Divorced My Scum Husband, Married His Evil brother

765  Chapter 765

Vincent woke up early in the morning.

He would go to court today to settle this divorce with Chloe.

He knew there would be a second or even third trial for hearing, but a mysterious but powerful man backed Chloe, so Vincent knew this would be his one and only chance, or else Chloe would leave him forever.

"Sir, the car is ready," Khloe said as she entered the master bedroom carrying a suit for him.

Vincent grabbed the suit and wore it by himself. He stared at Khloe, who was obviously just Priscilla with dyed hair and color contact, and said, "You shouldn't come."

"A—Are you sure, Sir? I also want to support you. I would be good if you could be with Mrs. Chloe Gray again," Khloe said, though she sneered in her heart, knowing that Vincent was fighting a losing game right now.

He had no hope of winning against Vernon because he was just a failed man who had become the butt of many people's online jokes.

"Chloe doesn't need to see someone resembling her standing by my side. She needs to see that I, Vincent Gray, feel very lonely without her," Vincent turned his head to stare at the loving wedding picture of him and Chloe hanging over the TV.

He smiled as he imagined that beautiful day.

Chloe was beautiful. She was so bright and beautiful that it made him insecure about himself. He was scared that Chloe would leave him once she grew bored of him.

'Because all I have is money. I'm so scared she will leave me for someone younger, richer, and more powerful. That's why I must beat her to submission…' Vincent thought. 'And now I must defend my crumbling marriage just because Chloe decides I'm not good enough for her.'

"I will leave now. I am going to stand alone," Vincent said determinedly. "I don't care if I have to face a giant. I will return with Chloe by my side."

Khloe watched as Vincent left the master bedroom.

She stared at his back, and the corner of her lips perked up, "That is so funny, Vincent Gray. Look at you, being all brave and ready to fight a giant. Do you not realize that you have no hope? Or maybe you're just desperate at this point?"

"Honestly, I also don't understand why I love you," Priscilla shrugged. "But I know I must be Mrs. Khloe Gray no matter what. I will be your wife, and if you don't want to have a baby with me, I will force you with some drugs, hihi~."

"Ready for today, honey?"

"I—I'm ready," Chloe said as she finished helping Vernon with his tie.

She twirled in front of the mirror to ensure she looked proper with her cream-colored suit and knee-length skirt. She buttoned the suit to hide her baby bump, as she didn't want anyone outside of her family to know it, not yet, at least.

She looked like a proper working lady, which was funny because she never wanted to be an office worker before.

Vernon stared at Chloe in the mirror and then put his hands on her shoulders, "You look so good wearing this suit. If you want, I can build you a new company that you can handle, sort of trying out if you are fit to be an office worker. Maybe you had a dream as a career woman before? Of course, you can do it after you've given birth to our child. I don't want you to get exhausted."

Vernon tried to remember if Big Sis Chloe had a dream to become a career woman.

He asked her once about her dream, and she replied;

-

'My dream is to have a family. I want to take care of my family as a housewife, but if I'm yet to reach that simple dream, I'd want to be a kindergarten teacher.'

-

Chloe smiled, but she shook her head, "I never intend to be a career woman. My degree is in child education, and I was thinking of becoming a kindergarten teacher back then because I like kids and love taking care of them."

"Well, I don't need to be a kindergarten teacher now because I'm currently taking care of Mackie, the boys, and…" Chloe looked down and rubbed her belly gently. "Our baby and I'm pretty sure you still want more, right?"

"Heheh, you got me," Vernon was a little embarrassed. He wanted more kids because he thought life would be nicer if surrounded by the fruits of love between him and Chloe.

"Maybe you think I'm not really a great and flashy career woman, and I sometimes think they look amazing…" Chloe murmured. She saw those women in power sometimes, and though she had a bit of yearning for them, she knew that being a career woman was not her calling. She preferred to have a happy family and take care of them all.

"Why are you ashamed of that?" Vernon frowned. "Do you not realize that you saved me?"

"I… saved you?"

"If you didn't teach me how to be a decent human back then, I would've turned into a monster like Vincent and Vaughn, probably an even bigger one," Vernon admitted. "You know how to treat me right. You taught me there are still good people, and there is a light at the end of the tunnel. You just have to keep walking until you reach it."

Chloe didn't really remember all the things she taught Vernon back then.

She just played with him and taught him many common decencies, and how to be a good boy, just like how she taught those little boys she cared for when she took the part-time job as a babysitter to her neighbors.

But maybe that was what Vernon truly needed back then, someone who genuinely treated him like a human being and treasured him a lot as a person.

"Well, I'm glad that I met you back then, Vernon. I don't want a good man like you to turn evil just like Vincent. You have so much potential to be a great man."
