Ch. 371..375: Divorced My Scum Husband, Married His Evil brother Chapter 371-375
Chapter 371
[Warning: upsetting topic.]
"Thomas Davis groomed her since she was twelve years old."
"TWELVE YEARS OLD?!" Vernon's eyes widened out of shock. He reacted instantly because he didn't expect things to be so bad.
"And how old was he when he started grooming her?"
"In his mid-thirty, Sir," Diamond replied, which became another shock for Vernon.
"Does that mean--"
"Yes, Thomas Davis has been grooming this young lady for about seven years. He was already married to Chelsea Davis when he groomed his current girlfriend. The age gap between them is about twenty years old, the girl will be twenty in December, while Thomas Davis will be forty in February next year."
"Holy shit..." Vernon couldn't help but curse when he heard the report. He didn't expect that seemingly unassuming guy he saw in a picture to be such a monster.
"How did they meet?"
"Online, Sir," Diamond replied. "The girlfriend was a child raised in a broken family. She has nobody that could make her feel safe, and Thomas Davis came to manipulate her into giving herself."
Diamond paused for a moment. To be honest, she was also upset by the news that she had to deliver.
She knew there were many terrible people out there, such as Vincent Gray. She knew how much of a monster he was just by seeing how he ruined her best friend-- Chloe's life.
But Thomas Davis was probably just as bad, or even worse than Vincent. Because he targeted and manipulated a vulnerable child who needed protection the most.
Vernon noticed that Diamond's breath was heaving. She must've been upset by this information as well.
Thus he allowed her to calm herself for a moment before telling her to continue.
"Sir, this bastard-- he robbed this girl's virginity when she was fifteen. He was thirty-five at that time."
...
Both Vernon and Diamond went silent after that revelation. The mood was low because they couldn't help but get angry at this bastard, Thomas Davis.
Vernon found it weird that he had this feeling in his heart. But he truly wanted to bring justice and crush this big stinky bug.
At first, he just wanted to stir the pot, indirectly revealing to Chelsea that her husband was cheating. He would be satisfied as he saw Chelsea's life come crumbling down, just like how she ruined Chloe's life by leeching on her for ten years straight and how she dared to make a scar on Chloe's beautiful face.
'But this is a whole different matter,' Vernon thought. 'I can't let this monster run around freely. Not when I know he might target another young girl.'
Vernon was thinking for a while before he decided, "Diamond, there is a change of plan."
"I'm all ears, Sir," Diamond replied solemnly. Though, she wouldn't lie that she felt excited in her heart. She just couldn't wait to crush this monster who dared to prey on a naive little girl.
"At first, I thought I would just stir the pot to ruin Chelsea's marriage life. But when I got this new information about Thomas Davis, I think I will ruin both of them-- in a different manner."
Vernon went silent for a moment, tapping the desk with his fingers before he gave an order;
"I will think of a way to throw this man to prison. Don't worry, pedophiles got the worst treatment by everyone in the prison," Vernon said. "But for now, we should twist the way I can ruin their marriage."
"Diamond, call my agent and prepare an attack against Chelsea Davis. Stalk her for a few days, and then attack her at night," Vernon said. "Don't kill her, nor harm her in a terrible way. I don't want Chloe to sympathize and try to reach out to her sister."
"Then what kind of attack do you want us to do, Sir?" Diamond asked. She was actually expecting Mr. Phoenix Gray to hurt this woman badly. "Do you have a soft spot on her now, Sir?"
"Soft spot? Pfft... HAHAHA!" Vernon's laugh filled the room. He kept laughing until there was a drop of tear squeezed at the edge of his eye.
He laughed as if he had just heard the funniest joke ever.
Then the laugh suddenly stopped. Vernon suddenly glared at Diamond with his hawk gaze that made her gulp out of fear.
"S--Sir?"
"Don't you ever dare asking that stupid question again," Vernon said coldly. "I have no sympathy for the woman who hurt my Chloe. That bitch deserves all the pain I will inflict on her after what she has done to Chloe for the past ten years."
"She constantly guilt tripped Chloe and forced her to send even more money to them. Do you know what that means?"
Diamond shook her head in response.
