Divorced My Scum Husband, Married His Evil brother



A week had passed since the divorce trial between Chloe and Vincent Gray. 

The news, both the formal and informal ones, talked about it because it was such a big shock that the loveable billionaire was actually a monster who repeatedly cheated, mentally and physically abused his wife, neglected his daughter, imprisoning and alienating his wife until she had no friends.

On top of that, there was video proof showing him attacking Chloe before and after the trial, cementing his reputation as a wife-beater who also happened to be mentally deranged.

The internet was also flooded with the same news, many YouTubers and Tiktok creators covered the topic, and some memes depicted Vincent Gray as a wolf in sheep's clothing.

After all, he was once a very successful and well-loved billionaire for his fun and cool personality. 

But that wasn't what pissed Vincent the most.

He sat in the same master bedroom, still in the same mansion, eating the same stale breakfast made by one of the maids or by Khloe. It didn't matter anyway. All of them tasted the same, bland and soulless.

It felt like prison food instead of a homemade breakfast. 

He didn't get arrested after the failed attempt to attack Chloe because it was still a failed attempt, and thus he only had to pay a fine.

Truthfully, Vincent didn't lack money, even now.

After Vernon purchased the Gray company, his prosperity was guaranteed for the rest of his life. He didn't even need to work as long as he didn't have any ridiculous spending. 

Which wasn't hard for him because he already lost his willpower to live.

"What's the point of having money when I can't use it to make myself happy?" Vincent told himself. "This doesn't matter. Everything doesn't matter when I can't be happy…"

Vincent had tried many ways for the past week to make himself happy.

He had liked to dress nicely before, so he bought a new set of custom-made suit. 

But then he remembered Chloe, who always prepared the best suit style to give him the charming edge over other businessmen.

He liked golfing with his business partners and the ladies before, but when he tried to golf alone, the only thing he remembered was Chloe.

He vividly remembered how Chloe was so skittish when Vincent brought her on a golf date when they were still in high school. 

She never tried golf before, and it was awkward.

But once she was able to do it, she was so happy that she hugged Vincent tightly to express her joy.

'That innocent beauty…' Vincent recalled. 

He liked being surrounded by young women before, so he tried to call five hot girls to come and join him in bed, only to kick them all after five minutes.

Why? Because he felt this master bedroom wasn't supposed to be touched by anyone except Vincent and his wife, Chloe.

"Ex-wife…" Vincent murmured. "But I still want to call her MY wife. I can't let go."

He tried many things, but each of them had memories of Chloe.

As if Chloe had become part of his life, and now that she was truly gone, he realized he couldn't relive any of his moments without thinking about Chloe's sweet smile. 

Every time he remembered Chloe, he felt that his heart was being stabbed, and he wanted to cry, thinking about the one that got away. 

"Ah, what's the use of crying now? Chloe is not mine anymore. She is with a bastard who ruined my life," Vincent lamented.

He had been watching the news to spend his day, listening to every news about him. They all called him a monster, a wolf in sheep's clothing, and an abuser.

Truthfully, Vincent felt nothing about them. He wasn't even upset, knowing that he was indeed a monster. 

He had known about his monstrosity for a long time. He just thought that Chloe would be able to endure him, so they could live comfortably for the rest of their lives.

But what actually pissed him off was the coverage of Chloe and Vernon's relationship.

Vincent had set up a few reporters in front of the court. He planned to walk out of the courtroom first and put on a sad face, telling the media that he and Chloe got a divorce, but he still got visitation rights. 

He would show great remorse in front of the camera, showing that he was just a broken man who felt the world crashing down on him.

But what happened was that Chloe and Vernon used those reporters as their way to announce their relationship. Chloe even defended her relationship with Vernon in front of the media, causing a stir and a divide. 

People were divided on whether to call their affair an infidelity or not. But most people, especially women, praised Chloe for her courage to walk out of a toxic marriage and end up with a much better man.

"I've to say that I like how Miss Chloe Gray dares to walk away after realizing Vincent neglected their children!"

"I know, right? That's what a mother does! You must realize your child's safety is the most important, so you must do anything, even sacrificing your marriage if that's the cost of saving your child's innocence!"

"Besides, Vernon Phoenix Gray sounds like a good man who steps up. Chloe is definitely a woman who prioritizes her daughter the most, so our Mr. Phoenix Gray must've stolen the daughter's heart first before stealing the mother's."

The two female hosts giggled together as it was obvious that they were supporting Chloe and Vernon's relationship. It was such a hot topic, but generally, this relationship only boosted Vernon's image even more.

Because now everyone thought that he was a man of virtue. A man who could heal a broken woman until she regained her confidence and was able to love again after leaving her abusive husband.

Vincent gritted his teeth and cursed, "BULLSHIT! THAT MAN IS A FUCKING MONSTER JUST LIKE ME! WE ARE BROTHERS!"
