"Sir, all she did was just grocery shopping while nagging about you… you can do that later at your penthouse, right?"
"But this is different!" Vernon protested. "She never talked so freely like that in front of me!"
"Well that's because you're scaring her!" Diamond snapped back. But there was no hostility between them, and Diamond was much more relaxed after the call.
She had to admit that no woman could calm her boss like Chloe. She was like the gentle wind in dry land for Vernon, and Diamond was happy that Chloe existed in this life.
'Seriously, my office life would be hell without a homegirl.'
Vernon was still annoyed at Diamond because she dared to hang up the call while he was enjoying the nagging from Chloe on the phone.
It was so soothing that his rage and anxiety were temporarily dispelled.
Diamond realized how much her boss liked Chloe's nagging to the point of weird fascination, 'Is this a fetish thing?' she wondered.
