Divorce Me I'm Done Serving You (Ayla and Troy) novel Chapter 724

"I saw you jump off the cruise ship with my own eyes and rescue Ayla," Draven said. His tone remained calm. "You always use that moment to glorify yourself, but the truth is that even without you, I would have been there. You were just a few minutes faster than me."

Troy refused to believe any of it. "Bullshit. That's not what happened at all..."

Draven cut him off. "Ayla liked you for only one reason. You were always a little luckier than me. Without that luck, you would never have had the chance to get close to her. From the very beginning, the person standing beside Ayla should have been me. So nothing about her was ever naturally yours, Troy. Stop lying to yourself."

Each word carried a quiet but crushing pressure. "From this moment on, your luck has run out. The children and Ayla, I'm taking them both. I'll use every method I have. Because neither the children nor Ayla are something you deserve."

After Draven said that, he had no patience to hear whatever Troy might say next. He ended the call immediately. Then he gave Herman a few instructions and made two more phone calls.

After finishing everything, Draven finally ate his meal in the study.

When he finished eating, he went to check on the babies.

Draven hoped Ayla could live as carefree as Floyd and Esme. But people always grew up, and with growing up came troubles. He wasn't afraid of Ayla encountering problems. What bothered him was when the problems exceeded what she could handle, forcing her into such a helpless position.

What he needed to do was clear away the trouble that refused to go away.

...

After finishing her meal, Ayla took advantage of the moment when she still felt relatively well. She confirmed the final experimental data from this trip with her assistant, then called Halle to talk about both work and life.

"I'm at Draven's place right now," Ayla said. After eating, she had come outside alone to walk around. The place was incredibly large. Even just taking a walk could lead her onto a quiet mountain road where no one would disturb her. She looked at the beautiful flowers, plants, and trees around her. "I got sick, so I might have to stay here for a few days."

"What happened to you?"

"Just a small cold."

"That's good. But why are you at Draven's place?"

"It's a long story..."

"Wait. Did you and Draven get back together?"

"No."

"Then why are you two together?"
