Chapter 123 Suffocating

"Ah?"

Jason didn't know how to answer him.

"I can't tell my boss that his wife looked quite happy, can I? After all, it is a divorce, not a wedding. But if I lie to my boss that his wife was sad, it seems too hypocritical." Jason thought.

Jason thought for a moment and said, "Mrs. Trevino didn't seem to have any reaction. She said that she will meet you at four o'clock in the afternoon."

A sneer came from the other end of the line. "She didn't have any reaction? I guess she's so happy that she laughed aloud."

His last sentence sounded like he was gnashing his teeth.

Jason was silent for two seconds and then said seriously, "It didn't seem to be that exaggerated."

If he remembered correctly, Mrs. Trevino seemed to be just smiling. Although she looked very happy, her laughter was not loud enough.

As soon as he finished speaking, it was Draven's turn to be silent.

More than ten seconds later, the phone was hung up!

Jason was speechless.

At the hospital.

The man standing in front of the window of the ward looked livid. He looked down at the mobile phone which he was gripping so hard in his hand that it is almost crushed. "It's not that exaggerated... Ha."

"Draven?"

Behind him, Aleah's soft voice came slowly.

The man turned around, and before he could hide the hostility in his eyes, he asked, "What's the matter?"

Aleah was shocked by his gaze. It was as if she could see the man in a silver mask staring down at her from above. The suffocating fear instantly filled her heart.

She shook her head in fear and said, "It's okay. I just want to say that if you have something to do, you can go back to the company first. I... am fine here. You don't have to stay here all the time." Perhaps it was because she was really scared again just now, so she looked a little pitiful at the

moment.

Draven calmed himself down and said, "I have nothing to do today, but I need to go out in the afternoon and complete the divorce formalities."

A hint of joy flashed across Aleah's eyes.

However, she controlled herself in an instant and asked, "Did Cierra agree?"

Draven sat down on the sofa in the ward. Hearing this, he paused and sneered. "I'm afraid she is eager to divorce me as soon as possible."

His resentful tone chilled her joy at once.

No matter how stup*d she was, she could tell that he was not satisfied with the divorce.

However, he didn't seem to know it at all.

Aleah raised her eyes and looked at the man's cold and hard side face. She bit her lip and said, "Draven, if you don't want to divorce my sister, you can talk to her. My sister used to like you so much, and she probably didn't want to either."

Frowning, Draven looked up and said, "None of your nonsense!"

The man's words were cold, and Aleah's eyes immediately became wet.

"Draven, I know you're very disappointed with me now, and you won't marry me again. I have wanted to die, but I didn't. I'll be a laughing stock in front of everyone."

"I'm sorry for what I have done to Cierra before. I'll ask my mother to return those things to her. As for the money, I haven't let my mother take it. Just take it as compensation for my mistakes in the past. I won't threaten her with my illness again. It's my fault."

"Lastly, I've troubled you again for the past two days. Don't worry, I won't disturb you anymore.

You can live a good life with the Cierra..."

She choked with s*bs and squeezed out two drops of tears. She looked so pitiful.

Looking at her, he frowned even more. "Aleah, I never said I wouldn't marry you."

Hearing that, the woman lying on the hospital bed was stunned for a moment, as if she did not

understand what he meant.

Draven got up from the sofa and looked at her. "Don't let your imagination run wild. I won't go back on my word." Aleah was delighted secretly.

She had thought that this matter would make him very angry. At least, she wouldn't dare to take the

Initiative to mention marriage for a long time

Therefore, she took a step back in order to advance. She didn't expect it to work so quickly.

"But I've done so many wrong things..

Aleah didn't look too happy. On the contrary, she felt a little uneasy.

He was silent for a moment.

It was true that when he learned the truth, he did not want to marry her anymore.

The man tapped his fingers and said in a low voice, "It's good that you know your mistake. Don't do it again in the future."

Aleah nodded repeatedly. "I know I was wrong, and the price I paid this time is enough to wake me up. I promise I won't do anything to Cierra again." "Hmm." He didn't say anything else.

He thought that he would no longer have anything to do with Cierra in the future and that after he

married Aleah, there would probably be no any trouble.

Because of what had happened before, he would modify some terms of the divorce agreement as

compensation.

From now on, they would never contact each other again.

"By the way, Draven, may I ask where you were last night?"

After a moment of silence, Aleah couldn't help but speak.

"It rained heavily last night and it was still thundering. I couldn't get through to you..."

Draven was in a trance.

He thought of Cierra, who had been so scared that she acted like an ignorant child the night before. He also remembered that there were also many scars on her body, as well as its fragrance that had wrapped him up...

"Draven?"

Aleah called out to him and stared straight at him.

Draven came back to his senses, and his eyes were dark. "Send me whatever dress you like, as well as the design of the ring. I remember that I still have something to deal with. I'm sorry to leave you alone." As soon as he finished speaking, he left.

As for Aleah's question, he didn't explain it at all.

The door of the ward was gently closed, and the gentle face of the wornan on the bed instantly

darkened.

Looking at the message she received, she was so angry that she wanted to smash her phone.

"Cierra, you sl*t!" Aleah thought.

The message on her phone was sent by the masked man. The blank profile picture's nickname was C, which was very similar to that of Draven, but the latter was F.

It said that Draven had spent the entire night in the the Trevino family's old mansion last night and only came out this morning. Not long after, Cierra also came out and Ms. Trevino saw her off with a

smile.

In other words, Cierra and Draven had stayed in the Trevino family's old mansion for the night.

In Aleah's opinion, with Ms. Trevino's matchmaking, they probably had lived in the same room.

It was hard to imagine that nothing had happened between a man and a woman on a stormy night.

When Aleah saw the following words, she was so angry that she wanted to delete this horrible man directly from her phone.

But she didn't dare.

After taking a deep breath, she replied.

Aleah: [Draven has agreed to marry me. He will go through the divorce formalities with Cierra this

afternoon.]

The person on the other end of the line suddenly stopped some fanciful thoughts.

Then, he sent a congratulatory message.

A smile finally appeared on Aleah's face, but it froze in an instant.

C: [I hope you can get the marriage certificate and hold a wedding successfully, otherwise... you understand.]
