Divorce me I'm done serving you (Ayla) novel Chapter 921

Blake directly told Herman to get lost.

Herman was even more secretly bold than she had imagined!

Blake was very principled and wouldn't agree. On top of that, even kissing in the office was rare. She wouldn't let Herman mess around so easily.

Herman also always knew when to stop.

He was in a great mood lately. When James came to check on him, he even felt like chatting with him.

"So, did you win her over?" James asked.

"You guess," Herman replied.

James was speechless. "Why do I have to guess? Just tell me. What's so secret about dating? I really don't get you."

Herman got a little embarrassed after being mocked by his best friend like that. "Fine. Then set up a gathering."

James raised a brow. "Oh? So you're bringing her?"

"If I don't bring her, you'll just keep making fun of me," Herman said.

James was quick to act. He quickly set up a get-together with a group of close friends. People he wasn't close with weren't invited.

This time, everyone had already arrived when Herman finally showed up late, with Blake following behind him.

Both Herman and Blake were very private people who didn't show their feelings in public. James only knew about them because he was bored and observant. The others had no idea at all.

So when everyone saw Blake—who had never made room for any man in her life—suddenly walking in while holding Herman's arm, their jaws almost hit the floor.

Ayla had once worked under Blake, so she knew Blake's personality very well.

She couldn't even imagine Blake dating anyone, let alone being with someone like Herman.

She was shocked, but also happy for them.

After all, this was a good thing. Everyone was truly happy for them!

The only one who got hurt again was Will.

"No way... you two... when did you even get together?"

Will kept looking back and forth between them, his face full of disbelief.

He had always thought Herman and Blake would stay single with him. Now they had secretly gotten together, leaving him behind and making him stand out even more.

In the future, when they all hung out together, everyone else would be in couples—only he would be alone. That was just too, too miserable!

Just the thought of Herman having a woman made Melody lose it completely. She couldn't accept it. She worried that Herman would care less about her in the future, that his woman would take all his time and attention.

What used to belong entirely to her was being divided up, and in the end, she was left alone in the same place.

A huge wave of anxiety and fear hit Melody. She broke down. This time, there was no act, no pretending. Her mental defenses completely collapsed, and her anxiety reached an extreme point.

In the end, it was Blake who comforted her. "You should be worried about whether your brother will get dumped by me instead."

Blake had built everything she had on her own, so she knew her worth. She deserved the best.

Meeting Herman in her life was also something she deserved.

Not because Blake was lucky to have him.

And even if Herman left, Blake would only think he simply wasn't good enough for her. She would meet someone even better in the future.

Melody froze.

Blake said, "Stop focusing on other people. Focus on yourself. Love yourself. You're falling apart like this because you have no self-respect. Learn to value yourself, and you'll slowly get better."

This was the first time Melody had ever heard someone say she had no self-respect. She was completely stunned. After a long moment, she suddenly broke down in tears.

Her whole life, she had been chasing after other people. In the past, all her attention had been on Draven, far more than on herself.
