Divorced My Scum Husband, Married His Evil brother

"W—WHY WOULD I FALL IN LOVE WITH MY OWN SISTER-IN-LAW?!" Vernon yelled out loud, but there was no hostility in his eyes.

He looked very shy, though…

'I never said anything about YOU falling in love with her. But go off, I guess….'

"Well, that's all the advice I can give you, Sir. Please excuse me, I have lots of reports to do," Diamond turned around and left Vernon's office.

"H—HEY! GET BACK HERE! I'M NOT LETTING YOU OFF FOR SAYING THAT I FELL IN LOVE WITH HER!" Vernon yelled again, but Diamond ignored her and left him alone.

"Ugh! That damned secretary! If she's not that competent, I would've fired her already!" Vernon complained. But really, there was no way he would fire Diamond. She was just that competent and quick to do her job as a secretary. He was willing to pay her really high because he knew that Diamond's skill was worth all the salary she received.

Besides…

'She's the only person that Chloe opens up to, I won't kick her out,' Vernon thought.

He sat silent for a while, pondering whether he should follow Diamond's advice or not.

"Ugh, I can't believe I have to cater to a woman's needs. If it's not for Chloe, I won't even think about doing this," Vernon complained again.

In the end, he grabbed his phone and opened contact. He was about to call Chloe, but he stopped right before he pressed the green call button.

He felt a little embarrassed for an unknown reason, like a little boy mustering his courage to confess.

Thus, instead of calling her— Vernon decided to open Chloe's contact and texted her;

—

To: Big Sis Chloe;

Come to the office. I want to talk about something.

—

He curled his lips, realizing he had forgotten to change Chloe's contact name. He was so used to refer to her as Big sis Chloe that he used the same name when he got her contact… long ago.

"Ah! Who cares about that, just send this thing already, Vernon!"

Vernon pressed send and quickly threw his phone on the sofa. He couldn't handle the embarrassment in his heart, even though he just wanted to get closer to Chloe, so she would open up…

'So I can protect her….'

Chloe had been sitting in her car for hours. She had no intention of going to Vernon's office as she was still trying to avoid him.

'This chapter is updated by N(o)V(e)lB(i)n.',

She was too scared to know what Vernon would do to her, and her paranoia told her that he would probably berate her, call her a crazy bitch, and then kick her out of the apartment.

"I haven't saved money yet… how am I supposed to feed Mackie without returning to Vincent?" Chloe wondered. "Maybe I should steal something from Vernon's apartment, or maybe steal from his black card instead? Surely, a few thousand wouldn't hurt him at all…."

…

"Okay, scrap that, I'm not THAT ungrateful. He has been helping me so much," Chloe murmured.

As she was busy with her plan, her phone suddenly vibrated, and she got a text.

Chloe thought it was a text from Diamond since it was almost lunch, and she hadn't come to the office yet.

But when she checked the name of the texter, she almost had a heart attack;

—

From: Cute little Vernon

Come to the office. I want to talk about something.

—

Chloe's hand trembled, and she threw the phone on the passenger seat. She thought Vernon would be too busy to talk to her today, but it didn't seem to be the case.

"Okay, you can't avoid him, Chloe. But you got to think of a way to reason, you CANNOT be kicked right now, especially when Mackie is still recovering from bullying at her school!"

Chloe started thinking of many paths she could take, especially considering whether she could get a job in another company.

But then, she remembered what happened back then, when she was literally going from one office building to another, hoping she could get any job that she could land, to no avail because Vincent forced all those companies to reject her application.

"So, my only choice is…."

Chloe gulped as she realized that she had no choice other than to sell her body to Vernon again, hoping that would be enough to satisfy Vernon so he wouldn't kick her away.

She hated it. She hated to be turned into an item of sex because she was desperate, and she didn't even know why Vernon liked her gross body.

But…

"Just like what I said back then. I will do anything for my daughter's wellbeing. Even if that means I have to sell my body to him."

Chloe felt reluctant and sad because she had to be a prostitute to the little boy she practically raised until he was fifteen years old.

But you got to do whatever to survive.

**

Chloe parked her car right beside Vernon's car. She took a deep breath to brace for the storm that would come soon.

"You can do this, Chloe. This is for your daughter," Chloe grabbed the lunch bag and walked to the main lobby.

She used the VIP elevator to the highest floor. She went out of the elevator and called Diamond. The latter was busy doing reports while listening to music with her AirPods on her desk.

"G—Good afternoon, Diamond," Chloe greeted her nervously.

'',

Diamond didn't seem to hear her, so Chloe tapped her shoulder.

Diamond looked up, and her eyes widened instantly. She got up from the chair and hugged Chloe without thinking twice.

"GIRL!"

"Wha—!"

Chloe was surprised by such a tight hug, but she didn't hate it. She hugged Diamond as well.

Diamond grabbed her homegirl's arms, and before she could say something, her eyes caught something on Chloe's forehead.

'Lots of concealer?' Diamond wondered. She noticed that Chloe's makeup was uneven because her forehead looked so cakey, but the rest of her face was covered with light makeup instead, so it didn't blend well.

Curious about this finding, Diamond touched Chloe's forehead, and the petite woman shrieked in pain instantly;

"AW!"
