Chapter 124 Cooperation

When Braylen saw that Darlene was suspicious, he laughed. “What? You don’t believe me? Ms. Garciashould know about it, right? The law firm of the Swale family is the most famous one in the country,especially in the divorce lawsuit. They have never

failed.”

Darlene’s expression did not change much. She replied, “You don’t need to help me, but

thank you.”

The person she had just met suddenly offered to help her. There would not be such a good thing in theworld. Darlene was not a fool. She would not believe that Braylen was

a charitable person.

“If you don’t believe it, just regard it as a joke,” Braylen said slowly..

“I will give you a detailed method to win the divorce lawsuit and get money. How about it? Are youinterested?”

Darlene looked at Braylen for a moment. She knew that Braylen must be planning something, but for hernow, there was nothing to lose..

As for her brother and grandmother, Braylen naturally would not be interested in them.

Darlene was silent for a long time. In the end, she felt that his words were a little. tempting. She replied,“I don’t need money. As long as I can get a divorce, my brother and grandmother will stay with me. If youhave any conditions, you can just tell me. But

I may not have anything to repay you.”

Braylen looked at her face with a smile and remembered what Adam had said.

He had to admit that her appearance did seem to be somewhat similar to his.

Braylen was not very interested in this. He half–jokingly replied, “Your grandmother and brother are yourrelatives, not the child you have with Avery. How could they not stay with you?

“Once the marriage is over, they will only be your relatives. They have nothing to do with Avery. Nomatter how capable Avery is, how can he let someone else’s grandmother and brother belong to him?”

Darlene subconsciously clenched her fists. She wanted to take a gamble. “Of course, you

won’t help me for free. Do you have any conditions?”

“Conditions,” Braylen smiled and took a step forward. He lowered his eyes and looked at her. “Shall wespend a lovely night together and celebrate?”

Darlene’s face froze, and a trace of disgust appeared in her eyes. “If you want to tell a joke, you mighthave found the wrong person. I don’t have any sense of humor.”

She directly bypassed him and tried to open the door and leave.

Braylen immediately took a step back and stopped her. “I didn’t say anything. Can’t we have a good timeand drink together?”

He narrowed his eyes as if he was sizing up some interesting little animal. “Ms. Garcia, what are youthinking about?”

Darlene moved sideways to distance herself from him. She was a little regretful that she

talked to him too much.

“Mr. Swale, I am not worthy. With your family background and identity…”

“Ms. Garcia, don’t look down on yourself. What I am interested in is naturally the most valuable thing.”Braylen interrupted her.

He probably saw that she was really angry and did not continue to joke around. “You are right. I don’t likedoing charity. As for the conditions, of course, there are other things. If you don’t want money, I want it.

“I will help you in court and get a few shares of the Gallard Group. When the time. comes, the divorcecertificate will belong to you, and the shares will be given to me.

How about it?”

When he finished speaking, he saw that Darlene was skeptical and said with a smile,

“Ms. Garcia, are you feeling sorry for your future ex–husband? My appetite is not small. The shares ofthe Gallard Group are very valuable.

“Of course, you don’t have to ask for them. As long as you commission the lawyer on my side to file alawsuit, I will naturally be able to get the shares for you.”

He was like a greedy businessman.

Businessmen were always after profit. As for whether he was familiar with Darlene or not, it didn’t matter.

It was enough for each of them to get what they wanted. If they could cooperate, they would naturally befriends.

Darlene looked at him. Braylen wanted the shares of the Gallard Group. She only needed to get adivorce. Speaking of which, she was not at a disadvantage.

If they successfully divorced, taking the shares would be Braylen’s problem.

If they did not get a divorce, she would not lose anything. As for the shares that Braylen wanted, henaturally would not be able to get them.

Darlene looked at him. “Can you help me get a divorce?”

Braylen still had a smile on his face, but his smile was fake. Darlene could see it.

“Of course, if Ms. Garcia can show sincerity, I will show my sincerity.

“When the thing is over, can we spend a night together celebrating? Ms. Garcia, don’t tell me you don’tbelieve in me. When it comes to cooperation, the most important thing is that both sides trust eachother.”

Darlene clenched her fists tightly. She suddenly felt that it wouldn’t matter.

If they divorced successfully, she would probably not live long.

After getting the divorce certificate, she would settle her grandmother and brother, and then she woulddie. At least when she died, she would no longer be Avery’s wife, and she

would lead a better life.

As for Braylen’s requests, if he was interested in a corpse, he would just get it as a gift.

Her eyes were lowered, and her face was hidden in the shadows.

When Braylen felt a little disappointed and thought that she would refuse, she raised her head and said,“Okay, as long as I get a divorce, I can agree to your request.”

Braylen was stunned for a moment. He still had a faint smile on his face, but there was a trace of disdainin his eyes.

He extended a hand toward Darlene. “Oh, is that so? Then we have to sign the contract first.”

Darlene nodded, her hand trembling as he held her hand. “Okay.”

Braylen said, “Then I hope that we can have a good time together, Ms. Garcia.” He was obviouslyimplying something.

Darlene felt a little breathless. She could feel that Braylen was looking down on her.

But these were no longer important. If he just played with her, it would not affect her at

all.

But if Braylen helped her win the lawsuit for the sake of the Gallard Group’s shares, then she would winthe bet.

She felt a little scared, and the disdain on Braylen’s face made her not dare to look up again.

After leaving Braylen her number, Darlene opened the door and left the fire escape to

the ward.

The fire door closed, and Braylen was still standing inside. The smile on his face disappeared in aninstant.

He took out a handkerchief from the pocket of his suit and carefully wiped the hand that he had just heldwith Darlene. He carefully wiped all five fingers and then threw the handkerchief into the trash can at theside.

Braylen looked at the empty air and sneered in a low voice, “I said it was all the same. Look, all of youwomen are the same.

“You always liked to make a lofty appearance in front of people. But all of you want to pounce on a manimmediately whenever possible.”

His eyes were dark, and his smile was stiff. “Was that how that man took you away? Just

a few ridiculous promises, and he took you to his bed.”

He sneered. “You are so cheap.”

As soon as Darlene went out, she met Avery, who was rushing over from the other side

of the corridor.

His face was gloomy. When he saw Darlene, he frowned and let out a sigh of relief. “I was looking for youfor a long time. Where did you go? Why did you go for so long?”
