Divorce me I'm done serving you (Ayla) novel Chapter 118

Chapter 118 Shifting Power

Chapter 118 Shifting Power

A smile tugged at Alya’s lips. “Mr. Storm, wait for me. I’m coming to drink with you.”

Ayla spun the wheel and smoothly backed the car out of the lot.

Time to drink.

Troy rushed home. What greeeted him was an empty living room.

“Laura!” he roared.

Startled, Laura ran out from the kitchen. When she saw Troy’s dark, terrifying face, she froze.

It was the first time she’d ever seen Troy this angry.

Ayla had really pushed him.”

“Where is she?” he snapped. “Speak!”

“Mrs. Winston came by, took her things, and left,” Laura stammered.

“She didn’t say anything else?”

“She… she did.”

“Tell me!”

Laura was on the verge of tears. “She… she said she won’t be coming back.”

Troy’s face went pale with rage.

The pressure in the room dropped so sharply it was suffocating. Laura had never seen him like this.

“I think she really meant it,” she mumbled, trembling. “I don’t know what’s going on with her.”

Troy clenched his fists.

He didn’t know either.

In the past, even if she left after a fight, she’d be back in a day or two. Always.

This time was different.

Troy didn’t care that deeply about Ayla. But back in the car, the way she had lost control, hitting and biting

him-that had shaken him.

For the first time, he found himself curious about what she was really feeling.

And then, just like that, she got out of the car.

The way she yanked the handbrake and took control of the wheel-smooth, precise, confident.

She clearly knew how to drive well.

He suddenly remembered all those times over the past three years when she’d driven. She was a good driver. He’d just never noticed.

And now, one question after another about Ayla began to surface in his mind.

Laura hadn’t heard him say anything in a while. She looked up. Her heart still heavy from Ayla’s departure, she hesitantly asked, “Mr. Winston, is Mrs. Winston really going to divorce you?”

Troy flinched at the word “divorce”.

He had never taken it seriously.

Ayla had mentioned divorce so many times, but she always came back. He had been absolutely sure of it. She didn’t need coaxing. She always came back on her own. That had been their pattern for the past three

years.

But what if this time she meant it?

The thought hit him like a truck.

For the first time, Troy realized he wasn’t ready for divorce.

His hands clenched at his sides. Joints cracking. The sound sharp in the silence.

He was stunned by his own thoughts.

He wasn’t ready to divorce Ayla?

How ridiculous.

He despised her. He should be thrilled she wanted to leave.

If she could actually walk away, he’d even give her some credit.

Laura didn’t get a reply. Troy simply turned and left. His face showed no emotion, just the usual calm indifference.

But was it real?

He used to be indifferent because he didn’t care.

But now? Now he was angry.

Laura thought about it. She honestly hoped Ayla would come back.

If they didn’t divorce, maybe Troy wouldn’t be so angry.

Then again… Skyla wasn’t so bad either.

Ugh, the affairs of the wealthy. Definitely not something she should get involved in.

Ayla reached the bar Draven had mentioned as fast as she could. She followed the room number and was surprised to run into Bria.

After offending Draven and coughing up ten million dollars as an apology, Bria had fled with Renee to Tayvara for vacation, mostly to avoid him. She had only just returned.

She frequented this bar, but didn’t expect to run into Ayla right after landing.

Ayla wasn’t the type to indulge in fun or luxury. She’d rather hole up in the kitchen cooking, which, frankly, made her kind of dull.

But today, something was different. Her usual distant look had softened, and there was even a flicker of brightness in her eyes.

Which could only mean one thing-Alya was in a good mood.

And if Alya was in a good mood, Bria definitely wasn’t.

“Ayla,” Bria sneered. “If Troy finds out you’re here at a bar hiring male dancers, you’re finished.”

Ayla smiled. Perfect. Time to settle a score. “Planning to tattle to Troy again?”

“You made me pour red wine all over myself. I haven’t forgotten. And I know you’re scared I’ll tell him. Now that I’ve got dirt on you, you think I’m letting you off easy?”

Ayla gave a cold laugh.

Bria’s bullying had always been so bold because Troy never cared enough to stop her.

If Troy had corrected her even once-just one time-like Draven would have, even if not harshly, even just to say she was wrong, Bria wouldn’t be this arrogant.
