Chapter 77
Alita moved her phone away from her ear and ced it on the straw mat, then sat down.
She pondered that Otis was the person Mike trusted the most during his lifetime, so Otis probably
wouldn’t have disclosed the address to Jaydon. However, she couldn’t rule out the possibility that
Jaydon might deliberately go and ask Otis.
For some reason, she felt uneasy again.
On the table, there were peaches, glistening with rainwater, appearing vibrant and tempting.
Jaydon exited thew firm, immediately got into his sports car, and transcribed the address once
again onto paper. As he wrote, his brows furrowed deeper. Wackyfield Vige? What kind of ce
is this? The name is so strange, Could Otis have made a mistake?
He picked up his phone, switched to the navigation function, and entered the address. Surprisingly,
there really was a ce on Earth with that name.
He ced his phone on the shelf and drove to the destination.
After driving for about 4 hours, he finally arrived at the small town mentioned in the address. It was
a run-down town he had never visited in his life. There were no decent buildings, and the roads
became increasingly uneven. Sweaty men were selling watermelons by the roadside with bare
arms, wearing straw hats and shorts.
As Jaydon’s high-end sports car entered thisnd, it immediately caught the attention of
pedestrians.
The navigation system had lost its functionality at this ce. He parked the car on the side. It was 2
o’clock in the scorching afternoon sun. Holding the address in his hand, he prepared to someone
how to get there.
Approaching a restaurant, he saw several people chatting inside and decided to enter.
The interior was intolerably dirty and messy for him, with the mixture of sweat and food odors
causing his stomach to churn.
As he walked in, all eyes in the restaurant stared straight at him.
“Hello!” He struggled to maintain his elegant demeanor and greeted the people inside.
“Sir, do you need something?” A plump young woman stood up and approached him.
As she stood up, Jaydon suddenly found himself surrounded by the locals. They stared at him as if
he were a rare sight. They were puzzled by the presence of this handsome man in a suit, covered
from head to toe, on such a hot day. They wondered if he was foolish.
“Could you please step back?” Jaydon endured and politely smiled at them, but inside, he was
frustrated. What was this ce?
When the people in the restaurant heard him say that, they moved aside slightly.
Jaydon quickly took out the address and asked them, “Do you know where this ce called
Wackyfield Vige is? How do I get there?
“Oh, you mean Wackyfield Vige? It’s just behind Catfish Vige. If you go past Meadow Vige
and Whimsy Vige, you’ll get there, an older man spit out and said loudly.
“If you walk, it’s quite a distance. If you go by motorcycle, it’ll still take you about half an hour,
another man added.
Jaydon pursed his lips, took out his wallet, and pulled out a stack of money. Without counting, he
asked. “Who is willing to
take me there?”
The rural folks, seeing the amount of money, were wide-eyed and eager, all trying to offer to guide
him.
A sturdy man on an off-road bike emerged from the crowd, took the money from Jaydon’s hand, and
said, “I’ll take you. I have a vehicle, and I’m familiar with the ce. Who are you looking for? What’s
their name?”
“Do you happen to know if a woman recently arrived there?” Jaydon inquired as he wanted to
gather some information.
“A woman? I’m not too sure about that, but once we get there, I’ll help you inquire. You don’t need
to worry about it, the man replied.
“Alright!” Jaydon nced at his attire and the conspicuous sports car outside the door. If he arrived
like this. Alita, being an astute woman, would immediately be suspicious and might try toBelongs ? to N?velDrama.Org.
escape again.
He narrowed his green eyes as he came up with a n.
In the afternoon, with nothing else to do, Alita took a short nap. After waking up, she strolled to the
shade of the trees in the vige, cavesdropping on the local chatter. She couldn’t understand what
they were saying since they were speaking in the local dialect, but the carefree smiles on their faces
conveyed a sense of contentment. Being in such an atmosphere made her feel rxed.
Then, her phone vibrated in her pocket. Checking it, she saw an unfamiliar number.
Could it be Jaydon calling? Or perhaps Samuel or Kim? She had read in the newspaper yesterday
that Samuel had called of! the engagement with Annabel.
After some thought, she decided to answer, thinking it might be a call from Otis. “Hello.”
“Is this Miss Alita?” A very deep voice came from the other end.
“Yes, yes, who is this? What’s the matter?” The voice was unfamiliar, but it made her inexplicably
nervous.
The
person replied. “You have an urgent package, and our vehicle can’t enter. Your address doesn’t
specify clearly, s you pleasee to the vige entrance to pick it up yourself?”
