Chapter 43 Draven Throws Cierra’s Clothes Away
Cierra was deliberately obtuse. “What are you talking about? I don’t remember.”
“You asked
“Will you?”
Before Draven finished his words, Cierra interrupted him.
She stopped at the steps leading into the villa and turned to look at Draven.
Cierra had gone up one step, so she could look into Draven’s eyes.
“Of course not.”
Draven frowned. Although he did not know why Cierra asked that, he answered her.
“Well, it’s settled. Why did you ask that?” Cierra shrugged.
She turned again and took off her high heels. She stepped on the ground barefoot, looking tired.
Draven’s frown deepened when he realized Cierra had changed the topic.
Draven wanted to ask Cierra why she asked that question. On the contrary, she asked him for an answer.
”
Draven went up to Cierra and said, “I don’t know what you have experienced and why you asked me such a question. Cierra, life and death are not trifles. I can’t escape punishment if I kill someone or break the law. Even if I can, I will not do that to you.”
How could the company’s secret compare with Cierra’s life?
Cierra suddenly stopped.
She did not turn around but remained silent on the spot. Then, she forced a smile.
“I have experienced nothing special. Life and death are not trifles. Therefore, I will live well.”
Cierra said that to Draven as well as to herself.
She walked slowly and mounted the steps.
From then on, she could call it even.
Draven did not disturb Cierra and followed her quietly, watching her walk slowly like a child.
Ernest said Cierra liked to hold Draven’s hand when she learned to walk. Draven suddenly remembered that.
Cierra held Draven’s hand first. When she walked steadily, she released his hand. Then, she looked back at him with a smile to ask for praise.
Draven didn’t remember that, but Ernest mentioned that frequently when he was alive. Therefore, Draven had the scene in his
mind.
However, the girl walking in front of Draven did not look back at him.
She went into the villa directly.
“Do you live here recently?”
When Cierra found someone living in the villa, she was surprised.
Draven loosened his tie and threw it onto the sofa. He poured two cups of water and went to Cierra. “I’ve always lived here.”
Hearing that, Cierra froze in place.
Did Draven live there?
If Cierra remembered correctly, the villa was prepared for Draven and her to get married. However, she stayed there for one night and was sent abroad.
Cierra could hardly believe Draven lived there.
The villa would make him unhappy.
“Don’t you want to drink?”
Draven was still holding the cup for Cierra.
Cierra was thirsty. She took over the cup and said, “Thank you.”
The water was warm. It was still warm when it went into Cierra’s stomach, making her feel better.
Cierra didn’t care what Draven was doing and sat on the sofa. She was afraid of staining the sofa, so she put a small blanket below her.
Draven glanced at Cierra and went into the kitchen.
Ten minutes later, a cup of hot coffee was placed in front of Cierra.
