Divorced My Scum Husband, Married His Evil brother



To some extent, Chloe realized that Vernon and Vincent were similar.

They got jealous easily, and they were both extremely controlling and possessive.

They wouldn't rest until they made sure they knew whatever Chloe was doing, even if it was something as simple as grocery shopping. 

Chloe tried to stop this habit on Vernon at first. She wanted to teach Vernon how to be less possessive. 

In fact, Chloe talked about it many times, and even though Vernon always said yes to everything he said, he'd return to his old habit of getting jealous over the smallest thing. 

'I guess it's a family trait at this point,' Chloe thought. 'But it's okay. At least I'm assured that no matter how jealous or angry Vernon was, he would never hurt me.'

It was the real difference between Vernon and Vincent.

Vincent unleashed everything on her, tormenting, taunting, humiliating, and abusing Chloe to no end whenever he was angry or annoyed. 

But Vernon usually unleashed it at the other party involved with Chloe, or as Diamond usually said.

—

'Whenever Mr. Phoenix Gray got so jealous or angry of whatever you're doing. He would work ten times harder, and would turn into an iron fist tyrant that would tell me to do so many things at once. He becomes a crazy workaholic.'

'So please, Girl. Why don't you try to make him less angry, so I won't suffer in the office, okay?'

—

Chloe chuckled, 'Well, I guess I can do that much. It's not like I'm going to abandon this good life that I have with Mackie and Vernon.'

Mackie already went downstairs because she still had a few winter break assignments she had to do. Meanwhile, Chloe sat patiently in the living room, waiting for Vernon to get ready for work. 

"I'm going to the office now, darling," Vernon said as he fixed his tie. "Don't worry, I will be home before dinner, so we can eat together today."

Chloe got up from the sofa and approached Vernon. She handed him a box for lunch and said, "It's almost noon already, I can't cook so much for such a short time, so this lunch box is the only one I can come up with for you."

Vernon smiled. He took the lunch box from Chloe's hand and leaned down to kiss her cheek, "Everything that you make will always taste good. I can't wait to meet you again after my work's done."

Chloe giggled. She tiptoed and kissed Vernon on the lips, "I can't wait to meet you too. Please don't overwork yourself, and you should take a quick rest if you're too exhausted, okay?"

"Mhm," Vernon nodded. "I will return before dinner."

Thus, Chloe followed Vernon until he entered the elevator and went down. She was happy with her current life with him and wished to spend the rest of her life with Vernon. 

"But I can't do that," Chloe murmured. "I won't be able to have a happy life with Vernon, not until we can take down that bastard Vincent."

Chloe's doe eyes turned sharp as she thought of a way to help Vernon kick Vincent out of their lives completely. She knew she couldn't go to a divorce court right now and demand her right. Vincent would just suppress her by bribing the judges.

She had to make sure he had no more power to do anything, and all he could do was accept the divorce.

"And after that, I will truly gain my freedom," Chloe muttered. "I can live a normal life with the man I truly love and the daughter that I treasure."

Vernon entered the office in a good mood today. Diamond arrived about an hour earlier, and once she saw the permanent smile on her Boss's face, she realized he must've hit it last night.

"You seem to be very happy, Sir. Did something happen?" Diamond asked, teasing Vernon.

"Yeah, something amazing happened last night," Vernon replied truthfully. "You might see the little version of me soon, running around in the office, probably making a mess as well."

Diamond was surprised by the fact that her Boss had already talked about having a child, "Boss, don't you use… you know… condom, or at least did you pull it out before that?" 

"No," Vernon replied. "I was about to use a condom, but Chloe said that she wants to bear my baby. How could I refuse that invitation?"

Vernon told his story proudly in front of Diamond, whom he already saw as a good friend at this point, "So we went all in, and since both of us are still very fertile, I think it won't be long for her to get pregnant with my baby."

"But, what if she got pregnant too early, Sir?" Diamond asked. "Surely, you don't want the baby to be born before you two get married, right?"

"I already told Chloe that I will marry her in at least three months from now," Vernon said. "That's why, we should work hard, Diamond. We have to make sure that everything is perfect so we can take down Vincent as soon as possible, and Chloe would get the divorce without any meaningful struggle from Vincent."

Diamond nodded, "Sure thing, Sir. I can't wait to attend your wedding with Chloe as well. I already brought the purple dress for the wedding, I can't wait to wear it!"

Vernon chuckled, "Okay, is there any update about the cremation?" Vernon asked. He couldn't wait to get his hands on Maria's ashes. 

He believed that old bitch deserved a worse death than just getting strangled, probably a torture that lasted for days until she couldn't endure it anymore and died a slow and painful death.

He wasn't this cruel usually, but Maria was simply a monster in human clothing. She was cruel and unfeeling, with a twisted faith in Vaughn and Vincent. 

But at least he could get revenge on her by getting her ash. That bitch didn't deserve a proper funeral for all the heinous things she did.