"That means for each time Chloe begged Vincent to give her family more money, she would face so much abuse-- both physical and verbal abuse. She endured everything just so her family could have a better life."
"But that 'family' of hers took advantage and constantly guilted her," Vernon said. "They don't have an ounce of sympathy or pity for Chloe, so I will have none of that for them as well."
"Chloe is far too kind to punish her family, so I will be the one who punishes them instead."
Diamond swallowed her saliva twice. She knew that her boss' hatred wasn't aimed at her. But she witnessed how all the hatred and viciousness emanated in his eyes.
He was not playing this time. There was no mercy for Chloe's family and the rest of the people who hurt her.
Diamond had mixed feelings about this.
She was happy that her boss loved her best friend so much that he would flip his world upside down for her.
But at the same time...
What if Chloe knew about everything?
What would they do if Chloe found out about this? Surely she wouldn't be happy with how vicious Vernon's method was.
She forgave people easily. It wouldn't be surprising if Chloe forgave her family with a simple guilt trip.
Chapter 372
The possibility of Chloe discovering the truth scared Diamond more than anything else. She was a woman who seldom had fear of anything.
But the idea that her best friend would despise her terrified her more than anything.
'I've never felt this attached to someone in my life. I'm scared that Chloe would find out about all of this. But at the same time, I have the same idea as Mr. Phoenix Gray,' Diamond thought. 'I want to absolutely crush all the people who hurt Chloe. I don't even feel pity at them, seeing how much Chloe suffered in her life.'
Thus, Diamond took another deep breath. She had to be ready because this was the path she chose to protect her homegirl.
"Then, what kind of execution do you want, Sir? Please specify so I can inform our agent," Diamond said, mentioning the man who worked secretly with her boss to do the dirty deed on a few occasions.
Vernon smirked maliciously, "Come closer, let me whisper it to you."
Diamond followed his instruction, and Vernon whispered the plan he had in mind.
Diamond's eyes widened for a second before she nodded, full of assurance, "I see that you prefer not to use brute force, Sir," she commented.
"I don't need to do brute force. They are all shitty people, I will let them destroy themselves from the inside."
**
Chelsea checked her watch as she put all her stuff into her bag. It was almost midnight, and she had just finished tutoring another student.
She became a private tutor as a side job to make ends meet because there was no way she could provide a decent living for four children, a deadbeat husband, and an old mother solely with her salary as an elementary school teacher.
This was the first time she had to do a side job to make ends meet. Things went awry after that stupid bitch Chloe left Vincent.
Now Vincent was reluctant to send more money to her family because Chloe wasn't by his side.
He was overcome by grief, and he never visited her house anymore because he said there was too much memory of him with Chloe, which would only sadden him even more.
"Ugh, that bitch has no pity," Chelsea cursed at her little sister again. It had become her habit to throw all the blame on Chloe. "That ungrateful woman ruins everyone's life. Does she not have an ounce of pity for her own family? Why did she run away anyway? Because Vincent was too busy with work?"
Chelsea rolled her eyes annoyedly as she walked to the parking lot, "Oh come on. She's so ungrateful. Of course Vincent is busy, he is a fucking billionaire. He needs to run his billion dollar business! Now, all she did was just ruining everyone's life except herself!"
Actually, Chelsea tried to reach out to Chloe a few times. She wanted to sweet talk Chloe into visiting the house, and then she could lock her into a room.
Then she would call Vincent to the house, so that bitch would have nowhere to go.
Too bad Chloe refused to answer all of her calls or reply to her texts. She even refused to answer Judith-- their old mother's call.
So she was unable to trap that bitch and return things to normal.
'Well, I wish Vincent would move on... I don't understand what he saw in her...' Chelsea sighed, full of pity. She wanted things to return to normal, so she wouldn't need to do a shitty side job just to make ends meet.
But she couldn't help but wish.
She wished Vincent would move on from Chloe and find another woman... such as her.
Chelsea felt hotter all around her body when she imagined a handsome, ultra-rich, loyal, and overall perfect man like Vincent fell in love with her.
'He will definitely shower me with love and money. I don't understand why he doesn't choose me? What am I lacking compared to Chloe? I'm much more beautiful, and definitely much more capable than that ungrateful whore.'
