Chapter 144 You\u2019re Nothing But a Joke to Me\u00a0<\/p>\n
The word \u201cex-husband\u201d were like a slap in the face to Troy.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Shawn was stunned.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Winnie gasped and covered her mouth in surprise. \u201cOh my gosh, Ms. Keaton, you\u2019re so young, and yet you\u2019ve already been married?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Ayla nodded. \u201cIt was a mistake I made when I was young and dumb.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Winnie glanced at Troy. She didn\u2019t know him well, but from his looks, his presence, and those custom- tailored clothes, he was clearly not an ordinary guy.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Falling for a man who had everything going for him when she was young and na\u00efve didn\u2019t seem like such a loss after all. At least he was rich and good-looking. Now that it was over, it was just a wild story from Ayla\u2019s past, not something to be ashamed of.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Winnie said sincerely, \u201cMs. Keaton, you\u2019ve really had quite a life.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Shawn, on the other hand, knew Troy was Draven\u2019s half-brother, so he couldn\u2019t accept it as quickly as\u00a0<\/p>\n
Winnie did.\u00a0<\/p>\n
He had actually been thinking of helping Draven win over Ayla, but now that idea was completely out of his head.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Shawn looked at Ayla, then at Troy, then back at Ayla. His respect for her just kept growing.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Shawn loved beautiful women. Ayla was stunning, and he definitely liked and admired her. But if it came to dating, Shawn probably wouldn\u2019t take the risk to date her-she was just too strong-willed to handle.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cSo, Ms. Keaton, are you here with your ex-husband to catch up?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Ayla replied flatly, \u201cThere\u2019s nothing to catch up on between us.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Shawn glanced at Troy. He was starting to get it-Troy was here to win Ayla back. But from the looks of it, he didn\u2019t look like he was trying at all. It seemed more like he was waiting for Ayla to come after him.\u00a0<\/p>\n
You don\u2019t even know what you should do to win her back. No wonder you ended up as her ex-husband.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Shawn tactfully said, \u201cThen we won\u2019t disturb you any longer.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Ayla knew Shawn would go straight to Draven and spill everything about Troy,\u00a0<\/p>\n
Since Troy had followed her all the way to the hotel, it wasn\u2019t something she could hide. She decided to just let it be.\u00a0<\/p>\n
At this hour, breakfast was basically over-it was more like brunch.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Ayla picked out a bunch of food, found a spot to sit, and treated Troy like he was invisible the whole time.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Troy pulled out the chair across from her and sat down, demanding answers. \u201cWhat exactly happened last night?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Troy only had a rough idea of what happened. He wasn\u2019t clear on the details, and he had no clue what Shawn meant about marrying Ayla.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Logically, he knew it wasn\u2019t possible, but he just couldn\u2019t accept it.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Ayla didn\u2019t say a word and just focused on eating.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She refused to say anything, and Troy had no way to make her talk.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Troy himself didn\u2019t really understand why he followed Ayla here in the first place.\u00a0<\/p>\n
But it didn\u2019t matter anymore. He had already flown all the way to Aqualith, and things had spiraled out of control.\u00a0<\/p>\n
After brunch, Ayla had nothing to do for the rest of the day.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Troy didn\u2019t want to leave, and she couldn\u2019t make him. Mostly, Ayla didn\u2019t want to waste the energy avoiding him. She didn\u2019t want it to seem like she couldn\u2019t stand having him around.\u00a0<\/p>\n
If Troy figured that out, he might stick around just to annoy her.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Troy was already a closed chapter in Ayla\u2019s life. Whether he stayed or left, it didn\u2019t affect her at all.\u00a0<\/p>\n
True indifference meant feeling nothing for the other person.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cAre you really planning to stick with me all day?\u201d she asked coldly.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cAnniversary is an all-day thing.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Ayla let out a cold laugh. \u201cWhat is it you want to celebrate?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Troy also laughed, his voice full of mockery. \u201cI want to remember how much you used to love me.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Ayla sneered, \u201cSo you\u2019re really stuck on how good I was to you. In that case, I\u2019ll remember just how cold- hearted you were to me, so that every time I think of you, all I feel is disgust and nothing else.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Troy had never loved Ayla, so even if she had made up her mind to divorce him, it didn\u2019t change anything for him.\u00a0<\/p>\n
But he didn\u2019t want to hear her cold, mocking words.\u00a0<\/p>\n
He said, \u201cAyla, you\u2019d better talk to me properly.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Ayla crossed her arms. \u201cI told you to leave, but you\u2019re the one sticking around and wanting to spend the anniversary together. Like I said, if you can\u2019t handle the way I am now, then just leave. Don\u2019t even think about changing me. Also, compared to how you used to freeze me out, what I\u2019m saying now is actually\u00a0<\/p>\n

pretty damn gentle. If you still can\u2019t take it, then just go to hell.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Troy was stunned by her bluntness.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cYou have a choice-make a fool of yourself, or disappear from my sight right now. Either way, I will see you at the courthouse on Monday for the divorce procedures.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Troy had no comeback for that.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Ayla didn\u2019t care what he thought. She was just thinking about how to spend the day. She was never actually going to spend the stupid anniversary with Troy.\u00a0<\/p>\n
But then Troy spoke up again. \u201cYou don\u2019t really want to see me, do you? So why don\u2019t you just tell me to leave?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Ayla looked at him again. \u201cTo me, you\u2019re nothing but a joke. If you want to leave, I won\u2019t stop you. If you don\u2019t, I might throw a few insults your way just for fun. Either way, it doesn\u2019t cost me anything, so why waste any more energy on you? You\u2019re not important to me anymore, and I won\u2019t waste my precious time on you.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
