Chapter 198
Divorced but Delighted
Chapter 198 A chill of Disgust Like the Trevino familyâs old house, the Barton familyâs old house was built by the older generation in the previous life. It had a long history, but because of its different regional cultures, the styles of the two old houses were somewhat different.
the Trevino family stood by the mountain, while a stream surrounded the Barton familyâs house.
It was surrounded by fence walls of all kinds of flowers and plants. After getting inside, there were a lot of fruit trees. Judging from the trunks, they must be old.
When they went further in, they saw that the house was surrounded by a corridor bridge that was full of classical atmosphere, but there were all kinds of modern furniture and equipment inside.
In the past, Cierra had only seen the decoration of the house when she had video chats with Mrs. Chester. Now that she had seen it with her own eyes, she only felt that those ancestorsâ aesthetic tastes were really amazing.
But now was not the time to appreciate these things. The most important thing was to find her nephew.
After entering the old house, they didnât stay idle. They went straight to find Will who were hiding.
As Cierra was unfamiliar with the route, she followed behind William.
But after a few steps, she found that William was not in the mood to look for Will at all.
In the end, Cierra stopped as well. âWilliam, donât tell me you want to leave? You promised to stay with me in Los Angeles for a few more days. You canât go back on your word.â
When Cierra was chatting with Mrs. Chester, she felt that William did not look well. She was worried that he would think too much about it, which would worsen the gap between him and other families.
William glanced at her and gave Cierra a flick. âWhat are you thinking about? Donât you want to look your nephew, do you?â
Cierra rubbed her forehead knocked by William. âItâs obvious that you didnât look for him carefully, and I donât know the way. What if I get lost?â
It had to be said that the Barton family was really wealthy. Just the place where the fruit trees were planted and the grape trellis were built, was three times bigger than the Boyle familyâs villa, not to mention the old house behind it.
If Cierra walked inside alone, she might really get lost.
Therefore, it was reasonable for Mrs. Taylor to worry about Will getting lost at home. It was such a big piece of land, and she didnât know where the child was hiding.
Seeing that William not moving, Cierra couldnât help but push him, âWilliam, did you do the same thing when you were a child? Are you thinking about where you were hiding at that time?â
As soon as Cierra finished speaking, William looked at her with an inexplicable expression.
Cierra was dumbfounded. âI really got you right?â
William pursed his lips and did not refute her words.
Although there were surveillance cameras outside the Barton familyâs old mansion, it was easy for Will to hide himself somewhere, since it was close to the mountains and rivers, and there were a lot of trees and flowers planted in the yard.
William hadnât been back for a few years, and these trees were a little different from what he remembered. If he was asked to find Will, he might get lost with his Cierra.
Thinking of this, he grabbed Cierraâs hand and pulled her back.
Cierra was confused.
She asked in surprise, âWilliam, where are wegoing?â
âLooking for Will.â
With a casual tone, William took her to the main room.
Cierra wasnât familiar with this place, so she could only follow William to go.
Before she could take a few steps, she heard a burst of crying, which made her heart tremble. She almost subconsciously thought of Aleah.
She looked up and saw a well-dressed woman following behind Mrs. Taylor.
âIâm sorry, Mrs. Taylor. I really donât know where Will went. I just looked down at my phone and didnât keep my eyes on him. When I looked up, he has gone somewhere. Itâs all my fault. Donât drive me away.â
Mrs. Taylor was speechless, âItâs Madam who asked you to leave. Itâs the first time that Cierra has come back today. We are very busy today. Iâm very grateful that you came to take care of Will, but you...
After all, Cherry was a guest, so Mrs. Taylor couldnât say anything more and led her to the door.
âPlease go back first. Iâll tell you if we find Will, but Madam is so angry today. In order not to annoy her, youâd better leave first today. Otherwise, you wonât have a chance to come again in the future.â
The woman looked aggrieved. Just as she was about to follow Mrs. Taylor, she glanced over from the corner of her eyes and suddenly widened her eyes.
Cierra, who met her gaze, was also a little stunned. She didnât expect to bump into an old acquaintance here, who she had known in New York.
Cherry, who always followed Aleah as a bestie, was her half-sister.
Rich and powerful families had a lot of grievances. Even a declining family like the Riley family had a lot of trouble.
It was said that the Riley family was originally united by marriage with a family with a powerful background. Later, Mr. Riley divorced because of his love affair. The ex-wife took her daughter directly back to her parentsâ home, and Mr. Riley married another lady from a small family and had a new daughter.
As for the mistress who broke up the otherâs family, she was sent away by money. In short, there was no trace of the woman in New York.
Cierra had seen Ms. Riley when she was young, who had probably relied on her motherâs arrogance and had a good time at school.
However, Cherry was a few years older than Cierra. Although she had heard of Cherryâs prestige, she had not been bullied by her.
At this moment, they met again here at Cierraâs home. Cherryâs mature face overlapped with the arrogant and domineering young lady in Cierraâs memories. It was inevitable that some subtle feelings would arise in her heart.
âMs. Rileyâs mysterious background... Could it be related to the Barton family?â thought Cierra.
Cierra didnât think too much about it. Se silently retracted her gaze, intending to leave first with William.
In fact, they didnât know each other well. After all, they had met once.
âStop right there!â
Just as Cierra was about to leave, Cherry stopped her.
Cierra wasnât the only one who felt displeased when she heard this.
Even Ms. Taylor and William beside her frowned.
However, Cherry couldnât see anyoneâs expression. She went straight to Cierra and looked her up and down with teary eyes.
âYouâre the ex-wife of Mr. Trevino, whose new bride was a celebrity and just caused a scene at the wedding in New York. Youâre her younger sister, right? Whatâs your name?â
Cierra lowered her gaze.
She didnât expect that she would still be attached to Draven even though she had divorced him.
However, there was nothing she could do about it. Although this relationship had ended, it could not be erased. And it was inevitable that she would be implicated with Draven more or less.
Cierraâs expression was calm as she nodded politely at Cherry.
âCierra.â
âI know you. Iâve seen your photos on the Internet. You look prettier in person.â

âYou have a good taste. You donât get along with Aleah, do you? I like you very much!â
Cierra was speechless.
âDoes her misunderstand Iâm Williamâs girlfriend?â thought Cierra.
Instead of explaining, she smiled and replied, âThank you. Youâre also very beautiful.â
Cherry snorted and did not look at Cierra. Instead, she turned to look at William next to Cierra and said in a sweet voice, âWilliam, wow, youâve brought your girlfriend back. Can you take me to go inside with you? I didnât mean to fail to keep an eye on Will. Iâll apologize to Auntie and Jaquan later, okay? Please...â
Cierra felt a chill running down her spine and quietly took a step back.
