Unveiling the Genius Behind the Divorcee Chapter 205
Chapter 205 The Truth Revealed
Daniel watched the scene that just unfolded and realized that there might be some misunderstandings between him and Aylin.
He has always prioritized Ms. Koch’s interests. Perhaps explaining things clearly would actually be a good thing for both of them?
After giving it some thought, Daniel and Gavyn arrived at the rarely visited staircase.
The light in the stairwell was dim, casting a shadow over Gavyn’s face, but he didn’t seem to care.
He spoke first, “You must have just found out too, that I was once married to Aylin. I don’t have any ulterior motives, I just want to know, why was there such a big difference between her before and after marriage?
After she returned to the Koch family, what exactly happened?”
Even if a person’s character changes with their circumstances, there shouldn’t be such a drastic transformation.
“Surely, this can’t be Mr. Delacruz’s reason for being so aggressive toward Ms. Koch?”
Daniel thought about the changes in Aylin these days, and her attitude towards Gavyn wasn’t very good either. “You should be well aware of how much Ms. Koch likes you. You don’t understand your wife, and you should be ashamed of that. How can you interrogate her like this? Don’t you think it’s too rude?”
Gavyn’s expression cooled a bit, but considering the person in front of him was someone Aylin cared about, he didn’t show any displeasure.
“I just want an answer.”
Daniel rubbed his temples, feeling that the emotions of young people nowadays were really headache- inducing. After some thought, he decided to speak up about some matters.
“Ms. Koch is someone I’ve watched grow up, and I know her very well. She is an honest and straightforward person who would never deceive others. If you say she lied to you, I would have to disagree.
In these three years, all of us who cared about her were very worried, thinking she was dead, until she reappeared a few months ago.
At that time, I didn’t know why she would always pause when she saw your messages. Mr. Delacruz probably didn’t know either. During that period when she just returned, Ms. Koch’s eyes were red every day when she woke up.
She doesn’t want to bother others with her own problems, so she bears everything alone… But Mr. Delacruz, what about you? You still come to question and doubt her! Don’t you think that’s going too far?”
Daniel had watched Aylin grow up, half treating her as Aylin herself, and half as his own daughter. Whenever he talked about these memories, his heart felt like it was breaking.
She has never contacted the Koch family for the past three years?
Gavyn frowned as he listened, “You said she only contacted you recently…’
“Yes, because she lost her memory. For these three years, she has lost all memories of being the daughter of the Koch family, and she has been by your side for three years!”
Gavyn was shocked, “Are you saying she has amnesia?”
In an instant, he froze, thinking he had misheard. His face showed a myriad of emotions, and he couldn’t quite pinpoint the feeling in his heart.
“Yes, Ms. Koch didn’t die after the accident; instead, she lost her memory!” Daniel looked at Gavyn with some annoyance.
This young man is indeed handsome and promising, but he doesn’t know how to care for others.
He’s not worthy of Ms. Koch!
Daniel snorted heavily and said, “That’s all I have to say, Mr. Delacruz. You’re on your own now!”
Daniel left, and Gavyn was still standing there, stunned. It turned out that Aylin had married him because she had lost her memory, and the divorce was due to her regaining her memory, not because of infidelity during their marriage.
Had he always… misunderstood her?
Gavyn felt as if his heart was in turmoil, leaving a rather unpleasant taste in his soul.
He got the answer he was looking for, but instead of the expected relief and satisfaction, he felt a heaviness in his chest that made it hard for him to snap out of it.
She regained her memory and divorced him, so why did she choose him when she lost her memory?
This doubt, Daniel, who had left, also had.
He just never asked, never tried to poke at Aylin’s scars.
Even if a person loses their memory, their true nature still remains. Given Aylin’s proud character, even if she lost her memory, she shouldn’t have fallen head over heels for a stranger, throwing caution to the wind.
Gavyn probably didn’t make a good first impression, so why did Aylin choose him?
After being disrupted by Gavyn, the conference room was no longer a suitable place to stay. Aylin hurriedly made her way to her private office.
Upon opening the door, a delightful floral fragrance greeted the senses.
Waylon curiously surveyed his surroundings and successfully found the source of the floral fragrance.
Aylin is a person with a zest for life. On her office desk, she has placed a white porcelain vase filled with a bunch of fresh and unique lilies.
On the white wall behind the chair hung a calligraphy piece. It wrote: [Revere Heaven and Love Mankind), which was likely Aylin’s way of reminding and motivating herself.
Aylin took a few deep breaths, calming her restless emotions caused by Gavyn, and then said to Waylon, “Please, have a seat.”
Waylon pulled out a chair and sat down, smiling playfully, “Your office is quite unique and elegant. I should get a couple of potted plants for my own office too.”
Aylin raised her hand, signaling her assistant to make a fresh cup of coffee for Waylon. She tilted. her head slightly and asked, “You didn’t come bere just to see what my office looks like, did you?”
Waylon blinked and said, “Of course not, we’re here to discuss cooperation. But your office is so beautifully decorated, I can at least take some inspiration from it, right?”
He has always been following Aylin’s words, without any seriousness or solemnity in discussing cooperation.
In a typical business transaction, both parties’ leaders would have countless doubts and concerns. They would try to pry some information from the other side’s mouth to maximize their benefits.
But Waylon’s casual and careless attitude didn’t seem like he was discussing something serious at all.
Aylin recalled their last conversation, raising her eyebrows slightly, “Collaboration is all about. win-win situations. In order to break into the embroidery market, we need to invest heavily in advertising and research costs. You said you’d take care of all these expenses, but based on the calculations, you won’t make any profit at all.
Waylon, why did you do this?”
Even if Waylon wanted to give her a chance to collaborate and win her favor, he wouldn’t have to invest so much.
Aylin didn’t believe that he was the type to lose his rationality when in love. After all, he had graduated from the prestigious Camp Count, making him no ordinary person.
“Because I believe in you,” Waylon said, his eyes narrowing into a charming smile. “I trust your judgment in investments. It’s that simple.”
This statement is not false.
Aylin’s father, Timothy, made his fortune in venture capital, possessing the remarkable ability to multiply his investments tenfold.
Most people invest by following the market trends, but Timothy has a unique and forward-looking. perspective, leading the market by several years. By the time others catch on, he has already explored those opportunities.
One could say that he led the market.
Timothy’s extraordinary skills and unparalleled vision once made him the envy of high society at the time.
“Everyone in New York knows the inspiring story of your father building his fortune from scratch.
And as his daughter, you must have inherited his great talents after all, a tiger never raises a dog as its offspring.”
Waylon blinked at Aylin and said, “In other words, I trust Mr. Koch’s daughter. He has a keen eye, and his daughter must be no exception. Following you, we can definitely make a lot of money. A little initial investment won’t be a loss.”
With just a few words, Waylon sketched out the image of Timothy’s heyday in the finance industry, and subtly revealed the longing in Aylin’s heart.
Timothy was truly remarkable, always able to teach her many things and guide her through confusion when she felt lost.
She really missed Timothy a bit.
Aylin chuckled lightly, “You sure are a sweet talker.”
Seeing her enjoy herself, Waylon leaned back lazily on the sofa and smiled at Aylin, “Not at all, I’m just telling the truth. You’re not only as smart as your father, but your appearance also shares the same blood…
Perhaps it’s not that simple, right?”
Aylin’s smile suddenly disappeared, and she crossed her arms, leaning back in her chair. She raised an eyebrow at Waylon, “If I hadn’t done my research, I would have been completely fooled by your flattery.
