Nevertheless, Vincent still ate breakfast while imagining the taste of the food that the real Chloe usually made.

"Sir, today is a big day for you. Please be prepared because… because you will sign a lot of legal documents to give the ownership of the company to Mr. Vernon Phoenix Gray," Khloe was a little worried that Vincent might change his mind.

But Vincent only nodded in silence. He ate his breakfast without much excitement. He was annoyed that no matter how hard he tried to remember the taste of Chloe's cooking, he seemed to start forgetting about it.

'Damn it, it's been almost a decade since the last time I tasted her homemade food. I can't remember the taste anymore,' Vincent complained. He was mad because he had forgotten, and he was even madder knowing that he wouldn't be able to taste it for the rest of his life.

After an unpleasant breakfast, he got up from the bed and took a hot shower to start the day. He closed his eyes, trying to enjoy the shower, but he opened it in less than ten seconds.

He kept imagining Chloe.

Every time he closed his eyes, Chloe and her gentle smile would appear in his mind, taunting him because he wouldn't be able to touch her again from now on.

Vincent gritted his teeth and yelled, "Get out of my mind, Chloe. You left me, so you should leave my mind as well!"

Of course, there was no answer from anyone. Vincent was alone in the bathroom, and he began to cry as the loneliness in his heart began to eat him up from the inside.

He sobbed because he knew he would lose everything today. He would lose his company, his power, and with the loss of his power, he knew that he had no more way to find Chloe.

"Chloe… my wife…" He murmured as he stood under the hot shower for a while, letting the water wash away all of his tears and sadness.

He walked out of the bathroom and put on the suit that had been prepared by Khloe.

He frowned when he saw the style that Khloe chose.

Again, it was a reminiscence of how Chloe would prepare a suit for him to look dapper in a non-flashy way, "That woman really learns how to be Chloe's replacement, huh?" Vincent scoffed as he couldn't help to mock her attempt. "Should I give her an applause for trying to imitate Chloe? It's getting ridiculous."

Nevertheless, he still wore the suit that had been prepared and left the mansion with a car he drove himself.

It had been a while since he drove the car by himself. It felt somehow liberating knowing today would be the last day as the CEO of the Gray company.

"I will be a regular man after I sign whatever contract Vernon has for me," Vincent murmured as he drove to the company.

He imagined himself as a free man without the responsibility that his late father bestowed on him since he was very young.

And somehow, that imagination brought a smile to him.

"I will be free."

Vernon walked out of the elevator after reaching the top floor of the Gray company, followed by Meyer, who acted as his bodyguard. He followed Priscilla into the CEO's office.

He expected his Big Brother to look defeated, or maybe he would look so pissed knowing that Vernon had defeated him.

Nevertheless, those two expressions would be fun for him to see.

But what he didn't expect was Vincent, who smiled at him. Vincent stood in the middle of the CEO's office and said, "Good morning, Vernon. It's been a while."

…

Vernon frowned, "Why are you smiling like an idiot? You know that you're about to lose your company, right?" He asked without hesitation, knowing that Vincent wouldn't be able to fight back at this point.

"I know very well this would be the end of my career as a CEO, but at the same time, I am quite happy because I will be able to finally rest from the path that our late father carved for me," Vincent said. "I can finally leave all of the pressures that he gave me since I was very young."

Vernon didn't like how calm he was. He expected Vincent to cry until his tears turned into blood. He wanted Vincent to curse at him, telling Vernon to die and rot in hell.

'Well, this is a little disappointing,' Vernon thought. But he proceeded with what he wanted to do here and said, "I've prepared all the documents needed for the acquisition. Of course, we will have to involve lawyers, et cetera. But by signing all the documents that I will give you, that means you already transferred the ownership of this company to me, Big bro."

Vincent nodded without hesitation. He said, "Why don't we sit for now, let me read all the documents you brought and see if it fits."

Vernon and Vincent sat on the sofa face-to-face. Meyer was standing behind Vernon, while Priscilla was standing behind Vincent.

Meyer put the stack of documents on the long table and said, "You should check it first, don't worry, I have all the time to wait so you can sign them."

Vincent nodded. He opened the documents one by one and made a quick skim of the whole thing. Priscilla—now Khloe—also did the same to help her boss.

Vernon stared at his Big brother for a while and then asked, "Do you not realize the severity of your situation, Big bro? You're about to lose everything, your career is done for. You will have nothing!"

"I know," Vincent replied while his eyes were still on the documents. "I know that it's all over, Vernon."

"So what's with you trying to act calm? I thought you'd be devastated knowing that you've failed your father," Vernon continued taunting his Big brother, wanting to get a big reaction from him. He had been waiting for more than a decade to get his revenge, and he wouldn't be satisfied until Vincent turned insane.
