Chapter 131 Avoiding Suspicion

Draven frowned when he saw the name.

Then, he crossed it out and drew the contract aside.

Ryan,

who was sitting on the sofa, did not think too much about Aleah's matter. He tasted each of the four boxes of snacks, then he put them down and wiped his hands with a tissue. His tone was as casual as usual.

"You can do whatever you want. Anyway, it's you who gets married, not me. But as your buddy, I've said what I should say. Don't regret it in the future. In addition, I have to warn you that I won't go to your wedding."

"Up to you."

Draven began to deal with the documents on the table.

Ryan looked up at him and saw his tired face. In the end, he couldn't help but speak.

"There are no urgent projects recently. You can go back and have a rest. You don't need to be busy all the time. Didn't you spend money to hire so many people?"

Without raising his head, Draven flipped through the documents in his hand and said, "I couldn't fall asleep because I was woken up by you."

He was not sleepy at all. Although he had been woken up by Cierra in the midnight, it was rare for him to have a good dream, and not to need the help of medicine.

When he got the medicine from Dr. Chant this morning, the results of the fatigue test were normal.

As for the exhaustion at this moment, on the one hand, it was because of the side effects of the medicine he had just taken. On the other hand, these things really gave him a headache.

It seemed that everything about Cierra annoyed him.

Thinking of her, he put down his pen.

He looked down and saw that another contract was invalid.

Draven pressed between his eyebrows and stopped reading the documents.

He sorted out the two contracts and sent them to Jason, asking him to print them out and send them

over. Then he sat on the sofa opposite Ryan, with a cup of coffee.

His deep gaze swept across the table, and then he unceremoniously took a piece of dessert and put

it into his mouth.

The sweet and soft taste instantly dispelled the distress in his chest, and even his eyebrows relaxed.

At the same time, a sense of familiarity rose in his mind again.

When he tried to catch the hint, all he got was the sweetness of food.

He couldn't remember anything.

Frowning, he picked up another piece as if he was unconvinced.

Ryan suddenly raised his head and couldn't help but click his tongue when he saw what was happening. His expression was very complicated. "Hey, Draven, you've just divorced, and now you're cating snacks made by your ex-wife. It's not good, is it?"

"Why?"

Draven looked unperturbed.

Ryan was speechless. "What do you think? You've divorced her, and you're still eating what she made herself. Should you avert suspicion?

"If Aleah sees this, she'll definitely fight with you. Thank goodness she's in the hospital right now."

There was a hint of sarcasm in the last sentence, but overall, it could be regarded as Ryan's

experience.

He had seen countless women. After breaking up, his ex-girlfriends blacklisted him and claimed that he was dead. And his current girlfriends easily lost temper everytime getting involved in his ex-girlfriends'

matters.

Therefore, he stopped having girlfriends and only looked for those who didn't care about love.

Of course, except for Cici, he added in his heart.

However, Draven was still confused.

He looked straight at Ryan with his dark eyes. His tone was frank.

"Since she has given it to me, it means that she doesn't mind. It's not a big deal for me to eat some.

What's more, she also knows that this marriage is a mistake. If it weren't for grandpa, there wouldn't have been such twists and turns. Divorce is natural. Why should I avoid suspicion?" After pausing for a while, he continued.

"As for Aleah, she can't see it. Even if she knew, she wouldn't mind."

Ryan sneered, then sighed with emotion and looked up at the sky.

Draven must have been taken too much medicine.

His IQ was quite high. How could his EQ be a negative number?

Draven couldn't figure out what was wrong with his mind, but he could see the meaning of Ryan's

actions.

He frowned. "Is there a problem?"

"There are problems everywhere."

Ryan sat up straight on the sofa and analyzed the situation for Draven, thinking that it was better to

educate him.

"First of all, Cici just sent these things out of courtesy. She politely gave a little reward to Jason, who ran errands for her. It's the same for the others.

"Secondly, although your marriage was appointed by the your grandpa, did Cici like you since she was a child and longed to marry you? Since your relationship is not pure, you naturally have to avoid arousing suspicion. And even if there is nothing between you before, you have to avoid suspicion. There is no pure relationship between men and women.

"In the end, you said that Aleah wouldn't mind, so let me ask you, what's wrong with Cici's injury? We can't even talk about the past. In the past, it couldn't be blamed on you. I just asked why Aleah was still targeting Cici after she came back. It's all because of her title as Mrs. Trevino. Do you think that woman is generous and kind?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the office fell silent for a moment.

There was a knock on the door, breaking the deadlock.

Jason pushed the door open and didn't know if he should come in. He asked tentatively, "Mr. Trevino, the document has been copied."

Draven didn't say anything.

Ryan raised his chin and said, "Just put it down."

"Yes!" Jason came in and put down the documents. He ran away faster than a rabbit.

The frosted glass door closed and the office fell silent again.

After a long while, Draven said, "I didn't think too much about it."

He took a tissue to wipe his fingers. Obviously, he would not touch those snacks again.

Ryan snorted. "It's not that you're not thinking too much. You just don't understand women."

He sighed with emotion and leaned lazily on the sofa.

This was one of the reasons why he didn't want Draven to marry Aleah.

Aleah was two-faced. She was jealous and very different in front of others. After becoming Mrs. Trevino, she would probably deal with any woman who approached Draven.

Ryan wanted to remind his good friend, but he raised his eyes and glanced at Draven, stopping himself from saying anything.

What if Draven was willing to do so?

After all, he was always abroad and Draven had spent lots of time with Aleah. Draven knew Aleah better than him.

Besides, everyone had seen what happened at the the Boyle family's dinner party last time.

Forget it, no need to talk about it.

It was better to talk business between brothers

Ryan sat up straight and turned the computer on the coffee table toward Draven.

"Draven, take a look at this."

The public opinion on the Internet was still growing,

Because of the negative impact on Draven, the Trevino Group's stock price continued to decline.

Even though the public relationships department of the Trevino Group had begun to take action and even spent money to reduce the popularity, it still couldn't stop the public from gossiping. What's more, some people wanted to reduce the popularity, while others wanted to increase it.

Some people

of posts on thoked at the stock market with sadness on their faces, while others looked at all kinds

of posts on the Internet and laughed happily.

After coming back from L'Opera Restaurant, Cierra had been reading all kinds of posts on her phone. She couldn't hold back her smile as she read the comments.

To her surprise, an anonymous forum released the news that Aleah had just been detained and asked why the Trevino family wanted to marry a transgressor. Soon, the post became quite popular.
