Divorced My Scum Husband, Married His Evil brother



"I'm wondering when would be the best time for me to file for divorce from now? A week? A month? A year?" Chloe asked. 

Vernon went silent after hearing that question. He already had the answer, but he was still considering whether he could actually finish Vincent by the time Chloe filed for divorce to the court. 

Chloe was a bit worried because Vernon went silent, so she asked, "Vernon? Is there something wrong?"

"No, there is nothing wrong with your question," Vernon replied. "I'm just calculating if I can finish him off in a month. If you want the answer of your question, then you should file for divorce next month, mid march. It should be a good time because Vincent will take time to recover. Since his company is crumbling right now, there is no way he will be able to fight us. I want it to be a smooth sailing so you don't need to worry about anything, Chloe."

Chloe nodded, "Well, I will be following your instruction nonetheless. Just tell me when you think it's the right time. I will be patiently waiting, though…"

Chloe lowered her head, looking at her belly, but she said nothing as she hadn't confirmed it yet. But she began to experience the early symptoms of pregnancy, just like what she felt when pregnant with Mackie. 

Nevertheless, she didn't want to keep her hopes up. She was already thirty-five and about to hit thirty-six in a month. It grew increasingly difficult for women to get pregnant once they hit a certain age.

Thus, Chloe had to buy a pregnancy test pack first to see if she was actually pregnant with Vernon's child after they had sex during Christmas, about two months ago. 

Vernon didn't understand what Chloe was saying. He thought she looked down because she was sad since Vernon couldn't make it faster for her to divorce that bastard.

"Chloe, look at me," Vernon instructed. 

Chloe lifted her head and stared at Vernon, waiting for her to speak his mind.

He took a deep breath and said, "Don't be sad, alright? I will try to make it as fast as possible. I also want you to officially leave that bastard as soon as possible. But I have to whittle him down first, making sure that he won't be able to use his influence or money to do anything."

"Eh—Uhm… alright…." Chloe nodded. She knew that Vernon must've misunderstood her expression or gesture, but she didn't want to say anything because she thought her pregnancy should be a surprise. 

Vernon smiled when he saw that Chloe didn't look sad anymore. He asked, "Do you want to accompany me to the office? I'd love to have you sitting on my lap while I'm reading documents. It helps me to work in full focus."

"T—That's not possible!" Chloe's cheeks reddened as she thought that Vernon was being unscrupulous and perverted. "Y—You won't be able to focus if I sit on your lap. You'll keep grinding your uhm—big thing on my butt!"

Vernon chuckled. Though they had done it quite often, it seemed that Chloe was still shy whenever she tried to reject Vernon's advance. But she turned into a horny seductress, even better than a succubus when she was in the mood for him. 

"Well, that's true, I might not be able to hold back. But hey, it's fine, right? We're going to marry soon anyway, I'd love to do you here, in my office."

Chloe shook her head, "I—I have to talk with Diamond. I have a promise to spend time with her once I'm done talking with you!"

"Really? Ah, that's a bummer," Vernon chuckled. "Alright, you should go now, Love. I guess I'll see you later for dinner."

"Mhm, I will make you a banana pie as a dessert after dinner. I know Mackie will love it as well," Chloe said. She hopped from the table and twirled to dodge Vernon before he could hug her again.

Vernon had that habit of embracing her in a tight hug until she felt suffocated. He said it was his way to ensure Chloe wouldn't run away, though there was no point in running away from Vernon when he always treated her like a treasure, which Vincent failed to do. 

Vernon watched as Chloe left his office and sighed, "I have to make it faster. I don't know how long would it take for Vincent to do something crazy."

Vernon already had Vincent under his control, but that didn't mean there was no possibility of Vincent doing something he didn't expect that might turn the tide.

After all, they were brothers, and both knew how unpredictable they could be.

Chloe's face was so red after she left Vernon's office. Diamond caught her expression, and the latter grinned mischievously at Chloe, "Oh? What do we have? Why are your face so red, gurl? Did you do something with Mr. Phoenix Gray inside."

"I—I didn't do anything, I swear!" Chloe tried to defend herself. But the more she tried to refute it, the more obvious it got. "W—Well, we kissed just a few times. But that's all!"

"Mhm, sure," Diamond teased. "By the way, do you want me to accompany you to buy a pregnancy test in drug store? I'm sure that you must be feeling it already."

Chloe gasped, "H—How do you know?!" 

Diamond rolled her eyes, "Mr. Phoenix Gray told me in detail about what happened with you two during Christmas night. He was so proud when he said you two did it without condom. Since both of you are very fertile, especially him in his prime age right now, I just assumed that you will get pregnant sooner or later."

Diamond glanced at Chloe's belly and commented, "I guess I'm not wrong, huh?"

"W—Well, I do experience few early symptoms of pregnancy, just like what I felt when I was pregnant with Mackie eight years ago," Chloe confirmed. "But you're right, I have to get a pregnancy test pack first."

"Then what are we waiting for? Let's go grab a lunch, and then buy it in drugstore!"

**

Chloe and Diamond ate their lunch in peace. They were chatting about many things, but Chloe mostly talked about the boys and how she had enrolled them in primary school and preschool.

"Luckily, we don't need to forge their birth certificate and stuff. It's not hard to transfer them to a new school since they have no more guardian except me, and it's easy to retrieve their documents in their previous apartment," Chloe said. 

"That's good," Diamond nodded. "I'm glad that everything works out in the end. I can't imagine the pain those boys went through because of Chelsea, Tommy, and Vincent."

Chloe already knew that Diamond was the one who planned Tommy's arrest and his public humiliation on a live broadcast.

"Thank you for taking him down, Diamond," Chloe said. "You're truly an amazing woman."

"Hahah, no need to flatter me, gurl. You know that I did it because I have a personal feud against pedophiles," Diamond said. She lowered her gaze and scoffed, "My life as a model was hell because of those pedophiles. They are truly bunch of disgusting bastards."

"Diamond…"

"It makes me wonder if my view of men has been skewed because of those filthy men I worked with in modeling industry," Diamond murmured. "I keep failing to find love. I can't seem to find a good man after bunch of blind dates and dates from dating apps."

"… what kind of man are you looking for, Diamond?" Chloe asked. 

"Uh…" Diamond was thinking for a while. "I like a man who's strong, but not rough. Cool and composed, but not heartless. I want him to work. He doesn't need to earn the same with me, because I know that Mr. Phoenix Gray basically overpaid me for my current position. But I do want him to work a good job."

"Lastly, I want him to treat my friends and family as his own," Diamond said. "That means I want him to respect you and Mr. Phoenix Gray as well."

"I see…" Chloe hummed for a moment. She was unsure if it would work but had a candidate in mind. "How about I set you up with a man that I think will fit you?"

"Huh? You know a man that will fit me?" Diamond frowned. "Are you sure, gurl? I mean, no offense, but you are not the type who'd socialize with men, and I'm pretty sure that Mr. Phoenix Gray will go on a rampage if he ever caught you talking and joking with another man intimately."

Diamond imagined what kind of rampage Vernon would do if he ever caught Chloe in that position, and then she shuddered as the image was too grotesque for her.

"I only know one man, and I'm not sure if I can call him a friend. But he is a good man, and I think he will fit your criteria."