'I would be the happiest woman on earth if I married Vincent,' Chelsea started smiling stupidly as she continued to imagine her wedding with Vincent. 'Would he buy me a yacht? Or maybe a private jet? He is so kind, he must've showered me with a lot of gifts too....'
Chelsea was enjoying the dream she had... until the face of her stupid husband suddenly popped up in her head.
Chelsea's mood reached an all-time low when she remembered how her husband kept asking for money because he couldn't land a single job!
"I'm so fucking close to divorce that good-for-nothing man, seriously!" Chelsea stomped her heels as she walked to her car.
All her loud complaints and stomps were echoing in this dim basement parking lot. She happened to be the only one inside the parking lot, so it made her somewhat creeped out.
Maybe it was her fear, but she felt someone was watching her from afar...
She stopped for a second and then looked over her shoulder. She wanted to check if she was being followed.
But there was no one...
Unfortunately, the dim lighting in this parking lot obstructed her eyesight. Even with her glasses, she still couldn't see anyone around.
She gulped nervously and decided to run to her car.
Tap! Tap! Tap! Tap!
The sound of her heels echoed around the parking lot louder than before. Her breath started to get heavier as she used all her strength to reach her car.
Luckily, her car was parked under a dim lamp, so it wasn't difficult to find.
She fished the car key out of her bag in a hurry and accidentally dropped it right under her car.
"Damn it!"
Chelsea crouched and tried to reach for the car key.
"Come on..."
It took her a while to finally grab her car key. The moment she raised her head, she saw a shadow of a figure standing right behind her.
Chapter 373
[Warning: Violence.]
The moment Chelsea raised her head, she saw a shadow of a figure standing right behind her.
Chelsea turned around in an instant and saw a man fully covered from head to toe in black, leaving only his scary eyes staring unblinkingly at her.
That man was wearing gloves, holding a knife in his right hand, glinting dangerously under the dim light.
"HELP--MMPPH!!" Chelsea wanted to scream out of instinct, hoping someone would hear her scream and help her.
But the man in black quickly wrapped his palm around her mouth and pressed tightly until Chelsea couldn't move her jaw to bite or scream.
SLAM!
The attacker pushed Chelsea's body until her back hit her car. She tried to struggle as much as possible, kicking and punching at random, but her attacker was too strong. This guy wasn't budging, no matter how much she tried to kick and punch him until she lost her energy.
She was left powerless as he leaned forward and clenched her jaw tighter than before.
Chelsea's eyes widened as she stared at her attacker's eyes.
There seemed to be no remorse in his eyes, making her wonder if this was an attack planned by someone who hated her or if it was a random attack because she happened to be a vulnerable woman in an empty parking lot.
The attacker leaned closer and whispered in her ear, "Your husband sends his regards."
Chelsea's eyes widened, and her breath stiffened as she tried to process what the attacker had just said.
But she didn't have time to ponder for long because the man suddenly placed the knife's sharp edge right on her left cheek.
Chelsea quickly realized what this man was about to do.
"MMPH! MMPHH!!" Chelsea struggled desperately. She started tearing up because she didn't want her beautiful face ruined.
She wouldn't have a chance with Vincent anymore if she became ugly!
The attacker slowly pressed the knife until it drew blood from Chelsea's cheek.
Then, he made a deep cut from the edge of her lips until it reached her earlobe.
Chelsea already fainted the moment the attacker finished the left cheek. The shock from physical and psychological pain was too much for her, especially after realizing that her face had been ruined.
The man didn't hesitate to carve Chelsea's right cheek as well. After all, it was to complete the order from his boss.
After the attacker carved both sides of her cheeks, he grabbed a bandage from his jacket and wrapped half of Chelsea's lower face to ensure she didn't die out of blood loss.
The order from his boss was to create a deep scar that would be very difficult-- or even downright impossible to fix without intensive surgery, something that Chelsea definitely couldn't afford.
So it would leave her with a pair of ugly scars on her face.
The attacker unlocked the car door and threw Chelsea inside her car.
He quickly left the scene, and with that, the order from his boss-- Mr. Phoenix Gray, had been completed.
