Divorced My Scum Husband, Married His Evil brother

"Okay, I'll accompany you. Go eat the soup," Chloe instructed.

"Nice! Don't run away, Chloe!" Vernon said, and he smiled full of satisfaction, which was something that only happened once in a blue moon.

He was usually grumpy and would lash at anyone whenever he was in a bad mood.

The smile that he showed also put Chloe in a good mood. She was more than happy to care for this giant baby if that would make him feel better and less stressed.

Chloe sat on the dining seat, directly facing Vernon, who was eating the chicken noodle soup, sipping it eagerly.

Chloe observed Vernon for a while. When he wasn't intimidating and yelling at everyone, he reminded Chloe of the cute little Vernon she once nurtured from the age of seven.

He might've forgotten about many things since he was just a kid. But Chloe remembered how much of a detached kid he was.

He was a little rich master of an old influential family who lacked love.

His parents were a mess that barely cared for their kids. They always thought that paying nannies and maids would solve everything.

'Vincent once told me that Vernon was a troublesome kid who would only give me hell, but what I saw was... a kid who just wanted to be loved....'

To think about it again, even his Big brother didn't know how to take care of Vernon, so he was left with a bunch of yes-maids and butlers who would allow him to destroy everything just for fun or make noises.

'I still remember how he cried when his parents fought, he would ask me to hide inside his room, and curled while hugging me. He would try to cover his ears as much as possible because he hated seeing his parents yelling at each other....'

Chloe remembered everything perfectly since she was already seventeen-year-old when she met little Vernon for the first time and continued taking care of him until she was busy with university, and then got married to Vincent.

'I also don't know why he is absent on my wedding day, I thought he would be happy for me....'

Chloe called Vernon, who was fifteen-year-old at the time. She wondered why her little Vernon wasn't attending her wedding, but Vernon didn't answer her call or text.

She asked Vincent, and Vincent took it as a joke, a painful one that was;

-

"He told me that you look ugly in a wedding dress. You look better with a maid dress because it suits you more, haha!" Vernon joked, which Chloe could only gasp at as a response.

Because she never thought her cute little Vernon would be so cruel to say that.

"Don't worry about him. He is just a teenager, of course he will say something edgy here and there," Vincent reassured her. "Why don't we enjoy the wedding party instead?"

-

Chloe never saw him again after that because Vernon suddenly left New York to live somewhere in Europe just two days after her wedding.

'Well, look at the bright side. At least he turns out good. He becomes a successful CEO all by his own work, because Vincent repeatedly said that Vernon is mostly uncontactable.'

Vernon noticed Chloe's long stare and a thin smile at the edge of her lips. He finished drinking the broth and put down the ceramic bowl.

Clank!

"Chloe, what are you thinking about?" Vernon asked.

"Ah--" Chloe was surprised by the sudden question, and she shook her head in response. "N--Nothing."

"Really? You can always tell me if you need something, you know...." Vernon said gently, hoping that Chloe would open up a bit.

But Chloe didn't want to get caught reminiscing about the past, so she pointed at the medicine and said, "You should drink the meds and go to sleep, Vernon."

Vernon looked at the medicine reluctantly. He rarely took any medicine because he always brushed off all kinds of medication. He always happened to be a very tough young man with high immunity. One good sleep was all it took for him to be in great condition the next day.

"I don't need medicine. I'm all healthy now."

"Don't talk nonsense. You need to drink this!" Chloe insisted. She got up from the chair and helped Vernon by grabbing the medicine on the table and then putting it in Vernon's hand. "Drink it and go to sleep, okay?"

Vernon gulped as he stared at the meds. He disliked being forced to do something, but when his Big sis Chloe forced him, he started to think it was necessary as he didn't want to make her mad.

"Vernon."

"Okay, okay! I'll drink them! Sheesh, why are you nagging me?" Vernon complained. At first he was going to drink the meds and got it over with. But then he realized how worried his Big sis Chloe was.

So a devious idea popped in his head, "But if I drink these, you need to sleep with me tonight!"

"Sleep--" Chloe gasped out of shock. She thought Vernon didn't want to do anything to her tonight since all he did was lock her in his tight embrace.

Who would've expected that Vernon wanted to do more, and in bed!

Chloe took a step back defensively. She knew that she had to do it eventually because she was nothing but a bed warmer, a woman he could have sex with when he was feeling it.

But she was still nervous nonetheless.

Vernon's lips twitched when he saw her reaction, "Damn it, I'm not going to fuck you tonight!"

'Though, I wish I could,' Vernon added in his heart.

"But you can sleep on your own..."

"Tonight is different. I want someone to hug on my sleep, because I'm feeling sick right now!" Vernon insisted.

"Really? I thought you said it's nothing to worry about..." Chloe said. She still remembered how Vernon didn't seem to bother with his fever.

"W--Well, now I'm in total pain! I feel so sick! Very, very sick!" Vernon suddenly became dramatic all the sudden. "Oh, I think I'm going to faint, my head is spinning... ugh, I think I'm going to die soon, Chloe."
