Divorced My Scum Husband, Married His Evil brother

Chapter 791  Side Story: Mackie’s Diary (3)

Mackie and Vernon finished their breakfast and went to their respective bedroom simultaneously. Vernon wore his suit, and Mackie checked her homework to ensure she didn't miss any of them.

They returned to the living room, ready to start the day, "I'm going now, see you at dinner, Mommy!"

"Don't forget that you have a theater practice after school, okay?"

"Yeah!"

Vernon kissed his wife's lips and asked, "So, any activity today?"

"I'm going to meet with Kate and her children in the morning, as usual," Chloe replied. "Then I will bring your lunch at noon. I'll bring Cedric and Val with me."

"That's good. Maybe we can set up a family vacation together with them later," Vernon said.

"We can think about that later. You should go now. You have an important meeting today, right?"

"Yeah, but don't worry, your husband will be able to handle everything… as long as you give me a kiss," Vernon said.

Chloe's cheeks reddened again, but she kissed him on the lips and murmured, "Scoundrel."

After the kiss, Vernon felt a huge boost of energy and kissed his children before leaving for work.

"Bye-bye, Daddy!"

"Uaaa! Ah!" Valerie waved at her father, and baby Cedric did the same.

Chloe patted Valerie's head and said, "Alright, you should get ready too. You don't want Aunt Kate to wait for too long, right? We're going to the park today."

"Whoo! Yes!"

Mackie and Vernon walked out of the main door side by side, and they were greeted by Meyer and Diamond, who stood in front of different cars.

Meyer, as usual, would drive Mackie to her school before working at Mr. Phoenix Gray's office.

Meanwhile, Diamond would be in the same car with her boss, Mr. Vernon Phoenix Gray.

Six years had passed, and they were still a couple.

Diamond and Meyer were truly similar in many ways. They were both professional at work and understood when to relax and to work.

Unlike Vernon and Chloe, who still had a few little fights sometimes, Meyer and Diamond seemed to understand each other well.

In fact, they were so compatible that Mackie could see a pair of matching rings on their fingers.

Meyer and Diamond engaged last year in Spring and planned to marry next year.

"Good morning, Diamond, Meyer!"

"Good morning, Miss,"

"Morning, Mackie!"

Diamond bent her back towards Mackie as she wore a high heel and then handed her a bar of luxury chocolate, "Here's the Belgian chocolate I promised you when I was on a business trip a few days ago."

"Ohh! Thanks, Diamond!" Mackie accepted the chocolate and quickly stuffed it in her bag, afraid her Mommy would confiscate it.

Of course, for the daughter of a billionaire, something like chocolate was so menial. But Chloe raised her children strictly regarding food because she had a long history of eating disorders when she lived with Vincent.

She wanted her children to eat everything in moderation. But Mackie was a sweet tooth, just like her father. So she often sneaks some chocolate and candies because eating moderately wasn't in her dictionary when it was about sweets.

Vernon said nothing as he saw the illegal transaction between Diamond and Mackie.

Chloe would scold them for eating too many sweets, but Vernon understood the craving really well, so he said nothing, silently becoming the partner-in-crime for his Little Wolf.

"Let's go, Diamond. Give me all the topics for today's meeting," Vernon said.

"Yes, Sir. I've prepared everything," Diamond said as she followed Vernon into his car, and they drove away first.

Mackie stood in front of Meyer and asked, "Did Aaron go with the other driver today?"

"Yes, Miss. He said he has a club practice today, so he can't slack off," Meyer replied. He opened the car door and said, "Come in, Miss. You can't be late for school."

Meyer drove the car out of the Phoenix mansion. They were sitting in silence until Mackie broke the silence, "Meyer, lately I have been wondering."

"About what, Miss?"

"About my father."

"Mr. Phoenix Gray?"

"No, not Daddy," Mackie sighed. "I mean my biological father, Vincent Gray. Where is he right now? Is he still alive?"

…

Meyer went silent instantly. He knew that Mackenzie would eventually ask about Vincent Gray.

"Do you want to meet him, Miss?" Meyer asked.

"Yeah," Mackie said. She looked out the window, staring at the woods. "I have a few questions for him."

…

"Unfortunately, I don't think you can meet him for now until you are eighteen and ready," Meyer said. "Your father, he is—"

"—No need to tell me about it, Meyer. I know what kind of person my father is. After all, I spent my childhood with him. Just because now that I have Daddy doesn't mean I will forget everything that happened before in my family."

Meyer didn't dare to say anything after that, afraid his words might incite an idea in Mackie's head.

"But, I understand why I can't visit him. After all, my father did so many awful things to Mommy…"

Meyer kept his silence until they arrived at the school gate.

Meyer opened the car door for Mackenzie, and Mackie smiled at Meyer, "Thank you, Meyer! Have a good day at work!"

Meyer smiled at his little Miss, who had blossomed into a beautiful and cheerful teenage girl, "Thank you, Miss, you should have fun at school as well."

Mackie spent the whole time at school thinking about her biological father, Vincent Gray.

Seven years had passed since the last time she saw him, and it was in the worst state possible because she remembered clearly how she saw her father beating the hell out of her mother in the Principal's office.

Mackie never asked about Vincent after that, knowing he had become a trauma that her mother didn't want to repeat.

But still, Mackie wondered about her real father's condition right now.

'Is he still alive? Or did Daddy do something to him?' Mackie wondered.
