Divorced My Scum Husband, Married His Evil brother

157  Chapter 157

Chloe planned to allow Mackie to visit the Gray family, especially Dorothea, after she finished the divorce process. 'Which would take a long time since that bastard still doesn't want to sign the paper…' Chloe sighed. She was dazed for a while, watching Mackie eat because Chloe only ate one spoon of her food. She was watching her daughter eating happily, then her eyes scanned around the restaurant. She didn't want to accidentally bump into someone dangerous. Though, she doubted Vincent would be willing to go to the mall like Mackie and her. Vincent was raised to be a master of an old money family stemmed from generations. He didn't go to the mall to buy stuff like Chloe. At first, he was angry that Chloe 'stained' his daughter by bringing her to the mall because she wasn't supposed to go with people who might be lower than her. He was also worried if Mackie got kidnapped.

But after realizing that Mackie loved going to the mall, Vincent couldn't say no to her and went to the mall with her a few times to buy her toys. Though, they never actually had this kind of full family outing. Either Chloe brought Mackie to the mall, or Vincent did it.

'He said he doesn't want some paparazzi to see him with an ugly woman in public. That's funny because that ugly woman was his own wife….' …

Chloe was relieved the restaurant was clear of anyone she knew. After all, this was supposed to be a good time for Mackie, so Chloe didn't want to start any drama and ruin Mackie's day. While Chloe was idly scanning around the half-empty restaurant, she noticed a new customer had just come in, and her heart dropped when she saw the new guest.

She saw a man in his late thirties, wearing a blue polo and jeans clasped under his belly because he couldn't hide his beer belly. He had thin hair and a beard that didn't seem properly groomed.

His hand wrapped around the waist of a much younger woman, probably in her early twenties. She didn't seem to object, though. In fact, she was the one who initiated a public display of affect by leaning closer to him as they walked in and sat at the table near the entrance. "Oh no…" Chloe murmured. She didn't expect to discover a scandal while trying to have good eating out and movie with her daughter.

"Mommy, that are you looking at—?" Mackie asked. She noticed that her Mommy was staring at one spot for a long time, and her face gradually turned pale. Mackie got curious and wanted to look at what caused her Mommy to turn pale. But before turning her head, Chloe quickly covered her eyes and forced her to look straight again, "Don't look, dear. Just focus on your food, okay?"

"Ehh… why?" Mackie asked. She was curious because her Mommy seemed so distressed about it. "Mommy looks so panicked, so Mackie wants to see too!"

"Ah— then, Mommy will eat with you, okay? Just look straight at Mommy, don't turn your head," Chloe said. Mackie was still curious, but when her Mommy said she'd eat with Mackie, the little girl was overjoyed. She instantly forgot about her curiosity and nodded happily, "Mommy eat with Mackie!" Chloe started eating with Mackie. She ate bits by bits, and her stomach was churning when she ate, but she pushed through as she didn't want Mackie to see what was happening if she turned around.

However, while eating, she kept stealing glances at the two forbidden couples at the table near the door. Because it was the scene of Thomas 'Tommy' Davis having a date with another woman even though he was married.

And he was married to Chloe's big sister, Chelsea Davis. She always thought that Tommy was a good man because he was willing to take care of the kids when Chelsea was busy working or simply too exhausted to take care of their four sons. So Chloe envied her big sister a little, knowing that Vincent was nothing but a bastard who didn't even care about her wellbeing.

'Who would've expected… he is actually cheating with a younger woman…' Chloe assumed. She wanted to stay positive and thought that woman might have been a work colleague. But her positive idea crumbled a minute later because that woman kissed the edge of Tommy's lips, and they were giggling and chatting while reading the menu. 'Why in hell would he cheat?! That woman must've been a call girl,' Chloe assumed. Tommy wasn't an attractive man— at least not attractive enough to hook an early twenties girl solely using his charm. So Chloe assumed that woman must've been a call girl of some sort. 'But, does he even have the money for that? Since he is— barely employed….'

Chloe knew that her big sister was actually the breadwinner of that family. Tommy worked odd jobs in New York, and it could barely cover the expenses. That was also why they still lived in their mother's house and asked Vincent for some money every month. This was also something that Vincent often brought up to corner her, saying that Chloe should be grateful because Vincent was still willing to help her poor family. 'Should I… tell Chelsea about this?' Chloe wondered. She didn't have a good relationship with her big sister. But she was still a family despite everything that happened to them.'

Soon, Chloe found herself in a dilemma between telling her big sister about this or hiding Tommy's adultery. 'I want to tell Chelsea about this. But is it a good idea to do? She has so much burden as a breadwinner. She also has four sons…' Chloe thought, trying to justify her own decision of covering up for Tommy.

'If I tell her about this, her marriage will turn to shambles… and what about her four sons? Their sons see their dad as a good father, right?'
