Chapter 155
Divorced but Delighted
Chapter 155 Is This What You Meant by Having Nothing To Do With Each Other?
He was not in the mood to negotiate, but he still agreed.
As if she was afraid that he would go back on his word, she repeated, âReally? Did you not lie to me?â
âItâs true. Iâm not lying to you.â
He feared the girl before would cry, so he coaxed her helplessly and dotingly, âWhen you want to go back, set a time and let me know in advance, okay?â
As soon as he finished speaking, she threw herself into his arms. âI know you dote on me the most, but I have to stay in New York for another two days. Iâll discuss when to go home with you.â
After getting a positive answer, a smile appeared on Cierraâs face. She loosened her grip on his neck and carefully checked the bouquet in her arms.
If she continued to hug him, her roses would probably break down.
At this point, how could William not understand that Cierra was pretending it?
There were no tears on her face at all. Except for her red eyes, there was no sign of crying.
âHow dare you lie to me!â
He stopped coaxing her and got angry first.
Cierra was not afraid of him. She snorted and said, âYou taught me. If I donât know how to lie, can I be your sister?â
William was so angry that he laughed, speechless.
how Cierra took the initiative and pouted, âI donât care. Anyway, you promised me you wouldnât lie to me.â
William couldnât be bothered to pay attention to her. He snorted and turned around but didnât mention not going back. He consented.
He didnât have to argue with this girl. Since he had already said it, he would do it as he spoke.
Moreover, he had only promised to send her back. He had not said that he would meet anyone with her.
Cierra also knew this was an agreement, but she could tell William was unhappy after being deceived by her.
She immediately approached him, protected the flowers with one hand, held his arm with the other, and acted like a spoiled child.
âI know that you are the best. You wonât lie to me and wonât bear to let me leave New York like this. When I see Ms. Navarro someday, I will put in good words for you in front of her. Also, these flowers will not affect your marriage. After all, Ms. Navarro also knows the relationship between us. It doesnât matter if you give me more.â
âCici Barton, are you looking for trouble?â
He sn*tched the roses from her and said, âYou heartless girl. How dare you make fun of your brother after sacrificing my marriage to give you the flowers you like?â
âOuch, be gentle. Donât break the flowers.â
Cierra was lower than William. He took the roses, and she couldnât grab them even if she h**ked his hands. She could only pretend to be pitiful. âI was wrong. I wonât tease you anymore. Give them back to me quickly. Iâm starving. I havenât even had dinner yet.â
âServes you right for throwing a tantrum.â
William didnât tease her much. Seeing she h**ked her hands and jumped a few times, he gave her the flowers and walked toward the LâOpera Restaurant.
âIâm sorry. I apologize to you.â
Cierra knew it was her fault, so she said softly to him. She didnât even check the flowers to see if they were broken and quickly chased after William.
After catching up with him in a few steps, she tilted her head and looked at William. Seeing his casual expression, she was trying to say something about what would happen after she returned to the Barton family.
As far as she knew, William seemed to be fooling around, but he was stubborn about some things.
He might be conflicted for the rest of his life if he didnât speak out.
Just as she was about to speak, someone suddenly grabbed her by the collar and pulled her back.
Frightened, Cierra looked back and exclaimed, âWho is it?!â
She turned her head and met Dravenâs deep and angry eyes. Thinking that she had been photographed today, she became even more furious.
âDraven, are you crazy? Let go of me!â
She was dragged to him by the collar. After standing still, she could only turn her head and glare at him.
Draven turned a deaf ear to her complaints. He lowered his eyes and glanced at the roses in her arms.
William stopped when he heard the noise. He was amused and angry when he turned around and saw the scene before them.
He looked straight into Dravenâs eyes. His lazy voice was very casual.
âMr. Trevino, what do mean?â
you âMr. Barton, what do you mean? You know she is my wife, but you still sent her roses openly.â
Draven also raised his eyes and said in an indifferent voice.
A smile appeared on Williamâs face as if he had heard a funny joke. âYour wife? If I remember correctly, Mr. Trevino should have signed a divorce agreement with Cici long ago. You also went through the divorce formalities a few days ago. Itâs not appropriate for you to call her wife, is it?â
He stood on the steps before LâOpera Restaurant, looking down at Draven.
âWhat a joke! I didnât see you doing anything when Cici married you. Now that youâve divorced her, you keep calling her wife. Itâs so ironic.â
âMr. Trevino, I have nothing to do with you anymore. Could you please let go of me?â said Cierra.
It was almost time for dinner. Although many guests had not arrived, strangers occasionally looked at them.
She didnât want to see any posts related to him on the news when she woke up the following day. Moreover, the photo was taken in such a posture, so she had nowhere to hide.
And now...
The confrontation wasnât just related to the two; William might also be implicated.
The argument between the CEO of XR Entertainment and the CEO of the Trevino Group was enough to cause a sensation, not to mention her, a woman who had been involved in numerous trending topics by Aleah.
It would be an explosion.
Just thinking about it made her worried.
She had to escape from his clutches first to prevent that from happening. Seeing that he didnât respond at all, she reminded him politely.
âMr. Trevino, can you please show some mercy?â
âMr. Trevino?â
Draven lowered his eyes, gritted his teeth, and repeated the address.
Cierra hummed, but just as she was about to speak, she heard a sneer above her head.
Then, he tightened his grip on the back of her neck and pulled her closer, her back pressing against his chest.
âHmm...â
Cierra struggled to leave. Regardless of the pain in her neck, she pushed Dravenâs arm away.
As she moved, she heard a crisp sound, followed by a numbness in the back of her hand. She didnât know if she had slapped his face or somewhere else.
She only knew that her neck was in pain. She sta**ered two steps and was supported by someone.

The voice was full of worry. It was William.
âIâm fine. I was just frightened.â
Cierra shook her head and glared at Draven with her hands on her neck.
She looked away and saw two broken roses. It was a pity. âMy flowers.â
When Draven saw her like this, he felt even more annoyed.
When he saw her crying in the car, she was coaxed by the man. It was even more dazzling when she threw herself into the manâs arms.
âCierra, is this the partner youâre talking about? Is this what you mean by had nothing with each other?â
