It's Too Late To Get A Divorce (Alita and Jaydon) novel Chapter 86

It was Kim!

Alita's heart skipped a beat. Seeing Clement about to leave, she was puzzled. She reached out to stop him. "Clement, where are you going?"

Kim had now approached them. He had been so focused on observing Alita that he only now noticed the young man she was holding, Jaydon, and his fiancée. The combination of these four individuals baffled him.

While he was surprised, Kim turned his attention to Clement, furrowing his brows. "What are you doing here?"

"Hi, Uncle." Clement didn't know how to explain.

"What? Uncle? Is he your uncle?" Alita widened her eyes, instantly feeling overwhelmed. This embarrassment was on a whole new level.

Jaydon stood there, shaking his shoulders with laughter.

"Mr. Andrews, didn't you know? Your nephew is now the young boyfriend of your first love. The world is really small, isn't it?" Jaydon kindly explained their relationship to Kim.

Now, Kim was completely bewildered. Having searched for Alita all over the world for over a year, he thought she had gone abroad to hide herself. Little did he know she was in the same city. What was even more unbelievable was that she was now dating Clement.

"First love? Alita, you were my uncle's first girlfriend? Oh my, what a clichéd plot." Clement was shocked. He wanted to tell Alita that he didn't want to act anymore.

"But, well, yes..." Alita stuttered. If she had known Clement was Kim's nephew, she would never have invited him to play the role.

The man who came with Kim, seeing the situation, tactfully found a place to sit.

Kim forcefully grabbed Alita's arm. "Come with me. I have something to ask you!"

"Kim, stop dragging me!" Alita struggled. Kim was acting insane in front of so many people.

Indeed! He was insane. After waiting so long for her divorce, for her to leave the Lewis family and Jaydon, she suddenly disappeared. Over the past year, he had truly gone mad.

"Hold on." Jaydon frowned displeasedly. "She is my guest today, Mr. Andrews. It's rude to just drag her away like this."

"Guest?" Kim was puzzled. They were a former married couple. What kind of guests were they? Moreover, Jaydon's new wife seemed quite happy. It was all very strange.

Alita explained, "I have opened a planning company, and now Mr. Lewis has invited me to plan his wedding. So, he is my client."

Kim found it somewhat amusing. "He asked you to plan his wedding? And you dare to take the job?"

Jaydon wiped his mouth with a napkin, looking very content.

"I do business with an open mind. There's no issue with money. You have another guest, so go ahead first. It doesn't look good if you keep holding onto me," Alita said, embarrassed.

Kim didn't let go. "Then talk to me first. I can't bear to see you slip away again."

"I can talk to you, but can we do it another day? I can't escape anywhere now that you've found me in this city," Alita said, realizing that she couldn't hide anymore once her location in the city was known.

Kim released her hand, and his tension eased. He glanced around, noticing the people staring at them. He realized he had been too impulsive. When he saw Alita just now, he lost control.

"Sorry. Continue with your meal. I'll find you later." His gaze was filled with determination as he stared at Alita intensely.

"Okay!" Alita nodded, having no other choice.

Kim glanced at Clement. "You're not allowed to run away either. Finish your meal and come home with me. Your mom has been searching for you all over the place." With that, he walked toward the person who came with him.

Clement looked miserable, and Alita found it hard to enjoy her meal.

Jaydon chuckled. "Miss Thompson, you should let your boyfriend go home with his uncle. Otherwise, his mom will spank him."

"Mr. Lewis, the steak is delicious. Please enjoy more." Alita forced a smile, feeling embarrassed.

Jaydon wouldn't miss such a good opportunity for mockery.

He put down his knife and fork, wholeheartedly making fun of her. "How coincidental is it that you dated Kim, and now you're dating his nephew? If you marry his nephew, Kim will become your uncle-in-law. Or maybe if you rekindle with Kim, your little boyfriend should call you aunt-in-law. Haha, it's really interesting."

Evelyn laughed along with Jaydon, though she didn't find it particularly amusing.

Alita slammed her cutlery down. "Mr. Lewis, even if you're my client, you can't mock my private life. If you don't stop, please find someone else to plan your wedding."

"Don't be so touchy. Otherwise, you'll age even faster. By then, others might mistake Little Clement as your grandson." Jaydon, a master at sarcasm, always excelled in such banter.

Alita stared at him, then suddenly smiled, pulling Clement's hand. "Thanks for your concern, Mr. Lewis. Just take care of yourself. No matter how old I look, it won't matter as long as we love each other. Love knows no age or boundaries."

Alita reminded herself not to be angry and took a deep breath. Jaydon's goal was to provoke her, so she had to smile.

"Be careful not to be seen by his uncle. He might flare up. If things go wrong, he might accuse you of abducting a teenager," Jaydon kindly reminded her, his eyes fixed on her hand, emitting a chilly glare.

Alita was about to retract her hand when Clement firmly held onto it. "Alita, I'm already an adult. I like you, and it's my freedom. Mr. Lewis is just jealous. Don't mind him. I love you."

Kim couldn't believe what he was seeing. What was this cheeky kid doing?
