Divorced My Scum Husband, Married His Evil brother

He pushed the door slowly, just enough so Chloe wouldn't accidentally get hurt.

Unfortunately, his slow push was too powerful for Chloe, who didn't stand a chance against Vernon's monstrous strength.

"W--Wait, Vernon--STOP! Ah!" Chloe lost her footing and fell on her back.

The door was opened, and Vernon stood right in front of her. He had a malicious grin, and his eyes were so dark and full of murderous intention.

He looked down at Chloe, and his grin grew wider, "Are you alright, love?"

...

Chloe was too shocked that her tongue became numb. For a split second, she didn't see Vernon. What she saw was the big version of Vincent.

A monster who could hurt anybody if he was pissed, and she thought Vernon would hurt her, just like Vincent did.

"V--Vernon?" Chloe tried calling his name to ensure the man in front of her was Vernon, not Vincent.

Vernon kneeled in front of her and stretched his bloodied hand. The images of Vincent beating her flashed in her head, so Chloe flinched instinctively, thinking that Vernon wanted to beat her, but he patted her head lovingly instead.

"It seems that you're alright. Please stay put, okay? Don't interrupt me while I kill that bastard."

...

Vernon stared at her with his dilating pupils, he looked crazed, but he still tried his best to tone down his wrath.

Chloe noticed her own reflection inside Vernon's dilating black pupil. It gave the impression that Vernon was absurdly obsessed with her and only with her.

She wouldn't lie that Vincent and Vernon looked alike. The only difference was the obsession radiated from Vernon and how Vernon directed all his rage towards someone else instead of her.

Vernon gave Chloe a light kiss on her forehead before he got up and walked to the bedroom door that had been locked shut.

Knock. Knock.

It took a while for Chloe to recover from that shock. She turned her head towards Vernon and yelled, "V--Vernon, this is all a big misunderstanding!"

Vernon paused for a second, then he tried to ignore Chloe.

He continued knocking.

Knock. Knock.

"Come out now before I bash your skull open," Vernon said calmly, but it carried so much murderous rage that nobody in their right mind would open that damn door.

Dorothea gasped before she covered her mouth with her hands. She took a few steps back from the door until her back hit the wall. Her legs trembled until she couldn't support herself anymore, and she dropped to the floor.

How Vernon threatened her reminded Dorothea of her late husband-- Vaughn Gray.

'Who am I kidding? Of course he reminds me so much of Vaughn. They all have the same blood flowing within, of course they have the same cruelty,' Dorothea thought.

Chloe panicked. She got up and rushed to Vernon.

She hugged his arm to stop him, "Vernon, stop this!"

...

Vernon only quickly glanced at Chloe before he knocked on the door again.

Knock. Knock.

"You think you can hide there forever? Do you want me to kick this door open? I'd be happy to snap your neck, hahaha!"

"VERNON!" Chloe raised her voice. She tried her hardest to pull him away from the door, but it was to no avail. She was too weak compared to enraged Vernon.

Vernon stopped laughing and looked down at Chloe with a glare, "I have been so patient to you, love. Get off me and back off before I get angry."

Chloe was stunned for a few seconds. Blood drained out of her body as she felt a bone chilling sensation of fear around her body

Vernon was truly terrifying. He was bigger, scarier, and stronger than Vincent. One hit from him would definitely break her bone.

But somehow, Chloe firmly believed that Vernon would NEVER hit her. No matter what she did, he would never lay his hand on her, and she was clinging to that belief right now.

Chloe mustered her courage and pulled Vernon as hard as she could until Vernon actually budged a bit.

Vernon was pissed because his beloved woman insisted on protecting this bastard.

Did she not care about his feelings? If his chest was made of glass, Chloe would be able to see his bleeding heart right now.

'Do you really love this guy? After seven months of loving me, did you actually get bored of me and leave me for another man? Chloe, you're cruel....'

Vernon could only pour all his sadness inside his head. He didn't want Chloe to see his weakness because that would be too humiliating for him.

The last thing he would do was cry and beg Chloe not to leave him. As much as he wanted to do that right now, he would never do it in the face of a cheater.

"Let go, Chloe," Vernon said.

"N--No! This is just a misunderstanding! Vernon, please sit down and listen to me first!"

"I don't need to," Vernon said curtly. "You're cheating on me with a man Jonathan. After all I have done to give you a good life, but you--" Vernon stopped because he realized his voice was shaking as he was about to cry.

He gritted his teeth and ignored Chloe, who was still hogging his arm. He raised his feet and kicked the door.

BAM!

Dorothea snapped out of her daze when she heard the loud kick at the door.

The area around the door hinges was cracked and broken because of the powerful kick. Dorothea then heard Chloe begging Vernon to stop, followed by her telling him that it was all a misunderstanding.

"There is nobody named Jonathan! Oh my god, Vernon! You're going to scare someone to death!" Chloe was frantic as Vernon kept on kicking the door ruthlessly.

"That's good, so I don't need to kill him with my own hands! That bastard dares to fuck my woman, but too scared to face me? HAH!" Vernon continued kicking the area around the hinges to vent out his rage.
