Divorced My Scum Husband, Married His Evil brother

Chapter 630 630



And now Chloe brought four boys who were in a difficult spot. They weren't just four regular boys, those boys were involved in a murder case, and that would put a spotlight on the internet.

Child Protection Service would definitely search for the boys' whereabouts to see if they were in good hands, and that meant Chloe would be exposing their relationship and even her hideout to the government, or even worse, to the public!

Vernon felt that he was on edge, and he refused to get all of his plans foiled and his beautiful life with Chloe destroyed because of those four boys!

"Besides, why do we have to keep other people with our family anyway? All I want is to have a good life with Chloe, Mackie, and possibly our future children. Why do we have to have Dorothea and those four boys as well?" Vernon complained. "Chloe needs to stop acting like she's goddamn Mother Teresa!"

Vernon complained a lot about Chloe's mother's instincts and how kind and naive she could be. Because it often gave her trouble that he had to fix.

But at the same time, he knew well that he wouldn't fall in love with Chloe had she not had those qualities.

She was the only woman that could make him feel at ease, loved, and taken care of. Everything about her was genuine and sweet, and for a man with a lot of bitterness in life, a woman like Chloe was all he needed.

'Unfortunately, she's also what my big brother needs,' Vernon thought. No matter how many times his Big bro said that he didn't need a woman like Chloe, he obviously did, and it only became even more apparent once she was gone.

Vincent became unhinged, moody, and temperamental. He made constant mistakes in his office. He became what Vernon was before he reunited with Chloe.

"As much as I'm angry at her for being so illogical at times, I still can't scold her," Vernon said. "And I definitely won't let her put herself in danger. I will do anything as long as she's safe!"

...

Vernon had a long moment of consideration before he finally left his car and headed back to the elevator.

However, he didn't go to the penthouse.

Instead, he went to the tenth floor where Dorothea and those four boys were sleeping.

He had a master key that could unlock any door here. So he used his key to unlock the room where the four boys were sleeping.

He wanted to check if those boys were at least tolerable enough for him so he wouldn't throw them into the foster home.

'Though, I don't think Chelsea and Tommy's children will be tolerable. Their parents are two pieces of shit after all,' Vernon thought.

However, the moment he opened the door, he saw three children sleeping together in one big bed. They seemed very tired, so they didn't realize the door was open.

The oldest one was surprised when he saw Vernon but quickly recognized him and rushed to greet his Aunt's new man.

"Um, I'm sorry, Uncle. My brothers are all sleeping, they are very tired...." Aaron said as he lowered his head politely. It seemed that he had been used to acting politely to avoid punishment.

Vernon looked down at the kid in front of him. He was scrawny, unlike Mackie, who had a full round cheek healthy for her age. This boy was scrawny, with his cheek a bit sunken, meaning that he barely had enough food for himself.

'I thought my big bro gave Chelsea at least ten thousand bucks a month. Where did it go? Don't tell me that Chelsea wants to starve her sons to death?' Vernon wondered.

There was also an obvious palm print on his cheek, showing that he had been slapped so hard today, just like what Chloe had told him before.

Chloe told him that Aaron was only one year younger than Mackie, so he must be six years old right now.

Yet, he didn't act like a child. He was calm and collected. Deep down, even Vernon knew this kid had a lot of trauma in his mind. He looked anxious and defensive.

He looked like the type of kid that would burst when pushed to the edge.

'Just like me...' Vernon thought.

He was abused and neglected by his mother when he was a kid, and that affected his growth. He became wild and a huge troublemaker in the mansion, but when someone actually took him seriously, they'd see a lot of anxiety in his mind.

He was scared that anything he did would be seen as wrong, and he'd end up getting hit with that wine bottle again.

He was also scared that everyone would eventually forget about him because he was neglected.

His life was bleak until Chloe came into his life and became the guiding light in his dark path.

'And now, Chloe has also become the light of this kid's life, just like what she did to me back then...' Vernon thought.

There was a little guilt in his heart, but he tried to maintain his dignity and imposing figure in front of this kid. He looked down at him and asked, "Do you realize that you can be here because of your Aunt?"

"Ah yes!" Aaron replied swiftly. "Aunt Chloe saves us all, and I can't thank her enough. I don't know what will happen to my brothers if Aunt Chloe didn't take us in...."

"And um... thank you for taking us in too, Uncle...." Aaron murmured, afraid that he'd offend this scary man somehow.

"No need to thank me, I would've kicked you all out had it not been for your Aunt who begs so you guys can stay," Vernon said ruthlessly. He thought that he shouldn't sugarcoat anything to this boy. He needed to realize that he wasn't special. He wasn't Mackie who was loved.

He was the son of a useless man and a crazy woman.

Vernon thought the boy would cry after that.

But Aaron nodded calmly, "I understand, Uncle. As much as I want to stay with Aunt Chloe, I don't want to make her sad. We will be okay if we return to the police station, I will take care of my little brothers."
