Chapter 35
Divorced but Delighted
Chapter 35 Is Clerra Cici Barton?
In the VIP lounge on the second floor, Draven stood by the railing and looked down expressionlessly.
âDraven, what are you looking at by standing there?â
Ryan had always been full of interest in beautiful women at parties.
Unfortunately, Ryan had just returned from abroad. There were more men looking for Ryan for business than women inviting Ryan to have fun. Ryan had just gotten the chance to leave those businessmen.
If not for the huge catwalk in front of them, Ryan wouldnât know it was a fashion show.
Ryan held a glass of wine and went to Draven. Then, Ryan patted Draven on the shoulder and sighed.
âYou are more comfortable than me. When you stand here with a cold face, no one dares to come over. Unlike me, there are people who bother me wherever I go.â
ven put away Ryanâs hand with a cold face. âStay away.â
â
âWhy are you so angry? You left Aleah downstairs and went to look for Sylvia. However, you didnât find her. So, youâre mad at me, right?â
Ryan did not continue to pat Drave, but Ryan kept talking.
Then, Ryan followed Dravenâs gaze and suddenly became surprised. Ryan widened his eyes and patted the railing.
âHey, isnât that my wife? Who is the man beside her?â
Draven gave Ryan a cold look.
âYour wife. Thatâs your wife!â Ryan said hastily.
Dravenâs gaze fell back on Cierraâs back as she left. Draven stood still and didnât say anything.
Ryan finally saw clearly the man Cierra was holding. Then, Ryan exclaimed in confusion.
âHow could Cici know Floyd BernardâBarton? Furthermore, she seems to be more intimate with him than you.â
Draven gazed at Ryan coldly again.
However, this time, Draven explained, âThe president of Conny Technology, Colton Bernard, is the matrilocal sonâinâlaw of the Barton family. So he and Fannyâs twins sons, Floyd and Harold, are surnamed BernardâBarton. William is the twinsâ cousin.â
Ryan had seen William and Cierra together at Ninth Club. Since Willian was the twinsâ cousin. It was not hard to explain why Cierra knew Floyd.
Ryan didnât think too much about the twinsâ surname.
The Barton family in Los Angeles had always kept a low profile. The young generation of the Barton family were all capable.
In other words, William owned an entertainment company. Floyd was a star player in a popular eâsport competition. Thus, Floyd was found to be from the Barton family in Los Angeles.
Most people didnât even know the names of the other young people of the Barton family.
Ryan suddenly thought of something and turned to Draven. âHey, Draven, do you remember the last time the Barton family donated 83 million dollars because their youngest daughter was brought back? Do you think Cici is the daughter of the Barton family?â
Ryan thought, if that is really the case, the Barton family is out of the West familyâs league.
The Barton family is even out of the Trevino familyâs league.
A few years ago, the Trevino family could rival the Barton family.
However, in the past few years, the young people of the Barton family have been earning so much money. However, Draven is the only capable young man in the Trevino family. He has no other helpers.
The Trevino family canât rival the Barton family in the number of excellent young men. Thus, the Trevino family canât rival the Barton family in other aspects.
After Ryan said what he guessed, they were silent for two or three seconds. Next, Draven denied quickly.
âNo, thatâs impossible,â Draven said resolutely.
âHow do you know thatâs impossible? The young men of the Barton family are so attentive to Cici.â
Ryan looked at the Barton family, âAnd I heard that the daughter of the Barton family also seems to be called... Cici Barton. Exactly, thatâs the name.
Donât you think this is a coincidence?â
Draven looked at Ryan scornfully. âThe name Cierra was given by my grandfather. If she were really the daughter of the Barton family, she wouldnât have changed her name. Thereâs no need. Only you can come up with such an oldâfashioned name like Cici.â
When Draven said Cierraâs nickname, Cici, he seemed to be gnashing his teeth.
Ryan said unhappily, âWhatâs wrong with the nickname, Cici? Isnât it a lovely nickname? The daughter of the Barton family is also called Cici. Why did you even scold her by teasing me?â
Draven did not reply.
Obviously, Draven did not have a good Impression of the Barton family. So, he thought there was nothing wrong with him scolding the daughter of the Barton family.
Draven no longer bothered with this name. Then, his tone became serious.
Draven analyzed seriously, âOn the day when the daughter of the Barton family reunited with her family, Cierra had just returned from abroad. She was negotiating with me about the divorce then. How could she appear in Los Angeles?â
Draven once had the same speculation. But, according to the importance that the Barton family attached to this girl, it was impossible for the girl not to be in the Bartonâs house when they announced her real identity.
That was why Draven rejected the speculation.
Drave thought, why is Cierra so familiar with the Barton family...
Dravenâs gaze suddenly darkened. âI asked you to investigate her. What have you found out?â
When this matter was mentioned, Ryan felt thwarted.
Ryan originally had some clues and found that Cierraâs files were changed. Yet, the others realized Ryanâs investigation, blocked him, and strengthened their cyber defenses.
How difficult it is! thought Ryan.
Ryan leaned on the railing sadly. âI underestimated your wife. No wonder you wanted to investigate her.â
âIâll go back to the company tomorrow. Iâll try,â Draven said.
Draven looked down at his watch and turned to leave.
He could no longer see Cierra, and there was no need for him to stay any longer.
It was about time, and Fannyâs fashion show was about to start.
Draven had been looking for Sylvia for so long, but he had not found her. Thus, he could only go to the show venue to have a try.
Draven thought, it is impossible for Sylvia to not appear since Fanny has specially invited her. She wonât be so arrogant due to her talent.
At that time, all the preparation work in backstage at the show venue was done.
Fanny was finally free and took Cierra to the lounge to have a chat.
âOur dear Sylvia, do you want to go up and talk?â Fanny turned on the live broadcast of the show and teased Cierra.
At that time, the models had not come out yet. The one speaking on the stage was the designer of the theme this time, who was sharing her design idea.
Cierra shook her head. âNo. My exâhusbandâtoâbe is still looking for me. I donât want to cause trouble.â
When Cierra had decided not to sign a new contract with the Trevino Group, she had thought that Draven would try to persuade her to cooperate with them. Yet, she didnât expect him to personally come forward.
After all, based on Dravenâs current status in the Trevino Group, it didnât matter even if he overhauled the entire design department.
Divorced but Delighted ï¤Chapter 34 Triplets Attack: Game Over Daddy ï¤Chapter 1138 When His Eyes Opened novel by Simple Silence ï¤Chapter 3189 Cierra didnât sign a new contract. There were other designers in the design department. It was not the time when the Trevino Group had been attacked by enemies three years ago. There was really no need for Draven to do this.
âExâhusbandâtoâbe? You havenât divorced yet?â
Fanny raised her eyebrows and paid attention to what Cierra called Draven.
Fanny sat down and looked at Cierra. Her tone was solemn. âCici, you canât have fantasies about men as a woman in love. Listen to me, there are no good men in the world. You have to divorce him. quickly. You canât delay it!â
Draven looks handsome. However, he sent his newly married wife abroad as soon as he got married, and it was for another woman. What a bastard!
thought Fanny.
Fanny was angry when she thought about it. Fanny looked at Cierra and felt sad for Cierra.
As soon as Fanny finished speaking, a teasing smile was heard from behind her.
âMrs. Bernard, your words are too biased. How could there be no good men in the world? Are your two sons and several nephews not good men?â
