Unveiling The Genius Behind The Divorce novel Chapter 269

Chapter 269 The Blossoming of Affection 

Malcom had not had a chance to speak just now, and now found a moment to speak. With caution, he said, “Perhaps he has come to realize his debt to Ms. Aylin and wants to do something to make amends.” 

Harry’s expression turned colder as he responded, “A piece of embroidered artwork, no matter its value, is insufficient to compensate for even a fraction of the suffering Aylin has endured. Thinking of making amends now? It’s too 

late!” 

“Absolutely right! Who cares about some obscure item he wants to give us? Even if I were to beat him a hundred times, I wouldn’t be satisfied!” Robert’s indignation surged whenever he thought about Aylin’s experiences in the Delacruz family. 

Can money ever heal emotional wounds? What an arrogant fool! 

Aylin carefully stored the scroll back in the box and calmly addressed Malcom, “Scars are not easily healed. Gifts are nothing more than lifeless objects.” 

Suddenly, Aylin froze. 

Her attention was drawn to conspicuous bloodstains on the second box. Her heart skipped a beat as she quickly picked up the small square box. 

In a soft voice, Abby exclaimed, “Oh, there are bloodstains on this box!” 

Upon opening it, she discovered a delicate bracelet crafted from broken diamonds and yellow gemstones, resting quietly on the velvet, awaiting its 

owner 

Aylin was left stunned. 

Robert had long noticed the sparkling bracelet on her wrist, and upon seeing the same bracelet in the box, he couldn’t hide his contempt. “He even went overboard with his gift-giving. I knew this guy wasn’t sincere. Ha…” 

Malcom shook his head, finding the first gift acceptable but deeming the second one unworthy. “I suppose he didn’t put much thought into it.” 

“But… the bracelet Ryker gave me was handmade by himself,” Aylin uttered, leaving everyone taken aback. 

Harry, who was well-versed in endorsing high-end jewelry brands, narrowed 

his eyes and scrutinized the label. With a frown, he remarked, “If I’m not 

mistaken, this belongs to YSL Love’s new spring-summer handmade 

collection. They provide the materials and leave the production to the 

customers.” 

There was one thing he didn’t mention. This DIY material kit was limited to twenty sets worldwide. 

Aylin’s eyebrows furrowed, clearly contemplating something. She couldn’t determine if she felt astonished or pleased, her emotions were complex. 

Did Gavyn specifically take the time to craft this for her? Judging by the meticulous craftsmanship of the chain, it appeared to be a painstaking and time-consuming task. 

Even if he had the time, how could he possess the patience to undertake it personally? 

Abby couldn’t understand the constant innovation in luxury goods, nor did she comprehend the emotional entanglement between Aylin and Gavyn. All she could see was that both bracelets were remarkably similar and looked exquisite. 

“They’re so pretty,” Abby remarked, her curiosity prompting her to poke at one of the bracelets. “These two are almost identical. Aylin, which one do you prefer?” 

Her question hit the mark, causing Robert and Harry to direct their gazes towards Aylin simultaneously. It was evident that they, too, were eager to 

know her answer 

“Children should stay out of adult matters. Go upstairs and do your 

homework,” Aylin retorted, feigning anger as she gently pushed Abby towards 

the stairs. 

Sometimes, not having an answer is, in itself, an answer. 

Robert and Harry exchanged glances, and their gazes suddenly turned cold, 

like a flickering candlelight, dim and obscure. 

Outside, Lloyd anxiously waited. 

These bodyguards from the Koch family displayed an unexpected arrogance. 

He had no idea how Mr. Delacruz was faring at the moment. 

Speak of the devil, and he shall appear. just moments after Lloyd had been murmuring to himself, he witnessed the tall and handsome figure emerging 

through the doorway. 

Lloyd hurriedly approached, “Mr. Delacruz, how did it go?” 

He had been genuinely startled earlier and needed a moment to compose 

himself. Surprisingly, Gavyn, known for his composure and self-assurance, had scaled the wall and slipped in with the agility of a swallow – quick, nimble, 

and effortlessly. 

Lloyd had wanted to follow and mediate the situation but lacked the necessary 

skills, so he remained outside, waiting. 

Gavyn’s expression remained cold, and he maintained his silence. 

He had suppressed his emotions for far too long, and if it weren’t Aylin’s birthday today, he wouldn’t have sought an argument with her. 

He was determined to make her clarify things! 

He had brought a gift specifically to congratulate her, so why did she shut him. 

out while while allowing that Ryker fellow to swagger in? 

Unaware of Gavyn’s displeasure, Lloyd continued to fret over the gift he had prepared. “Do you think Ms. Koch will appreciate the zardozi work? What if she doesn’t understand or like it? It’s such an expensive item, it would be a 

waste of money…” 

“Shut up!” Gavyn abruptly interrupted, cutting off Lloyd’s anxious ramblings. 

The incessant chatter caused Gavyn to furrow his brows, and his stern gaze swept over Lloyd. “No matter the cost, it’s worth giving it to her,” he asserted 

firmly. 

Lloyd awkwardly shut his mouth and complained inwardly, Fine, despite his 

obvious concern, he couldn’t bring himself to utter a sincere word. Such 

protectiveness!
