Unveiling the Genius Behind the Divorcee novel Chapter 241

Chapter 241 Apologizing for That Night

However, this idea was quickly dismissed by Gavyn.

Aylin was not only a legendary hacker who could compete with him, but also possessed exceptional medical skills in emergency situations, saving Wesley from the brink of death. This was extraordinary, far beyond what an ordinary person could do. If she had also concocted this strange fragrance, that would be too incredible!

One should know that hacking skills had absolutely nothing to do with medicine or perfume making. This was way too interdisciplinary and simply impossible!

Gavyn gently pinched the small sachet, pursed his lips for a moment, and then spoke again.

“If you happen to remember, please let me know as soon as possible.”

“Okay.”

Aylin’s response was completely soulless.

As Daniel watched from the side, he felt a mix of pride and complexity in his heart.

He knew all too well that the sachet was Aylin’s handiwork, especially since she had just asked him to remake it yesterday.

However, as he glanced at the disheartened Gavyn, he realized that Gavyn had disappointed Aylin first. To Gavyn, this minor setback was still considered light: After all, Gavyn was the one who was clueless and overlooked Aylin.

It was hard to say whether it was because of spending too much time with Aylin and Robert, but Daniel found himself somewhat mischievously looking forward to the day when Gavyn would discover the truth. Daniel would love to witness his reaction.

It must be very exciting, right?

Gavyn signed the contract swiftly, his handwriting strong and forceful yet crisp and elegant. Aylin couldn’t help but glance at it several times, ultimately unable to resist complimenting his beautiful penmanship.

It was often said that one’s handwriting reflects their character. Just by looking at these characters, one could tell that they possessed a temperament created from his prominent standing, for it was dignified yet restrained.

Aylin picked up the pen and swiftly signed her name next to the man’s. The approval she had for him dissipated as the final stroke was completed.

Gavyn is indeed an excellent businessman and partner, but that’s all he’ll ever I won’t have any other thoughts about him.

“Here’s to a pleasant collaboration.” Aylin extended her hand first.

Gavyn extended his slender fingers and shook hands with the woman. “Pleasure working with you.”

The gentle touch lingered for a moment before slipping away.

Aylin withdrew her hand and smiled politely, creating a sense of distance.

“It’s getting late, and it’s almost time for lunch. I won’t keep you all here any longer. Daniel, please see them out for me.”

She wants to kick me out that badly?

“Wait a moment.” Gavyn, holding onto the lingering warmth on his fingertips, interrupted Daniel’s motion to stand up and see him off.

Aylin frowned. “Does Mr. Delacruz have something else?”

Gavyn was not really busy; he just felt uneasy in his heart.

Throughout the entire time, Aylin maintained a flawless, polite expression toward him, without a hint of any unnecessary emotions.

Indeed, her action was perfect in the business world, but he couldn’t help but think of those tender, gentle eyes that once held such a delicate and flowing warmth.

“Since it’s already time to eat, I’d like to invite Ms. Koch to join me for lunch.”

Gavyn thought for a while and came up with an excuse.

Have lunch?

Upon hearing this, Aylin pursed her lips. She had never seen him being such a gentleman in her three years of marriage.

“No. I don’t have much of an appetite today.”

If it were the her from the past, she would have been overjoyed and at a loss for words when faced with Gavyn’s friendly gestures. But now, she was unwilling to get entangled unnecessarily with Gavyn.

“You don’t have to eat greasy food. I know a great Japanese restaurant with fresh ingredients and light flavors that you should enjoy,” Gavyn suggested without showing any obvious signs of annoyance. Instead, he offered a solution.

Seeing his sudden serious expression, Aylin couldn’t help but find it amusing.

“Why does Mr. Delacruz insist on me going?”

This was originally a slightly mocking rhetorical question, but unexpectedly, Gavyn answered it quite seriously.

He looked at Aylin, his deep black eyes sincere and serious. “I want to apologize for my behavior last night.”
