Divorced My Scum Husband, Married His Evil brother

126 Chapter 126



126 Chapter 126

"Sir, it might not be my place to speak like this. But I don't think you should trust your Big brother's words. After all, we both know that he is not a good person, right?" Diamond said. She didn't want her homegirl to be slandered without proof!

"I don't trust him, not in the purest sense, at least."

"What do you mean, Sir?"

"… My sister-in-law acted exactly like what he described," Vernon said. "I still can't believe what he said 100%, but I must be careful nonetheless."

"But Sir—"

"Don't question me more, Diamond. This is a private matter between my sister-in-law and me. I don't like a pesky secretary," Vernon said, basically shutting down Diamond, who wanted to continue arguing.

Diamond pursed her lips instantly, but she couldn't help but feel frustrated for Vernon.

'He exploded in rage because Chloe didn't see him and all of their sexual activities as serious, but he is also the one who made it that way by not trying to be gentle with her! What kind of unbelievably childish behavior is this?!'

Diamond always knew that her boss was a big manchild. But she didn't expect that he could be twice unbearable when facing Chloe.

'Seriously, what is his problem with her? Why is he so harsh on her?!'

**

Chloe sat in silence and checked her watch.

Two hours had passed since Vernon left with Diamond, and it was already three P.M.

Chloe texted Diamond, asking if Vernon's meeting would finish soon or not, and she got a reply from her;

-

Diamond: It will end soon. He mentioned that he was hungry, so you should prepare lunch now.

Chloe: Okay, thanks, Diamond.

-

Chloe got up from the sofa and went to the pantry to prepare the lunch for Vernon. She cooked according to Vernon's tastebud when he was a kid, and there was no protest from him, so Chloe continued cooking just like she cooked the little Vernon.

She entered Vernon's CEO's office with a tray full of food. Chloe was stunned when she saw that almost all the statues and paintings, even small decorations, were gone in Vernon's office.

The furniture had been replaced, so it seemed that Vernon left nothing untouched. He literally destroyed everything.

"Now I see why Diamond is hysterical…."

Chloe put Vernon's lunch on the table and started looking around to check the stuff Vernon destroyed yesterday.

"Honestly, I don't understand why he was so mad at me. Did I answer it wrong? But isn't that what he wants? He used me just for his relief, so I assured him that I feel nothing for him…." Chloe sighed. "Look a this, he destroyed everything just because he is angry! If he's still the same little Vernon, I will spend at least one hour scolding him for throwing such a huge tantrum over nothing!"

Chloe chided this imaginary little Vernon in her head while looking around, finding it very annoying to see many items that suddenly disappeared from the office.

Vernon and Diamond had just finished the meeting and returned to the top floor. When they arrived, Chloe was nowhere to be found, and the CEO's office door was opened.

Diamond could hear Chloe's voice inside the office but couldn't catch what she was saying. But she could hear her calling Vernon's name in a bad tone many times.

Diamond panicked instantly, thinking that Chloe might have been letting out some steam. You were bound to do that when you had a shitty boss like Vernon Phoenix Gray.

'But not like this girl! You're going to be in deep trouble!'

Diamond took the initiative by blocking Vernon's path and said, "Sir, let me talk to Chloe first."

Vernon looked at Diamond with hawk-like eyes that made her tremble in fear, "This has nothing to do with you. Step aside."

"S—Sir, Chloe is…"

"Step aside, or you will regret it, Diamond."

Diamond gulped. When Vernon threatened her with that, it wasn't only her job that'd be on the line. But her whole family's job and businesses.

'I'm sorry, girl….'

Diamond finally stepped aside and watched as Vernon swaggered past her, heading straight to his office, whose door was wide open.

To be honest, he also couldn't hear Chloe fully. But he did hear his name being called in a bad tone many times.

So he thought his Sister-in-law might have shown her true face, the face of a scheming gold digger who wanted to play around with his heart.

But when he entered his office, he saw his sister-in-law taking a picture of an empty wall and then started searching for something on Google.

Then, she started chiding, "Little Vernon, do you not realize that you can't just destroy things when you're angry? You have had this problem for so long…."

"Let me find a cheap but good painting on eBay. Maybe we can find something similar to what you destroyed before," Chloe murmured, and she opened eBay to search for cheap but good paintings that would fit the wall. She wanted to make this place less intimidating, "Hmm, maybe a flower painting would be good? Ah, no, no, Vernon said he hates flower painting so much because that's a girl thing, hmm…."

Vernon silently closed the door and leaned on the wall. He crossed his hands and listened while observing his sister-in-law right now. She seemed busy with her own world, talking with this little Vernon in her head, scolding him like he was actually there.

She was chiding nonstop and even told this imaginary little Vernon not to be a bad boy, or he'd be punished.

Somehow, it also reminded Vernon of his Big sister Chloe. She was bright, active, and fussy. She wouldn't hesitate to scold Vernon when he destroyed things in the Gray mansion.

Vernon had had this habit of destroying things since he was a kid. Because no matter how many things he destroyed and how 'valuable' they were. Everything was simply worthless for him, and since nobody was there to reprimand or even scold him, Vernon was often destroying things just for fun.
