Divorced but Delighted

"Cierra!"

After being shouted at by Cierra, the hostility between Draven's brows grew even more

intense. However, right after he said a word, he was interrupted by Cierra.

"What? William, have you considered the consequences of your actions? This is our home. It's fine if you hit him, but what if you accidentally hit him too hard? Let's take a step back. Draven was willing to be beaten by you and didn't resist. Even if he doesn't look into it, does it mean that you're fine?"

Their aunt would take advantage of it, let alone those old foxes in the business world

outside.

William was standing on the top of the pyramid of the industry. If he was kicked down, many people would be satisfied.

Perhaps Draven wouldn't pursue the matter today, but it was inevitable that word would spread out. What if others used this matter to frame William?

Not to mention that the industry William was in was the easiest to be affected by comments. Even if he was not an artist, what if they attacked his company's artists with

comments?

No one could figure it out.

After being scolded by Cierra, the hostility on William's body slowly dissipated, revealing a guilty conscience.

"But I have already beaten him up now... And I was careful..."

"No matter how careful you are, you shouldn't be so reckless. Besides, can you guarantee that nothing will go wrong?"

Most people who drowned could swim, and most people who had car accidents could

drive.

When she came over just now, she clearly felt that William was punching heavily. At last, William was just venting his anger. How could he say that he was careful? "All right, don't be angry. I'll listen to you and never do it again, okay? Look at your angry face. It's like a balloon being blown up."

Get Bou

After being severely lectured by Cierra, William did not show any impatience. Instead, he lowered his head and coaxed Cierra in a gentle voice.

Cierra was angry because she was worried about William. Once William lowered his

head, Cierra's anger disappeared completely.

However, William insisted on adding the last sentence and made Cierra glare at him.

William immediately raised his hands and pretended to threaten Cierra. "I'm warning you, Cierra. Don't go too far. Don't forget why you invited me here today. You should give me some face." With his movements and expression, coupled with his words, it could absolutely be said

William was using the most cowardly expression to say the most ruthless words.

Unable to contain herself, Cierra burst into laughter.

"That's enough. I don't even want to say that you're my brother!"

"There's nothing we can do about it. The blood relationship can't be broken."

William returned to his usual lazy self.

"Let's go.

You have just consumed so much physical strength. You must be hungry. The dishes in the kitchen are almost ready. Do you want to eat the cake first or do you want to eat it after dinner? Since it is your birthday today, it's up to you."

Cierra's expression relaxed as she discussed the matter casually with William. It was as if the argument just now had never happened.

William was even more casual. "You are the chef, so it's up to you.

"Then let's have dinner first. I'm starving. Let's eat desserts when we are tired of

playing in the afternoon. What do you

think?"

As Cierra suggested, she caught a glimpse of the red mark on the back of William's

hand.

Perhaps it was because William had used too much strength to hit Draven just now, causing him to scratch the ground.

Get Bo

Cierra paused for a moment and asked, "Is your hand all right? Do you want to apply some medicine first?"

William followed her gaze and snorted when seeing the wound.

"It's okay. I am not that delicate, unlike some people who can't get up after being punched twice."

Cierra was speechless.

How could William be so arrogant?

Hearing his tone, Cierra almost rolled her eyes at him.

Jaquan, who was standing at the side, spoke his mind on behalf of Cierra. "William, what Cierra said earlier makes sense. You're being too rash. Although Draven is hateful, beating him up is enough. Don't go too far."

William was coaxing Cierra and even dared to refute her just now. Now Jaquan's reprimand was like a mountain that firmly suppressed William's arrogance.

After all, Jaquan was the one who raised William. If Charle was the biological father of William, then Jaquan could be said to be the educational father of William. William was born in awe of Jaquan, so he immediately lowered his head and behaved

himself.

"Got it, Jaquan. I heard what Cierra said. Otherwise, how could I bow my head and apologize to her?"

"Since you know that what Cierra said makes sense, you shouldn't have any thoughts of

being proud in the future. You're already old, so don't be so childish. Today, it's still a small private matter. If you were so reckless in the business world, you wouldn't even know it when you were tricked." Jaquan's tone was slow. It was not very stern, but it inexplicably gave people a sense of

oppression.

Not to mention William who was being scolded, even Cierra felt her scalp go numb.

Cierra coughed softly and tried to ease the atmosphere. "Well, Jaquan, William was too angry because of me. If he were in the business world, he would definitely think about it carefully."

Get Borth

"Is that so?"

Jaquan stopped in his tracks and glanced around William.

William didn't respond.

Cierra braced herself and said, "Of course. If you don't believe me, you can go to New

brother manages the company. His company has

York another day to see how my brother

reached its current scale and his achievements are not small, right?"

As she spoke, Cierra patted William on the shoulder.

William smiled.

Jaquan's gaze passed through the siblings. "I hope so."

"Well, it's William's birthday today. It's not good to scold him all the time. It's

enough."

Cierra couldn't stand Jaquan's gaze anymore. She went straight over and took Jaquan's

arm, trying to act like a spoiled child to get her generous brother back.

And this move was indeed effective.

When Cierra got close to Jaquan, the pressure disappeared, and he looked at Cierra

gently.

Even William became much more pleasing to the eye. "Since it's William's birthday, I'll listen to Cierra and stop teaching you a lesson. It's getting late. Hurry up and eat. Don't

let the elders wait for us."

William breathed a sigh of relief. "Yes, we can't let the elders wait for us. Today is at tough day for our mother. We should show respect to our great mother!" Jaquan squinted at him.

William left and quickly distance himself from Jaquan.

A smile broke out on Cierra's face as she loosened her grip on Jaquan's arm.

"I'm going to the kitchen. Jaquan, go to the dining room and take care of Wanda first. It's not good to scare her if there are too many strangers."

At the mention of Wanda, the gentleness between Jaquan's eyebrows deepened, and he

said softly, "Okay."

It was time for dinner, and everyone had arrived in the dining hall, but they had not

officially taken their seats yet.

Dr. Charles and Freddy were the oldest and the most distinguished guests, so they were naturally arranged to sit in the main seats.

Charle sat on the right-hand seat, next to his wife, Sarah, and the seat opposite him was reserved for his eldest son, Jaquan.

But before Jaquan could come in, Belle sat down in that seat.

Belle didn't know what day it was today. She just thought that it was to entertain the two old people, so she immediately said in a jealous tone.

"I don't know where the two distinguished guests came from. I usually can't eat such delicious food when I come here. I'm really lucky today."
