't respond to her at all, Nicky became utterly desperate. She jumped towards Mr. Phoenix Gray and pushed him!

"WHAT THE—" Vernon was surprised when this crazy waitress suddenly pushed him until he lost his footing and fell on the bed behind him. Nicky quickly took the chance by sitting on Vernon's abs and took off her bra desperately.

"Mr. Phoenix Gray, please, just one night. I promise you won't regret it! PLEASE!" Nicky threw her bra to the CEO's face, much to Vernon's disgust.

He grabbed the bra on his face and threw it away. He glared at this crazy bitch who was mounting him.

Nicky thought she still had a chance, so she begged, "Mr. Phoenix Gray, I will make sure that you will enjoy me. Just forget about that ugly bitch in your life, okay?"

Vernon finally snapped when someone called his woman an 'ugly bitch.'

He grabbed Nicky's arm and flung her to the side.

"AH!" Nicky shrieked as she landed on the bed, lying right beside Vernon. She thought that Mr. Phoenix Gray would finally do something to her.

But he just got up from the bed and shook his head again as he tried to stabilize his body before attempting to leave the room.

"M—Mr. Phoenix Gray—"

"SHUT UP!" Vernon finally snapped, and Nicky zipped her mouth out of shock.

Vernon stood while backing Nicky. He had no intention of looking at her. He clenched his fist as he tried to quell his anger, "I have my woman waiting for me at home. I'm not a cheater, and she is not replaceable by anyone, do you understand?"

"But…"

Before Nicky could continue her sentence, Vernon took off all the money in his wallet and threw it at the bed. Nicky saw the hundred dollars bills raining on her. She should be happy that she got the money she wanted.

But this was nothing compared to the money Vernon Phoenix Gray— the rising CEO, had in his bank account.

Unfortunately, she had lost her chance. Maybe she was too eager, but shouldn't all men love an eager woman? Especially a playboy like Vernon, who had met many women who wanted to climb on his bed.

'That woman in his heart… is she that important for him?' Nicky wondered, feeling depressed as she sat silently while the dollars scattered on the bed.

"That should be enough for you," Vernon said. He exerted more strength to walk to the door and left the room.

He was at his limit. His headache was unbearable, and his body swayed left and right until he had to take a break by leaning on the wall as he tried to walk out of the bar.

There was only one woman in his mind right now, the one he had been dreaming of every night.

The one he only had his eyes on, and he wanted to return to her no matter what.

"I need her. I need her by my side…." Vernon murmured as he pushed himself to continue walking towards the front of the bar so he could escape.



Diamond arrived quickly after she got the call from her Boss. She was excited to finally see progress between her Boss and her homegirl. Since she wasn't allowed to interfere by Vernon, the only thing she could do was to support them whenever there was progress.

'This chapter is updated by N(o)V(e)lB(i)n.',

She entered the bar and headed straight to the manager whom she was familiar with.

The manager turned his head towards Diamond, and his face brightened instantly, "Ah, Diamond! Are you here to pick up Mr. Phoenix Gray again?"

"Obviously," Diamond said since this scenario had happened many times. "He called me so I can pick him up."

"Hmm, I thought he'd spend the night here," the bar manager said. "He ordered seven-star fantasy, a set of seven drinks to make you black out drunk after the seventh shot. The new waitress seems to be very excited as well."

The luxury bar manager signaled that Vernon might have taken that woman to spend the night with, but Diamond shook her head fervently, "No, he said he wants to return home because he— well, the detail doesn't matter. I'm just here to pick him up."

"Oh well, he is in—"

"Urgh..."

Diamond and the bar manager turned their heads at the same time once they heard a grunt coming from the corridor leading to the private rooms.

They saw Vernon Phoenix Gray walking out while trying to prop himself on the wall.

"SIR!" Diamond rushed to her Boss and propped him on her shoulder while the manager followed and helped to prop the other side.

"Diamond, I… I want to meet…."

Vernon was stammering, trying his hardest to utter what he wanted to do right now. He was barely there after the sixth shot of that seven-star fantasy drink kicked in his body.

"Yeah, I know, Boss. I will bring you to her," Diamond said. She was helped by the manager to put Vernon in her car, then returned to the bar to pay with Vernon's credit card.

"Did he also… you know," Diamond asked, mentioning whether Vernon had to pay for that woman in his private room.

But the bar manager shook his head, "I checked the room, and Mr. Phoenix Gray gave her more than enough tips. Besides, the waitress said that he didn't touch her at all. You should see the defeated look in her eyes. This should be the first time Mr. Phoenix Gray rejected a woman here."
