Divorced My Scum Husband, Married His Evil brother



Chloe's cheeks blushed instantly, "P—Pervert!"

Vernon chuckled. She glanced at the plastic bag in Chloe's hand and asked, "So, what do you want to do with half of her ashes? Throw it to the trash can?"

Chloe shook her head, "I have another idea in mind."

"Oh?" Vernon raised his brow. "And what kind of idea is that? Tell me."

"You told me before that Vincent wants to do a press conference to clear him out of the malicious rumors, right?" Chloe asked, and Vernon nodded. Indeed, he told Chloe that Vincent was about to clear his name using a formal press conference and was doing something to stop it. 

"Do you know when Vincent will hold that press conference?" Chloe asked more.

"Three days from now," Vernon replied. He sighed. He was ashamed because he was yet to find a good way to ruin Vincent's press conference. "Look, I'm sorry that I haven't found a good way to ruin it. I was thinking about bribing the reporters, so they will begin to give him many uncomfortable questions until he snaps. It's the best way to publicly shame him, because I know that he doesn't have the patience to handle harsh questions."

"Hmm, I think you underestimate him a bit, Vernon," Chloe said. "He doesn't have patience most of the time. But he cares a lot about his public image. He will do everything to keep his image good in front of the people."

"There have been times where he's very unstable, yet he's still able to pull off that perfect man image when he was doing an interview for a business magazine," Chloe said. "So I've come up with a plan."

"And what's the plan?" Vernon anticipated eagerly.

"Since I know that he'll be able to pull off that perfect gentleman image in the public, then let's shock his mind the night before the press conference, so he will be too distracted, frustrated, and angry at the questions given by the reporters. It will be a good scene since the press conference will probably be broadcasted live in the morning news and on the internet." 

"And we happen to have the best thing to give him the shock of his life," Chloe raised the plastic bag in her hand and then said, "Maria has been his anchor in life. He can survive so far because Maria is on his side. She's the loyal dog of the Gray family, and once she's gone, Vincent will grow weary and unstable. Because he's so used to getting help from Maria in almost everything."

"Vernon, I need you to send this plastic bag to Vincent's mansion. Make sure that he will open it right on the night before the press conference," Chloe instructed. "And give me a paper and pen now. I will be the one who writes a note for him."

Vincent sighed as he had to enter his office again this morning. He knew he'd have a difficult day at work since the Gray Company was in crisis right now because the rumors didn't die after Christmas and New Year.

In fact, it got even worse.

People had so much time on their hands, and the case of Chelsea Davis and the involvement of Vincent Gray was like a hot topic in various social media.

Chelsea Davis' crime was so severe, and the fact that it involved a billionaire was too crazy for everyone to miss.ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ novelenglish.net . Fɪre

The lipstick advertisement in the New York Times Square only made it even worse because now everyone has begun to craft some crazy theory.

Nevertheless, that cosmetic release was a total failure that cost millions of dollars for the company.

And the nail in the coffin was the case with the boys and his wife.

Since the poor boys were with Vincent's wife right now, that meant Vincent and his wife weren't on good terms, and they were most likely already going their own way.

It was a big sensation because the public had always seen Vincent Gray as a perfect man who loved his wife and daughter so much that he didn't even want to show their faces in public. 

With all this pressure, the company's stock went downhill to a critical level, sending panic through the whole company. In fact, it was so bad that almost 80% of his long-term business partners already cut their contracts or decided not to renew them with the Gray company, making it impossible for Vincent to recover unless he did something to restore his public image. 

Meanwhile, Vincent could only ignore them all as he didn't want to listen to the same complaints over and over.

"Things will get solved tomorrow," he told himself. "I will do a press conference, and answer everything, so people's opinion will be on my side again after this."

Vincent was busy in his office, reading document after document that he had to do all by himself because he lacked a secretary.

Usually, these were things that Maria did. It was Maria who read the documents and passed the important ones to him, but now that old woman was nowhere to be found, and she was also uncontactable, which was weird because she'd usually told Vincent again if some people were after her.

After all, Maria had a lot of enemies, so she also needed constant protection from Vincent's men.

"Did something happen to her?" Vincent wondered. But then he warded off the idea. "No, no, that's impossible. She's smart and sly. She will find a way to get out of a difficult situation no matter what. Maybe she's in hiding right now, all I need to do is to wait for her to return and try to endure this."

However, no matter how hard he tried to endure, he realized that he wouldn't be able to work like a dog. He simply wasn't used to working so hard at all.

So he had already told the HR department to find him a new secretary as a placeholder until Maria returned.

Right when he was thinking about the new secretary, there was a knock on the door, and the man outside said, "Excuse me, Sir, I'm here with your new Secretary that will start working today."
