Chapter 43 Draven Throws Cierra’s Clothes Away
Cierra was deliberately obtuse. “What are you talking about? I don’t remember.”
“You asked
“Will you?”
Before Draven finished his words, Cierra interrupted him.
She stopped at the steps leading into the villa and turned to look at Draven.
Cierra had gone up one step, so she could look into Draven’s eyes.
“Of course not.”
Draven frowned. Although he did not know why Cierra asked that, he answered her.
“Well, it’s settled. Why did you ask that?” Cierra shrugged.
She turned again and took off her high heels. She stepped on the ground barefoot, looking tired.
Draven’s frown deepened when he realized Cierra had changed the topic.
Draven wanted to ask Cierra why she asked that question. On the contrary, she asked him for an answer.
”
Draven went up to Cierra and said, “I don’t know what you have experienced and why you asked me such a question. Cierra, life and death are not trifles. I can’t escape punishment if I kill someone or break the law. Even if I can, I will not do that to you.”
How could the company’s secret compare with Cierra’s life?
Cierra suddenly stopped.
She did not turn around but remained silent on the spot. Then, she forced a smile.
“I have experienced nothing special. Life and death are not trifles. Therefore, I will live well.”
Cierra said that to Draven as well as to herself.
She walked slowly and mounted the steps.
From then on, she could call it even.
Draven did not disturb Cierra and followed her quietly, watching her walk slowly like a child.
Ernest said Cierra liked to hold Draven’s hand when she learned to walk. Draven suddenly remembered that.
Cierra held Draven’s hand first. When she walked steadily, she released his hand. Then, she looked back at him with a smile to ask for praise.
Draven didn’t remember that, but Ernest mentioned that frequently when he was alive. Therefore, Draven had the scene in his
mind.
However, the girl walking in front of Draven did not look back at him.
She went into the villa directly.
“Do you live here recently?”
When Cierra found someone living in the villa, she was surprised.
Draven loosened his tie and threw it onto the sofa. He poured two cups of water and went to Cierra. “I’ve always lived here.”
Hearing that, Cierra froze in place.
Did Draven live there?
If Cierra remembered correctly, the villa was prepared for Draven and her to get married. However, she stayed there for one night and was sent abroad.
Cierra could hardly believe Draven lived there.
The villa would make him unhappy.
“Don’t you want to drink?”
Draven was still holding the cup for Cierra.
Cierra was thirsty. She took over the cup and said, “Thank you.”
The water was warm. It was still warm when it went into Cierra’s stomach, making her feel better. NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.
Cierra didn’t care what Draven was doing and sat on the sofa. She was afraid of staining the sofa, so she put a small blanket below her.
Draven glanced at Cierra and went into the kitchen.
Ten minutes later, a cup of hot coffee was placed in front of Cierra.
“Try this.”
Draven took the water away.
“Did you make it?”
Cierra was surprised.
It was not the only thing that surprised her.
Draven bent over in front of her and held her ankle. Then, he wiped her feet with a warm towel.
Although Draven was noble, he felt nothing wrong when he did that. On the contrary, he said casually, “Mrs. Trevino, don’t you know the answer? Is there another person in Stream Villa?”
Cierra’s heart skipped a beat. When she came to her senses, she subconsciously wanted to withdraw her feet.
Before Cierra did that, Draven had let go of her feet.
Then, a pair of pink velvet slippers were placed beside Cierra’s feet.
“Don’t be willful during your period. I forgot just now. Next time, don’t walk barefoot on the ground. Okay?”
As Draven spoke, he took a wet tissue and wiped his hand before putting the coffee into Cierra’s hand.
“It’s not very hot. You can hold it. After drinking it, go upstairs to take a rest. The clothes for you are clean.”
The warmth and flavor of the coffee finally made Cierra come to her senses.
AL
She did not refuse Draven and took a sip of the coffee.
With just one sip, Cierra put the coffee down and looked up at Draven. “Draven, why did you prepare clothes for a woman in Stream Villa? Have you invited Aleah here?”
In fact, Cierra wanted to ask if Draven had always been considerate to Aleah.
However, Cierra thought the question in her mind would be humiliating to her. The question she asked seemed to be more
relative to her.
If Cierra remembered correctly, she had taken all her belongings with her when she and William left Stream Villa.
However, Draven said the clothes for her were clean.
Why did Draven prepare clothes for her?
Were the clothes prepared for Aleah? Although Draven and Aleah didn’t feel uncomfortable staying in Stream Villa, Cierra did.
Draven answered without hesitation. “The clothes here are for you. You and Aleah are different in size. Besides, why did I
invite her here?”
“For me?”
Cierra frowned.
She had moved away from Stream Villa and had no intention of moving back. Was there something wrong with Draven? Why did he prepare clothes for her?
Obviously, Draven did not want to explain.
Draven would not tell Cierra about that. After Cierra left, Draven felt there was something wrong in the villa. Therefore, he had someone buy some clothes for her.
Draven had been fine for three years without Cierra. However, he felt strange when she came back
Draven took his tie and was about to leave. “I’ll go upstairs first. You can go up later.”
“Hold on. I want to talk to you.”
Cierra stood up.
Cierra remembered why she followed Draven to the villa, so she would not let him go easily.
Draven seemed to know what Cierra wanted to say and said, “Let’s talk about it tomorrow. It’s late. Go to bed early.”
“What if you disappear tomorrow morning? Do I have to stay here? How about putting the company’s affairs aside tomorrow and meeting the lawyer with me? You are unreliable. It is more efficient for us to do that together.”
Cierra said straightforwardly before Draven left.
Draven stopped on the stairs and looked back at Cierra. “Did you come back with me for the divorce?”
Cierra said angrily, “Is there another reason? Do we have anything else to talk about?”
Draven stared at Cierra gloomily.
After a while, he suddenly stepped towards her.
“Mrs. Trevino, I’ve made it clear. I will divorce you when you break up with the Barton family.”
As soon as Draven finished his words, the suit on Cierra’s shoulders fell to the ground.
