Divorced My Scum Husband, Married His Evil brother

753  Chapter 753

Vernon went out with this bitter feeling in his heart.

He disliked the fact that his Big bro was a loser now. He wanted him to struggle and fight back. Now Vincent was just a regular nobody that wasn't worth a single punch.

Meyer sat in the driver's seat while Vernon sat at the back.

Meyer checked on his boss from the rearview mirror. He saw that Mr. Gray's mood wasn't good, and it was understandable.

Vernon was so excited, thinking that he could finally get the revenge he wanted, only to see that sorry excuse of a man.

"Sir, do you want me to do something to Vincent Gray?" Meyer offered. "He has no more power now, and I… I can hurt him if that's what you want."

"No need, it's not worth it," Vernon refused. "He's nothing but a broken man, no use beating a dead horse."

"Drive me to my apartment, I want to meet with Chloe. She texted me just now, saying that she's already at home."

"Yes, Sir."

**

Amidst his annoyance and disappointment, he got himself some good news from the text sent by his beloved.

—

From: My beloved.

"Come home soon, darling. I want to tell you in person.

Meyer parked the car in the basement of Phoenix Tower and then asked, "Do you want me to do something else today, Sir?"

"No, just go home and have a date with Diamond," Vernon said.

Meyer's eyes widened, "D—Did Mrs. Phoenix Gray—"

"Yes, she told me about it," Vernon clarified. He chuckled as he found Meyer's reaction funny, "Why? Do you really think that I won't know about it? Diamond has been grinning stupidly in the office whenever she texted with someone after you two went on a date, so I assume that person she texted with must be you."

Meyer gulped.

Based on his contract with Mr. Phoenix Gray, he was a hitman and, thus, was forbidden to form any intimate relationship with a woman outside because he might have a slip-up and spill everything to that woman.

"I—I'm sorry for this, Sir. I—I will break up with Diamond," Meyer said.

His heart was hurting when he said he'd break up with Diamond.

Because honestly, they were a match made in heaven, just like Chloe and Vernon.

Diamond and Meyer were both professional workaholics to a fault and prioritized careers over everything. So they clicked together.

After a passionate and intimate night, they realized that they were also physically suitable, aka, they had great sex and thus decided to date.

They had been keeping their professionalism and intimacy in balance, so their relationship wouldn't hinder any task or mission in the office.

'But I don't know what will Mr. Phoenix Gray do to Diamond if I refuse to leave her. He's not the kindest, and I've made a breach of contract,' Meyer thought.

Despite his heartache, he knew this was for the best to protect his girlfriend.

Vernon frowned, "What are you talking about? Why should you break up with Diamond?"

"… Sir, I've breached our contract. I am not supposed to have any intimate relationship," Meyer said.

"Oh, hmm…" After remembering that clause within the contract Meyer signed, Vernon was thinking for a moment. He disliked disobedience, but this was a different case.

"I will give you an exception, Meyer, just for this one," Vernon said. "I will allow you to date Diamond, and I will also allow you to marry her if you think you two want to step up the relationship."

"But this is only because Diamond is my right-hand woman. She is the most competent woman I've ever met in my life, and she's the best subordinate I have," Vernon said. He went silent momentarily, adding, "Also… because the matchmaker is my wife. So I will give you an exception."

"Sir—" Meyer was overjoyed. He didn't know what to do right now. He wanted to hug Mr. Phoenix Gray but knew he'd only get punched in the face. So he simply bowed respectfully and said, "Thank you so much, Sir. I will make sure to treasure her, and I will keep working for you."

"Don't thank me, you should thank Chloe," Vernon deflected. "She sees that you two are a match, and I allow you two because I know Chloe will be mad if she knows that I didn't give my permission for you to breach the contract."

Meyer nodded, "I will keep protecting Mrs. Phoenix Gray until my last breath, Sir!"

"Good, I will leave now. Go spend your time with Diamond," Vernon said before he left the car.

He went up the elevator to the penthouse and unlocked the door with his fingerprint.

He opened the door and was greeted by the smell of spices from the kitchen.

Vernon walked towards the kitchen and watched Chloe, who was busy stir-frying some vegetables, as she prepared lunch for them. She wore a pink apron, and her chestnut hair was tied at the back.

She was so busy cooking that she didn't notice Vernon was standing behind her for at least ten minutes.

"Honey, I'm home."

"Ah—!"

Before Chloe could react, Vernon hugged her from behind and kissed her neck.

Chloe didn't struggle and rested her head on Vernon's pecs, "Don't startle me like that, you're scaring me!"

"Hehe, sorry, I keep staring at your nice ass when you're busy cooking," Vernon said as his hand went down and squeezed Chloe's ass.

His heart felt so warm when he realized that Chloe's body had returned to its original shape when she was still healthy before marrying Vincent.

She had been eating adequately, which was a relief because Chloe needed so much nutrition during her pregnancy.

"H—Hey, release me, Vernon. The stove, I still need to turn it off."

"Oh, yeah…" Vernon reluctantly drew his hand from Chloe's ass and released his bear hug.

Chloe turned off the stove first and then turned around to face Vernon. She tiptoed to kiss him, "Welcome home, darling. Do you want to eat, or hear the good news first?"