**
Vernon was sitting in the living room at night. He was waiting for the news from his agent because he told that guy to execute it right before midnight.
His agent had been stalking Chelsea for three days after Vernon gave the order. Diamond sent much of the information to the agent before he carried out the order, giving him enough information to know where and when to strike.
And tonight was the moment he was supposed to attack.
Vernon tapped the carpet with his heel repeatedly. He was nervous, of course.
He knew that his agent was a professional. There were many instances that he had to do an underhanded method or else he'd be harmed first in a cutthroat business circle, and his agent never disappointed him.
But this was different. He wouldn't be nervous if it was about him. He was mostly reckless when it came to his own well-being.
But this problem involved Chloe, and he was ten times more cautious and nervous when Chloe was in the picture.
He didn't want Chloe to get hurt in any way, not after what she had experienced for the past ten years.
Vernon kept checking his phone until the clock hit the 00.00 mark, then he suddenly got a call from his agent under a private number.
Vernon answered the call and waited for the agent's report;
"Sir, the execution went well."
"Did you make it just like what I ordered?" Vernon asked. He wanted to make sure that the agent didn't accidentally kill Chelsea because all she wanted to do was to ruin her life, not end her.
"Yes, Sir, carved two deep cuts on her cheeks. She will not be able to hide it unless she undergoes intensive plastic surgery," the agent replied. "I bandaged her wound and stuffed her inside her car, to make sure that she would survive. All according to your given order."
"Including the words that you need to whisper to her?"
"Yes, Sir."
Vernon let out a relieved breath as if a big burden on his shoulder had been lifted.
Chelsea was the first one on his list, and he didn't need to do anything after this regarding Chloe's family. Because that family would soon crumble on their own.
Then, after it crumbled to the ground, he would deal with the bigger bastard, Thomas Davis.
"Good, I will send the payment in cash as always."
"Thank you, Sir. It's always nice having a business with you."
Beep.
The call ended, and Vernon threw his phone to the table.
He slumped on the sofa and rubbed his forehead for a while as he tried to let the stress out of his system.
Nothing was more nerve-wracking than dealing with Chloe's problem because he felt he was treading on thin ice.
One simple misstep and his beautiful life with Chloe would be shattered.
'If only you're as ruthless as I am, Chloe....'
Chapter 374
'If only you're as ruthless as I am, Chloe…' Vernon thought. 'Things would be so much easier if you can be a bit more cruel against those who hurt you.'
Vernon stared at the ceiling, and the face of the most beautiful woman on earth appeared in his imagination. His cold heart started to feel warm when the image of the woman smiled at her, 'But, I don't think I will fall in love with you if you're a cruel woman. The only reason why I have a proper childhood is because of you.'
'You're the one who saved me from the abyss, but you're also the one who plunged me back until it hurt me terribly….'
The smile on his lips dissipated. Whenever he recalled many happy memories with Chloe, his mind automatically recalled that one bad memory.
It was just one bad memory, but it was strong enough to cloud over all the good that Chloe had done for him when he was growing up.
"Why did you say that, Chloe? Am I that worthless to you until now, when I have everything to spoil you?" Vernon murmured.
He knew that he always claimed that women would flock to him once he was as rich as his Big brother, including Chloe.
But deep down, he also felt sad and insecure because of it.
He wanted Chloe to like him for being himself, not because he was filthy rich…
Vernon felt another heartache that he couldn't stop.
Because the only way to stop it was to confront Chloe and ask about what she said about him back then.
'She will probably try to dodge it. She is timid, after all….'
Vernon murmured Chloe's name a few times. It was his way of making himself feel better whenever he was experiencing heartache caused by a bad memory.
Vernon kept on doing this for a while until he heard a soft voice calling his name from the kitchen.
"Vernon?"
Vernon opened his eyes and turned his neck towards the kitchen. He saw Chloe wearing her pajama and also a sweater. The pajama and sweater looked so loose on her thin body, giving an image of pitiful beauty that Vernon wanted to protect.
Chloe walked towards Vernon and sat beside the big guy who slumped on the sofa, "What's wrong? You look tired…."
