Divorced My Scum Husband, Married His Evil brother

"Even in my dream, you're still the same…." Vernon said. He grabbed Chloe's wrist and yanked it towards him.

"Ah!" Chloe gasped. She thought Vernon was wide awake, and she was scared shitless.

But soon after, Vernon closed his eyes again while holding her hand. Chloe tried to pull her hand gently to no avail because Vernon tightened his grip around her wrist.

"Don't escape me, not in my dream. You left me for so long, can you pity me a bit?" Vernon murmured. He gently put Chloe's hand on his cheek, so they could share their warmth together. "You're warm like I always needed you to be…."

Chloe was still trying to process what was currently happening right now. It seemed that Vernon thought he was dreaming. That meant he had a similar dream to a reality like this.

And it seemed…

'He had mistaken me for another woman,' Chloe thought. Because he was wide awake, Vernon would probably yell at her again. But he was exceptionally gentle in his dream, something that would never happen in real life between her and Vernon.

'Ah, Vernon has a lot of women in his life. But for a woman to enter his dream and make him act so gentle and loving, that woman must be special, probably the love of his life?"

Chloe smiled as she watched Vernon, whose expression gradually eased. She caressed his cheek gently.

While Vernon was still busy with her hand, she used her free hand to continue treating Vernon's wound until every part of the wound had been treated, the last thing needed was bandaging, but she needed her two hands to bandage Vernon's fist.

She tried to pull her hand again, but Vernon tightened his grip until she winced out of pain.

"Don't leave. I miss you a lot…." Vernon mumbled. With his eyes closed, he said, "Why did you betray me?"

…

'Ouch, that woman must've left him. Did she cheat on Vernon? I mean, if Vernon is this gentle, that would be weird if a woman left him.'

'And I doubt she left because of money. Even when Vernon was still in Europe, Dorothea once said he was still provided with money, although not much.'

Chloe could feel Vernon's grip continue to tighten even more. It was painful that she thought her wrist would be broken, but Chloe didn't dare to let a sound out of her mouth. She endured the pain, afraid she would wake him up if she screamed and forcefully yanked her arm.

"Did I hurt you?"

…

"If you're hurt, that's good. Because you will understand the pain, I bear for so long. I want you to understand all the pain. I want you to know that I love you and hate you at the same time," Vernon muttered.

Despite his bone-crushing grip on her wrist, he gently kissed Chloe's fingers one by one, from her finger to her pinky.

Chloe gasped when Vernon suddenly put her index into his mouth. He lucked and sucked the tip of her finger like candy, "Understand me, I want you to understand…."

…

Chloe bit her lower lip, so she wouldn't accidentally leak her voice and woke Vernon up.

Vernon put Chloe's palm on his chest, so she could feel his beating heart, "The passion in my heart, it burns like fire. "I want to embrace you with this burning feeling inside my heart, so we can burn together…."

"I want us to die together…."

…

…

The grip on Chloe's wrist gradually weakened until Vernon truly fell asleep again, and she could pull her hand off his grip.

"Ouch, that hurts so much…" Chloe rubbed her wrist before sliding her away from Vernon, who was asleep. She took the bandage and carefully wrapped Vernon's hand with it.

After she was done, she breathed full of relief and got up from the sofa.

She was about to leave but heard Vernon mumbling, "Don't… leave me…."

…

Chloe squatted beside the sofa and wiped the sweat on Vernon's forehead before caressing his hair, "I will never leave you, Vernon. No matter what, you are still my cute little Vernon, whom I knew fifteen years ago when you were only seven."

"Don't be sad about this woman who left you, she is a scum. Your big sister Chloe will accompany you," Chloe said.

Chloe felt relief in her heart as she delivered the words she had always wanted to say since the first time they met again. It was also the same sentence she said whenever Vernon was sad.

They were separated for so long after Vernon's abrupt departure to Europe right after she married Vincent, so she constantly worried about her Little Vernon.

"But you're doing well now, my cute little Vernon," Chloe smiled as she continued caressing Vernon's hair. "I hope you find the woman you love and will love you back, okay? I will always support you."

'Maybe he had a terrible break-up with the girl in his dream. What he said are extreme things….' Chloe theorized. 'Maybe it's also the reason why he became a playboy and treated all women so badly. He was so kind and obedient when he was a kid and teenager with me….'

'That woman in his dream must've hurt his heart so terribly….'

Chloe sighed deeply. They have so much pain in their hearts, getting hurt by their loved ones.

"I can't do anything other than take care of you, Vernon. But I want you to be happy, don't be an idiot like me, okay? Nobody will love me any. I am a lost cause. But you deserve someone who loves you wholeheartedly," Chloe smiled and kissed Vernon's forehead.

Chloe finally got up, took a spare blanket from the laundry room, and covered Vernon before leaving with the first-aid kit and the bucket of water.

She gave Vernon the last look before going downstairs and smiled, "I will act like there is nothing wrong between us tomorrow morning. Please cooperate, cute little Vernon."
