Chapter 772

"The huge mistake I made was marrying you ten years ago, Vincent Gray."

That sentence shot Vincent in his heart. He was so angry and sad at the same time that he couldn't control his own emotion.

He was trying his best to look good in front of her, but why didn't she want to go back with him?

"Oh yeah? Then you should fucking know that I'm marrying you because you're a stupid peasant who wouldn't dare to fight back! I fucking detest you since the day I married you!" Vincent yelled, which he regretted immediately.

Of course, it was all a lie.

He loved Chloe so much and fell in love even harder on their wedding day. He seriously thought that nobody in this world was prettier than Chloe, and that was the start of his overbearing and controlling behavior.

But his mouth moved on its own, spouting hurtful lies to get back at Chloe, who dared to hurt his heart like this.

He gritted his teeth, trying to endure the horrible aching in his heart.

Chloe stared at Vincent in silence.

Just like what she expected.

Vincent would always return to his old method of cursing, yelling, and humiliating her whenever he got angry. He tried to make himself look presentable as if he regretted everything he had done.

But when there was just a bit of argument between them, Vincent would scream at the top of his lungs, calling her names and even going as far as beating her because she was a disobedient woman.

He never changed because violence and dominance were part of his innate personality.

Maybe the young Vincent could be changed by good teaching from his parents, but this old Vincent was far gone. There was no more chance for him to walk in a better path.

"I think we're done here," Chloe said. "I just want to talk to you, checking if you're stable enough so I can grant you visitation rights. But you're still the same monster I married ten years ago. Nothing can change you."

Vincent snapped out of his rage, realizing that his anger had again taken control of him.

He panicked and tried to stop Chloe, "W—Wait, don't leave me! I know I'm wrong. Sometimes I can't control myself. That's why I snapped. Besides, it's also your fault because you're trying to provoke me!"

"Provoking you?" Chloe's eyes widened. "You think everything I said before was to provoke you?"

"What else?" Vincent insisted. "You keep telling me that I beat you up and then tell me there is no forgiveness. You also told me there is no way I can meet with you and Mackie again! Of course, I would snap! Any sane man would snap!"

Chloe got up from her seat, facing Vincent head-on. She used her index finger to poke Vincent's chest, "And no sane man would beat his wife for no reason. No sane man would humiliate his wife, calling him an ugly whale bitch because she got fat after giving birth. No sane man would fuck another woman in front of his pregnant wife!"

"Get a grip, Vincent. You're not sane at all! You're by far the worst man I've ever encountered in my life!" Chloe couldn't hold her rage. She tried her best to be civil, but Vincent's ignorance was truly grating. "I can't believe you are still blaming me for all your faults! My God, Vincent Gray, you're truly a monster!"

Vincent was caught off guard by Chloe, who snapped back at him.

Chloe finally had enough. She grabbed her small bag and documents on the table and was about to leave.

"We're not done yet, Chloe Gray!" Vincent insisted.

Chloe looked over her shoulder, "Yes, we are. I have nothing to say to you, and I don't want to cater to your childish tantrum. Don't worry about the divorce, you won't lose anything except your status as my husband, and you will never see Mackenzie again. Goodbye, Vincent."

Vincent stared at the back of the beautiful but arrogant woman.

He remembered how obedient Chloe was when they first got married. She was sweet, meek, and wouldn't dare to argue back at him.

It was because she got freedom and thus recovered her confidence, and now she became a disobedient woman that needed to be taught a lesson again.

Vincent tried to hold himself, but he couldn't handle the idea that Chloe would be independent of him, living her best life with Vernon while he would be suffering for the rest of his life.

"I will tell the media that Vernon stole you away from me! He will be seen as a homewrecker!" Vincent said, thinking it should deter Chloe because Chloe must've cared so much about Vernon's career.

Chloe shrugged and didn't even care about looking back at him, "He is far more powerful than you, Vincent. You're going to lose everything if you dare to go against him. You should thank me because I told him I don't need your gruesome death as revenge. He is more than willing to end your life."

Vincent gritted his teeth. He was so angry at Chloe, who dared to talk back to him. Thus, in a fit of anger, he raised his hand and was about to hit Chloe on the head from behind. He guessed it should be enough to knock her out.

He knew it would only complicate things, but he didn't care anymore.

All he wanted to do was to release his frustration towards Chloe, who dared to hurt him like this!

Chloe didn't know what was about to happen to her, but she suddenly saw Vernon, who slammed the door open and dashed past her.

Chloe turned her head immediately and saw Vincent getting handled by Vernon. His face was shoved to the ground, and Vernon pulled Vincent's arm to lock him, ensuring he couldn't struggle.

He stepped on Vincent's back and pressed him deeper into the ground, "ARRGHHH!"

Vincent's cry echoed in this small room, and Chloe still tried to process what happened.

"W—What are you doing, Vernon?" She asked.

Vernon looked at his beloved and replied, "He was about to attack you from behind. I see it all, and you should see the CCTV recording."