"It's… nothing," Vernon replied weakly. "I just had a business call." He said while pointing at the phone on the table with his chin.
"Business call?" Chloe frowned. "At this hour? That's not really… um… ethical…"
"Hahah…" Vernon found it funny when Chloe was talking about ethical stuff.
There was nothing ethical about him.
Nothing was ethical when you had to fight Vincent Gray because to beat the devil, you had to be a devil yourself.
"It was an important call. Don't worry, I've got it all sorted out," Vernon replied. "Why are you still up so late though?"
"I just finished checking Mackie's homework."
"Like a teacher?"
"Mhm…" Chloe nodded. "I always check her homework to see if she made a mistake. If she did, I usually tell her how to solve the question correctly."
Vernon felt warm in his heart. He remembered how Chloe often did the same thing when he was a child.
He was naturally gifted since he was a kid, just like his Big bro.
Some of the mistakes he made were because he didn't pay attention or was simply too lazy to study, so he wrote all the wrong answers and called it a day.
But Chloe would teach him slowly how to solve the problem. Even though he already knew how to do it, he usually pretended not to know anything, so he could spend more time with Chloe.
'She is still a great mother. Even under a series of terrible abuse from Vincent, she still takes care of her daughter meticulously….'
'How I wish I could spend more time with you for the past ten years, Chloe. I went through a lot, I feel like I could snap and go crazy at any moment.'
"Um…" Chloe lowered her head, embarrassed as she noticed that Vernon was staring at her with such a hot gaze.
It was a man's gaze toward his beloved woman, and Chloe wasn't used to it. She used to be looked down on, so she became shy when she was stared at as if she was a long-lost treasure.
"U—Um… Vernon…"
"Hm?"
"Could you not stare at me like that?"
"Like what?" Vernon raised his brow. He was just slumping on the sofa and gazing at beauty. He didn't even do anything, and Chloe looked so embarrassed and her ears turned red.
She even fidgeted uncomfortably, which Vernon found to be so cute.
"Um…" Chloe found it hard to describe the kind of stare Vernon gave her. But it was definitely a loving stare that she wasn't used to getting.
"J—Just turn around and stare at something else," Chloe said.
"What if I refuse?" Vernon chuckled. He straightened his back and then leaned closer toward Chloe until their faces were only an inch apart.
Vernon mischievously rubbed the tip of his nose against hers and said, "I can also do this if I want. Remember that taking care of my personal needs is also part of your job?"
"A—And staring at me so close is one of your personal needs?" Chloe asked. The more she talked with Vernon, the more she didn't understand him.
"Indeed, it is one of my personal needs," Vernon replied. "It makes me feel warm all around my body whenever you're within my reach. The closer you get to me, the better it feels in my heart."
He finally lowered his gaze, staring at Chloe's boobs, which looked so juicy despite the owner's thin body.
He grabbed Chloe's boobs and started fondling them gently.
"Ah! V—Vernon?!" Chloe was startled by his vulgar touch. "W—Why do you need to do that too?"
"Hm? Your tits are also one of my personal needs."
Chapter 375
"Hm? Your tits are also one of my personal needs," Vernon replied with a devilish smirk pasted on his lips.
Vernon gently pecked Chloe's lips, something that he never did before. He would usually kiss her passionately until Chloe was drowned in his lust.
Chloe had never been pecked lovingly nor kissed passionately by Vincent anyway. Hence, both experiences were very much new to Chloe.
Vernon pecked her lips once more. He was holding himself not to grab the back of her head and pushing her head towards him.
Deep down, he wanted to make a give her a deep kiss, exploring every inch of her lips and twining their tongues.
He wanted to keep it slow, so he wouldn't accidentally hurt or scare his beloved woman.
Vernon continued staring at Chloe while his other hand caressed her inner thigh.
"Ah! Uhh… Uhm… V—Vernon, that's—" Chloe stuttered before she bit her lower lip. Vernon's hot palm was exploring her inner thigh, and his thumb naughtily fiddled with her pussy.
She wore nothing but thin pajamas, so every touch from him gave her a strong stimulation.
"What's with your strong reaction? I didn't do anything, I was just caressing your thigh," Vernon grinned mischievously. "I didn't do anything vulgar, but why is your face red?"
