Chapter 69 Hesitation Vanessa didn’t expect him to agree so easily and was stunned for a moment at the message. “Mom, how is it?”
Aleah asked anxiously, for fear that she would be disappointed again. After confirming his words, Vanessa heaved a sigh of relief and grinned. “It’s done! He said he would be here soon. Don’t forget what I taught you. Men will fall for such a trick if you pretend to be pitiful.”
Aleah nodded and breathed a sigh of relief in her heart. She lowered her head and showed weakness to her mother. “I see, Mom. I’ll listen to you in the future and never act on my own again.” As long as Draven was willing to see her, there was still hope. She didn’t want to be tortured by that devil again….
Vanessa had no idea what Aleah was thinking. She only felt sorry for the people who had been scolding Aleah on the Internet recently and gently hugged her. “All right, all right, my baby girl. I’ve made you suffer these days. I’ll help you if you want, and I’ll also find a way to avenge you, okay?”. Aleah threw herself into Vanessa’s arms, and her eyes were as fierce as Vanessa’s. “Thank you, Mom.”
Half an hour later, Draven arrived at the Boyle’s villa. He was led into the room by the serv ants and saw Vanessa wiping her tears on the sofa. “Mrs. Boyle.”
Draven didn’t change his expression and stopped beside the sofa. His figure was so tall that no one could ignore it. As if she had just noticed his arrival, Vanessa raised her head in surprise. Wiping away her tears in embarrassment, she said, “Draven, you’re here. Sit down. I’m sorry to have made a fool of myself.”
“No need, Mrs. Boyle. You know why I’m here. Where’s Aleah?” Draven declined and looked around. Vanessa hesitated for a moment and said worriedly, “Aleah… She’s still in the kitchen.”
Draven frowned, compressed his lips, and remained silent for a moment. “Please take me to have a look.”
“Okay!” Vanessa forcibly suppressed the joy on her face, wiped the corners of her eyes with a tissue, and led the way. As she walked, she said earnestly, “I know Aleah is wrong this time. I have scolded and punished her. I took her mobile phone and didn’t let her call you again. It’s so ridiculous. How dare she copy video and post it? What if she posts the belongs to your company next time? It’s my fault that I don’t educate her well!” your
Behind her, Draven didn’t say anything but frowned even more deeply. He was angry with Aleah not only because she copied the surveillance video of Stream Villa, but also because she deliberately exposed the video and guided public opinion. As for whether she would steal the company’s documents or not, he would store them separately, even if she took some unimportant ones, once investigated, he would take legal measures and would not defend her just because she liked him.
Hearing that Vanessa had confiscated Aleah’s phone as punishment, he understood why Aleah hadn’t apologized for so many days. But even so, it could not be denied that Aleah had done something wrong this time. It was the same as what she had done before when she hired someone to humiliate Cierra. She needed to give others an explanation. Just as he was about to speak, he heard Vanessa say, “Aleah has been in a bad condition for the past two days. She refused to take the medicine prescribed by the doctor. I know you’re angry, but after all, you two grew up together. You used to say that you would take good care of her…” As she spoke, she choked with so bs.
Draven also choked, especially when he saw Aleah, who was in a mess in the kitchen.
Aleah’s hair was a little messy, and her clothes were not tidy. Her face and hands were covered with flour and cream. At this moment, she was rubbing the dough on the kitchen table and muttering. Draven’s eyes darkened and he compressed his thin lips tightly when he saw the scene. Vanessa, who was next to him, cried again. “Aleah has been like this for the past two days. She said that she would make you a cake to apologize. I hope you can forgive her. Draven, I had no choice but to call you over…” While Vanessa was crying, Aleah saw Draven.
Aleah was happy at first, and then her flour-covered face showed a look of resignation and fear. She walked over carefully and looked at him. “Draven, are you still angry with me? I’m sorry,!. know I was wrong. I’ll make your favorite cake. Please don’t be angry, okay?” As she spoke, she turned around and went to the oven to take out the cake that had already been made and handed it to him. “I won’t do anything bad again. Please forgive me. It doesn’t matter if you don’t want to marry me. Just let me like you. I won’t make trouble for Cierra anymore. I’m sorry.” Draven looked at the cake in front of him. It was this cake that gave him a little sweetness and comfort when he came out of the dark room with a whip on his body.
It was also from that time on that he began to pay attention to the little girl who was later found by the Boyle family. He was silent for a long time before he accepted the cake. “I’ll get someone to deal with the matters. on the Internet. You don’t have to worry. As for marrying you, I haven’t changed my mind. I’ll finish the divorce procedures as soon as possible. You should listen to Mrs. Boyle and don’t let her worry
anymore.”
Aleah was surprised. “Really? Draven, don’t you like Cierra? You didn’t say that because I’m pitiful, did you?” At the mention of Cierra, Draven hesitated for a moment. The scene of them being trapped in the elevator half an hour ago appeared in his mind.
He remembered the moment when he grabbed Cierra’s hand. “Draven?” Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!
Aleah guessed why Draven was lost in thought, but she could only suppress the anger in her heart. Hearing her calling, Draven came to his senses. He glanced at the cake in his hand and said, “Don’t let your imagination run wild. Of course, I don’t like her.”. Aleah smiled and said, “Then I’m relieved. I’ll apologize to Cierra. I won’t do anything bad to her because of you… Draven frowned and said, “It’s not your fault. It’s me who didn’t handle the relationship well.” “All right. It’s good that the misunderstanding has been resolved. Let’s go out and eat first. It’s not good to stand here.”
At this point, Vanessa knew that Draven had forgiven Aleah, so she interrupted their conversation and changed the topic. It was no good to say more. A man would be rebellious if he was pushed too hard and always asked if he was willing to marry her, not to mention that Draven obviously had that bi tch in his heart. Her baby daughter was still young and ignorant, so she had to remind her. Indeed, Draven didn’t talk much and followed them to the dining room. He acted quickly and arranged the things for Aleah.
Soon, the public relations team of the Trevino Group began to clear her name again. Although the golden PR time had long been missed, money was omnipotent. Cierra learned the news on the Internet when she returned to Aqua Apartment. To her surprise, she also received a call from Vanessa.
