Divorce and Freedom: No More Homemaker for Him
Chapter 309 Buying Gifts
Fruched
When the elevator doors closed, Ayla thought about sending Draven a message. She was worried that Kayla might show up while he was away on his business trip.
But then she thought about it again. Kayla hadn’t arrived yet and didn’t even know who she was. So Ayla decided not to send the message. Just then, Sacha grabbed her arm. “Ayla, are you really quitting? Are you really leaving us?” Sacha asked.
Sacha was the best at acting cute. Ayla actually liked her a lot. “We’ll still see each other,” Ayla said gently. “And I still have some time before I leave. Isn’t it better to prepare ahead of time?”
Sacha
7 didn’t want Ayla to go. She kept clinging to her for a long time. Ayla coaxed her for a while, too. In the end, they both went back to work as usual.
Troy looked at the unexpected visitor, Max, with surprise. His expression stayed calm but cold. “I didn’t ask you to come,” Troy said.
“What did I do to offend you? Why do you dislike me so much?” Max raised an eyebrow
“I don’t dislike you. Troy replied. What he really hated was how interested Max seemed in Ayla. Even though Troy knew Max was just curious, it still made him uncomfortable.
Tm here to help you. What bad intentions could I have?” Max said.
Max and Troy had known each other for too long. They could almost read each other’s thoughts.
Troy probably sensed what Max was thinking as well.
But Troy would never imagine that Max might be interested in his ex–wife.
Since Max already knew how Draven felt about Ayla, the best plan was to let Draven an other. That way, Max could create a small opening for himself.
Troy fight each
On the other hand, Troy was Max’s good friend. After Max had been tricked by Draven, Troy wouldn’t hesitate to help him.
“So you’re really keeping your eyes on Herman?” Max asked.
Troy sneered. T’ll dig slowly. I’ll find evidence sooner or later.
Troy’s main goal was to deal with the Winston Group issue. The loss wasn’t huge, but the situation was complicated and took time to clean up.
Now that things were mostly settled, he could head back soon. As for finding evidence against Draven–even if he found some, it might not really hurt Draven. So it wasn’t very meaningful.
Still, Troy couldn’t swallow his anger. Draven had set him up, and Troy was furious about it. He wanted to report Draven to Martin. At least Martin should know that Draven was no better than he was

can’t even handle something this small.”
Edgar was capable, but in Max’s eyes, he wasn’t impressive.
Troy frowned and said coldly, “He has kids.”
“Alright, Max said, momentarily speechless.
Edgar wasn’t that useless. Draven’s methoils were hard for most people to deal with.

Max continued. “You keep an eye on Herman. I’ll have my people investigate, too. Since I came all this way. I should help.
Troy neither agreed nor refused.
Max then noticed a shopping bag beside the desk and opened it out of curiosity,
Inside was a bracelet.
Max knew Skyla liked things like this. Without thinking, he knew Troy bought it for her. He frowned slightly, feeling annoyed.
Since Troy’s attitude toward Ayla had changed–and he even seemed to want her back–he should be treating Ayla well. Yet he was still buying gifts for Skyla.
Max pretended not to know. “Who’s that for?”
Troy only noticed it then. He looked at the bracelet and remembered.
“I had my secretary buy it.”
“For who?” Max asked.
“Skyla, Troy replied, sounding a bit annoyed.
“You only bought one?” Max said. “That’s cold. What about Bria? No wonder she keeps fighting with

If
He wanted to ask if Troy had bought anything for Ayla. But if he asked, Troy would definitely become suspicious
Max didn’t come here to make Troy doubt him, so he stayed quiet.
Just then. Isabella walked in. She glanced at Max and then at Troy. Troy signaled her to speak. “Mr. Winston. this is about Ayla…
“Okay, tell me later. Troy interrupted.
Max became curious. “What kind of thing can’t I know?”

“Stop being nosy, Troy said.
Max shrugged and pretended not to care anymore.

After Troy walked aside, Isabella followed him. “I heard from Laura that Ayla once visited an art museum.” Isabella said. “She might like painting.”
“Painting?” Troy frowned in surprise.
He thought of Ayla’s calm and distant nature. She seemed like a science student, and her major was in science too. He couldn’t believe she had anything to do with art. Compared to painting, something like racing fit Ayla’s personality much better.
