Divorced My Scum Husband, Married His Evil brother

Vernon turned around and walked away.

Vincent's eyes kept staring at his Little brother's broad back until Vernon opened the door and left his office.

A smirk grew on Vincent's face, realizing that it wasn't difficult for him to control Vernon.

With his hand on the armrest, Vincent leaned on his chair, tapping one finger as he thought about what to do next.

"Well, of course I did this not to hurt him," Vincent muttered. "I just don't like how he keeps growing like he's going to overtake me sooner or later.m I need a way to continuously put him under my pressure, so he will know who's the boss, and won't get any funny ideas."

Vincent truly loved his Little brother. In his eyes, Vernon was the only sibling and family member he had, so he treasured him a lot.

But he never liked when Vernon tried to one-up him in anything.

"I want him to keep looking up to me, I am his dependable Big brother after all, but my cute Little brother has changed now," Vincent sighed as he couldn't hide his dislike towards Vernon's new devil-may-care attitude. "It'd be better if he just begged me to share the wealth of the Gray family. I can give him 50% of everything the Gray family has— everything that I currently have."

"But he refused to beg for my help. Instead, he went as far as developing a new product," Vincent recalled how Secretary Maria reported all of her findings about Vernon's company activity. He thought it was great that his Little brother was now a grown-up who could do his own stuff.

But at the same time, there was a growing insecurity in his heart.

He was used to being the one worshiped by Vernon, and he refused to be beaten by his Little brother in any way possible, "Even with women," Vincent added. "I will not let him marry whoever his current girlfriend is, not until Chloe returns to me willingly. It'd be embarrassing to attend Vernon's wedding without my wife by my side."

"Now, speaking of my wife…." Vincent got up and returned to the sofa. He grabbed his phone and opened the gallery again. He wanted to watch Chloe getting cornered with fright from another angle. It was so entertaining.

Vernon left Vincent's office feeling conflicted. He had accepted the offer simply because it was an opportunity presented in front of him.

But he felt there was something off.

It was all good, all perfect on the outside.

But there was nothing free in this world, and he was convinced that his Big bro must've planned something.

'Did he already sniffed about Chloe and I?' Vernon wondered as he drove to his office.

Honestly, he wasn't scared if his Big bro found out about his relationship with Chloe. He could just return to Europe. His businesses were already very solid in London and Madrid.

But Chloe was still in the process of divorce, and he wanted to suppress Vincent first, forcing him to go through the divorce process according to the law.

So he could bring Chloe and Mackie to other countries, and they could actually start a family there.

So he had to play the long game…

Vernon went to his office and met with Diamond, who was sipping coffee while playing on her phone.

Diamond gave her boss a quick look before returning to her phone.

Vernon's lips twitched. Ever since Chloe became the third party in this office, Diamond has been so casual these days. She often ignored him when Vernon didn't call and told her to do something. In the past, she would be busy trying to meet all of his demands. It was a stressful professional relationship between them.

Now they were more like friends because of Chloe's presence.

'Well, as long as she's still doing her job perfectly and efficiently as always,' Vernon thought. 'She's basically Chloe's only friend for now, and I can ask her opinion about many things.'

"Diamond, make me a coffee and come to my office, I have something important to talk about with you."

"Sure thing, Boss."

Diamond put a cup of coffee on the table. She took a few steps back, waiting for her boss, who sat on the sofa, to speak.

"Here, let me show you something," Vernon grabbed his laptop from the table and opened his email. He put the laptop beside the coffee and turned it so Diamond could see the screen.

Diamond leaned in and started reading the document. She frowned for a moment, "I see nothing wrong with it. It's a cosmetic company wanting to make an ad to go viral. It's hard to break into the cosmetic market without going viral first, Sir."

"I know that, and once we can complete this project, I will get 35% of the company share as well," Vernon added.

"What?! 35%?! Sir— that's some kind of crazy offer! It's too good to be true!"

"Yeah, this is my Big brother's new company. He wants me to make an effective ad for the product," Vernon said. "He's willing to give me 35% of the share in that new company as long as I do good."

"Did you take it then?"

"I did, simply because I don't want him to think that I have suspicions," Vernon said. "Besides, Vincent seems serious about giving me that 35%."

"So, what do you think, Diamond? Should I take this?" Vernon asked. "If I took this and the product went viral, I'd get a lot of footing and connection within his circle. It would hasten the process for me to snatch all of his people. But at the same time, this is also a risky move I'd have to take."

Diamond hummed for a while. She wanted to say no. He shouldn't take it because it sounded too shady, especially coming from Vincent Gray.

But her boss was right, if he got a 35% share of Vincent's new company, his credibility would skyrocket, and it'd be easy to shake things up within Vincent's business circle if needed.
