Divorced My Scum Husband, Married His Evil brother

[Warning: Upsetting content.]

Maria remembered how hard Mr. Vaughn Gray worked for his company. He was talented at managing and improving his company, so the already prosperous Gray family business could branch out and become even bigger.

'Ah, Mr. Vaughn Gray, if only you're here to replace your son. I know you told me to guide your son so the company will not fall, but he is not as good as you,' Maria complained in her heart. She stared at Vincent, who was busy with his own thoughts with hatred and disgust in her eyes. 'Look at him, Mr. Vaughn Gray, your son cannot even beat one woman to submission. He's not as great as you, and he stopped fucking and beating women after his stupid wife left. What a wimp.'

"What are you waiting for, Sir?" Maria asked. "Are you going to keep being a wimp while everyone is laughing at you? Your father must be disappointed."

"SHUT UP!" Vincent got up from the bed and stood tall in front of the short and old Secretary Maria. He glared down at her, but the old woman didn't budge. "Don't you dare to call me a disappointment or I will beat the fuck out of you as well!"

"Are you really going to do that?" Secretary Maria taunted. "Will you get the satisfaction of beating an ugly, worthless woman like me?"The sourcᴇ of this content is NoᴠelFɪre.net

"…"

Vincent went silent, but he kept staring at Secretary Maria with the same hatred she emanated.

Both of them hated each other, but at the same time, they also trusted each other so much. Because they knew they had the same amount of maliciousness, they just had a different priority.

While Vincent wanted to have fun and be satisfied all the time, Maria wanted the company to run smoothly.

"You know that we have the same target, right, Mr. Gray?" Secretary Maria said. "No need to hide things from me, Sir. I know that you feel empty and distracted without Chloe by your side. You made many rookie mistakes for months, and you keep putting the company into jeopardy."

Vincent hated to admit that he was a mess without Chloe by his side. He was unstable and couldn't sleep with any other woman because he kept imagining Chloe.

Now that things kept going wrong, he knew he was at his wit's end.

"So why don't we make a deal?" Maria said.

"And what would that be?" Vincent asked.

Secretary Maria was surprised that Vincent would agree to listen to her so easily. She thought she needed to do more.

But she wouldn't waste this chance.

Thus she proposed, "Just let me do whatever it takes to start searching for Chloe. I will tie her up and bring her to you. Meanwhile, you have to deal with whatever bullshit is with your little brother. I don't have enough power to do anything against him."

"You're not allowed to do anything to my little brother or I will kill you first, you old wretch," Vincent threatened. "There must be an explanation why he did something like this. He doesn't usually make such a huge blunder like this."

"You have your opinion, Mr. Gray. But I am convinced that Vernon is up to something. He has a malicious intention towards you."

Vincent scoffed, "Forget about him, I'll deal with him myself."

"Then does that mean you allowed me to deal with Chloe?"

Vincent hesitated for a while. Though he couldn't wait to beat Chloe up for making so much mess by leaving him, Vincent still didn't want her to get killed, and he knew how cruel this old hag could be.

So he gave her a requirement, "You can handle her. But I will not allow you to severely injure, let alone kill her. Only I can inflict pain on her. So if you can actually catch and bring her to me, I will check whether she has any wound or not, then I will inflict the same wound on you. Got it?"

"Understood, Sir," Maria nodded. She tried to maintain her cool, but she couldn't help but get giddy just imagining the company on the brink of collapse finally recovered, and things would return to normal after this.

"Then I'll excuse myself, Sir. Please handle the problem with your Little brother before it goes out of hand," Maria said. She turned around and walked away from the master bedroom.

"Wait!" Vincent stopped her before she left the door. Maria halted her step, waiting for her boss to say something. "You said there are two problems, and you've only told me one of them. What's the second problem? Let me fix it."

Maria grinned maliciously but tried to reply as formally as possible, "You don't need to worry about that one, Sir. I will handle it."

"Huh? Are you sure? You haven't even told me about the problem yet."

"Yes, it's no problem for me, now please excuse me," Maria finally left the bedroom and closed the door behind her.

Vincent frowned, "She's usually not the one who'd hide things from me. But I guess the problem is that it's menial, that's why she doesn't bother to tell me about the second problem."

"Well, it's time to talk with my stupid little brother. I need an explanation. How could he be so stupid to release the ad when the bad press about Chelsea and I haven't died down yet."

Vincent searched for his phone, and once he found it, he started searching for Vernon's contact.

Meanwhile, Maria walked through the corridor with a satisfied grin. She was quite happy that Vincent didn't force her to tell him about the second problem because it was directly linked to Chloe.

Maria just got the news from one of the police who worked in the New York Police Department that Chloe took Chelsea's sons with her, and the social service would probably search for them in a week.

"It'd be the best time to finally find where Chloe lives and ambush her when the time is suitable," Maria plotted. "You can't escape me, Chloe Gray. Just accept your fate for the good of the company."
