Unveiling the Genius Behind the Divorcee by Lily Foster

Chapter 275 Kicked Out of Breath

Gavyn was at a loss for words. Pursing his lips, he silently placed his hand back under the blanket.

Aylin simply poured out all of the doubts she had kept in her heart. “Gavyn, I intended to ask you just now. I know your skills. How could you not be able to beat a few thugs?”

She paused and demanded in a deep voice, “I want to hear the truth.”

“I was a little drunk and distracted, so I didn’t notice that someone was behind me.”

He was indeed drunk, and only he knew how drunk he truly was.

Aylin remembered that he didn’t like to drink very much as he had stomach problems. Gavyn also restrained himself from drinking too much during social events.

“Why are you drinking alone?”

Gavyn looked over quietly with a kind of gaze that implied, “Don’t you know?”

What kind of look was that?

Could it be because of her?

Aylin frowned and her sharp gaze showed a trace of unhappiness. “Be serious. What kind of compensation do you want? Just tell me. Don’t joke around.”

Gavyn seemed to be waiting for her to ask this, and he did not display any embarrassment as if being exposed. He stated frankly, “I’m not short of money. I only need someone to take care of me overnight for now.”

Aylin looked back in surprise, almost suspecting what she had just heard.

He wanted her to stay overnight with him?

Aylin replied decisively, “Impossible.”

Gavyn had already expected her to refuse, so he narrowed his eyes and said,

“Or, you can kiss me and the matter will be over.”

Aylin was totally astounded!

What a horror story!

Aylin looked at Gavyn in disbelief. She now deeply suspected that the injury to Gavyn’s head was not as simple as a concussion.

“I wanted to have a proper conversation with you and you are still talking nonsense. It seems that you have recovered well. Then there is no need for me to stay. Goodbye!” Aylin got up and left.
