Crises in Love (Zora and Jaylan)

Chapter 462

He laughed with reckless abandon, as if there was no tomorrow.

"Those clowns at the salon, they call me a dreamer, claiming that I would never get you! Ha! It doesn't

bother me one bit. They're just jealous—jealous I've got a pretty face!"

He shrugged his shoulders with pompous pride, as if he was still the once successful CEO.

Leaning in close to me, his broad face was too near, eyes threaded with crimson veins, corners of his

mouth frothing, his cologne mixed with sweat creating a nauseating stench.

"You liked my face, right?! That’s why you couldn’t resist me!" His voice was dripping with self-

satisfaction and wickedness. "So, divorce? Aaliyah, don't even think about it! Isn't it nice for us to live in

peaceful together? With three kids, even if you leave me, you can’t do anything as a single mom! Even

I wouldn't go after someone like you again!"

He cackled like a madman, then suddenly turned to me and said, "Medsafe Liyah Inc. is gone, so

what? We start over! You still have Oldtown Avenue, and there's VitalAxis Pharmaceuticals, right? So,

Aaliyah, don't worry, I'm not divorcing you!"

After his tirade, I spoke with an undeniably calm and firm tone, "I'm divorcing you!"

His eyes narrowed instantly, his gaze piercing as he looked at me, murder in his eyes.

"Say that again?" He lunged at me, his breath hot on my face, utterly repulsive.

He ground his teeth and repeated, "Say that again? Aaliyah!"

I didn't flinch, meeting his gaze head-on, "I said, I'm getting this divorce. The downfall of Medsafe Liyah

Inc. was the greatest gift I ever gave you. If you think I'll continue playing this game with you, Jaylan,

you've lost all your value to me. I'm done!"

"Do you hate me?" He suddenly asked, and then nodded presumptuously, "Right, you hate me!"

"Hate requires love as its precondition! Without love, where does hate come from? Are you worthy?

You are a beast, how could you know love or hate!" I spoke evenly but seriously, "In this divorce, you

leave with nothing. Give up all marital assets and custody of the kids!"

"What did you say?" He roared at me, pointing his finger, "What did you say?"

I handed him the divorce papers, "If you can't understand, then read. Sign when you're done!"

"Don't even think about it, Aaliyah... Don't even think about it!” Jaylan shouted like a madman.

“Do you think, after all the despicable things you've done, that I would tolerate with you? Did you really

think I was good-natured enough to let you slice away at me?" Throughout, I remained composed,

which only made him look more like a fool.

"You think you can dump me? And leave me with nothing? You've got some nerve, Aaliyah Wilburn.

Don't forget, this is Goldenvale Town!" He said childishly as if Goldenvale Town granted him some

twisted immunity. Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.

"No matter where we are, you don't stand a chance!" I stated definitively.

"Stop the act, aren't you tired, Jaylan?" I couldn't help but laugh at his pathetic display, my laughter

He froze, examining my smiling face, his eyes shrinking like a startled cat, filled with shock, obsession,

and longing.

He covered his face, sobbing uncontrollably.
