Divorced My Scum Husband, Married His Evil brother

Chapter 774

Vernon had enough talk with Vincent as he knew it was going nowhere anyway. Vincent would continuously curse him for being the homewrecker, even though it was Vincent himself who ruined his family.

Chloe was a very tolerant person who forgave a lot.

At the start of his reunion with Chloe, Vernon admitted he was such an asshole. They had many unneeded confrontations and misunderstandings because Vernon thought that Chloe hated him, so he wanted them to burn together in pain.

But Chloe showed him nothing but gentleness. She was patient and loving, just like before they got separated, and his wrath slowly died down, leaving a bittersweet feeling as he wanted to repair his relationship with Chloe.

Now that he was at his best time with Chloe, he would not allow anyone to ruin it.

Vernon left the room and reported everything to the police officers outside. The officers quickly reprimanded Vincent and put him in a handcuff. He struggled like a madman to no avail.

He knew that his love life with Chloe would be done for, and this crushing feeling in his heart made him uncontrollable.

Chloe was sitting in another room, it was only thirty minutes before the divorce trial started, and Chloe felt the pressure already.

Vernon entered the room with an assuring smile, "Love, I've successfully retrieved the CCTV recording just now. I told my lawyer to play it during the trial to make sure that the judge knows what kind of character Vincent has."

Vernon hugged Chloe, who looked worried. He then checked her body, ensuring that she didn't get hurt anywhere.

Chloe smiled and patted his chest, "I'm fine. Thanks to you, who swiftly protected me before Vincent could do anything."

"I hope this can be a wake-up call for you," Vernon said. "Vincent is not stable. He will never be. We shouldn't let him get close to Mackie, or our daughter might get influenced by his terrible behavior."

Chloe smiled bitterly, "It's so sad to see, but you're right. I don't want Mackie to get hurt. I won't allow visitation when he can be so dangerous with his anger issue. I will also file a restraining order later."

"She will be able to meet Vincent again once she's eighteen, and I hope by that time, our daughter can see the true color of her biological father," Chloe said.

Vernon still disagreed with that.

He didn't want Mackie to see Vincent for the rest of her life, but once she was eighteen, none of them could stop her anymore if she wanted to visit Vincent.

So all he could do was ensure Mackie was safe before she reached adulthood.

Vincent rubbed Chloe's baby bump, hidden neatly under her blazer.

They hid Chloe's pregnancy because Vincent might use this as a bullet to attack them in court. Besides, it would be too scandalous and would be a media highlight.

Just like he said before, he wanted Chloe to be remembered by the media as a strong woman who went through a lot. He didn't want any slander to his beloved wife.

"I will protect you and our children, Chloe. I promise."

"And I trust you'd do that for me and our children," Chloe smiled. "I will get my divorce today, and I can't wait to marry you, husband."

Vernon was so happy when Chloe called him 'husband.' He wanted to hug her so tight and marry her right here, but he knew he had to prepare a good proposal for her.

They got called by their lawyer thirty minutes later, stating that the trial would start soon, and Chloe had to come with him.

Vernon was at a loss when he saw Chloe enter the area for the ones involved in the divorce trial, while he could only sit as a public member or audience.

Chloe walked with a sure step as she entered the court. She sat on the left and saw Vincent standing on the other side. Two police officers guarded him, and his hand was tied in a handcuff.

She stared at him for a while, and he darted his eyes until their eyes accidentally met.

Chloe's heart jumped as she saw the hatred in Vincent's eyes. She swallowed her saliva hard, trying her best to stay calm.

'You can do this, Chloe. This will be the end of your suffering. You can't mess this up,' Chloe warned herself, as she didn't want to look weak in front of Vincent.

The bailiff announced the judge's arrival, and the judge first noticed the eye contact between Chloe and Vincent. She was able to catch the dynamic between this pair of soon-to-be ex-husband and wife, especially after she saw the handcuff and officers guarding Vincent Gray.

She sighed.

She had been a judge for more than a decade, and domestic abuse never seemed to stop. No matter how many laws were made to protect women from domestic abuse, it didn't deter many abusive men.

'So this is another domestic abuse case,' the judge thought. 'I've never expected Vincent Gray to be an abuser. He always showed himself as a family man in the media. I guess we can't trust that kind of public image.'

"Please be seated," the bailiff said before they started the trial.

Judge read the document on her table and then cleared her throat to start the trial;

"Good morning, everyone. My name is Judge Melinda Parr. We're here to proceed with the divorce between Mrs. Chloe Gray and Mr. Vincent Gray. For the attorney of Mrs. Chloe Gray's side as the plaintiff of the divorce, please introduce yourself and your opening statement."

Chloe's divorce attorney stood up and began to introduce himself. He opened his statement as the plaintiff.

The judge listened to the opening statement and nodded slightly.

She kept staring at Chloe, who seemed to have much to say, so she said, "Thank you for your statement, Mr. Morris. Now I want Mrs. Chloe Gray to come and elaborate on all her statements regarding her divorce plea."
