Chapter 70 You’re Our Lucky Star
However, Cierra wasn’t surprised.
When her relationship with Coby was announced, she had expected that the Boyle family would come to her, but she didn’t expect that they had waited for so long.
But she wasn’t in a hurry to pick it up.
After the phone rang for a while, she slowly picked it up. She didn’t say anything and just listened in
silence.
Vanessa’s ingratiating voice came from the other end of the line. “Cierra, it’s Mom. What have you been busy with lately?”
At this time, Cierra was eating a cake. It was bought by William on the way back to coax her.
She ate a spoonful and answered politely. After all, there’s no need to be rude since Vanessa didn’t
offend her.
“Mrs. Boyle, if I remember correctly, you asked me to call you aunt ten years ago. As for recently, course, I’m busy divorcing Draven. If you’re free, please try to persuade him. Being busy all the time is not good for his health. Let him take a break and go through the formalities with me when he has time. It won’t take him much time.”
As soon as she finished speaking, there was a moment of silence on the other end of the line.
Cierra was not in a hurry. She could guess that Vanessa was gnashing her teeth.
of
It wasn’t her fault. It was Draven that didn’t divorce her. She hoped her complaint could make Aleah
urge him.
“Cierra, I’ll find time to get the divorce done. You don’t have to be in such a hurry.”
Just as she took another bite of the cake, a man’s deep and familiar voice suddenly came from the Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.
phone.
The sudden voice frightened Cierra and she almost choked on the cake!
She didn’t expect Draven to be at the Boyle’s.
What was even more unexpected was that he was listening to the phone call.
But soon, Cierra calmed down and said in a cold voice, “Since Mr. Trevino is listening by the side, please remember it. After all, divorce is not a small matter. Don’t always forget it, lest I keep delaying your new marriage.”
e put down the spoo
After saying that, she put down the spoon in her hand.
Although she hadn’t finished eating the cake, she felt that it suddenly tasted bad, and the happy sweetness couldn’t let her secrete new protein.
Men were scourges!
Draven didn’t say anything more and Cierra heard Vanessa’s voice, “Cierra, let’s not talk about divorce now. Since you’ve signed the agreement, there’s no hurry. I’m calling you today to ask if you’re free to come home for dinner. Your father will be back in a few days, and let’s have dinner together.”
In Cierra’s impression, her father was a person who valued profits very much and had been busy with the Boyle family’s business all year round. Over the years, he had relied on the Trevino Group to develop well, but he still didn’t go home often.
He tried to expand the business territory of the Boyle family outside New York.
To her, her father did not have much affection for her. When Aleah came back later, he treated
Cierra even more badly.
Only when they occasionally went to visit Ernest would he act like a loving father.
In short, he was an extremely hypocritical person.
“Mrs. Boyle, if I remember correctly, I signed a contract to end the relationship with the Boyle. family when I returned home. It’s not appropriate to take me to dinner, is it?”
She didn’t stand on ceremony with Vanessa and cut to the chase.
She had to admit that it was exactly what she wanted.
The Boyle family was worried that she would use her identity as an adopted daughter to make trouble and get the property. She was also afraid that the Boyle family would disturb her relatives
who really loved her.
As she expected, they called them.
They came for Coby this time. If the Barton family really announced her identity, the Boyle family would probably be eager to marry her.
Vanessa, on the other hand, didn’t seem to understand Cierra’s words. “Cierra, I was too angry back - then. Why are you still mad at me? I raised you, so how could I really kick you out of the house? Can
you go home for dinner on Tuesday?”
Cierra knocked on the table but did not refuse her directly. The main reason was that she had not figured out what Vanessa meant yet.
If it was because of Coby, Vanessa did not ask her to take him with her.
She didn’t want to go, but if she didn’t go, it would be bad for Coby’s career if the Boyle family
slandered him for the favor of raising her.
Even if the Boyle family had gone too far, they had raised her and she couldn’t show any evidence to prove that they wanted to kill her behind her back.
This passive situation made her a little annoyed.
While she was thinking, Vanessa said, “Cierra, I can understand that you’re still angry with me. Now that you’ve found your family, you’ll definitely have a better life in the future. I’m happy for you. Can you just have a farewell dinner with me and let’s say goodbye to each other, okay?”
The way she talked made Cierra feel even more disgusted.
She closed her eyes and took a deep breath, trying not to hang up the phone directly.
Just as she was about to respond, the phone was suddenly taken away by someone behind her, and a clear voice came from above her head.
“Okay, Mrs. Boyle. Cierra is free on Tuesday night. I’m her brother and I want to visit you recently. I wonder if I can come with her on Tuesday.”
Coby’s voice was as clear as his face.
Vanessa was very happy. “It’s our honor to have you here. Aleah admires you very much. She often watches your movies at home!”
“Coby…”
Cierra felt uncomfortable, but before she could say anything…
she was interrupted by Coby’s action.
He made a shushing gesture and continued, “Mrs. Boyle, see you on Tuesday night.”
“Okay, see you on Tuesday night!”
He hung up the phone.
Getting back her phone, she asked with an unhappy look, “Coby, why did you promise her? She’s up to no good! Maybe she’ll use this relationship to let you help Aleah!”
As she spoke, she picked up the spoon angrily and dug up the rest of the cake, as if she had a grudge against it.
Coby looked at her with amusement, and his cold eyes softened a little. “If I don’t agree, won’t you agree?”
“I…”
Cierra hesitated.
She would indeed agree because if this matter was not resolved, it would be a ticking time bomb.
It was better to solve the problem completely.
But she didn’t want Coby to get involved and be angry because of the Boyle family.
Coby knew what she was thinking and gently stroked her head.
“Cierra, you’ve suffered a lot outside. Now that you’re back, we can’t let you bear everything alone. The Boyle family wants to see you because of me, so I’ll accompany you there. It doesn’t matter.”
He had already made her suffer in the Boyle family last time. How could he let her be troubled by
them alone?
Cierra felt warm but sad. “But I don’t want you to endure such trouble.”
It was she who brought the trouble.
Coby chuckled, “Cici, how can your business be troublesome? Don’t think too much about it. You have never been our trouble. You are our lucky star.”
