Divorced My Scum Husband, Married His Evil brother-16 Chapter 16
"You can be my personal assistant, Sister-in-law. Taking care of all my daily needs," Vernon slowly leaned in, whispered in her ears, like the devil chanting his charm, "Especially in bed."
Chloe's breath stiffened. She lowered her head even more, almost curling at this point, because she wanted to avoid Vernon's lips that were so close to his ear and nape.
She wasn't sure if she heard it right, or maybe her mind was playing tricks on her. Because she just heard Vernon whispering that he wanted her to be his personal assistant, taking care of his daily needs… especially in bed. free𝚠𝚎𝚋𝒏𝚘ѵ𝐞l.𝑐oｍ
'That means he wants me to….' Chloe warded off the thought immediately. 'No, no! That is simply ridiculous! How could he— a—ah, he must've been joking.' 𝑓𝐫𝑒e𝒘𝚎𝘣𝚗𝘰𝘷𝐞𝑙.co𝑚
Chloe felt the joke was inappropriate, though. They were technically still in-laws despite her already separating from Vincent. Even after getting the divorce she wanted, wouldn't that be weird to joke around?
'Maybe I'm just too old for this crude joke,' Chloe thought. But she was the one who needed the job, so she had to play it off.
"A—Ahahah… that's funny, Vernon," Chloe gave out her awkward laugh. "I was a little scared when you said that. But then I realized that's impossible, haha… good joke…."
Vernon had expected the reaction from his sister-in-law. After all, she was always the modest type who still believed in traditional love and loyalty after marriage.
Which was also why her marriage with his ever adulterous big brother failed, was it not?
"Maybe this would convince you," Vernon said. His left hand suddenly wrapped around Chloe's shoulder, locking her in place. While his right hand slowly crawled from her collarbone to her neck.
Vernon's big and hot hand wrapped around her fragile neck, making sure that Chloe wouldn't be able to escape while he was whispering something in her ear, "I want you to work under me, spread your thighs and greet me as your Boss. Both in the office and in bed."
Chloe felt a jolt inside her body when Vernon gently licked her earlobe. She struggled, trying to break free from the grasp of this evil bastard.
But Vernon's hands were tightly wrapped around her shoulder and neck. The more she struggled, the tighter it was, choking her slightly as Vernon continued speaking;
"I'm not done yet," Vernon whispered with a sneer in his voice.
"V—Vernon, you're crazy! I'm still your sister-in-law!" Chloe yelled as she tried to break free once more. "—Ack!"
Chloe stopped struggling when Vernon gently pressed his thumb on her esophagus, making it difficult for her to breathe. "
"Any deal with me is a high risk but has a high return. I can give you anything you want, but everything has its price. Think about it, Sister-in-law."
Vernon finally released his grip around Chloe's neck and took a few steps back as Chloe coughed a few times.
She turned around and saw Vernon shrugged and raised his brow light as if he didn't just say something absolutely disgusting to her own sister-in-law!
Although she was in the process of divorce, she was still legally his in-law!
It was also such a shock to Chloe, who was a conservative woman. She had only been in love once and married the same man who took her virginity.
She knew that Vernon was infamous in the gossip news and social media as a playboy who likes to break women's hearts for nothing but pleasure.
She thought it was all exaggeration, but he… he wanted to lay his hand on her?!
Chloe got up from the seat and took a few steps back to distance herself from Vernon. The devil kept on smirking while crossing his hands. He seemed to see this as a game, a joke, perhaps.
"You… did you not realize what you just said? Vernon, we are—"
"We're in-laws, yes. Not for long," Vernon interrupted. "You're probably going to divorce my brother soon. But, even if you're not, I don't really care. I'm just a little curious about you, that's all. Since you can actually make Vincent stay for… two years?"
"You… you're unbelievable," Chloe clenched her fist. "I'm here to find a job to feed my daughter! I'm not here for sex!"
"It's not just sex. I will pay you for that, and I will give you all you need. Isn't that convenient?" Vernon said. "I happened to end my relationship with a woman about thirty minutes ago. She's been nothing but a nuisance."
"I also don't want commitment right now. It's too tiring when I have a big project coming up. That's why I want to hire you to work under me," Vernon said.
Everything that Vernon said was so unbelievable for a traditional woman like Chloe. She was ready to work a hard job just to provide for her daughter, not to sell her body— HELL, it didn't even make sense! She was 35, and he was 25!
He could obviously get any woman he wanted, but now he suddenly wanted to feast on an old lady like her?!
Chloe took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down.
"Vernon, I'm thirty-five years old, you know that? Why would you mess around with a woman like me?"
"I don't have any obligation to tell you," Vincent shrugged with little to no care.
"C—Can you Just please, give me a proper job. I can even be a cleaning lady in your office!" Chloe insisted. Hoping this would melt Vernon's heart. "This is for my daughter. I'm begging you…."
"The only job I can give is to be my personal assistant," Vernon replied. "You can leave now if you don't want it, Sister-in-law. Though, I can tell that you're very desperate for this job."
After realizing that Vernon only gave her one choice, she bit her lip and shook her head fervently, "All I need is a job, not to be your bitch! You're crazy, Vernon Phoenix Gray!"
Chloe stomped her feet as she wanted to leave.
But Vernon blocked her way with his imposing broad shoulder and tall body.
"What? What do you want now? I said I don't want your offer!" Chloe yelled.
"Aw, don't get so worked up, Sister-in-law," he took out a business card from his suit pocket. He grabbed her wrist and put the card in her hand, "This card has my private number. Remember to call me when you change your mind."
