Unveiling the Genius Behind the Divorcee by Lily Foster

Chapter 223 Her Heart Has Long Grown Cold

“Exactly!” Lloyd nodded eagerly.

She was rendered speechless.

No wonder Gavyn’s face looked so terrible just now.

“Ah, Ms. Koch, I’m telling the truth, please think about it,” Lloyd sighed and followed Gavyn’s footsteps as they left.

Aylin stood still, her lips pursed and eyes narrowed, lost in thought about something unknown.

Ryker’s face tightened, and his fingers gradually clenched.

So it turns out that she had suddenly invited him to dinner as a way to thank him for what happened online in the morning. Unfortunately, it wasn’t actually him who had done it.

Aylin has always been kind-hearted and compassionate. Gavyn’s attempt to please her might not necessarily make her change her mind directly, but it could potentially cause her to waver.

“Aylin, I think there’s been a misunderstanding. When you invited me to dinner, I didn’t think much of it. I should have asked for more details,” Ryker interrupted Aylin’s silence.

“Ah, it’s not your concern, I was just mistaken.”

Aylin rubbed her temples to regain focus and pulled out a chair for Ryker with a smile. “Don’t just stand there, sit down. Let’s eat.”

She was speechless about her own performance just now, but what left her even more speechless was Gavyn’s behavior. It was inexplicable and he didn’t bother to explain, yet he still expected others to understand.

Why should everyone try to understand him?

Aylin sat down, a cold smile in her heart.

Over the course of three years, every time she hoped he would appear to protect her, he never showed up. Her hopes had been dashed too many times, and her heart had long since grown cold.

Did she really think she would be moved to tears with gratitude because of this?

“How ridiculous!”

In the end, she ate her meal tastelessly, feeling restless and annoyed.

Ryker deliberately ordered a few dishes that Aylin loved to eat, but seeing her lack enthusiasm, his uneasiness gradually grew.

Aylin couldn’t see it, but as a man, he could clearly tell that Gavyn was slowly starting to care about her, even trying to win her affection.