A delivery? So soon? Otis sent it out at 10 in the morning, and it was already here? But the person
mentioned it was a urgent delivery, leaving her puzzled.
Alita said, “Alright, I’ll be right there. Oh right, which delivery service are you from? I’ll find you when
I get there.”
The person replied, “FedEx
“Oh, got it. Wait for me, don’t go anywhere. I’ll be right there. Alita hung up the phone, stood up, and
instead of heading to the vige entrance, she ran towards her house.
FedEx! Everybody knew the efficiency of the FedEx delivery. When she heard the courier
company’s name, she immediately knew the person was fake. It was probably Jaydon, and his
actions were swift. She never expected Otis to help him
Panting, she rushed home, swiftly packed her belongings, and immediately headed outside.
Her phone buzzed in her pocket again. It was the same number. She calmly answered, “Hello, I’m
on my way out. Please wait a moment. It’s really hot today. I’m really sorry.”
“No problem! I can see you already,” the person on the other end said casually.
Alita raised her head and saw the “delivery person wearing a blue cloth hat not far away. He was
tall, with a pair of clean hands, emanating a powerful aura. He took the phone away from his ear
and waved at her.
It was then that she realized she had fallen for his trick. Jaydon was indeed clever. Knowing he
would stand out too much, he chose to wear such an outfit. He feared that she would run away
before he found her. Hearing themotion on the phone, he knew she must be outside. So, he
intentionally revealed a w and alerted her. Knowing that she would go home to get her things, he
could use this time to ask where she lived ande directly. What a cunning man!
“Miss, your package, won’t youe and sign for it?” Jaydon stood there calmly. Although Alita
couldn’t see his face, she could imagine that he must be wearing a smug expression,
“Miss, don’t you want your package? If you don’te, then I’lle to you.” He took steps toward
her, not showing his face, making the situation even more ceric.
Alita instinctively stepped back, her heels dragging as if she wanted to run. However, upon closer
thought, she questioned why she should be afraid. Now that she had been found, she decided to
confront him. After all, they were already separated, and what could he possibly do to her?
“Jaydon, stop pretending. I know it’s you.” She walked over briskly and snatched off his hat.
A handsome face appeared before her eyes, confirming her suspicion. It was indeed him!
Jaydon smirked at Alita. After days of yearning, he could finally see her alive and real. She was not
wearing makeup, dressed in a floral dress, pink rubber flip-flops, and her hair casually tied into a
ponytail. She looked quite down-to-earth. He had never seen her like this before. Over the years, he
had grown ustomed to her refined side.
“Are you personally delivering the divorce agreement? That’s great. Let’s sign it right away.” Alita
ignored his scrutiny and spoke sternly.
“Alita, your sense of fashion has rapidly declined. You’ve turned back into a vige girl after leaving
the Lewis family?” Jaydon dismissed her words entirely.
“My taste is none of your concern. If you’re here to sign the divorce agreement, I’ll wee you to
sit inside. If you’re her to cause trouble, I’m sorry, but I don’t have the time to entertain you. I believe
you also have business matters to attend to rather than lingering here with me.” Alita made her
words clear.
Jaydon responded casually. “I’m here to handle the divorce agreement with you. The agreement is
still on its way for delivery, and I came here to inform you in advance.”
Excuses! Alita red at him.
I’ll be staying here for the next few days, waiting for the divorce agreement with you. Of course, if
you have no intention of divorcing me, you’re free to leave now. In that case, no matter where you
go, you’ll still be my wife.” Jaydon pointed into the distance. “Co. I won’t stop you.”
Jaydon, you’re shameless,” Alita mocked him.
“Say whatever you want. The agreement is on its way. Whether you stay or leave, it’s up to you.”
Jaydon walked towards the house.
She had to go through this process. Otherwise, it would forever be her word against his. After much
consideration, she entered the house.
Jaydon was already sitting at the table, leisurely drinking water.
Alita tossed her luggage onto the bed and walked over to sit across from him. “Speak up, what do
you want?” she said. She wasn’t a fool. If he genuinely wanted to sign the divorce papers, why
didn’t he bring them along?
“I don’t want anything special. If we’re getting divorced, shouldn’t we have a farewell meal?” Jaydon
couldn’t find any other excuse. Her attitude was so firm that he had to resort to pleading.
Alita sneered coldly. “Jaydon, don’t tell me that you realized you couldn’t be without me after I left,
that you love me. If you’re trying to win me back now, I strongly advise against saying such things.
Not only will I not be moved, but I might also feel disgusted enough to vomit. Since we’ve broken
up, let’s be straightforward and forget each other.”
Her words shut him up.
