Divorced but Delighted Chapter 128
Chapter 128 Red-eyed
Hearing this, Cierra paused.
In fact, she was a little reluctant to leave, not because of Draven. Stream Villa was bought for her by Ernest Trevino
and she had chosen it herself. Even though she hadn’t had a chance to live in it for three years, it was different
from other empty houses.
While she was silent, a piece of news popped up on her phone on the edge of the table.
Hashtag: “The marriage between Mr. Barton and the daughter of the Boyle family, Aleah, is around
the corner.”
The photo was of Aleah in an evening gown with Draven in a black suit beside her. They looked like a perfect match.
Cierra didn’t open it. Instead, he swiped the pop-up window and spoke in a cold tone.
“Sell them all.”
She didn’t stay in the private room any longer and got up from the chair.
“There are still some things to do in the kitchen. I’ll have to trouble you with these trivial things. I won’t bother you
here.”
William could tell that she was acting unnaturally.
He put his phone aside and knew what had happened at a glance. He scolded Cierra in his heart.
His words were even harsher. “You are too angry to eat because of Draven. You were quite tough just now. Didn’t
you think about how to spend the money he gave you? Now you can’t stand the news
of his engagement.”
As he spoke, he deliberately clicked on the news and zoomed in on it, throwing it at Cierra.
“Shouldn’t you bless them when they’re together? Cici has just returned for a short time, and she has been
bewitched by that face again. Alright, I won’t talk about you anymore. Come back with me to XR Entertainment this
afternoon. There’s a bunch of men in my company, and they have all kinds of good figures. You can be keen on
others except him.
Cierra was shocked by William’s increasingly outrageous remarks.
She widened her eyes. “William, what nonsense are you talking about?”

William snorted and didn’t say anything. He just squinted at her.
Cierra looked at the food on the table and suddenly felt guilty.
She was the one who asked William to help her, but now she felt uncomfortable when she saw this
picture, so she left him here alone. She really shouldn’t have done that.
“I’m sorry, William.”
She returned to sit opposite William and apologized obediently.
William snorted and filled her bowl with soup. “I has a good temper. If Jaquan were to sit here today, would you be
able to smooth things over with just an apology?”
Cierra lowered her head and apologized in a low voice, but her expression was still cold.
This time, William didn’t say anything.
The man who she had liked for a few years had just divorced her and then publicized the news of his remarriage on
the Internet. Even though she had been men tally prepared for it for a long time, anyone who saw it would feel
disgusted.
Fortunately, Cierra was well-educated. If it were him, he would have pointed at their nose and scolded them. “What
a shameless couple!”
He couldn’t say anything to comfort her. Most of the time, he would tease Cierra. At this moment, he could only
brace himself to pick up some food for Cierra, feeling extremely awkward.
“William.”
Cierra looked at the pile of food in her plate and couldn’t help interrupting him.
“I’m not sad because of the news, so you don’t have to do this.”
It was true that she was in a bad mood when she saw the photo, but on second thought, she knew that the story
should have gone on like this.
She had known since a long time ago that Draven didn’t like her, and his heart was full of Aleah.
But at that time, she was young and always unconvinced.
She was the one who had grown up with him, and he had called her his cutie wife since he was a child. Why did he
change completely because of Aleah’s return?
Fortunately, she was not stubborn. The moment she gave up, she understood that love did not come
in order.
She couldn’t control her love for Draven. How could he control his love for Aleah?
She understood the logic. But when the truth was laid out in front of her, she really accepted that he was going to
marry Aleah, she was still a little touched and puzzled.
She thought, “He has already seen Aleah’s character. Why does he still want to marry her?
“Does he really like her that much?”
However, these thoughts quickly disappeared. She was woken up by William’s scolding.
A smile appeared on Cierra’s face as she picked up a piece of beef for William with the fork.
“William, I did want to avoid this news, but you scolded me just in time. I know what I should do. As for why I
lowered my head, it’s because I feel sorry for what you’ve done to me, not because of
Draven.”
She didn’t deliberately avoid saying Draven and spoke it out loud.
When she looked up again, there was only guilt and gratitude in her eyes.
“William, thank you.”
Her eyes turned red.
“All right. Have a good meal. Look at how thin you are.”

William looked away and lowered his head to bite the food that Cierra had just served him.
“Mhm,” Cierra replied. Seeing William so reserved, she felt both sad and warm in her heart. She picked up her fork
and started eating.
After a few bites, William suddenly shouted, “I almost forgot my business when I was talking
nonsense with you.”
Cierra looked up and asked, “What’s wrong?”
“It’s nothing. Since you want to sell the house in Aqua Apartment, why don’t you sell it to me
directly?” William suggested.
Cierra didn’t ask him what he was going to do with it. She said directly, “If you want it, I’ll transfer
it to you directly. It’s just a little troublesome to transfer twice.”

“As long as you don’t mind.”
William waved his hand. “That won’t do. After all, I’m your brother. How can I accept your house without paying for
it?”
“If Jaquan knew about this, he would skin me alive.”
Cierra didn’t mind. “It doesn’t matter. It’s troublesome to sell it anyway. I might as well give it to you directly.”
Moreover, it wasn’t her money. She didn’t care about Draven’s money at all.
Since William didn’t want to lose face, he was naturally unwilling to accept it.
He smacked his lips and deliberately said, “Oh, I didn’t let you live directly in Aqua Apartment when you came to
New York. It’s already shameful enough to rent a house for you. Now I want to take your house empty-handed. It’s
really shameful.”
“William.”
Cierra couldn’t stand him and glared at him with a red face.
William smiled and said, “I’ll give money to you at the market price. If you’re too embarrassed to ask me for
money, why don’t you invest in two movies with my money? If I make money, I’ll give you dividends. If I don’t make
money, then I just thank you for your support. What do you think?”
Cierra nodded with a smile. “Sure.”
While they were talking and laughing, the news on the Internet slowly fermented as time went on.
It wasn’t just the news that Draven was about to marry Aleah reach the top of the trending searches. The divorce
news of Draven and Cierra also followed closely behind. It even made it to the top of the
list when it was almost time to get off work.
When Aleah saw these two extremely popular terms, a smile finally appeared on her face.
Mrs. Trevino was finally going to be hers.
She raised her hand and touched her forehead. The wound was still slightly stinging, which made her eyes flash
with cruelty.
She thought, “When I really become Mrs. Trevino, I will make everyone who looked down on me apologize.
“I will also make those people pay the price especially Cierra.”
Aleah clicked on the entry about herself and Draven to see how the netizens wished her well.
As soon as she clicked on it, her face became even uglier and even ferocious.
