Divorced My Scum Husband, Married His Evil brother

Shailene bit her lower lip as she tried to defend herself by doing the right thing;

"But it's true. There is a big chance that woman has groomed Vernon, right?" Shailene said. "I refuse to believe there's a woman who could make a scum like Vernon become so obsessed without any kind of mental manipulation when he was a child."

"Especially with how she was portrayed like an angel by Vernon. That misogynistic bastard has no right to put one woman in a higher position than the rest!" Shailene spouted out of spite. She felt it was unfair to her and all the exes that Vernon had hurt before.

She knew she was being very unprofessional here and would never do this if his client wasn't Vernon.

"But I guess… I am still in love, so much in love with that bastard…." Shailene murmured. "I don't even know why I am like this…."

Shailene was thinking about whether she should drop the case and stop helping Vernon altogether.

However, deep inside her heart, she still wanted to communicate with Vernon. Hopefully, one day, there would be a moment when he finally realizes his mistake and apologizes to Shailene.

"…And love me once more…."

Shailene knew there was no place for her, but was it wrong for her to hope?

After all, men's interests are erratic. They could love a woman in the morning and another in the evening.

"At least I know he will return here eventually. I know well that he's not the type to open up easily to someone else," Shailene said. "The only reason why he chose me is because I already know the identity of his Big sis Chloe. So he has a little courage to contact me again."

"Chloe, what a terrible woman…." Shailene murmured the name of the woman who destroyed her relationship with Vernon. "I wonder what manipulation you used to be able to trap Vernon for more than a decade."

Vernon drove to his apartment and rushed to his penthouse on the top floor. He felt antsy as he wanted to meet his Big sis Chloe to confirm his feelings.

He unlocked the door with his fingerprint and slammed the penthouse door open.

"Chloe!" Vernon called her name out loud. His voice echoed inside the now-clean but empty penthouse.

Vernon checked the time, and it showed half past ten.

"Damn…" he cursed in a low voice. "Did she fall asleep already? But isn't it too early for that?"

Vernon walked to the kitchen and didn't see any food on the table.

He knew that it was his fault who said he would eat outside, so Chloe didn't need to cook anything for dinner for him.

But he still felt wronged.

He realized the absence of Chloe and her dinner had ruined his mood completely.

Usually, he would see Chloe sitting on the sofa while waiting for him. Once he returned home, she would reheat the dinner and let Vernon eat before she returned to her room.

Now it was empty. There was no Chloe and also no dinner.

"Urgh!" Vernon ruffled his hair frustratedly.

He was already in a bad mood when he yelled at Shailene. But now his mood worsened with Chloe's absence.

Vernon sat on the sofa in the living room. He turned on the TV for background noise but stared emptily at the screen.

His mind was flooded with fear.

'',

A fear that his feelings were false, and everything he had done up until now was just a byproduct of manipulation because he knew well that his Big sis Chloe wasn't an evil woman.

He sat in a daze until he heard a voice coming from the kitchen.

"Vernon?"

Vernon turned his head immediately and saw Chloe wearing a simple pajama. Her hair was still damp. It seemed that she had just taken a bath.

"Big sis…" Vernon murmured slowly.

Chloe looked at Vernon with worry. She approached him and stood before Vernon, who sat on the sofa. "I heard someone shouting when I took a bath, so I went up here."

"Are you okay? Your face looks a little red…." Chloe gently placed her soft palm on Vernon's forehead to check his temperature. She was shocked by the result because Vernon usually had a natural warm temperature, but tonight was slightly different.

Thus she asked, "Vernon, what happened to you? Why is your temperature so hot?"

Vernon didn't react. He kept staring at his Big sis Chloe, who looked so anxious just because he was a little warm.

It reminded Vernon of when he was just a kid and Big sis Chloe was only 17 years old.

Vernon caught a fever after stubbornly running around outside during winter and didn't wear any winter jackets.

He was a cocky child who would defy anyone's order and suggestion to prove that he was a strong boy.

Which led to him getting a bad fever.

Big sis Chloe was the first person to realize that he was sick, and she would always place her palm on his forehead to check before saying;

"I think you have a fever. Maybe you're too tired of work. Let me make chicken noodle soup first, and then you should drink medicine and sleep, okay?"

Vernon kept staring, and his eyes glinted with an obsession for Chloe.

Before Chloe removed her palm from his forehead, Vernon suddenly grabbed her wrist and pulled her to his side.

"AH—"

'',

Chloe lost her balance and fell towards Vernon's embrace. Her boobs hit his face, and he quickly wrapped his hand around her waist to ensure she couldn't escape.

"V—Vernon?!"

"Stay like this for a while. I want to feel you," Vernon said firmly while he buried his face in Chloe's boobs.

"B—But—" Chloe tried to wiggle her way out of Vernon's embrace because it was embarrassing, but the more she tried to escape, the more Vernon tightened his arm around her waist, and he buried his face even deeper until she could feel his breath circulating around her cleavage.
