Divorced but Delighted
Chapter 155

Chapter 155 Is This What You Meant by Having Nothing To Do With Each Other?

He was not in the mood to negotiate, but he still agreed.

As if she was afraid that he would go back on his word, she repeated, "Really? Did you not lie to

me?"

"It's true. I'm not lying to you."

He feared the girl before would cry, so he coaxed her helplessly and dotingly, "When you want to go back, set a time and let me know in advance, okay?"

As soon as he finished speaking, she threw herself into his arms. "I know you dote on me the most, but I have to stay in New York for another two days. I'll discuss when to go home with you."

After getting a positive answer, a smile appeared on Cierra's face. She loosened her grip on his neck and carefully checked the bouquet in her arms.

If she continued to hug him, her roses would probably break down.

At this point, how could William not understand that Cierra was pretending it?

There were no tears on her face at all. Except for her red eyes, there was no sign of crying.

"How dare you lie to me!"

He stopped coaxing her and got angry first.

Cierra was not afraid of him. She snorted and said, "You taught me. If I don't know how to lie, can I be your sister?"

William was so angry that he laughed, speechless.

how

Cierra took the initiative and pouted, "I don't care. Anyway, you promised me you wouldn't lie to

me."

William couldn't be bothered to pay attention to her. He snorted and turned around but didn't mention not going back. He consented.

He didn't have to argue with this girl. Since he had already said it, he would do it as he spoke.

Moreover, he had only promised to send her back. He had not said that he would meet anyone with

her.

Cierra also knew this was an agreement, but she could tell William was unhappy after being deceived by her.

She immediately approached him, protected the flowers with one hand, held his arm with the

other, and acted like a spoiled child.

"I know that you are the best. You won't lie to me and won't bear to let me leave New York like this. When I see Ms. Navarro someday, I will put in good words for you in front of her. Also, these flowers will not affect your marriage. After all, Ms. Navarro also knows the relationship between us. It doesn't matter if you give me more."

"Cici Barton, are you looking for trouble?"

He sn*tched the roses from her and said, "You heartless girl. How dare you make fun of your brother after sacrificing my marriage to give you the flowers you like?"

"Ouch, be gentle. Don't break the flowers."

Cierra was lower than William. He took the roses, and she couldn't grab them even if she h**ked his hands. She could only pretend to be pitiful. "I was wrong. I won't tease you anymore. Give them back to me quickly. I'm starving. I haven't even had dinner yet."

"Serves you right for throwing a tantrum."

William didn't tease her much. Seeing she h**ked her hands and jumped a few times, he gave her the flowers and walked toward the L'Opera Restaurant.

"I'm sorry. I apologize to you."

Cierra knew it was her fault, so she said softly to him. She didn't even check the flowers to see if they were broken and quickly chased after William.

After catching up with him in a few steps, she tilted her head and looked at William. Seeing his casual expression, she was trying to say something about what would happen after she returned to the Barton family.

As far as she knew, William seemed to be fooling around, but he was stubborn about some things.

He might be conflicted for the rest of his life if he didn't speak out.

Just as she was about to speak, someone suddenly grabbed her by the collar and pulled her back.

Frightened, Cierra looked back and exclaimed, "Who is it?!"

She turned her head and met Draven's deep and angry eyes. Thinking that she had been photographed today, she became even more furious.

"Draven, are you crazy? Let go of me!"

She was dragged to him by the collar. After standing still, she could only turn her head and glare at

him.

Draven turned a deaf ear to her complaints. He lowered his eyes and glanced at the roses in her

arms.

William stopped when he heard the noise. He was amused and angry when he turned around and saw the scene before them.

He looked straight into Draven's eyes. His lazy voice was very casual.

"Mr. Trevino, what do mean?"

you

"Mr. Barton, what do you mean? You know she is my wife, but you still sent her roses openly."

Draven also raised his eyes and said in an indifferent voice.

A smile appeared on William's face as if he had heard a funny joke. "Your wife? If I remember correctly, Mr. Trevino should have signed a divorce agreement with Cici long ago. You also went through the divorce formalities a few days ago. It's not appropriate for you to call her wife, is it?"

He stood on the steps before L'Opera Restaurant, looking down at Draven.

"What a joke! I didn't see you doing anything when Cici married you. Now that you've divorced her, you keep calling her wife. It's so ironic."

"Mr. Trevino, I have nothing to do with you anymore. Could you please let go of me?" said Cierra.

It was almost time for dinner. Although many guests had not arrived, strangers occasionally looked

at them.

She didn't want to see any posts related to him on the news when she woke up the following day. Moreover, the photo was taken in such a posture, so she had nowhere to hide.

And now...

The confrontation wasn't just related to the two; William might also be implicated.

The argument between the CEO of XR Entertainment and the CEO of the Trevino Group was enough to cause a sensation, not to mention her, a woman who had been involved in numerous trending topics by Aleah.

It would be an explosion.

Just thinking about it made her worried.

She had to escape from his clutches first to prevent that from happening. Seeing that he didn't respond at all, she reminded him politely.

"Mr. Trevino, can you please show some mercy?"

"Mr. Trevino?"

Draven lowered his eyes, gritted his teeth, and repeated the address.

Cierra hummed, but just as she was about to speak, she heard a sneer above her head.

Then, he tightened his grip on the back of her neck and pulled her closer, her back pressing against

his chest.

"Hmm..."

Cierra struggled to leave. Regardless of the pain in her neck, she pushed Draven's arm away.

As she moved, she heard a crisp sound, followed by a numbness in the back of her hand. She didn't know if she had slapped his face or somewhere else.

She only knew that her neck was in pain. She sta**ered two steps and was supported by someone.

"Are you all right?"

The voice was full of worry. It was William.

"I'm fine. I was just frightened."

Cierra shook her head and glared at Draven with her hands on her neck.

She looked away and saw two broken roses. It was a pity. "My flowers."

When Draven saw her like this, he felt even more annoyed.

When he saw her crying in the car, she was coaxed by the man. It was even more dazzling when she threw herself into the man's arms.

"Cierra, is this the partner you're talking about? Is this what you mean by had nothing with each other?"
