Anna saw Miss Chloe Carlson was still busy looking around her new apartment. She didn't want to disturb the new mistress, so she bowed her head and said, "I will put the key on this table, Miss Chloe. Call me if you need anything. Please excuse me."

Chloe turned around and politely thanked the receptionist.

The janitor put Chloe's luggage near her before closing the door.

It was a luxury apartment, but it wasn't as luxurious as her home with Vincent, their villas, or everything else.

But Vernon's apartment building— and his whole achievement was a lot more impressive than Vincent's.

Because Chloe knew that Vernon was a self-made, a polar opposite of Vincent, who had everything from the very start, and was told to manage and expand the ever-powerful Gray family's businesses.

She heard from Dorothea that Vernon refused any monetary aid from the Gray family, and people assumed that Vernon just wanted to cut the ties with his family.

So he started from the bottom, and his entertainment and investment company skyrocketed in five years.

"What an amazing man…." Chloe murmured. "No wonder all women are crazy over him."

But not for Chloe, though. She knew her place and knew that Vernon was just playing around. Just like how Vincent fucked almost every attractive woman he met, they were blood brothers, after all.

Chloe felt a growing self-loathing in her heart, wishing she would never be involved with Vincent, and all the regrets started coming to her.

But she quickly dispelled the thought before the negative thoughts affected her spirit, "Not now, Chloe. Focus on your daughter's well-being first. That's the most important."

Chloe carried the luggage and started exploring her new apartment. She had two bedrooms set up each for her and Mackie and then started checking the bathroom, laundry room, and the kitchen, especially the fridge.

"They have everything here…" Chloe muttered. "Should I restock the grocery myself, or the staff will restock it?"

Chloe remembered that Mackenzie had her own favorite drink, snack, and a few niche spices that the staff probably wouldn't know, "I need to talk to Vincent about grocery later."

While checking everything, she found a stair leading to the upper floor, the penthouse that became Vernon's main residence.

Chloe instinctively climbed the stair without hesitation. Vernon told him that she would be responsible for two things;

1. Cooking.

2. Cleaning his office suits.

3. Bed stuff.

"I need to check his dirty laundry, at least," Chloe said. She climbed the staircases and found that the stair was connected to the kitchen.

She immediately checked Vernon's fridge and frowned when she saw the messy fridge and dirty dishes, "Did the housekeepers forget to clean today?"

Chloe did her duty by arranging the stuff inside the fridge and putting the dirty dishes in the dishwasher.

Since the dishwasher would take a while, she checked the dirty laundry and found something strange in the laundry basket…

Chloe grabbed the only dirty laundry that hadn't been washed, but it wasn't a shirt or even underwear.

It was female black lingerie.

"Vernon lives alone, right?"

"Don't tell me that he likes to crossdress?" Chloe theorized. But in the end, she warded off the thought, threw the lingerie back into the laundry basket, and checked the bedroom. She guessed there must be a few more dirty shirts and suits there.

The bedroom door was half-open, but the room was dark, so she couldn't see anything from outside. But a strong scent of alcohol from the room got Chloe dizzy for a moment.

Chloe pushed the door open and turned on the light.

"AHHHHHH!" Chloe jolted and screamed out of shock when she saw a naked man and woman sleeping on the bed. They were sleeping heavily, and there were many bottles of expensive alcohol around them.

The woman woke up first when she heard the scream. She grumbled before opening her eyes.

The woman stared at Chloe in a daze before sighing and asking, "Are you the new maid? Did Vernon not tell you about anything?"

Chloe was too stunned to react. She kept staring at the woman who gently slapped the sleeping man's cheeks a few times for him to get up, "Babe, wake up."

"Urgh… what?" the man asked.

"Vernon hired a new maid. She is shocked because we're sleeping in his room."

"Ah—"

The man opened his eyes wide. He looked at Chloe and forced a smile, "Are you Vernon's new maid? Ah, he must've forgotten to tell you about our planned threesome."

"P—p—planned threesome?" that kind of word was so out of the world for Chloe, but the man said it so lightly.

"Yeah, we planned a threesome, and we had a blast last night, but he is strangely passive," the man said.

"Oh yeah!" the woman agreed. "He just watches, and he seems pissed for some reason. But well, we still had a blast being watched by him!"

The pair laughed happily, and they got up. They dressed and walked past Chloe, "Oh, by the way…."

The woman returned to Chloe and took money out of her wallet, "I feel bad for startling you. This is just pocket money for you. Don't tell anyone about us, okay?"

Chloe stared at the woman, and in closer inspection, she recognized her, "Wait, aren't you Gwen Sa—"

"Sshh," the woman put her index on her lips and winked, "I'm just Vernon's acquaintance. I will leave with my boyfriend now. Goodbye."

Gwen and her boyfriend walked out of the room and used the lift down to the parking lot. Chloe was still too shocked to react.

First, the black lingerie in the laundry basket, now a pair of a celebrity couple supposedly having a threesome with Vernon.

Chloe shook her head, trying to adjust to her new life as a maid, "How am I supposed to give a good environment for Mackie like this? I need to talk to Vernon. Maybe he will allow me to live somewhere with my salary."
