Chapter 267 Gavyn Saw the Shocking Scene
In the Koch’s house, Ryker tried his best to maintain a natural expression as he said casually, “If you say that the person in your dream looks like me, then he must look like a model. Do you know him?”
“I don’t know him.” Aylin frowned slightly as she tried to remember. “But I’m surprised that he seems to know hacking and even taught me hacking in his dreams.”
The thing that Ryker tried hard to cover up seemed to be exposed in an instant, as though the sunlight shone on it. He looked at Aylin with complicated eyes.
Seeing that Ryker didn’t answer for a long time, Aylin raised her eyes and asked, “Hmm?”
The moment their eyes met, Ryker adjusted his expression as quickly as possible.
He smiled a relaxed smile as if nothing had happened.
“Nothing. I’m just wondering why you dreamed of someone similar to me.” Ryker leaned closer and blinked playfully. “Maybe you missed me too much.
Aylin was amused by his playful answer and pretended to reach out to flick his nose. “You brat, when did you learn those words?”
Ryker didn’t dodge either. As soon as Aylin’s hand came up to him, he cried out in pain, saying, “Aylin, you’re going to scratch my nose. It won’t look good on camera.”
Aylin erossed her arms in feigned anger. “I don’t care about that.”
“Aylin…” Ryker opened his arms wide, as if asking for a hug. He leaned forward slightly toward Aylin. “Then I don’t care either. You have to give me a hug.”.
Seeing Aylin squint and smile without saying a word, Ryker boldly and gently wrapped his arms around her and hugged her very carefully.
In fact, his posture was very gentlemanly, and his body was not close to hers.
But from other people’s points of view, it was not necessarily true.
At the door, a tall man stood in the doorway, his shadow dragged long by the light.
But his face had darkened completely!
Gavyn had a hard time entering the courtyard, and this was the scene he saw as soon as he got to the door. From his angle, Ryker held Aylin in his arms.
Its proximity surpassed the intimacy of a friend.
Gavyn had been anticipating Aylin’s reaction when he received the gift, but now it felt like someone had punched him in the chest.
Aylin was dressed in a long, skin-colored silk dress with lace trims. Her black hair, casually draped over her snow-white shoulders, cascaded like a waterfall. With her bright eyes and white teeth, she seemed otherworldly.
It was a face that Gavyn had never seen before.
When she was in the Delacruz family, she dressed in short sleeves that were so unremarkable and plain. She had been similar to white paper, dull and tasteless.
At this moment, she was so dazzling that one could hardly recognize her. Her gestures were lazy yet charming and seductive, captivating the hearts of the people around her.
Suddenly, as if talking about something interesting, Aylin smiled brighter and brighter, raising her hand to gently cover her mouth.
She was so radiant and dazzling!
Gavyn clenched his fists tightly as bitterness welled up in his heart. He had
Gavyn Saw the Shocking Scene never seen her smile like that before. Why was Ryker able to make her smile like that?
Didn’t you say that no one is allowed to visit? How did Ryker get in? Gavyn wondered.
The next scene made Gavyn’s face darken even more.
Ryker held Aylin’s hand, put a bracelet on her with his own hands, and affectionately stroked her hair. Aylin didn’t refuse his gestures.
Gavyn pursed his lips, and his dark eyes resembled a thousand-year-old pool of cold water.
His hand subconsciously clutched the edge of the gift box tightly. The force was so strong that blue veins stood out on the back of his palm. A slightly sharp corner had worn through his already injured fingertips, and deep red blood dripped down.
Aylin didn’t know that someone was watching all this.
“Is there no time for a meal?”
Ryker landed in New York last night and rushed over early this morning. However, he received a notice from his agent on the way, informing him that a postponed show was scheduled for tomorrow.
He traced Aylin’s eyebrows and said reluctantly, “The plane will fly abroad in an hour and a half. How about I inform my agent not to go?”
“What are you talking about? You can’t refuse the job you promised.”
As a superior, Aylin valued reputation very much, so naturally she would not allow Ryker to skip work.
After saying that, she raised her wrist and helped Ryker tidy up his collar. The delicate bracelet shone brightly on her fair wrist.
“Go ahead. Have a safe journey.”
“Hmph. If I’d known this sudden change was coming, I would have insisted in accompanying you for a whole day.” Ryker curled his lips. “I’m leaving, then. Aylin, remember to miss me.”
“Of course. Butler, see her out.” Aylin smiled.
Ryker followed the butler and left. Naturally, he didn’t notice Gavyn, who was hiding by the pillar at the door.
Unintentionally, he avoided a great battle.
Meanwhile, Abby came downstairs to get warm milk, and she saw a somewhat familiar tall man with an extraordinary temperament just standing from a distance.
She approached quickly on her tiptoes. Isn’t this the man who appeared in Deli
Restaurant last time?
When he arrived, Aylin’s expression changed subtly, so Abby had a deep impression of him.
“Mr… Gentleman?”
The childish voice attracted Gavyn’s attention. He looked down and saw the little girl raising her pink face. “I know you. Why are you here?”
Gavyn’s expression was grim.
Abby was not afraid. She thought of this handsome man who had stood up for her at Deli Restaurant that day.
She still had a good impression of him. Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
“Are you here to give a gift? Why don’t you go in? Aylin is inside.”
Gavyn’s eyes darkened. After a while, he shoved the gift box and paper bag into Abby’s hands with a sullen face. “Give this to her for me.”
After saying that, he turned around and left.
Abby was stunned. That man was so strange.
“You’re already here, so why leave just like that?” Abby couldn’t stop Gavyn, so she simply turned her head to call for Aylin. “Aylin, someone is looking for you outside…”
The little one’s voice was clear and penetrating.
Aylin stopped as she was about to go upstairs and walked toward the door. “For me? Who is it?”
Just like that, Gavyn’s dark eyes met Aylin’s.
Aylin was smiling brightly, but the moment she saw Gavyn, the smile on her face faded and was replaced by an expression with a hint of coldness.
The Koch family was not only heavily guarded, but also had bodyguards at the door. Ryker was a friend closer than a relative, and she had left instructions for the guards for him.
The bodyguards would not allow anyone else to pass through.
“How did you get in?”
She smiled brightly for another man, but there was only indifference to him?
Gavyn pursed his lips. Inside, his emotions were a jumbled mess.
He thought that he would see her happy expression when he came in to give her the gift in person. He didn’t expect her to only smile intimately with -another man while showing only a cold expression toward him.
Gavyn was frustrated. Seeing that he didn’t say anything for a long time, Aylin frowned slightly. “Mr. Delacruz, if there’s nothing else…”
Halfway through being chased away, Gavyn shoved the delicately wrapped gift Abby had into Aylin’s arms.
With a stern face, he said coldly, “Happy birthday!”
His tone was a little sulky, devoid of any cheer or blessing.
Aylin was at a loss for words
