Divorced My Scum Husband, Married His Evil brother

"Sir, there is rice on your cheek."

Chloe wanted to pick the rice from Vernon's cheek, but Vernon grabbed her wrist instantly. He glared at her as if he wanted to kill her right now.

"Who allowed you to touch me?"

"Ah—I was just…."

"LEAVE!" Vernon shouted and staggered Chloe instantly. She tried to pull her wrist.

"I—I will leave, Sir. P—Please release my hand!"

Vernon released his grip off her wrist, and Chloe lost her balance. She fell to the ground butt first, "Ah!"

Vernon watched as Chloe winced in pain and tried to get up. He scoffed, "Don't act cute in front of me."

"B—But I'm not—"

"Did I allow you to speak? Leave!"

"Y—Yes, Sir!"

Chloe tried to get up with difficulty, as she was wearing a heel, but she struggled and decided to just take her heels off and scrambled to the door.

Vernon watched as her sister-in-law left his office. He was still trying to process what had just happened.

Chloe now knew he liked a banana milk that her daughter liked and ate messily.

It wasn't a big deal, of course. It could be fun for some.

But Vernon disliked being seen as fun or adorable. He was disgusted just thinking about it, especially when it was Chloe who saw him. She didn't want to be seen as fragile or adorable in front of Chloe.

"Fuck!" Vernon wanted to throw away the lunchbox of an oriental fried race he was eating. But then stopped at the last millisecond and continued eating, "Why is this food so damn good anyway? Fucking hell!"

Thus, the devil CEO continued to eat while grumbling nonstop. He thought it was unreasonable for him to get addicted to a stay-at-home mom's homemade cooking.

Diamond laughed when she saw Chloe come out of their CEO's office while carrying her heels in her right hand and two small cartons of banana milk in her left.

"Did you see it?"

Chloe looked at Diamond while her heartbeat was still racing, "The secret stuff is banana milk?"

"Yes! Ahahahah!" Diamond laughed more. "That's why I don't understand his whole secret thing. He has a whole fridge full of banana milk!"

"Does he not like coffee or tea? Or even booze?"

"He likes them all and drinks them on occasions. But he always drinks banana milk every noon before or after lunch in the office, hihihi…."

Chloe couldn't laugh freely like Diamond, but she had one thing in mind, 'I wonder if I have to stock big cartons of banana milk in his apartment fridge now.'

Vernon cleaned the lunchbox and put it inside the lunch bag that Chloe had brought to the office. He had to admit that Chloe's food was… tolerable.

'Heh, that's the only reason I keep her, aside from playing with her body, of course,' Vernon thought. 'Oh, I also want to use her for my future work with my brother. I think I can use her in some ways to get what I want.'

'And after that, I can ditch her.'

Of course, it was all just Vernon's plans for now. Because the wheel had yet to start.

But, he felt something was wrong when Chloe signed that contract. It felt like he was the one who got trapped with her., It made him feel restless for no reason.

While Vernon was busy with his thought, he heard his phone ringing.

He checked the caller first, and the edge of his lips perked up;

—

"Yo, big brother!" Vernon picked up and greeted enthusiastically. He had to put enthusiasm in front of someone he wanted to work with. It was a good way to show that you're always excited about the project.

"I want to talk about the proposal that you gave. Come to my office, and we can talk," Vincent said.

"Oh? Are you sure you don't have any meetings? I thought you were busy."

"I've cleared my schedule this afternoon to talk about your proposal. It's interesting, and I've been thinking about venturing out."

"Oh, that's great, big brother. I will come right now," Vernon said. He hung up the call and tidied his shirt before leaving his office.

He saw Chloe and Diamond sitting and chatting, and they went silent instantly once Vernon came out.

He started to suspect those two were gossipping about him behind his back. But that was the last of his worry, they could gossip all they wanted, but that didn't change the fact those two were working under him.

"I'll leave to meet someone," Vernon said as he pressed the lift button.

Diamond followed behind and asked, "Do you need to be accompanied, Sir?"

"No, it's private. Just stay in the office," Vernon glanced at Chloe, sitting on the sofa, looking at him as if she was ready for any order.

'Too bad I can't take her with me for now. I want to see my brother's expression when I bring her, heh.'

Chloe saw the smirk on Vernon's lips, which made her nervous. Whenever Vernon smirked, there must be something devious in his head.

But surprisingly, Vernon said nothing else and entered the elevator. His eyes didn't leave Chloe until the elevator closed and went down.

"Ah, that is right, Vernon. Look at her dumb expression. She is obviously clueless about everything," Vernon said to himself. "She can be a good pawn, just to make sure that it won't be too obvious."

Chloe and Diamond stared at each other for a moment, then Chloe asked, "Where is he going?"

Diamond shrugged, "Not sure. He is always like that. He often had mysterious clients I don't know and will return with so many bullshits that I got to do until I have to take overtime."

"Ah, I see… okay then…."

"What's with you? You look worried."

"It's nothing," Chloe replied. She had a gut feeling that made her somewhat worried. "I was just worried that Vernon might be working with my ex-husband for a project or something…."
