Chapter 49 What If I Don’t Divorce?
“No, I don’t dare to…”
Before Aleah could finish her sentence, the words were stifled in her throat.
The man held her neck and slowly tightened his grip.
As he looked at Aleah’s face which became red from suffocation, his smile grew even wider.
Aleah looked at the man in front of her in horror. She slapped his arm with all her strength and struggled to escape from the grip. Unfortunately, it was useless.
Only when she struggled less and less, like a fish on the beach that was on the verge of death, did the man release his hand as if he was being merciful.
“It is Cierra’s ability that she can escape from my hands. What I do, whether I fail or not, is not something you can comment
on.”
The man looked down at Aleah, who was gasping with her hands on her neck, and his tone was contemptuous.
“Do you really think that all men in the world will do anything for you just because of your beautiful face?”
He thought, what a joke!
I am not that idiot, Draven!
“Then why did you help me?”
Aleah curled up on the bed, unable to stop herself from trembling, but she still couldn’t help but ask.
Everything was fine before and the man gave her whatever she wanted. Aleah had no idea why suddenly he changed.
“Maybe it’s because I was too bored before.”
The man tilted his head, his lips curling into a sneer. At the same time, he bent and slowly pressed down on Aleah.
Thinking of the horrible scene just now, Aleah retreated in horror. “I beg you… Please let me go!”
“Tsk tsk, you have such a vicious heart, yet you are so timid. When you asked me to make Cierra disappear in this world, weren’t you very bold, huh?”
He patted Aleah’s face.
Then, a smell of urine emanated from her body.
The man’s hands stopped moving, and the playfulness in his eyes was replaced by disgust..
He straightened up, and his lazy tone became cold. “You better pray that you can marry Draven successfully. Otherwise, I’m afraid I will regret sleeping with you. At that time, how you will end…”
He said no more, but it was enough to make Aleah fear.
Aleah watched the man leave, her fists slowly tightening.
She shouted inside, devil!
He is a devil!
Cierra… It is all her fault!
If not for Cierra, I wouldn’t have made a deal with a devil!
I would definitely not let her off!
And Draven…
I would definitely marry him.
I swear!
The next day, at the president’s office of the Trevino Group.
Draven’s expression was cold. His gaze fell on the computer screen in front of him. He did not move for a long time. During the entire morning, other than repeatedly watching this surveillance video, he did not do anything else.
The video showed that after Cierra was chased out of Stream Villa last night, she held her stomach under the tree and waited. In the end, she threw herself into a man’s arms.
The more Draven looked at the video, the more he became depressed.
However, he refused to turn it off. He watched it over and over again, as if he was torturing himself.
Cierra once claimed that in this marriage, she had not done anything to betray him.
It seemed that she lied to him again!
When the woman in the video once again threw herself into the man’s arms, Draven finally did not want to continue watching. He pressed his forehead and closed his eyes.
When Ryan pushed open the office door and entered, this was the scene he saw.
He yawned and said, “Tsk, who provoked our Draven today? He has such a long face in the early morning, and I can smell something in the air.”
As he spoke, he even sniffed in the air.
Draven opened his eyes and gave him a cold look.
Ryan didn’t mind at all. He leaned over and sat directly on Draven’s desk.
“I wasn’t wrong. Can’t you smell it yourself? There’s a smell of gunpowder.”
Draven retracted his gaze, and the emotions on his face also faded a little.
“If you really can’t find anything to do, you can go back to Chicago. I think Bruno doesn’t mind having one more tough guy at
his side.”
“Bah, he is a tough guy!”
Ryan was so angry that he stomped his feet and got down from the table.
Just as he was about to say something, he suddenly caught a glimpse of the computer screen on the table, and the words that
48.50%
were about to come out of his mouth suddenly changed.
“Eh, isn’t this Cici? You turned around and left last night, taking her to Stream Villa. But why was she still outside? And she looked so pitiful…
Η
Ryan looked at the surveillance camera in surprise. Before he could finish speaking, Draven pressed the pause button with a
cold face.
Unfortunately, it was too late. The video happened to show the scene of Cierra throwing herself into Coby’s arms, and Ryan’s words stopped at his throat.
After a while, he whined, “Damn, who is this man? I have never hugged my darling, but he actually hugged our Cici!” Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.
Furthermore, it was Cici who took the initiative to throw herself into the man’s arms!
It was so unfair!
“Ryan!”
Before Ryan could finish showing his jealousy, he was coldly interrupted by Draven.
Draven gnashed his teeth.
Ryan could understand Draven. They were both men, after all.
Ryan glanced at Draven from the corners of his eyes. “Why are you glaring at me? Cici wasn’t hugging me. Fine, she is your wife, okay? You make it sound like your wife has hugged you before.”
When he finished speaking, Draven’s expression became sullener.
He did not argue. He looked at the screen with a cold face. He only felt that the hug was very glaring.
He wondered, if I had gone out earlier last night, would there have been such a scene?
“By the way, how could Cici know the best actor? Moreover, their relationship is even closer than that of the two kids from the Barton family last night. You said that Cici and that Barton kid from XR Entertainment were very close. Is it because of this best actor?”
Ryan looked at the scene on the screen and stroked his chin in thought. He did not notice how pale the man behind him looked.
Of course, Ryan did not forget his question. He turned his head and looked at Draven.
“Also, why was Cici outside alone? She is your ex–wife. Why didn’t you let her stay in Stream Villa for a night? You are so
mean!”
Ryan had attended their wedding and knew that the villa was their wedding house. Seeing the surveillance footage, he only thought that Draven was dissatisfied with their marriage and did not let Cierra stay.
“What does it have to do with me if she doesn’t want to stay in Stream Villa?”
Draven said coldly.
Last night, when Draven asked Cierra to leave, she left without saying a word, and she even said that she was unwilling to live there before. Draven couldn’t understand why Ryan thought it was his fault.
The divorce agreement also clearly stated that Stream Villa would belong to her, but she actually moved her things out the
night she signed it. She really wanted to cut off everything with Draven!
Draven was angry.
However, he did not forget to remind Ryan, “Also, I haven’t completed the divorce procedures with her yet. How can she be my ex–wife?”
Ryan frowned as he looked at the computer. “When will you finish divorcing then? I’m still waiting for you to divorce so I can pursue Cici.”
To Draven, a love rival had already appeared before he and Cierra even divorced.
He couldn’t let others beat him to it.
“What if I don’t divorce?”
Draven suddenly asked.
“Then won’t you marry Aleah?
Speak of the devil!
Ryan asked in surprise.
As soon as Ryan’s confused voice fell, someone knocked on the office door.
Ryan did not close the door when he came in. The door was ajar, and when the knock sounded, the door was pushed open, revealing Aleah’s delicate face.
She still maintained the gesture of knocking on the door as she smiled, “Draven, can I come in?”
