Ayla didn\u2019t look anything like the quiet, obedient girl he remembered.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Troy finally got it-her change in just a month made sense. She\u2019d planned to divorce him from the start.\u00a0<\/p>\n
He remembered how down she had seemed at first. But now, there wasn\u2019t a hint of longing for their marriage on her face.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She was completely ready to end it.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Having someone snap him into reality like that? Yeah, Troy wasn\u2019t used to it.\u00a0<\/p>\n
He scanned her from head to toe, then locked eyes with a mocking snort. \u201cBounced back fast, huh?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cFast? I\u2019d say slow,\u201d Ayla shot back. \u201cI hate that I didn\u2019t wake up sooner. Thinking about you and the past only makes me feel disgusted.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cIs it because of Draven? You changed after he came back. How else could you stop loving me overnight? You loved me so much. Ayla, is he really that great? Do you like him?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Ayla sneered. \u201cIt has nothing to do with Draven. I stopped loving you because you aren\u2019t worth it! Don\u2019t use him as an excuse for your own problems. Even without Draven, I\u2019d still divorce you!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Troy\u2019s hands curled into fists. The anger in her eyes reminded him of how she snapped in the car that day. She must\u2019ve been hurting then. So, leaving him should hurt now. Leaving shouldn\u2019t be easy if it\u2019s painful.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cNot worth your love? You loved me for three years. How did that just disappear?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Ayla almost laughed. \u201cYeah, three years. But I also collected three years of disappointment. Get it? It didn\u2019t disappear overnight. I just finally saw you for who you are. You\u2019re not worth it, and I\u2019m done lowering myself. Life will be better without you.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Troy wasn\u2019t stupid. He understood every word. He hadn\u2019t cared before, so he hadn\u2019t remembered any Maybe he heard it, but didn\u2019t take it seriously.\u00a0<\/p>\n
He could ignore her again. But not this time.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Ayla had really pissed him off.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The feeling hit him like a punch. No way to pretend it wasn\u2019t there.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Even at his angriest, he stayed calm and blank. Under Ayla\u2019s cold stare, he walked to the dining table, pulled out a chair, and sat.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She thought he\u2019d lost it. \u201cGet out.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Troy rested a hand on the table. His eyes darkened.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She\u2019d made herself clear, but he still thought her change had everything to do with Draven.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cI know what happened last night.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cSo?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
He snorted. \u201cSo you like Draven, don\u2019t you? He played the hero, and you didn\u2019t melt?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Ayla saw obsession in his gaze.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Troy raised a brow. \u201cCan\u2019t wait to jump into his bed, huh?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

He looked around. \u201cThis is a presidential suite. You\u2019re just his secretary. Do you deserve to stay in a room like this on a business trip?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Her eyes caught his contempt, and she couldn\u2019t help laughing. \u201cTroy, are you hoping I cheat? Do all men secretly want to be cuckolded?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
His face fell.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cIf that\u2019s what you want, I can make it happen. So, do you?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cAyla, you-\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cYou flew in at dawn just to grill me about Draven? Isn\u2019t that ridiculous?\u201d Ayla sneered. \u201cHave you ever even noticed how you treated me? Following me all the way to Aqualith makes you look pathetic.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Troy fell silent.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cNow that I want a divorce, you care all of a sudden?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Ayla\u2019s face showed nothing but indifference. \u201cIf that\u2019s the case, you\u2019re even more pathetic than me!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
His fists clenched tighter.\u00a0<\/p>\n
A week ago, losing control in her old guest room had filled him with rage. He was angry at himself. He\u2019d stormed out and drunk with Skyla, slowly cooling down as he slipped back into old habits.\u00a0<\/p>\n
He thought he\u2019d gone back to normal. That slip had only been because her meltdown in the car had left a mark. That was why he went into her room.\u00a0<\/p>\n
He hadn\u2019t expected that before even realizing what was happening, he\u2019d already flown to Aqualith and stood in her hotel room.\u00a0<\/p>\n
He felt a second wave of losing control.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Then, he went calm. His cold stare locked on Ayla. \u201cYou really love flattering yourself. After all that talk, it still comes down to whether I love you or not. Now I fly to Aqualith to find you. Does that make you happy?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
