Chapter 156 The Truth He Never Saw

Chapter 156 The Truth He Never Saw

Back then, Troy felt like he had pulled a whole moon out of the ocean.

That moon brought a cool breeze with it, sweeping away his irritation.

After that, he took her to the hospital.

He had saved a life, so his mood that day was surprisingly good.

Troy mocked, “What else could you expect? I’m not the kind of person who would stand there and watch someone die.”

He gave a mocking laugh. “Don’t tell me that’s the reason you fell for me?”

Ayla knew he looked down on her feelings, but she didn’t deny it. “Yeah. I fell for you the moment I saw you.”

Troy fell silent.

“I told you that before. Did you forget?” Ayla almost laughed. Troy had never cared about anything she said.

But since they were already talking about the past and he wasn’t brushing her off for once, Ayla kept going. “You sent me to the hospital that day. Why didn’t you just leave? Why did you wait for me to wake up?”

Troy looked disgusted. “Because you grabbed my hand and wouldn’t let go. I tried to pull away and

couldn’t.”

“So that’s why.” Ayla understood everything now. She glanced at him,

Even when he talked about the past, he acted like he’d been dragged through something filthy. Ayla didn’t feel sad anymore. “I guess it was all in my head.”

Troy pressed his lips together.

“Thanks for telling me the truth,” she said, “Now I can really see things clearly. But you did save my life, and I’ll remember that.”

Troy was about to say he didn’t care.

Ayla said it for him. “I know you don’t. But I’m not as cold as you. It matters to me. That’s enough.”

Troy’s chest tightened, as if something inside him got yanked hard. For a second, he couldn’t breathe. He had this strange feeling-like he had missed something important. Something he shouldn’t have let slip.

But he quickly told himself this reaction was normal. They were about to get divorced. None of his divorced friends were truly calm when it happened.

Even if he didn’t love Ayla, feeling off wasn’t strange.

Troy steadied himself.

He told himself he wouldn’t respond no matter what she said next.

But Ayla didn’t say anything at all. They reached the courthouse.

After parking the car, they got out and stood in line.

And when their turn came, Troy learned that Ayla had come to file for divorce a month ago with the divorce paper. Back then-on that very day-she had already made up her mind to never look back. And at that time, Draven hadn’t even returned yet.

Troy pressed his lips into a thin line.

“Reason for divorce?” the officer asked.

Ayla answered calmly, “Irreconcilable differences.”

The officer looked at Troy.

Troy’s expression was full of impatience. “Just hurry up.”

The officer had no words.

The man was handsome in a sharp, intimidating way. He had that proud look, chin slightly lifted, eyes empty, as if he never felt anything at all.

The woman beside him was cold and quiet, showing neither sadness nor joy. Together, they didn’t look like a couple whose love had fallen apart. They looked like two people who never had any love to begin with still water, completely still.

The officer checked the papers. “Troy Winston and Ayla Keaton?”

Ayla nodded.

Troy didn’t even glance her way.

The officer didn’t bother asking the usual question-are you sure? Normally she would. Sometimes couples came in angry but still cared about each other. But these two? The man was too cold, the woman too done. Honestly, divorce seemed like freedom for both.

She handed them the divorce form. Ayla finished hers quickly.

Troy glanced at her once, then wrote his name.

When the officer collected the form and their marriage certificate, the process was down to the final step- printing their divorce certificate.

It only took a few minutes.

They waited in silence.
