Divorced My Scum Husband, Married His Evil brother

Diamond stared down at Shailene. Her eyes couldn't get any more intense and more malicious than this. Her hatred for this woman had been doubled-- no, ten times more than before.

'It's funny that she tried to convince me with that crazy eyes and grin she has. Maybe she doesn't realize how deranged she looks right now. She doesn't have any grace and professional aura in her as a psychologist,' Diamond thought. 'Or maybe she could pretend to have one, but all of her pretense vanishes when she is in a desperate situation.'

'Hmm, maybe I shook her conscience too much with my story. Which is funny, since she doesn't feel an ounce of pity for that boy she killed.'

There was a long silence between them, and Shailene waited until she got an answer from Diamond.

However, instead of a straight answer from her, what Shailene got was a smirk. Diamond gave her a mysterious smirk full of meaning, and Shailene dared not to think about the worst possible scenario in her head.

"Wow, Miss Walsh, you're so good at convincing people, I almost believed you for one second there," Diamond said.

"R--Really?"

"Mhm," Diamond nodded. "But you must know one thing about me."

Diamond's mysterious smirk turned malicious as she continued, "I am Chloe Gray's best friend."

Shailene's eyes almost popped out of their socket. She thought she misheard it just now, "W--What did you just say?"

"I am Chloe Gray's best friend," Diamond repeated. "I am her closest confidant. She is my sister from another mother. She is the only person I can ever feel at ease. Do you know why?"

Diamond bent her back until her face was so close to Shailene's that the tip of their nose almost touched. It gave a zoomed-in effect on Diamond's pair of malicious black pupils, making her ten times scarier than before, "Because she is the kindest woman I've ever met. All you did is judging and slandering her, you piece of shit."

Shailene felt that blood had been drained out of her body. She felt so weak and limp that she almost fainted, "B--But Dorothea recommended you. You must be one of her people, right? How could you befriend Dorothea when you are Chloe's best friend?!"

"Haha! Now, this is funny," Diamond ridiculed. "Do you think you know everything that is happening inside the Gray family, when you're not even within their picture? All you did is just judging and pulling conclusion out of your ass."

"Well, if you want to know about Dorothea. Then you should know that Dorothea is all well right now. She is on Vernon's side, and she is the one who told us about you," Diamond said. Of course, this one was just a lie, or maybe wishful thinking as well. Since there was no movement from Vincent, Dorothea hadn't told him about Chloe and Vernon's relationship yet. So she believed that Dorothea was on their side.

"N--No way," Shailene shook her head in disbelief. "H--How could this be? I already told Dorothea that Chloe is a poison that needs to be eliminated!" Shailene's voice was shaky, but she clung to the hope that Diamond was bluffing.

"Well, maybe she just got a moment of clarity and realized that you're just full of shit," Diamond shrugged. She stood straight again. She crossed her hands in front of her chest and raised her brow. She acted high and mighty in front of Shailene as she should.

"I guess you already guessed by now, I do not work for Vincent Gray. I do in fact-- work for Vernon Gray, the man you fall in love with," Diamond stated boldly. "And if you know how crooked he is, you won't fall in love with him. But I guess, a stupid woman like you has a rose-colored glass in your eyes, so you see him as a perfect man, not a crooked bastard who only has his eyes on Chloe."

Shailene was in complete shock that her body simply shut down. She was unresponsive while staring at Diamond with her mouth gaped wide.

Diamond could end it here. She believed that Shailene's dream about Vernon had been shattered already.

But she wasn't satisfied. She came here because of a personal grudge and would be satisfied once the blow had been delivered.

"Now, let's return to our main topic. I'm here for therapy, remember?" Diamond smirked. "Well, as you know, I really, really hate someone who's similar to Carter Fallingham. He was manipulative, evil, and greedy, just like you."

Shailene's heartbeat accelerated as she guessed where this topic would lead them. She shook her head vehemently, "I did nothing! I'm not as evil as him! I've always been compassionate!"

"Compassionate? Are you kidding me?" Diamond scoffed. "Let me tell you all of your sins, Miss Walsh."

Diamond took a deep breath and dropped the bomb one by one, "First, you're the one who manipulated Vernon until he believed his love for Chloe. You slandered Chloe in front of Vernon, Dorothea, and me. You called her a toxic bitch, manipulative, a groomer, and a poison. Do you not realize that you're projecting your own sin to an innocent lady?"

"Second, you told Dorothea about Chloe and Vernon's relationship. You've crossed the line as a professional. You shared another client's secret, and you should be jailed for it. Because you don't know the risk that you put towards all of us just because of your stupid obsession towards Vernon."

"Third, and well, this is a personal matter I simply cannot let go," Diamond said. "I know what you did, Shailene Walsh. I know that you failed during your internship as a young psychologist."

"I don't know why you were so cruel back then, maybe because you're just inherently heartless. But I know that you pushed a boy around the age of fourteen to suicide, right? You got a fourteen years old boy who was bullied at his school, just like my brother, at your mercy, and you killed him with your words."
