Unveiling the Genius Behind the Divorcee by Lily Foster

He didn’t sleep well last night and dreamed intermittently all night long. Not only that, but Aylin was the

star of the dream as well.

He tried hard not to think about it, but when he closed his eyes, his mind was full of the image of how

Aylin was smiling beautifully and brightly at another man, but toward himself, she was distant and cold.

Gavyn’s phone rang again, and it was Steve. With that, Gavyn pressed his temples while he answered

the call.

“Grandpa.”

“How is it? What kind of gift did you get Aylin? Did she like it?” Steve’s voice, which was full of

expectation, came from the other end.

Gavyn could only be silent, not knowing how to answer.

Gavyn couldn’t tell Steve that he saw some other man giving Aylin the same gift he was about to give

her when he went to her house, and Steve was still nagging.

“Don’t worry. Aylin must be happy. She just didn’t show it. You need to take your time to coax a woman

and don’t put on airs this time. When you have the chance, ask her out for dinner and take her for a

walk. You both need to get along more so that you both can bond. Do you understand?”

However, it wasn’t that Gavyn didn’t want to get along with Aylin. It was the other way around instead.

Gavyn’s headache intensified at the thought of how differently she treated the Koch family compared to

him. “I got it. Don’t worry.”

The old man then said a few more words before hanging up the phone with satisfaction.

Gavyn’s bad mood was now made worse by the phone call, and he repeatedly remembered the

embarrassment of being stopped outside the door when he tried to give her the gift.

He also didn’t have enough sleep and was dizzy, and he even had to force himself to review the new

project for this quarter.

After the third cup of coffee, Lloyd hesitated for a moment with the cup in his hand.

“Mr. Delacruz, you’ve drank too much coffee today…”

After all, it contained caffeine. How can he drink it like it’s water?

“Just put it down.” Gavyn frowned slightly and focused on the report in front of him, and Lloyd could

only sigh softly.

Gavyn didn’t look well, and it was obvious that he didn’t have a good sleep. He must have encountered

something unpleasant when he went to the Koch’s home yesterday, and it made him upset.

As a close subordinate, it was a lie to say that Lloyd didn’t feel distressed. Gavyn was usually vigorous

and resolute, but this was the first time that he had seen Gavyn so sad and distressed.

Lloyd opened his mouth and was planning to comfort him.

Why force it since things already happened? You didn’t feel fated when you were together, and now

you’re trying so hard to get her back after the divorce. Why bother?

However, Lloyd didn’t dare to speak a word.

Until he got off work, Lloyd was still worried that Gavyn would tire himself out working overtime and

was wondering if he should persuade Gavyn to leave as well, but he then saw Gavyn leaving the office

on time.

I think he’s going back home to rest, right?

Unbeknownst to him, Gavyn had gone to a bar instead of going home, and this time, he didn’t even call

Waylon.

After drinking the alcohol one glass after another, Gavyn started to feel a slight burning sensation in his

throat, but he didn’t care. He was drinking the alcohol as if it was water.

The dance floor was just below, where the crowd gathered and mingled with each other. It was

supposed to be a good atmosphere to drink, but Gavyn only felt noisy.

Drinking too much was bad for health, but he wasn’t an addict.

Get Boo

However, at this time, he needed the alcohol to numb his nerves and thoughts because he was afraid

that if he was sober, he would look for that figure in his mind, and he couldn’t help it.

Gavyn’s phone vibrated a while later, causing him to frown as he glanced at it.

“Gavyn, how have you been lately? I miss you a lot. Can I invite you to have dinner together on my

birthday next week? I didn’t dare to bother you lately, and it was my fault last time. I shouldn’t have said

that, and I won’t do it again. Please, can you give me a chance to see you, Gavyn? You won’t be so

cruel as to never see me again, right?”

The woman was pleading, but in fact, it was moral coercion, and the grief in her voice was clearly

evident.

Gavyn immediately turned off his phone.

Birthdays again!

That word directly pulled Gavyn back into the vortex with Aylin as he slammed his fist on the table,

trying to relieve his inner irritability with the pain.

However, it was of no use, so Gavyn could only drink to calm his nerves.

With his outstanding aura, Gavyn stood out in the noisy environment. He was drinking at this moment,

and his jawline looked exquisite when he raised the glass to down the drink. That eyes of his were as

dark as night, and the masculinity he was oozing was enough to attract many admirers.

At this time, a woman in a red dress was then seen walking over slowly as she said in a gentle voice,

“Sir, why are you drinking alone here?”

However, the passersby that passed by exclaimed in a low voice, “I-Isn’t that Samantha Burne?”

“It is! I think it’s her. I love her songs so much, especially the one where she won second on the Gold

Record.”

Samantha calmly accepted their gazes, tucked her hair behind her ear, and winked at them as a tacit

admission of her identity.

Unexpectedly, the two passers-by were introverts. They had mixed emotions. and dared not approach

her when they saw the beautiful woman winking at them, so they ran away screaming.

Samantha just shook her head and laughed. “These fans are really…”

After that, she glanced sideways, but the man was still indifferent.

To be precise, Gavyn hadn’t even spar her a glance ever since she came over, and none of the men

she liked had ever been this indifferent before in the past:

However, Samantha’s interest was even more piqued by that as she sat down on the couch with her

skirt tucked into her lap, looking graceful.

Seeing that Gavyn had almost finished his drink, she took the empty glass and filled it for him.

“So you like Brandy? This is brewed for at least three years based on the color.

It seems that you can drink a lot.”

After saying that, the woman gently passed the glass back and continued, “But you can’t just rely on

alcohol when you have troubles. Why don’t you tell me your problems.”

Only then did Gavyn look at the woman.

Gavyn was annoyed since he was disturbed, but the moment her face came into view, he was stunned
