Chapter 243 Love Breeds Hatred
“Gavyn, I’ve been missing you so much, but you never come to see me.”
Upon hearing Gavyn’s cold and rigid tone, Laila’s voice immediately became tearful, sounding both
resentful and pleading. “You have no idea what I’ve been going through at work these days. Since I’m
new, they make me do all the exhausting tasks, and they even… they even humiliate me…”
She had already expressed herself in a very subtle and tactful manner. However, she had been cursing
and swearing all along in her heart.
Laila was assigned to the administrative department, supposedly to do clerical work. However,
everyone in the company knew that Laila had betrayed Gavyn. People felt it was unfair to Gavyn and
no one respected Laila, seeing her as a fickle woman who was always trying to climb the social ladder.
So, every time there was a difficult task, the supervisor would assign it to her while mocking her,
“You’re just someone who doesn’t know better! Just look at what you’re made of! Ew! Shameless!”
Wherever Laila went, there were always malicious glances and whispered conversations. These felt
like needle pricks, making her feel as if there was a fishbone stuck in her throat.
With a crowd of people around, Laila couldn’t even catch a glimpse of Gavyn as
she was not working in Gavyn’s building. Without anyone to back her up, her
arrogance naturally faded away.
However, she held herself back and tried calling Gavyn countless times, but it
was Lloyd who answered every time.
Lloyd always had the same serious words. “It’s inevitable to interact with
colleagues at work. If you, Ms. Marsh, do not wish to continue working, please go to the HR
department to resign on your own.”
After that then, the call was hung up.
Laila felt exhausted every day.
That day, she couldn’t bear it any longer and bought a new SIM card to call Gavyn again. She hoped
that Gavyn would stand up for her. She believed that he still had feelings for her. It was just that Gavyn
hadn’t noticed them yet.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtGavyn was already quite upset due to Aylin’s rejection, and hearing Laila’s voice only made him feel
more irritated.
Ever since the wedding fiasco, his trust in Laila had hit rock bottom.
If it weren’t for Laila threatening her own life and using it as leverage, Gavyn would never have allowed
her to enter the company.
He no longer wanted to see her, not even willing to listen to her voice. That’s
why he had specifically set up call forwarding for Laila’s phone number, leaving everything to Lloyd to
handle. It was better for him not to deal with her at all.
Who would have thought that Laila would be so persistent, even going so far as to change her number
to keep bothering Gavyn endlessly?
“If there are any issues, talk to Lloyd,” Gavyn said coldly.
To Laila’s surprise, after spending half a day buying a new SIM card, all she got from Gavyn was a
casual “Go find Lloyd.”
Does Gavyn not love me at all anymore?
Laila’s heart ached unbearably, and she could no longer hold back her choked sobs.
“Gavyn… I know, I deceived you, and you blame me in your heart.”
Laila cried pitifully and in an unwilling manner. “But Aylin lied to you too! She’s clearly the daughter of
the Koch family, and you two have been married for three years. She’s been hiding it from you, treating
you like a fool! Isn’t this deception as well? Who knows what her intentions were when she
pretended to be pitiful and married into the Delacruz family? Have you ever thought about that?”
Even Lloyd couldn’t stand to hear this anymore. If it weren’t for Gavyn being there, he really wanted to
go over and yell, “Have you have no shame? Seriously!”
Laila couldn’t stop crying, her pitiful voice filled with a sense of injustice. “I’ve sincerely repented for my
mistakes. Why is it that you’re so indifferent to my suffering, yet you can forgive her? Why?
She’s been involved with quite a few men before she met you!”
Laila had noticed a significant change in Aylin earlier on and had been harboring some doubts. Later,
when she encountered Aylin at a branded store. and saw her pull out the highest-level gold card, her
suspicions reached its peak.
Even if a country bumpkin managed to hook up with a man by selling herself, she wouldn’t be able to
obtain this kind of VIP card that required accumulation
in such a short time!
Laila asked Helen to investigate, and to their surprise, they were shocked by what they discovered.
Aylin was far from being a simple village girl; she was actually the daughter of the Koch family and the
CEO of the Koch Group! No wonder she was so confident and bold!
After finding out, Laila felt even more resentful. What is there for Aylin to be so arrogant about? Isn’t it
just that she was born into a good family? I could have had them too after becoming Mrs. Delacruz!
“Enough!”
Suddenly, a deep male voice rang out, pulling Laila’s thoughts back to the present.
Gavyn’s already imposing voice became even more so at this moment. “Don’t try to twist the facts!
What you two did is completely different!”
Laila had secretly found another man, while Aylin had genuinely lost her memory, forgetting her own
identity.
These two incidents could not be compared.
Gavyn now felt nothing but disgust for Laila. Even to this day, she showed no remorse and still tried to
tarnish Aylin’s reputation. It was simply unforgivable!
Laila was dumbfounded by the scolding and suddenly burst into tears. “You’ve changed, Gavyn. You
weren’t like this before. You said I saved you, and you’d be good to me. How could you become so
heartless now…”
In the face of her accusations, Gavyn remained indifferent and unmoved.
“Laila, it’s not me who’s changed, but your heart. I’ll say it one last time, I know exactly who Aylin is, so
you better not let me hear you slander her again.”
Gavyn’s face turned hostile and his voice was stern. “If it weren’t for the kindness you showed me in
the past, your deceitful actions towards me and the entire Delacruz family would have already gotten
you kicked out from New York, let alone having the job you have now!”
Upon hearing this, Laila was completely stunned.
She never expected that Gavyn would protect Aylin so fiercely!
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIn just a week that I couldn’t be by Gavyn’s side, had that despicable woman managed to capture
Gavyn’s heart once again?
Upon thinking of this, Laila felt a deep sense of frustration and annoyance.
However, she must hold back in front of Gawn After a moment of silence, Laila’s voice trembled as she
put aside all her complaints, leaving only sadness in her words. Her voice was gentle as she said, “I’m
sorry, I was too emotional just now. I admit to all the mistakes I’ve made in the past. But all of that was
because I love you too much. I don’t ask for anything else. I just want to be by your side and see you
from time to time.
Gavyn, all I want is to be by your side, nothing more…”
Laila had stooped to a low level. According to Helen Marsh, a man’s pity and sympathy were enough to
help a woman stand on her own two feet.
At this moment, Gavyn only showed indifference towards her, not even a trace of restrained hatred
could be found.
Indeed, love could become hatred in the end, for it was etched deep in one’s heart. Due to it, one’s
involvement in the other’s lives would be entwined and never-ending. As for Gavyn, all that remained
for her was indifference and a reluctance to speak more.
“If you need anything, contact Lloyd. Don’t call me again. Take care of yourself.”
The last words of “take care of yourself” was the last bit of dignity he left for his lifesaver.
After finishing speaking, Gavyn quickly hung up the phone, ignoring Laila’s miserable cries on the other
end. He then blocked and deleted her contact, all in one swift motion.
Having done all this, Gavyn pressed his temples, feeling even more flustered than before.
It was because Laila mentioned the past.
Thus, Gavyn couldn’t help but reminisce about the times when he was blinded by Laila. He had almost
ignored Aylin completely, causing her to suffer many grievances.
At that time, Aylin had no memories and no relatives to confide in.
How did she manage to get through it?
He couldn’t help but think back to that morning.
He held her in his arms, feeling her slender frame beneath his fingertips, without an ounce of excess
flesh.
She’s such a petite person, with such delicate shoulders. However, I had never helped her. How did
she manage to deal with those hostile stares and mockery in the dead of night?
