It's Too Late To Get A Divorce (Alita and Jaydon) novel Chapter 88

Hence, Alita's heart ached, an ache so resistless that even with the best disguise, it was still futile.

She pressed her tongue forcefully against her teeth and pursed her lips tightly, trying to block the sourness and pain surging from the depths of her heart. She didn't do this for him. It was just a pity for the lost time.

Jaydon noticed her restraint. A soft part of him wanted to hold her. But when he thought about how she had hurt him in the past, his heart hardened again.

"Miss Thompson, do you also think it's good? Then let's go see it together another day. Memories of the same place covered by a younger girl, I like that feeling. How about you, do you like it?" He looked at her fixedly, speaking softly. He wanted to hurt her, but he hurt himself first instead.

Both of them felt sorrow in their hearts.

Alita tilted her head back, forcing back the tears from falling, but they still fell.

She smiled, casually wiping them away. "The wind is really strong. Every time this season comes, my eyes always feel uncomfortable. Mr. Lewis, please don't mind. It's because of the weather."

She took a tissue and wiped her eyes, her emotions gradually subsiding during this process. She replied, "You asked if I liked it. I don't know how to answer. Because from a woman's perspective, everyone has been young and will gradually grow old. Of course, no one likes that feeling. Men run after younger girls, so what about the leftover women? But in the end, it's about whether you feel happy."

Jaydon chuckled and said, "Miss Thompson, your words make sense. Did you also express your true feelings?" He lowered his head, brushing off the non-existent dust on his pants. His gaze became lifeless.

Alita didn't deny it. "To some extent, yes. After all, I'm not a young girl anymore. But I have confidence in my future. A woman can live a splendid life relying on herself, not necessarily depending on a man."

With that, she smiled again. "Apologies, I digressed. Let's get back to discussing the wedding. The current situation is that you and Miss Jenner have diverged on the wedding venue. So discuss it and let me know your decision. After you decide, I'll go to the site to take a look."

Jaydon raised his head. "Let's take a look at both places. Only with a comparison can there be a choice."

Alita concealed a sigh. "No problem! However, you'll need to cover the expenses yourself. If we go to the forest, I insist on purchasing insurance first."

"Of course!" Jaydon faintly smiled, his gaze fixed on her eyes, lingering for a long time.

Alita took a sip of her coffee and shifted her gaze. She didn't want ambiguity. She didn't want to care. They had separated, so they should do it cleanly and thoroughly.

In the distance, Evelyn, holding her bag, fluttered over like a butterfly.

The discussion continued from 1 pm to around 2 pm. Alita stood up and left. Evelyn said the environment there was good and wanted to stay longer.

With her bag in hand, Alita walked out of the outdoor café without looking back.

While Jaydon fed Evelyn cake, his gaze followed Alita's departure. In one year, he missed her and hated her, yet she still left so freely.

His heart hurt as Alita gradually went away.

Alita drove far away. Her nerves were still tense. She stopped the car, leaned on the seat, rested for half an hour, and then started the car again. Back at the company, Alita held a meeting.

"Seriously? A wedding in the forest? This princess is too much. We don't have any forests here, and even if we did, it's not easy to find a place that suits her taste."

"Besides, cars can't enter the forest. If the bride walks in, she would be a mess long before reaching the venue."

"Boss, I think we can't agree to this. Can't we negotiate more?"

Alita took a sip of water and said, "Everyone! I've already agreed."

"What?" Everyone in the meeting room exclaimed.

"You guys don't have to worry too much. Although the princess mentioned going to the forest, the prince said the wedding should be in a church," Alita said lightly. Facing the choice between the two locations, she would rather go to the forest.

Wild animals were not scary. What was frightening was overturning and destroying beautiful memories.

Karen folded her hands and murmured, "God bless, let the prince persuade the princess."

"But generally speaking, the prince tends to yield to the princess. I think the possibility of going to the forest is higher," Crystal said with little enthusiasm.

Other team members also expressed their concerns.

Alita clapped her hands. "Regardless of their choice, we must plan this wedding well. I believe that as long as we work together, we can overcome all difficulties. Do you have confidence?"

"Yes!" The team responded weakly.

"Louder! Do you have confidence?" Alita's voice was loud and confident.

Her courage and confidence inspired the young team. They responded with a resounding "Yes!"

"Very good!" Alita smiled satisfactorily. She wouldn't let difficulties stop her and was determined to overcome them.

After the meeting, she returned to her office and worked busily. Time flew by, and it was almost time to leave work.

Stretching lazily, she planned her life after work.
