Chapter 219
Divorced but Delighted
Chapter 219 Sadness Cierra had noticed Wanda the moment she entered the door.
She thought that she was just Jaquan Bartonâs assistant, so she came in, put down the documents, and left. Unexpectedly, she was in a daze and looked very sad.
âWanda also realized that she had lost her composure and quickly apologized.
âSorry...â
Without saying much, she put down the computer and left quickly. Looking at her back, she seemed to be running away.
Cierra stared at her for a long time.
we It was not until Jaquan brought her some water that she came to her senses.
She unscrewed the juice and took a sip. The sweet and sour taste filled her mouth, and she spat out the words.
âJaquan Barton, was that lady just now your assistant?â
âYes.â
Jaquan responded in a low voice and looked out through the one-way glass. He could just see the thin figure in Mr. Bartonâs office.
Withdrawing his gaze, he looked down and asked, âWhatâs wrong?â
Cierra also noticed that the glass of Jaquan Bartonâs office allowed him to clearly see the location of the lady outside.
Although it was one-way, there were printers and all kinds of things outside Mr. Bartonâs office, which were rarely seen.
There was only one desk. When she looked up, she could see a thin and small person.
âJaquan Barton, do you like her?â
Jaquan almost choked on his juice and coughed so hard that it was as if he was sick.
Seeing this, Cierra couldnât be bothered with her questions and quickly went over to pat Jaquan Barton on the back.
âIâm just asking. Donât get too excited!â
Jaquan raised his hand and stopped her in a low voice. âDonât pat him. Donât send me away with your strength.â
Cierra immediately stopped and smiled awkwardly. âIâm sorry, I couldnât control myself.â
She really didnât know what to do with the spoon.
Seeing that Jaquan was much better now, she put down the juice in her hand and began to trace back to what had happened just now.
âSo, Jaquan Barton, do you like her?â
As soon as she finished speaking, the old and young also p*icked up their ears and stared straight at Jaquan.
Jaquanâs expression remained unchanged as he glanced at the figure outside the door from the corner of his eye.
âWhat are you guessing? Little girl, are you thinking about this all day long?â
âIâm divorced. Iâm not a little girl.â
Cierra grumbled unhappily.
With a slight shift of her gaze, she could see the thin figure she was alone.
sidethrough the glass. Moreover, Cierra didnât believe that Jaquan Barton didnât have any other thoughts.
And the look in the ladyâs eyes just now...
She frowned.
âJaquan Barton, are you really not interested in her at all? She seem to like you.â
Hearing this, Jaquan was stunned.
He froze for a moment, feeling that he didnât know where to put his hands and feet.
At the same time, he spoke in a casual tone, but there was a hint of caution in it.
âHow do you know that she likes me?â
âA womanâs intuition.â
Cierra blinked.
She could feel that no matter how hard she tried to hide her feelings for him, there would still be dlues.
Whatâs more, the young lady had made it so obvious just now.
In the past, when she liked Draven, it was the same.
She was so scared that she hid carefully.
Because of the fact that Draven liked Aleah, she was afraid of being called a mistress at that time, so she secretly came to the Trevino family with Ernestâs help in order to take a few more glances at him.
It was as if Jaquan Bartonâs glass door was opened just to look up at the person outside.
Sometimes, she would panic because of Draven. For example, when he treated Aleah well, she would be stunned and didnât know what to do.
It was as if the young lady who had just come in with a computer was stunned and didnât know what to do.
No matter what, Cierra wouldnât believe that Jaquan Barton had nothing to do with her.
However, Jaquan sneered at her intuition and said with a chuckle, âDonât make wild guesses. She has been with me for seven years and has been with me since I took over the company. If she really likes me, why hasnât she shown any signs to me yet?â
âWhat about you?â
Cierra retorted.
Jaquan was stunned and did not understand what Cierra was talking about. âWhat do you mean?â
Cierra said, âYou said that she didnât express her feelings for you, so why didnât you take the initiative to love her? Jaquan Barton, youâre still a boy.
How can you let her take the initiative?â
Jaquan was even more stunned. âBut... but she doesnât like me. If I take the initiative, doesnât that mean...â
Wouldnât that scare her away?
He didnât take the initiative. After all, she had always been by his side.
One or two years, just like this for the rest of his life.
But if they couldnât be friends, where could he find her?
Cierra finally understood.
It was not without reason that Jaquan Barton had been single for so many years.
She gently sighed and touched Willâs little head. For a moment, she didnât know what to say about Jaquan Barton, so she could only helplessly look at her father, trying to find the same feeling.
On the other hand, Charleâs considerations were far-reaching.
At this moment, he looked serious. âJaquan, if you really like her, you can pursue her. Girls all need being coaxed.â
âIf you coax her and flatter her, sheâll always have a little interest in you. I know that your assistant, she has done a good job all these years. I have no objection about your relationship, but no matter what, I have to consider Willâs opinion.â
Will had been silent for a long time, and his face darkened.
It was at this moment that Cierra realized this problem.
She quickly lowered her head to look at Will. When she saw the childâs dull and aggrieved expression, she knew that something was wrong.
âWill, donât you like this auntie to be your mother?â
Cierraâs heart ached. She kissed Willâs forehead guiltily and held the child in her arms.
âIf you have any opinions, you can ask Dad. If you donât like her, he will definitely respect your ideas.â
Will pursed his lips.
After a long while, he looked up stubbornly and said, âCanât Dad marry my biological mother?â
There was a moment of silence in the room.
Although Cierra had only returned to the Barton family for two years, she knew that Jaquan Barton. had been looking for that woman for five years.
There had been no news for so many years. He had tried all the methods he could think of, but the news was always like a stone sinking into the sea.
What if he couldnât find her?
Could it be that she wanted Jaquan Barton to be alone for the rest of his life?
He was young at the moment, so maybe he didnât care about it.
But he had a lover. Didnât he want to marry the girl he liked?
He had always been alone, and then watched the girl he liked get married to another man, but he couldnât do anything about it.
He kept an eye on the woman in front of him every day, thinking that it was good to be like this.
What about in the future?
In the end, they would grow old.
In this world, it was always unfair to girls. It was said that the older a man was, the more popular he would be. A woman who was not married would become a leftover woman. What if one day a girl outside wanted to settle down?
Divorced but Delighted ï¤Chapter 218 She proposed to resign. She said that she would go back to her hometown to get married and have children, and she would disappear from Jaquan Bartonâs sight forever.
And then?
Many years later, what would Jaquan Barton think?
Should he regret it? If he had been braver and hadnât considered his sonâs feelings...
Of course, if it was too far away, no one knew what would happen in the future.
But now, the most important thing seemed to be to appease this young man.
Cierra got down from the sofa and squatted in front of Will.
She knew that what she was going to say next might be a little cruel, but he couldnât always live in the comfort of fantasy. He had to understand some reality.
âWill, you should know that from the moment you were born, Dad has never given up looking for your mother. He also hopes to find her and take good care of you. But itâs been five years now. Thereâs no news of her at all. What if sheâs already...â
âNot in this world?â
Seeing the sadness on the childâs face, Cierra couldnât bear to see it.
So she changed her words and tried to be as gentle as possible.
âWill, you want Mom to be with you, and Dad also wants the person he likes to be with him, right? If he meets the person he hopes for and misses it, he can only watch his sister marry someone else. How sad will he be...â
âMy mother must still be alive in this world. I will definitely find her!â
Without waiting for Cierra to finish, Will suddenly choked with s*bs and interrupted her. He pushed her away and rushed out crying!
