Divorced My Scum Husband, Married His Evil brother

Chapter 463 463

Vernon's suggestion caught Vincent off guard. He didn't expect his Little brother to be able to make a suggestion that helped him escape his clutch without letting go of the advertisement job.

By taking his time reading the document, Vernon might start having doubts about whether being the shareholder of that cosmetic brand was the right choice, especially with how he was so dedicated to his job.

Unfortunately, Vincent had no way to say no to Vernon's suggestion. Because it was logical and very professional, something that he had to applaud his Little bro for.

Vincent scoffed, "Alright then, you can sign the advertisement contract and keep the shareholder one for yourself. But I expect you to sign it as soon as the advertisement is running in public, I still need to introduce you to those people working in the company, you're going to be a big shareholder for them as well."

Vincent might not be able to say no, but he still had his way of pressuring Vernon, "Remember, Vernon, I don't like how my goodwill is being questioned. I agreed with you because you're my Little brother."

"It is exactly because you're my Big brother, that's why I have to rethink about this!" Vernon insisted. "I don't want to look lazy in front of you, Big bro! If you will give me this much share, then I will also give my all!"

"Haha! Alright, alright, you got me there," Vincent got up from the sofa and walked towards Vernon. He stood in front of Vernon and stretched his arm.

Vernon frowned for a split second, ready to punch this bastard in the face if he dared to attack him first. But what Vincent did was far more shocking than straight-up punching Vernon.

He put his palm on Vernon's head and patted it a few times, like patting a little kid's head, "You're a good boy. I know you want to look cool in front of your Big bro, but I don't mind taking care of you. After all, I've always been the one who took care of you when you were a kid, right?"

Vernon was stunned. He looked up at Vincent and started wondering what was in this bastard's mind. Of course, it wasn't him.

Vincent bought him gifts often, but he rarely played with Vernon because he was always busy with school.

At some point, Vernon started to resent his Big bro because Vincent didn't seem to be bothered when Dorothea hit him.

That, and…

'The one who has been taking care of me is Chloe, you insufferable bastard,' Vernon replied in his heart.

But he had to keep his farce and nodded obediently, "Thank you, Big bro. I will try my best as always."

Vincent was pleased with Vernon's obedience and seriousness. He was using this project to make sure that Vernon could be controlled, but seeing how obedient and serious he was at his job, Vincent couldn't help to think that his Little brother was very adorable.

It was adorable, like a kid holding a toy sword, swinging it randomly, and imagining himself as a big knight that could slay a dragon. Vincent wanted to make Vernon stay adorable, a non-threatening boy at his mercy.

Vincent returned to the sofa in a better mood, "Anyway, how's your girlfriend? How long have you been with her, and when will you two get married?"

…

"Why did you ask, Big bro?"

Vincent shrugged, "I'm just curious, and I want to make sure that I will have Chloe by my side by the time you get married. It'd be embarrassing if I don't have my wife when I attend your wedding."

? "No need to worry, Big bro. I have no plan to marry her anytime soon, she's still busy with her problem, for now," Vernon said.

"Oh? You also have a problematic woman?" Vincent sighed. "Don't get yourself a pain in the ass, Vernon. A woman needs to be a support system for her husband. You need to find an obedient woman who won't ask questions or dare to fight back."

"Don't be like me, married to a woman who isn't grateful for what I provide for her," Vincent said. "If you decide to break up with this girlfriend of yours, let me know, I'll also punish her for being an ungrateful bitch."

"I have no intention of breaking up with this woman," Vernon said. He had no hesitation, as he claimed. "And she's not problematic. It's the people in her past that makes things complicated."

Vincent raised his brow, "You seem to be so in love with her, huh? Makes me so curious about her identity. Too bad we cannot share her, huh?"

Vernon was trying so hard not to explode right here, right now. He kept imagining Chloe's injuries, all her wounds, tears, and traumas. If he blew it away right now and punched his Big brother, then all his hard work would be for nothing, and he couldn't keep Chloe by his side.

Meanwhile, Secretary Maria kept observing Vernon's expression as Vincent kept talking about fucking Vernon's girlfriend, and her suspicion grew bigger.

Thus, she opened her mouth and said;

"I don't think Mr. Phoenix Gray wants to share the woman with you, Sir. After all, his girlfriend must've been Chloe Gray herself, correct?"

Vernon and Vincent darted their eyes simultaneously at Secretary Maria, but their expression differed.

Vincent had a look of confusion, and Vernon had a look of terror.

"I know you're a dying hag, Secretary Maria, but you shouldn't be throwing nonsensical accusations at my Little brother. Didn't I tell you many times that he is my only family?"

"Just look at his expression, Sir," Maria pointed. "He is shocked, surely that means something more than just a nonsensical accusation."

Vincent frowned. He turned his head towards Vernon instead and saw the look of terror.

"Huh," Vincent furrowed his brow. "Never expected you to make that kind of expression, Vernon. Care to explain?"