"Y—You—!" Chloe was left speechless.
How could Vernon lie straight through his teeth? He said he didn't do anything, but his thumb was fiddling with her pussy!
"S—Stop this, Vernon— Ahhnn! " Chloe moaned spontaneously when Vernon suddenly played with her labia.
He dug into her pussy with his thumb and fiddled with her clit brazenly.
"Ah— Ahn! Uhmm… aahh!" Chloe tried to hold off her moan to no avail. Vernon kept staring straight, observing all the changes on Chloe's face.
He observed how her ears got redder, and after playing with her clit, Chloe's face turned tomato red.
She closed her eyes repeatedly but couldn't help but look down to see what Vernon was doing with her pussy.
Whenever she closed her eyes, she would squeeze a bit of tear that would glisten her eyes, making her sweet doe eyes ten times more enchanting than usual.
She would look down to check and then lift her head slightly to stare at Vernon with pleading eyes as if she wanted Vernon to do something more than this but was too embarrassed to say it.
'So cute…' Vernon claimed in his heart.
He never thought observing Chloe while she was overwhelmed by lust was something he would do more.
Vernon kept observing Chloe's face absentmindedly. Thus he didn't count how long he had been teasing Chloe's pussy until she couldn't help it anymore.
"V—Vernon-- please stop, I'm going to… uhnnn!" Chloe grasped at Vernon's strong arm while her lower body trembled.
Squirt! Squirt! Squirt! Squirt~!
Chloe's body jolted a few times. Her pussy juice spurted out like a faucet and completely wetted her pajama pants. She hugged and rested her head on Vernon's arm. She tried to dig her nail deep into his skin, trying to stop him from playing with her pussy because she had just squirted.
"Vernon, please… uhnnn!"
Vernon finally stopped after realizing that he had played for too long. He raised the hand wet by her pussy juice and started licking each of his fingers, from thumb to pinky.
"Should've drunk it straight from your pussy like before," Vernon murmured before he checked on Chloe.
Chloe closed her eyes while resting on his arm. She tried to breathe through her slightly opened mouth and was also drenched in sweat.
'Did I play too much?' Vernon wondered.
He was so focused on observing her expression that he forgot about his hand that continued to play with Chloe's pussy, as if his hand had a mind of its own.
Vernon pulled a few sheets of tissue from the table and wiped Chloe's sweaty face. He allowed her to rest until she opened her eyes and separated herself from Vernon.
She sat ashamedly. She felt uncomfortable as her pajama pants were damp because of her squirt.
So she clamped her thighs together to guard herself because she feared Vernon would play with her pussy nonstop like before.
Vernon raised his brow as he watched Chloe's behavior and asked, "What? Do you think I'd want more?"
"Y—You dont?" Chloe threw the question back at him.
"Well…."
Of course he wanted it, but he didn't want to exhaust her, especially with her fragile body.
She was in the process of getting healthier, and Vernon had already told Diamond to start looking for a good dietician in New York to help Chloe recover faster.
He knew there was something more important than just sex.
Though, he wouldn't lie….
Vernon glanced down at his crotch for a split second. He was also only wearing a loose shirt and boxer briefs, making his thick cock so obvious.
'Would be nice if she could give me a quick blowjob to let off the steam a bit,' Vernon thought. But he quickly warded off the idea as he didn't want to force Chloe to do anything.
Meanwhile, Chloe obviously noticed that Vernon's cock was fully erect. He was trying to hide it by covering it with the small sofa pillow, but it was futile as it was way too big and too obvious to hide now.
She didn't understand why Vernon became so reluctant to touch her or ask her to do something of his bidding.
Chloe could not and would not refuse if Vernon told her to suck his dick. It was part of her job and…
'I… kinda want to do it…' Chloe thought. Her cheeks reddened again, and she lowered her head shyly.
"Y—You sure you don't want more?" Chloe asked again. She fidgeted as she got embarrassed by her own question.
Vernon took a deep breath and looked away, trying to distract himself as he didn't want to force her to do anything. She just had too much trauma.
"No, you can go to sleep now, Chloe," Vernon replied. "You should wear new pajamas too by the way."
