Chapter 167 Gavyn Gets Jealous
An indisputable remark left Laila with no place to hide her embarrassment,
Only now did Laila start to regret her impulsive words. But to actually kneel before Aylin? She’d
rather die!
She stiffened her neck, indignant and furious, “Did I… Did I just say that? Don’t push me too far! You’ve already taken my things, aren’t you satisfied?”
Although Aylin was sitting leisurely enjoying the service, her demeanor was relaxed, yet she appeared much more capable than the pretentious Laila.
It seems that she has already grown accustomed to this kind of top-notch treatment.
Aylin raised her chin slightly, her gaze moving from top to bottom as she looked at Laila. “No matter what you say, it comes from your mouth. Having received 12 years of compulsory education,
should know what honesty is and what it means to keep your word, right?
you
So, you won’t admit it until you see the surveillance camera footage?”
The manager quickly chimed in, “There’s no need to check the surveillance camera, I can vouch for it. I just heard this young lady’s promise from the other side!”
Actually, he was just busy with something else and didn’t hear the conversation between the two
people clearly! But since Aylin is a valued customer of the store, serving her well would make up for not opening the store for a whole month!
The other shop assistants, who could also read the room, stepped forward one after another to
testify. “That’s right, Ms. Marsh. While we were tidying up things over here, we all heard you say that if Ms. Koch could afford the tie, you would kneel down yourself.”
“How could you not know what you’ve said yourself? Why are you acting clueless?”
“Why did you shoot your mouth off if you couldn’t do it at that time? You just want to back out now,
don’t you? But it’s not that easy!”
She was rendered speechless.
Each and every word deeply wounded Laila’s self-esteem!
She really wished she could find a hole to crawl into and escape from this unbearably noisy scene!
Laila felt that she had completely lost face today. If she really had to kneel down to Aylin, she wouldn’t be able to hold her head up high once she stepped out of this door!
But today, if she didn’t apologize, she wouldn’t be able to step down from the stage gracefully. So, she had no choice but to stall for time with her words, “I-I admit that I was wrong just now. I just
wanted that tie, that’s all! I…”
Suddenly, Laila inexplicably paused and began to cry uncontrollably!
“Aylin, I’m truly sorry. I didn’t mean it earlier, I didn’t know you wanted that tie too.”
Laila sniffled, appearing frail and delicate as if she could barely stand against the wind. She leaned on the display shelf, looking unsteady on her feet. “Don’t worry,” she said, “I support and bless your relationship with Mr. Ryker Orozco. I know… I know you don’t love Gavyn, so you had no choice but to be with Ryker while still married. You’re just pursuing true love, that’s all.”
With tears in her eyes, Laila spoke sincerely, “Don’t worry, I won’t tell Gavyn about your affair. Please forgive me and stop targeting me.”
Everyone was astonished!
Could there be another Gavyn in New York? The Gavyn that Laila mentioned could only be Gavyn Delacruz! And who is this Ms. Koch standing before us…
Everyone quietly sized up Aylin. Was this the rumored ill-tempered and feisty bumpkin ex-wife of
Gavyn?
Aylin exuded elegance and grace, clearly a result of her upbringing since childhood. No matter how
you looked at her, she didn’t resemble a country bumpkin at all!
Aylin’s eyebrows furrowed slightly, wondering what kind of act Laila was putting on this time.
Just as Laila was about to kneel down, tears welling up in her eyes, a deep and chilling voice
resounded, piercingly cold to the core.
“Aylin Koch, don’t push your luck too far!”
A familiar voice suddenly rang out, causing Aylin to pause for a moment.
The only one who could call her like this must be only one.
Turning her head, sure enough, Gavyn was staring intently in her direction. As their eyes met, sparks seemed to fly between them.
With a long stride, Gavyn stepped into the store.
The climate was pleasantly warm, and there was no need for air conditioning in the store. However, Gavyn seemed to be like a walking human air conditioner. Wherever he went, the nearby shop
assistants couldn’t help but shiver from the cold!
Her expression was just so icy cold!
Aylin stood up from her chair, and as their gazes met, the atmosphere instantly became tense, like drawn swords and cocked crossbows.
Gavyn was tall and imposing, exuding an air of dominance. However, Aylin was not at all
intimidated by this. Her face turned cold, but she couldn’t help but want to laugh inwardly.
Why did it have to happen now, of all times?
Oh, could it be that they’re trying to protect their first crush by arriving just in time?
Upon noticing the unfavorable situation, Ryker immediately stood by Aylin’s side to protect her, in case Gavyn made any inappropriate moves.
The competition between men is much simpler; a single glance is enough to confirm that the other person is a love rival!
Aylin stood right next to Ryker, her face cold as she confronted Gavyn. “Who are you to accuse me as soon as you arrive? Do I know you?”
Gavyn was rendered speechless.
The man tightly pursed his lips, his face turning pale.
He found her location and hurried over, only to hear the receptionist say that a distinguished guest by the name of Koch was having a date with his lover.
Upon looking, it really is Aylin!
Not only did he cheat within the marriage, but he also shamelessly flirted with his affair partner in public and in the store. Gavyn’s anger instantly shot up three feet high.
He spoke in a deep voice, his unwavering gaze fixed on Aylin, “You’ve changed so much that I can hardly recognize you, Aylin.”
“When did you ever understand me?”
Aylin said indifferently, “Mr. Delacruz is quite busy, isn’t he? Busy with work, busy taking care of his first crush. Besides, we’re already divorced. What does it matter to you what I’m like?”

The readers' comments on the novel: Unveiling The Genius Behind The Divorce
Terrible ending, so she has helped out a model and an actor get started. Her “brothers” are not protecting her, her ex loves her dearly and she loves him but has never bothered to tell him what happened to her with amnesia to clear the air on their marriage that could be fixed the second time around. Readers want the romance and love of the story, not ridiculous violence, manipulation and deception. Make it right, finish the story with a grand wedding and a child of their own....
Come-on, her not knowing anything about herself and he knowing nothing about her, any wealthy man would think that way. Aylin is being totally unfair to Gavyn as it was his mother and sister who were deliberately lying to him and treating her like crap. Make it right!...
Wow, enough… why do you make the heroine out to be a hooker and allow the bixens to look like upstanding women? Shameless. Get the two who actually love each other back together and stop the nonsense. Since when does a mother arrange for her son’s wife, despicable. And rather sickening, obviously Gavyn’s mother is an idiot!...
Relationships based on lies… despicable women.. find the newsreel where Alton was actually the one who saved Gavyn and send it to him. Leila needs to go...
It's been almost a year since the last chapter. Is this story going to be completed?...
