Unveiling the Genius Behind the Divorcee Chapter 156
Chapter 156 Gavyn Has Changed
Meanwhile, at the hospital.
Inside the special care ward, the smell of disinfectant filled the air, while the blue and white walls.
reflected a cold, eerie light.
Gavyn sat expressionless on the sofa in the outer room, his long legs crossed. Under the light, hist
sharp and distinct facial features appeared deep and cold.
The door was pushed open, and a doctor walked in.
“Mr. Delacruz,” the person handed over the inspection report, “the report shows that the lady is not in
any serious danger. The blood loss is not life-threatening, and she should be fine after a few days of
observation in the hospital.”
Gavyn didn’t pick up, “It’s fine as long as there’s no problem.”
The doctor was momentarily taken aback, unsure whether this was a matter of concern or not. Left with
no choice, he carefully explained some dietary and lifestyle precautions to be taken.
Gavyn was getting impatient, but fortunately, Lloyd arrived just in time. “Doctor, you can talk to me,” he
said.
The doctor repeated his instructions and emphasized the importance of keeping a close eye on her,
making sure she wouldn’t act impulsively again.
Lloyd jotted it down and then, with a smile, watched the doctor leave.
On the bed, Laila lay flat with her eyes closed, her face slightly pale, resembling a delicate lily.
However, not a shred of pity arose in Gavyn’s heart.
He glanced over and withdrew his gaze, “Lloyd, go contact her family and have them come take care of
her.”
Gavyn referred to Laila only as “her,” seemingly unwilling to even say her name. After saying this, he

The woman hadn’t even woken up yet.
“Take care, Mr. Delacruz.” Lloyd repeated, personally escorting Gavyn to the entrance of the ward.
After making sure he had left, Lloyd returned to his room.
Looking at Laila’s pale, earthy complexion on the hospital bed, Lloyd couldn’t help but feel a sense of
melancholy.
Once upon a time, Mr. Delacruz would always stay by Laila’s bedside, waiting for her to recover, even if
it meant putting aside important projects at work.
It seems that Mr. Delacruz has truly gained some clarity on certain matters.
Lloyd shook his head with a sigh, took out his phone, and began scrolling through his contacts. Just as
he was about to make a call, he heard a rustling sound coming from the hospital bed nearby.
“Mr. Jones.”
Laila let out a delicate sigh.
Although Lloyd didn’t particularly like Laila, he still maintained basic politeness and greeted her, “Ms.
Marsh, you’re awake. How are you feeling?”
Laila slowly sat up in bed, as if she had just woken up from a deep sleep, and had not yet fully adapted
to the unfamiliar hospital room environment.
She stared at the snow-white wall for a moment, lost in thought. “Did Gavyn bring me here? Where is
he… where did he go?”
“The company has an urgent matter, so Mr. Delacruz has gone to handle it.”
As a competent assistant, Lloyd had the ability to come up with plausible excuses with ease.
“Oh…”
Laila lowered her eyes pitifully, but soon put on an understanding expression. “It’s all right, I know he’s
busy with work, and it’s not a big deal for me. You should get back to your work too, I don’t want to hold
you up. I’m really sorry.”
Lloyd’s eyebrows twitched twice as he watched.
Now that Laila was awake and able to take care of herself, he was more than happy to enjoy some
leisure time.
“Take care of yourself, Ms. Marsh. I’ll be going now.”
Thud!
The door closed gently, leaving Laila alone in the spacious hospital room, which was now incredibly
quiet.
The woman’s face began to uncontrollably contort!
Damn it, damn it!
Laila sobbed as she furiously slammed her pillow onto the bed. Despite being so badly hurt and going
through so much, she still couldn’t win back Gavyn’s heart.
In fact, she was awake the whole time and never fainted at all.
She just wanted to see if Gavyn would stay or not.
Unfortunately, everything went against our wishes!
Gavyn was no longer the same person who used to worry about her and stay up all night. He left
without hesitation, not even staying a minute longer!
The thought of her carefully devised plan being ruined in an instant filled Laila with such hatred that she
gritted her teeth in anger.
An overwhelming sense of crisis engulfed her, and she fiercely pounded the soft quilt once more. Her
palm was dripping with blood, pinched by her sharp fingertips.
In a fit of anger and regret, Laila took out her phone and quickly dialed a number.
As soon as the busy tone ended, Laila anxiously said, “Aunt Helen, I did what you told me to do, but
Gavyn still didn’t stay with me!”
“You know, you’re just too young and impatient,” the woman on the other end of the phone said calmly.
“Don’t worry, I’ve already released the photos. Whether he stays or leaves doesn’t matter.
It’s mainly about building momentum, understand?”
Laila was still anxious, “But, Gavyn’s attitude towards me has changed a lot. In the past, he would
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmdefinitely stay by my side. I’m worried-”
“What’s there to worry about?”
The woman interrupted coldly, “If he can still come looking for you, it means he still has feelings for you.
It’s just that the current situation is special, and he’s not ready to let his guard down so quickly.”
Laila was reminded once again of that embarrassing scene at the wedding. If it weren’t for that fiasco,
she would be the legitimate Mrs. Delacruz of the Delacruz family by now!
“It’s all that despicable Aylin’s fault! She’s jealous of me and wants to ruin my future! That wretched
woman, she deserves to die!”
definitely 75
The woman reassured her, “Don’t worry, you have your aunt to help you. That little wretch will get what
she deserves! And Gavyn, he’ll surely be yours.
Just wait and see!”
“Sure…”
Laila secretly clenched the bedsheet tightly, her face cold and gloomy, her eyes filled with deep
resentment!
With Aylin doing this, it was as if she had openly torn her face apart with her, declaring a complete war!
Since that’s the case, there’s no need for her to hide and tuck away anymore.
Laila swore in her heart that she would repay Aylin a thousand times over for the suffering she had
endured today. She was determined to drag this despicable woman down to the end.
Laila cursed vehemently, while on Aylin’s side, everything was harmonious and joyful.
After finishing a sumptuous dinner, the brother and sister duo were snuggled up on the couch, flipping
through the latest quarterly fashion magazine together.
Aylin was eating grapes while casually commenting on what she saw, “This dress hem is cut too
narrow, it doesn’t accentuate the waistline, not very flattering…”
Robert turned the page and said, “Let’s take a look at something else!”
“Mr. Robert, Ms. Koch, someone is looking for you outside,” Malcom whispered, interrupting their
conversation. He glanced at the two of them, “It’s the people from over there who have returned.”
