Divorced My Scum Husband, Married His Evil brother-317 Chapter 317
"Ah! Aw… aw… ouch! My ear!" Vernon's eyes were wide open due to the sudden pain.
Chloe pulled Vernon's ear and forced him to get up, "You made me worried sick! Vernon Phoenix Gray!"
Vernon could break free from Chloe by pushing her away or brushing her hand off. After all, he knew how weak Chloe was compared to him.
But he didn't want to accidentally hurt his beloved, so he had to suck it up and follow Chloe, who forcefully escorted him out of the room.
"Aw! Ouch! Stop pulling my ear, I'm not a kid!" Vernon yelled.
"Not a kid?! Well you act like one! How could you be so reckless?! Be a responsible adult, Vernon!" Chloe yelled back, and Vernon zipped his lips instantly. ƒ𝘳ee𝔀e𝚋n૦𝐯el.c𝗼𝓂
Cynthia watched as the woman named Chloe escorted the handsome-but-intimidating Mr. Phoenix Gray out of the room by pulling his ear.
It was a surreal view, and she didn't expect the intimidating CEO to be such a henpecked boyfriend.
Cynthia sat in silence as she stared at the two who walked in the corridor. She was relieved that she didn't have to spend a night with Mr. Phoenix Gray, and she was also glad that he didn't do anything to her.
Besides, she knew she was just a replacement, "I realized that Mr. Phoenix Gray was just using me as a replacement to spend the night after I saw that woman."
Cynthia heard the gossip about the young waitress, Nicky.
She was so desperate to get fucked by Mr. Phoenix Gray that she threw herself into his embrace, much to his disdain.
That girl was gossiped about and laughed at by the other waitresses after the incident. She resigned shortly after, unable to bear the shame of being rejected by Mr. Phoenix Gray.
"Well, I never had any intention with that man. He's too young for my taste," Cynthia said.
She continued staring at the pair of fierce wife and henpecked husband until they exited the long corridor.
Cynthia sighed, lowered her head, and noticed something on the floor.
"Oh… I need to give that back to him."

"Let's return home, Vernon! We will have a long-ass scolding session!" Chloe yelled as they entered the main area of the bar again.
All the waitresses darted their eyes toward the view of the intimidating Mr. Phoenix Gray being dragged out of the corridor by a woman who pulled his ear.
It was a shameful view for Vernon. Luckily, there was no other customer right now, or else Vernon would never show up in this bar anymore.
The bar owner was also stunned when he saw how obedient Mr. Phoenix Gray was to this woman. 𝘧𝘳𝐞𝚎𝑤ℯ𝘣𝗻𝘰ѵℯl.c𝐨𝚖
He brought his ex-girlfriends here plenty of times; they were all high-profiled actresses or millionaire's daughters.
Usually, the cold CEO wouldn't even give his date a second glance at the bar, as if all of them were just a fleeting relationship to cover up his loneliness.
'Who would've expected… that Mr. Phoenix Gray would be conquered by a thin woman wearing pajamas and a sweater?' the bar owner thought. 'She is beautiful, but so were all of his dates before. So I guess there's something else other than beauty that makes him so in love.'
The bar owner was confident with his claim that Mr. Phoenix Gray was definitely in love because he would never allow any woman to humiliate him in public, let alone pull his ear like a little kid.
'Yet, I feel like Mr. Phoenix Gray is secretly happy with this. I mean… he literally pouted like a little kid just now…' the bar owner commented in his heart.
He didn't dare to say it out loud for fear that the cold CEO would confront him.
Chloe stopped right in front of the bar owner, still with one hand pulling Vernon's ear, "Sir, please tell me how much the bill for all the food, beverage, and service he used. I will pay."
Vernon's eyes widened for a second when he heard that. Of course, he wouldn't allow his woman to pay. That was unthinkable!
Vernon— who was standing tall behind Chloe, glared at the bar owner. His hawk-like gaze was about to eat him up if he dared to charge Chloe for the stuff he bought here.
The bar owner gulped. He was about to say the number.
But he stopped immediately after seeing that glare because he knew his life would be over if he dared to charge Mr. Phoenix Gray's woman for it.
"D—Don't worry, Miss. You don't need to pay for anything. It's all free!"
"Free? How could that be!" Chloe protested. She looked up to check on Vernon, but Vernon quickly changed his expression to be more pitiful, so it wouldn't look like he was intimidating the bar owner.
Meanwhile, the bar owner was astonished at how fast Mr. Phoenix Gray changed his expression.
"How could we leave without paying, Sir. Please tell me the number," Chloe insisted, much to the bar owner's grievance.
Because the cold CEO continued intimidating him, no matter how much he insisted that everything was free.
However, the tension between them quickly dissipated when a woman came in from the front door.
"It's okay, Gurl. I'll pay, and then bill it to Mr. Phoenix Gray tomorrow."
Chloe turned her head and saw Diamond walking towards her, wearing a simple jeans and cardigan.
"Diamond, why are you here?" Chloe asked out of surprise.
"Cuz' I thought you'd need my help," Diamond replied. She threw a mocking gaze at her boss, whose ear was pulled by Chloe. "Though, I don't think you need my help at all."
"Well, Vernon is drunk right now. But he's surprisingly obedient, so I have no problem," Chloe replied. "Oh, about the payment—"
"No need to bother, Gurl. It's my duty to pay," Diamond replied. "Mr. Phoenix Gray came here often, and I'm usually the one who paid for his expenses, since he usually came out dead drunk."
