Chapter 59 Why Did You Block Me?\u00a0<\/p>\n
Halle had been drinking when they talked about this, but now her mind was completely\u00a0<\/p>\n
clear.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cAyla, I don\u2019t regret confronting Skyla. Even if I\u2019d known Troy would get back at me, with my temper, I\u2019d still do it again without hesitation. So this has nothing to do with you.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s you I\u2019m worried about. You sure you want to use Draven for me? I\u2019ve been asking around. Anyone who messes with him either goes bankrupt or disappears from the circle. He\u2019s more ruthless than Troy.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cSo don\u2019t worry about me. It\u2019s just a few lost deals, not a bankruptcy. I can handle it.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
The losses weren\u2019t huge.\u00a0<\/p>\n
But the message was clear. ZeitTech had pissed off Winston Group.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Tech companies are super competitive, and there are plenty of options. So why risk angering Winston Group just to keep working with ZeitTech?\u00a0<\/p>\n
Halle was career-driven. Ayla knew it. That\u2019s why this issue had to be resolved.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI already talked to Will. He\u2019s willing to help.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Halle said, \u201cBut you\u2019re the mastermind. You don\u2019t need to take the risk-\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Ayla said, \u201cI\u2019ve worked with Will for a week, and I\u2019ve observed him. He handles everything perfectly and is cautious. If he\u2019s willing to help, it means the consequences are within what he can handle. So, stop worrying. We\u2019ll solve this problem together.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
After hearing this, Halle felt a strong sense of security.\u00a0<\/p>\n
It was like being protected by someone powerful\u00a0<\/p>\n
Who would\u2019ve thought that just two weeks ago, Ayla was stuck in a miserable marriage?\u00a0<\/p>\n
Halle was the one who was worried about her then.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Now, the roles had flipped.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cOkay!\u201d Halle stopped refusing.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Ayla was just a junior secretary. She couldn\u2019t go Head-to-head with Troy yet, so all she could do was find ways to minimize the risk.\u00a0<\/p>\n
1\/3\u00a0<\/p>\n
It was about time..\u00a0<\/p>\n
Ayla met up with Will, and they were supposed to pick up Draven.\u00a0<\/p>\n
But Draven made a last minute decision to come with James, so Ayla and Will went to the venue first.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The House of Myur charity gala was one of the most high-profile business events around.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The charity part was just for show-the main point was networking. Even getting an invitation had certain requirements.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The event was held in a historic mansion on a 2,000-acre estate. Everyone invited was dressed in gowns or suits, with flawless makeup a classic high-society scene.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The media crowded the place, but any photos or videos released to the public had to be approved by the organizers first.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Before the event officially started, guests mingled freely.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Will quickly got pulled aside for small talk.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Ayla hadn\u2019t eaten before coming, so she took the chance to try some of the food.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The desserts on the long table looked beautiful and tasted good.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cAyla, what are you doing here? Did you sneak in using my brother\u2019s invitation?\u201d Bria\u2019s mocking voice came from the side.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Ayla turned.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Bria was staring at her with contempt.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Bria was a spoiled rich heiress adored by everyone. She had no stress, hardly anyone could mess with her, and she spent her days vacationing and shopping with friends. With a life that\u00a0<\/p>\n
she wasn\u2019t bitter and could be sweet when she felt like it.\u00a0<\/p>\n
easy,\u00a0<\/p>\n
Her \u201cdon\u2019t mess up with me\u201d attitude meant she was annoyed with Ayla.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Bria had a friend with her.\u00a0<\/p>\n
When Ayla\u2019s gaze swept over her, the friend instinctively introduced herself. \u201cI\u2019m Renee\u00a0<\/p>\n
Pimento.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Renee had seen Ayla once before at M.L. This was the second time.\u00a0<\/p>\n
2\/3\u00a0<\/p>\n
It took real charisma to pull off a pure white gown, and Ayla nailed it. Renee was impressed.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Ayla\u2019s effortless, cool glance had an effect that was hard to describe.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Renee\u2019s heart skipped a beat.\u00a0<\/p>\n
And then there was the hacking incident.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Renee had always suspected Ayla was behind it. No proof, just intuition-but it made her watch Ayla even more closely.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Renee and Bria got along because they both lived with a sense of entitlement and looked down on most people.\u00a0<\/p>\n
But for some reason, Renee found Ayla special and charismatic. She couldn\u2019t look away.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Bria rolled her eyes at Renee. \u201cWhy are you introducing yourself? You want to get to know her? What terrible taste!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Renee said, \u201cI was just-\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Ayla interrupted. \u201cDo you need something?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Bria glared at Ayla, gritting her teeth. \u201cWhy did you block me?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
She couldn\u2019t get over it.\u00a0<\/p>\n
If Troy hadn\u2019t given her 50 million to calm her down, she\u2019d have bugged him to make sure he taught Ayla a lesson.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Now that she ran into Ayla, she might as well deal with it face to face!\u00a0<\/p>\n
