Chapter 242 This Heartless Woman
Pick someone up?
As Aylin sashayed away, Gavyn seemed to be jealous. His heart felt pain as it constricted, and his face turned extremely dark and unpleasant to look at.
She had a bright smile for other men, but remained completely indifferent to my apologies and attempts to make amends.
This heartless woman!
Lloyd was speechless.
Originally, Lloyd thought that since Aylin’s attitude had improved, it would
make Gavyn be in a better mood by talking to her. However, after her visit, the atmosphere seemed to have gotten chillier.
Oh! What the heck!
Fearing that he would have to endure this inexplicable anger again once he returned, Lloyd couldn’t help but inwardly curse his luck, his face scrunching up into a tight frown.
Who on earth is coming that Ms. Koch has to pick up at such a bad timing?
Aylin hurried down at the fastest speed she had ever gone, wishing she could fly straight to the airport.
Just as she stepped out of the company’s main entrance, she saw a luxurious
sapphire blue convertible parked by the roadside. Robert got out of the car,
hair gently tousled by the wind.
Aylin excitedly ran over. “Robert, you got here so fast! I was thinking we’d meet at the airport together.”
his
Robert stepped forward to support her, gently helping her tuck her long black hair behind her ear, with a tender and doting tone. “Don’t walk so fast. What if
you sprain your ankle?”
Aylin glanced at her one-inch heels and was speechless.
All right, then.
“I thought I might not get there in time.”
Aylin couldn’t help but feel exasperated by Robert’s indulgence. She held his hand and whispered her complaint, “Why didn’t you tell me earlier that Harry was coming back? You only told me when we were already at the airport, and
we might be late to pick him up! Let’s go to the airport!”
As she spoke, she eagerly tried to pull Robert into the car, her whole body
exuding an air of impatience.
Robert hurriedly held her back. “Don’t panic. Just wait a moment and look at
my phone!”
Robert glanced at his phone screen.
On the screen, in the WhatsApp conversation box, Harry informed Robert that
he would be returning and specifically instructed. (Aylin has been working
hard, so don’t tell her in advance and don’t let her pick me up. Let her have a
good rest.]
Robert replied with a Mona Lisa “OK” emoji.
Upon checking the message timestamp, Aylin realized it was from yesterday.
Aylin, annoyed, punched Robert lightly and stomped her foot, exclaiming,
“Robert! How could you have coordinated with him. It’s rare for him to come
back, so how could you not let me pick him up?”
Robert hurriedly begged for mercy and went to hold Aylin’s hand to help her massage her wrist. “It’s just that Harry asked me to keep it a secret. He wants
to surprise you.”
“Let’s just go home and wait. Come on, come on.” Robert pushed Aylin into the car, and just as he was about to crouch down and get in, he suddenly paused.
Aylin asked with curiosity, “What’s wrong?”
Robert seemed to have remembered something and apologized with a smile, “Aylin, I just remembered that there’s an urgent matter at the racing club. I need to pop there real quick. You go ahead, and I’ll catch up soon.”
Robert’s racing club often held various activities, and as a senior, he had to make an appearance. Aylin already knew about this, so she didn’t give it much thought.
“Then hurry back, I’ll be waiting for you.”
Robert watched as Aylin drove away, a hint of heartache flashing across his
expression.
He didn’t tell Aylin that Harry had come back this time for a special reason, which the silly girl had probably forgotten herself.
We must not forget…
Aylin drove back to the Koch’s home first. Along the way, the sunlight was just right, and a gentle breeze brushed past, making her feel so refreshed that the world seemed much more lovely.
Harry was coming back, which meant that another one of her loved ones was
returning to her side. Aylin’s heart felt sweeter than honey.
In order to get back quickly, Aylin took a shortcut, which was a path rarely
traveled by others.
She had it all planned out. As soon as she got home, she would wash her hands and head to the kitchen to prepare the ingredients. She would wait for Harry to come home and cook him a delicious meal to welcome him and help him settle
Harry loved eating fish, so she wanted to go to the supermarket to pick the
best sea bass.
Aylin was imagining the joyful scene of the family reuniting when Harry
returned. Just then, a long black sedan suddenly rushed towards her!
Aylin narrowed her eyes.
Her body reacted a step ahead of her brain, frantically turning the steering wheel and slamming on the brakes. The car narrowly avoided a collision with the oncoming sedan!
The vehicle on the opposite side also came to a halt. As the car doors opened, several tall men dressed in black emerged.
With an imposing presence and a blank expression, it was clear that they were
there to cause trouble.
Aylin was originally having a joyful day, but now, it was gone.
Her charming face darkened as she looked displeased.
After Aylin left, there was no reason or necessity for Gavyn to stay any longer. Without waiting for Daniel to accompany him, he strode into the elevator and
went downstairs.
By the time he reached the parking lot, Aylin’s car had already driven away.
The tail light of the car flashed by before quickly disappearing at the
intersection.
Lloyd stood nearby. Not daring to breathe, he carefully watched Gavyn’s
expression.
It was as cold as a block of ice.
Gavyn’s gaze was fixed on the empty intersection. His expression was somber as he was lost in thought. Nobody knew what he was thinking, just that he wasn’t pleased.
Lloyd’s Adam’s apple moved for a moment, as he felt that Gavyn would
definitely return in anger. Thus, it would be better for Lloyd to speak now.
“Mr. Delacruz… Should we go after them?”
The man’s eyes were dark and inscrutable. After a moment of silence, he
finally squeezed out a sentence through gritted teeth. “No. Let’s go back to the
company!”
Why should I go out of my way to warm up to her when she’s so cold and
indifferent?
Gavyn was extremely frustrated right now.
However, he couldn’t help but wonder who the man Aylin was going to meet.
Wasn’t she the one who said she didn’t want to eat? Yet, she suddenly wants to

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!...
