Chapter 170: Chapter 171

Unveiling the Genius Behind the Divorcee Chapter 171 Chapter 171 Do Not Look Too Upset Aylin was just about to say something when she suddenly heard the roar of a car engine. She turned her head to look at the rearview mirror outside the car and immediately sat up straight!

The two luxury cars were about to collide!

Aylin’s reaction was almost instinctive.

“Ryker, buckle up!”

Immediately, she firmly gripped the steering wheel, stepped on the accelerator, and smoothly engaged the clutch all in one fluid motion.

Lloyd clasped his hands together and muttered “Lord bless me” countless times, too scared to even open his eyes. Although Ryker didn’t know what was happening, he quickly fastened his seatbelt and held on tightly.

Aylin frantically turned the steering wheel, the car’s body barely grazing past, narrowly avoiding a collision.

The car stirred up a whirlwind of dust, and as the dust clouds slowly dissipated, everything settled back down.

In this showdown, the outcome has been determined – who will emerge victorious and who will be defeated?

Only in the fleeting moment when the cars brushed past each other, she caught a glimpse of Gavyn’s stern profile in the other vehicle.

Aylin couldn’t help but blurt out, “Are you crazy?”

The intense collision and billowing smoke that Lloyd had imagined did not occur.

He opened his eyes, feeling as if he had survived a catastrophe.

Ms. Koch... Did we just dodge that?

Unbelievable!

He took a deep breath and cautiously looked up at Gavyn’s expression.

Gavyn’s face was somber, hidden in the shadows, showing no emotion, making it impossible to tell what he was thinking.

It had been quite some time since Ryker had witnessed such an exhilarating scene. He sat nearby, holding his breath, and it took him a while to regain his composure, his heart still racing.

“Gavyn actually wanted to hit you; has he gone mad?”

Even though he didn’t like Gavyn, Ryker had naturally heard about the reputation of the Delacruz Group’s CEO for being calm, rational, and always thinking ahead.

I’ve never seen someone acting as insanely as they are today.

If those two cars had collided just now, the consequences would have been unimaginable!

Upon thinking of this, Ryker hurriedly unbuckled his seatbelt and leaned in to check on Aylin from head to toe. “Aylin, are you alright?”

Aylin closed her eyes and rubbed her brow, “I’m fine, it’s just that I can’t stand that annoying and persistent person... never mind.”

Seeing her exhausted, Ryker couldn’t help but feel distressed. He quickly opened a bottle of mineral. water and handed it to her.

“Thank goodness you reacted quickly. I was completely stunned. Have a sip of water to calm yourself down.”

Aylin took a sip of water to moisten her throat, “I’m sorry, it seems the car body got scratched. I need to go get it fixed.”

“What’s this?”

Ryker didn’t care at all, “You are the most important thing. It doesn’t matter if the car breaks down and gets thrown away, as long as you’re okay.”

Aylin felt his concern and responded with a faint smile.

Unable to suppress the doubts in his heart any longer, and feeling that there was no need to avoid the topic with Aylin, Ryker asked directly, “Aylin, have you noticed that Gavyn has been acting strange lately? It’s as if he’s become a completely different person.

Before, I’ve never heard of him doing something so impulsive. He couldn’t have suddenly gone mad, could he?”

Aylin fell silent.

She wasn’t without doubts; she just didn’t know how to explain them.

After the divorce, she found it increasingly difficult to understand Gavyn. She couldn’t help but wonder if she had had a mental lapse before, to have chosen such a man.

It’s like having a split personality.

For three years, Gavyn never even glanced at her. But now that she’s chosen to leave, he suddenly seems to be acting jealous.

Jealousy...

Aylin paused for a moment, a trace of inexplicable emotion flashed through her heart.

Could it be that Gavyn is really jealous?

The idea had just surfaced, but Aylin immediately dismissed it. It was impossible. Gavyn was attracted to Laila, a pretentious woman. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have tolerated her deception and betrayal, even when Steve was on the verge of getting very angry, he still couldn’t let go.

Aylin scoffed, unwilling to think more about it. “I think he’s gone mad, there’s something wrong with his brain. He should go see a neurologist.”

Ryker chuckled, “Yeah, everyone says that the CEO of the Delacruz Group is so rational and cunning. I think he’s just a madman.”

Although he wore a smile on his face, the moment he lowered his head, the man’s eyes suddenly seemed to be covered with a thin layer of ice, chilling to the core and filled with hostility.

As both men, Ryker may not know the specific reason, but he could sense something was off from Gavyn’s every word and action.

He was becoming more and more concerned about Aylin.

Were you trying to belittle the person he cherished during their wedding, and now you want to deceive her feelings?

He would never allow such a situation to happen again.

He will definitely never lose Aylin again!

In a corner hidden from Aylin’s view, Ryker’s hand quietly clenched into a fist.

“Let’s not talk about him anymore, Aylin. Let’s talk about something cheerful.”

Ryker quickly adjusted his mood and spoke gently, “The Yves Saint Laurent brand I endorse is hosting a comprehensive exhibition banquet at the Star Royale Hotel in a few days. Many companies and bosses will attend, and it should be quite interesting. Aylin, would you like to come?”

Aylin gazed into Ryker’s sparkling eyes, filled with anticipation, and carefully considered her thoughts.

She has been busy with company affairs recently and indeed hasn’t attended any social gatherings. for quite some time.

Considering both the need to relax and unwind, as well as the importance of networking, it’s definitely worth going.

“Sure, when should we schedule it?”

Upon seeing the opportunity, Ryker’s smile grew exceptionally bright. “The time is set for tonight at seven-thirty, Aylin. I’ll pick you up then.”

Aylin nodded, “Alright.”

“Alright, it’s a deal then, no backing out! You have to come visit me!” Ryker exclaimed excitedly, like a child who had just received a reward. “I’ll drive you home first, Aylin. We’ll see each other again tonight.”

“Alright.”

Compared to Ryker’s overwhelming joy, Gavyn’s face on the other side couldn’t look more displeased.

Throughout the journey, Lloyd didn’t dare to speak. He just sat in the back seat, trying his best to minimize his presence, fearing that Gavyn would vent his anger on him.

Fortunately, Gavyn, with a big handprint on his face, became the laughingstock of the entire company and drove back to the Delacruz’s home.

As evening approached, Lloyd knocked on the door of the study.

“Mr. Delacruz, Yves Saint Laurent is hosting a grand exhibition dinner tonight, and they’ve sent you an invitation. Would you like me to accept or decline on your behalf?

I heard that Ms. Koch might be going too.”
