Chapter 259 Gavyn Defends Aylin
In the past three years, he had not helped Aylin once.
This time, he would never back down.
Gavyn looked at Haleigh expressionlessly and said, “Also, I’ve already refused to do anything about Jacquelyn. If you bring dubious people home again, don’t go out to play poker. You’re grounded!”
Haleigh slapped her thigh and was about to start her performance again. “Heavens, I don’t want to live anymore. My elbow-”
Before she could finish speaking, she was stopped by Gavyn’s cold and stern eyes. Haleigh stopped talking in embarrassment. It was as if she had been poured with a basin of cold water.
Obviously, Gavyn was not like this before. Three years ago, no matter how she used her status as a mother-in-law to teach Aylin a lesson and suppress her, he did not say anything. There was no need to mention how free Haleigh was.
But now, after Aylin got divorced, nobody knew where she learned the witchcraft to enchant men one by one.
Now she even charmed her son.
Haleigh thought angrily, Aylin Koch!
That vixen!
He was so enchanted that Gavyn even disregarded her as his mother.
Tears of grievance rolled down Haleigh’s cheeks uncontrollably. She stomped her feet in anger and ran away crying.
Ignoring the gaze of the customers, Haleigh ran out of the door and took a deep breath. She did not feel the foul breath in her chest ease a little and still felt suffocated.
She took out her phone from her pocket and quickly dialed a number.
“Hello? Carmen, are you home?”
Carmen said lazily, “I’m here. What’s wrong?”
“Don’t go out yet. I have something to discuss with you when I get back!”
Haleigh hailed a taxi. Her Korean-style trimmed straight eyebrows were furrowed.
She thought, I can’t just let that bitch go. I must teach Aylin a lesson!
Gavyn was not in a good mood after sending Haleigh off.
When he returned to the company, he was still filled with coldness, and the employees passing by trembled.
In their eyes, Gavyn had always been expressionless.
Nobody knew who could have made him so angry.
Lloyd was already waiting in his office.
After sitting down, Gavyn knocked on the table and asked, “How’s the investigation going?”
Lloyd knew that Gavyn was asking about the relationship between Aylin and Harry.
Lloyd stood obediently, raised his head, and glanced at Gavyn carefully, saying, “Mr. Delacruz, this… I haven’t found out yet because I’m in a hurry…” Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.
Gavyn’s expression stiffened, and a cold aura enveloped him instantly.
“In a hurry?”
Gavyn suppressed his anger and stared at Lloyd with deep eyes. “The last time I asked you to investigate the Divine Doctor, you didn’t find anything. Don’t tell me you still don’t have enough time!”
Lloyd knew very well that the “woman” mentioned could only mean Aylin.
Gavyn’s aura was too strong. Nothing else mattered except those that were related to Aylin. Recently, Gavyn had been extra attentive to anything associated with Aylin, and Lloyd had to pay extra attention to every report.
He did not dare to look directly at Gavyn now.
Lloyd was also frustrated. He lowered his head in respect and fright. After hesitating momentarily, he said stiffly, “The Divine Doctor is nowhere to be seen. The last time she appeared, there was no video. It is really hard to track her down. Give me some more time, and I will definitely find out.”
The thing he had been looking forward to was in vain, and he ran into Aylin and Harry acting intimately with each other and being treated rudely by the man. Gavyn was annoyed to the extreme at the moment.
Bang!
He waved his hand, and like a gust of wind, the papers on the table were flung in all directions. A few of them drifted down and hit Lloyd’s head.
“You didn’t find out Aylin’s identities and couldn’t get information on Harry and the Divine Doctor’s whereabouts. What’s the use of you?”
Lloyd was so nervous that his body stiffened, and it took him a moment to find his voice. He knew it was useless to say anything at this time, so he silently squatted down and picked up the documents one by one, gently placing them in the corner of Gavyn’s desk.
“Mr. Delacruz, calm down, calm down…”
“It has been so long, but you haven’t found anything useful. Which of the things I asked you to do can you do well?” Gavyn glared at him angrily. His handsome face was stern. If the look in his eyes could become real, Lloyd would have been killed hundreds of times. “I’ll give you another half month’s time. Either you find out about the Divine Doctor and the relationship between Harry and Aylin, or-”
Gavyn paused for a moment. His eyes were as dark as the sea at night, and his tone was full of cold anger.
“Get the hell out of here!”
Lloyd had never been so frightened in his life. He nodded repeatedly and hurriedly said, “Yes, yes. Thank you for giving me another chance, Mr. Delacruz. I’ll do it right now!”
After saying that, he ran out of the office without looking back.
He felt alive again when he breathed in the fresh air outside.
Counting from that day, his investigation time would decrease as each day passed.
He still had a month to live.
Lloyd thought, Help!
Heavens!
Let Ms. Koch and Mr. Delacruz make up and be like before. If this continues, I will die!
Some were happy, while others were sad. Obviously, Aylin was the happy one.
In the huge private room, family and friends were laughing.
Robert handed Aylin a tissue to wipe away her tears. “Aylin, are you crying? There are more surprises later.”
“Surprises?” Aylin held back the tears of joy and smiled. “Robert, you have prepared so much at this time.”
“Of course! Bring him in!” Harry clapped his hands.
As soon as the door opened, two burly men entered and pressed a wretched man down. The two people on the left and right were undoubtedly Robert’s men, and the one in the middle was the one who was being controlled.
It was the indignant Sebastian.
Harry and Robert glanced at each other quietly, their eyes fixed on the culprit. who hurt Aylin.
In fact, it was Robert’s sudden decision to bring Sebastian to the dinner. With Harry’s help, they had a lot of connections and power in New York. Catching a poor director who had lost all his money was not difficult. Since they wanted. to give Aylin a gift, they might as well catch Sebastian together so that Aylin could save herself the trouble of looking for him.
Harry raised his chin slightly and said, “Ayl, I’ll leave him to you.”
Sebastian was like a stray dog at this time. His chin was messy with light stubble. The dark circles under his eyes stretched down to his cheekbones, and his eyes and cheeks were a little sunken. Obviously, he could not sleep or eat. well for days. Once he went bankrupt, his fine clothes and surroundings turned into dust. The earth-shattering changes forced this man, who had almost no ability to live, to a dead end.
His only thought was to let Aylin, who had harmed him so much, be punished, but he did not expect Aylin to stand in front of him. Instead, he was pinned down and harmed.
“What do you want? How dare you kidnap me in broad daylight? I’m going to sue you!” Sebastian shouted. “It’s all your fault that I lost my wife. How dare you arrest me? I’m going to call the police!”
“Okay, let’s see who the police will arrest first!” Aylin’s beautiful eyes narrowed. “Don’t think I don’t know what you’re doing. Those punks have long given you up. Tell me, who is your helper?”
Aylin understood very well that Sebastian had just gone bankrupt and was busy filing a lawsuit with his wife. He could not pay off a huge debt. Even if he had the energy to find a punk, he might not be able to afford a high remuneration, and he certainly could not do it alone.
Sebastian was obviously stunned. He turned his head away, unwilling to say more.
“I don’t understand what you’re talking about!”
Aylin sneered. Good. Pretending to be dumb?
She would not show mercy. She raised her knee slightly and kicked Sebastian in the chest
