Chapter 69


    Chapter 69 Hesitation


    Vanessa didn’t expect him to agree so easily and was stunned for a moment at the message.


    “Mom, how is it?”


    Aleah asked anxiously, for fear that she would be disappointed again.


    After confirming his words, Vanessa heaved a sigh of relief and grinned. “It’s done! He said he would


    be here soon. Don’t forget what I taught you. Men will fall for such a trick if you pretend to be pitiful.”


    Aleah nodded and breathed a sigh of relief in her heart. She lowered her head and showed weakness


    to her mother. “I see, Mom. I’ll listen to you in the future and never act on my own again.”


    As long as Draven was willing to see her, there was still hope.


    She didn’t want to be tortured by that devil again….


    Vanessa had no idea what Aleah was thinking. She only felt sorry for the people who had been


    scolding Aleah on the Inte recently and gently hugged her.


    “All right, all right, my baby girl. I’ve made you suffer these days. I’ll help you if you want, and I’ll also


    find a way to avenge you, okay?”.


    Aleah threw herself into Vanessa’s arms, and her eyes were as fierce as Vanessa’s. “Thank you,


    Mom.”


    Half an hourter, Draven arrived at the Boyle’s vi.


    He was led into the room by the serv ants and saw Vanessa wiping her tears on the sofa.


    “Mrs. Boyle.”


    Draven didn’t change his expression and stopped beside the sofa. His figure was so tall that no one


    could ignore it.


    As if she had just noticed his arrival, Vanessa raised her head in surprise. Wiping away her tears in


    embarrassment, she said, “Draven, you’re here. Sit down. I’m sorry to have made a fool of myself.”


    “No need, Mrs. Boyle. You know why I’m here. Where’s Aleah?”


    Draven declined and looked around.


    Vanessa hesitated for a moment and said worriedly, “Aleah… She’s still in the kitchen.”


    Draven frowned,pressed his lips, and remained silent for a moment. “Please take me to have a


    look.”


    “Okay!” Vanessa forcibly suppressed the joy on her face, wiped the corners of her eyes with a tissue,


    and led the way. As she walked, she said earnestly, “I know Aleah is wrong this time. I have scolded


    and punished her. I took her mobile phone and didn’t let her call you again. It’s so ridiculous. How dare


    she copy video and post it? What if she posts the belongs to yourpany next time? It’s my fault that


    I don’t educate her well!” your


    Behind her, Draven didn’t say anything but frowned even more deeply. He was angry with Aleah not


    only because she copied the surveince video of Stream Vi, but also because she deliberately


    exposed the video and guided public opinion. As for whether she would steal thepany’s


    documents or not, he would store them separately, even if she took some unimportant ones, once


    investigated, he would take legal measures and would not defend her just because she liked him.


    Hearing that Vanessa had confiscated Aleah’s phone as punishment, he understood why Aleah hadn’t


    apologized for so many days. But even so, it could not be denied that Aleah had done something


    wrong this time. It was the same as what she had done before when she hired someone to humiliate


    Cierra. She needed to give others an exnation. Just as he was about to speak, he heard Vanessa


    say, “Aleah has been in a bad condition for the past two days. She refused to take the medicine


    prescribed by the doctor. I know you’re angry, but after all, you two grew up together. You used to say


    that you would take good care of her…” As she spoke, she choked with so bs.


    Draven also choked, especially when he saw Aleah, who was in a mess in the kitchen.


    Aleah’s hair was a little messy, and her clothes were not tidy. Her face and hands were covered with


    flour and cream. At this moment, she was rubbing the dough on the kitchen table and muttering.


    Draven’s eyes darkened and hepressed his thin lips tightly when he saw the scene.


    Vanessa, who was next to him, cried again. “Aleah has been like this for the past two days. She said


    that she would make you a cake to apologize. I hope you can forgive her. Draven, I had no choice but


    to call you over…”


    While Vanessa was crying, Aleah saw Draven.


    Aleah was happy at first, and then her flour-covered face showed a look of resignation and fear. She


    walked over carefully and looked at him. “Draven, are you still angry with me? I’m sorry,!. know I was


    wrong. I’ll make your favorite cake. Please don’t be angry, okay?” As she spoke, she turned around and


    went to the oven to take out the cake that had already been made and handed it to him. “I won’t do


    anything bad again. Please forgive me. It doesn’t matter if you don’t want to marry me. Just let me like


    you. I won’t make trouble for Cierra anymore. I’m sorry.” Draven looked at the cake in front of him. It


    was this cake that gave him a little sweetness andfort when he came out of the dark room with a


    whip on his body.


    It was also from that time on that he began to pay attention to the little girl who waster found by the


    Boyle family. He was silent for a long time before he epted the cake. “I’ll get someone to deal with


    the matters. on the Inte. You don’t have to worry. As for marrying you, I haven’t changed my mind.


    I’ll finish the divorce procedures as soon as possible. You should listen to Mrs. Boyle and don’t let her


    worry

    anymore.”


    Aleah was surprised. “Really? Draven, don’t you like Cierra? You didn’t say that because I’m pitiful, did


    you?”


    At the mention of Cierra, Draven hesitated for a moment.


    The scene of them being trapped in the elevator half an hour ago appeared in his mind.


    He remembered the moment when he grabbed Cierra’s hand.


    “Draven?”


    Aleah guessed why Draven was lost in thought, but she could only suppress the anger in her heart.


    Hearing her calling, Draven came to his senses. He nced at the cake in his hand and said, “Don’t let


    your imagination run wild. Of course, I don’t like her.”.


    Aleah smiled and said, “Then I’m relieved. I’ll apologize to Cierra. I won’t do anything bad to her


    because of you…


    Draven frowned and said, “It’s not your fault. It’s me who didn’t handle the rtionship well.”


    “All right. It’s good that the misunderstanding has been resolved. Let’s go out and eat first. It’s not good


    to stand here.”


    At this point, Vanessa knew that Draven had forgiven Aleah, so she interrupted their conversation and


    changed the topic.


    It was no good to say more.


    A man would be rebellious if he was pushed too hard and always asked if he was willing to marry


    her, not to mention that Draven obviously had that bi tch in his heart.


    Her baby daughter was still young and ignorant, so she had to remind her.


    Indeed, Draven didn’t talk much and followed them to the dining room. He acted quickly and arranged


    the things for Aleah.


    Soon, the public rtions team of the Trevino Group began to clear her name again.


    Although the golden PR time had long been missed, money was omnipotent.


    Cierra learned the news on the Inte when she returned to Aqua Apartment.


    To her surprise, she also received a call from Vanessa.
