Chapter 265: Chapter 266

Chapter 266 In My Dream The birthday party went on for the whole day, and at night, the crowd stopped pestering Aylin.

After washing up quickly, she went to bed early.

But for some reason, she didn’t sleep well.

She dreamed again, and in her dream, she saw the mysterious man for the second time.

The man was still patiently and meticulously teaching her hacking skills, and she couldn’t really see the codes jumping on the screen. Just like last time, everything was hazy, as if it was covered in a layer of mist.

Aylin wanted to ask, “Who the hell are you?”

But in her dream, she was just an observer and could only watch from the sidelines, unable to say anything.

The man set a question for her. She watched as she had on a serious expression and was focused on tapping the keyboard. Not long after, the question was solved, and she cheered excitedly.

“I finally beat you for once!”

The mysterious man ruffled her hair affectionately and chuckled. “The student now becomes the teacher. I know you’re the best.”

This time, the man turned his face, but there was only his side profile.

It was a handsome face, even though only his side profile could be seen. He had a high nose bridge and beautiful eyes...

Before she could see him more closely, his face suddenly disappeared from her sight in just a moment.

Aylin reached out to grab something, and the next moment, she was jerked awake.

She woke up, and her mind was still not clear. She sat up from the bed in a daze and rubbed her temples subconsciously. She didn’t calm down for a long time.

She didn’t know if it was a premonition.

After she regained her memory, she always had some inexplicable dreams, and the plot was even continuous, as if it had really happened.

But in the past three years, she had slept well and never had dreams at night. Why is a person I have never met appearing frequently now?

Aylin looked at her palm, and the feeling of holding the mouse seemed to still linger there.

She couldn’t help but think of Robert’s question last time.

That’s right. My hacking skill...

Who taught me that?

The memory chain seemed to be missing a piece, and Aylin was confused but couldn’t find the answer.

Opening the curtains, Aylin decided not to think about it for the time being. After washing up, she went downstairs, leaving only a shadow in her mind.

Seeing Aylin coming down, the butler smiled and said, “Miss, you’re up so early today. It just so happens that Mr. Orozco is looking for you outside.”

“Let him in.”

As soon as the door opened, Ryker walked in hurriedly.

“Aylin!”

Seeing him like an energetic puppy, Aylin couldn’t help but smile lightly. “Why are you looking for me so early?”

Ryker was travel-worn, and his hair was slightly disheveled by the wind. Obviously, he rushed back.

“My schedule was full in the past two days, and I can’t even cancel anything. I flew back from abroad as soon as I finished shooting the commercial today.”

Ryker took out a delicate little red velvet box from his bag and smiled brightly. “I was supposed to give it to you yesterday. Happy birthday.”

He said, “I’m late. Hope you don’t mind.”

Aylin could understand that he was busy with work and led Ryker to the couch.

Ryker looked at her with shining eyes. “Open it. I prepared it specially for you.”

Aylin untied the ribbon, and there was a bracelet made of jewelry lying quietly in the small box. The yellow diamonds inlaid on it were bright and translucent, and it was even rare for the design to be ingenious. It was tied into a small knot at the end and two silver feet chains were hanging down.

Aylin was used to seeing jewelry, so she couldn’t help but praise it.

“What a special design.”

“It’s good to know that you like it!” Ryker’s heart fluttered when he was praised by Aylin. He smiled and said, “Aylin, try it on.”

“Huh, this bracelet can’t be adjusted?”

Aylin thought the process would be a bit difficult, but she didn’t expect the bracelet to be worn smoothly. It was just the size of her wrist.

It was not too wide nor too tight.

“That’s strange. Which brand is it?”

Aylin was a little surprised.

“It’s exclusively handmade by Ryker Orozco, and I specially made it for you.” With a proud smile, Ryker whispered, “This is the only one in the world!”

Aylin smiled.

She had received a lot of gold and jade jewelry, so handmade things were the rarest.

Light poured in from the window slowly, illuminating Ryker’s handsome face, which did not have any flaws on screen.

Looking at each other, Ryker just wanted to keep Aylin’s smile in his heart forever.

However, after looking at it for a moment, Aylin suddenly froze.

Ryker glanced sideways. “What’s wrong, Aylin?”

“I... dreamed of someone last night.” Aylin’s gaze fell on Ryker’s smooth silhouette thoughtfully. “His side profile looks a bit like yours.”

Ryker’s mouth suddenly froze, and he had a hard look on his face.

The black Ferrari quietly stopped in front of the Koch family’s compound, which attracted housekeepers who were passing by the courtyard of the Koch’s house to stop and watch.

The people in the car were even more dazzling than the car.

Gavyn’s eyebrows furrowed deeply. Beside him was an exquisite customized paper bag with an elegant and premium color.

Inside were two square boxes that were neatly packed.

Lloyd could tell that Gavyn was in a complicated mood.

There were countless times when he came to the Koch family. Every time, he was not very happy. He either had a fight with Ms.

Koch or was kicked out.

The Delacruz Group was one of the best in New York, and so was Gavyn. He had always been the one being flattered by everyone. This was the first time he had rushed to congratulate someone.

“Mr. Delacruz, please wait a moment. I’ll go talk to her.”

“Okay.”

With a nod of approval from Gavyn, Lloyd got out of the car. Seeing that there were guests coming, the housekeeper at the entrance smiled and asked, “Hello, have you made an appointment with our lady?”

Lloyd replied with a smile, “I didn’t make an appointment because I was in a hurry. Tell Ms. Koch that the president of the Delacruz Group wants to see her, and she will know.”

The bodyguard next to him originally looked calm. As soon as he heard the words “the Delacruz Group,” his expression changed subtly, and he interrupted before the servant could speak.

“Sorry, the Koch’s house is not open for visitors now.”

The bodyguard’s voice was so cold that Lloyd frowned but still gently explained, “Our president specially sent gifts to Ms. Koch today. Please inform her.”

The bodyguard still had a stern face and said decisively, “Ms. Koch has ordered that no one is to be entertained today. Just send me the gifts if you want to.”

“This...”

The bodyguard was tall and strong, so Lloyd had no choice but to go back and report to Gavyn.

When he opened the car door, he had a stoic look on his face, and his heart was beating fast. He contemplated his words to make them sound as pleasant as possible.

“The security guard at the door said that the Koch family has recently refused visitors, and no one can go, but you can give him the gift. You see...”

Gavyn’s gaze sharpened, and a cold gleam appeared in his eyes.

Lloyd pursed his lips and held his breath.

“Mr. Delacruz...”

Gavyn opened the car door with a cold face. “No one can stop me from going where I want to go.
