It's Too Late To Get A Divorce (Alita and Jaydon)

Chapter 57

Chapter 57 With that said, Kyla, who was sitting to one side, kicked her and looked at her meaningfully. It was inappropriate to bring this subject up right now. “He probably will go. The Melean family has quite a good relationship with the Lewis family. They would always invite us to banquets. Cecilia is Sir Mclean’s favorite descendant, he’ll definitely show up.” Valeria nodded with a smile. She felt that there would be a good show the next day. e thing. There would definitely be a Valeria wasn’t the only one with that thought in mind. The others were thinking the same bloodbath whenever Jaydon, Alita, and Cecilia appeared at the same place, at the same time. The only thing was that Alita had never won in the past, it was a contest that everyone could see the result of Alita remained silent and just ate by herself. It wasn’t the first time that she and Cecilia bumped into each other at an event. After dinner, everyone went their separate ways. Alita helped Jaydlon back to his room, “It’s inconvenient for me to have a bath. Then don’t have one, Alita replied without hesitation as she looked at him indifferently. “What?” Jaydon couldn’t believe what he had just heard. “Didn’t you say it’s inconvenient for you to have a bath? Then don’t have one. I won’t help you.” Alita knew what Jaydon wanted to say next when he asked her that question. “Haha!” Jaydon laughed loudly. “You won’t help? Fine, I’ll get someone else to help me. By then, it’s not my problem if rumors get out saying that Mrs. Lewis is coldhearted and doesn’t care about her injured husband.” “Do you know no shame? You want a bath? Fine! It’s not hard at all.” Alita felt that she would just need to pretend that she was scrubbing the bathtub. Alita quickly walked into the bathroom and began to fill the bathtub. Looking at the water rippling in the bathtub, she remembered that Kim was getting engaged the next day. She couldn’t help but

sigh. “It’s going to be a long night for you as well probably. Your first love is going to be engaged to my sister tomorrow. You must be quite upset, right?” Jaydon’s sarcastic voice sounded from behind. He appeared like a ghost and this startled Alita. His words made Alita want to laugh, but she didn’t. Instead, she pretended to say gloomily, “You’re right. I’m heartbroken. Someone else I like has become a part of the cold-blooded Lewis family. He’s so unlucky.” When explanations were useless, it would be better to just go along with the person’s words. It could give one a sense of revenge. The walking stick was slammed hard against the tiles on the ground. There was a loud thud. The sound was so loud that it seemed to have shattered Alita’s heart. Jaydon glared at Alita with a fierce smile on his face. “It’s a pity that you can’t give up the Lewis family. It’s like a gold mine to you. It’s not easy to get to where you are today.” “Well, you’ve got to be more careful in the future. Anyone could come and try to get a share of your money, especially, me, Samuel, and Kim!” Alita retorted. She then stood up. “The water ready. Get in.” With that said, she walked outside. Her heart ached so much that she didn’t want to stay a second longer. nfor Jaydon reached out and grabbed Alita’s wrist. “If you want the money, you’ve got to earn it. How far are you willing to go 1/9 Chapter 57 the money?” Alita’s chest began heaving up and down. She looked at Jaydan with hateful eyes as she gritted her teeth. Tears began to well up in her eyes as she shouted, “I will kill you!” She didn’t want to shed tears in front of Jaydon, so she pushed his hand away forcefully and rushed

out of the room. “Alita, stop right there!” Jaydon went after her. It was a pity that he couldn’t run at the moment. By the time he reached the door, Alita was long gone and was nowhere to be seen. ‘Did she… just cry? She had always been very strong. She must be too upset, otherwise, why would she cry?” thought Jaydon. crying because Kim is getting engaged tomorrow?” “Was I too harsh on her just now? Or is she Alita ran straight out of the mansion. She stood in the garden, squatted down and allowed her tears to trickle down her cheeks. She felt aggrieved. Ever since she came back from Theisia, she had never been truly happen. She would get used to it if Jaydon had always treated her with coldness. However, his occasional kindness would make her heart feel warm again and then he would stab her heart with a dagger. That was why her heart would ache so much every time. Alita took a deep breath. She was finding it difficult to breathe even on a summer night at the Lewis family. The sound of metal landing on the ground echoed in the garden. Alita thought someone was coming, so she quickly stood up and wiped the tears from her face in a hurry. Only when she turned around did she realize that there wasn’t anyone at all. Something small and glimmering landed right beside her feet. “What’s this?’ she wondered. It looked like a small ring. Alita bent down and picked it up to take a closer look. That was when she realized that it was a ring with a fine design. This caused Alita to widen her eyes and look around. “Who’s there? Show yourself!” she shouted as she walked forward, her face became serious. Alita reacted in this way because she realized that the ring she was holding was the ring that the magician was wearing. S remembered that because there was a unique pattern on the ring. It would make anyone feel amazed and that was why sh could remember this ring so clearly. This meant that the magician was in the Lewis family’s house as well.

Such a thought gave Alita goosebumps. She felt like there was a shadow that she couldn’t see following behind her and watching her every move. She ran to the front of the mansion and took another look around. There wasn’t anyone at all. “How could a fully grown man disappear into thin air after leaving the ring with me? Could it be that he’s not a human or that he really knows magic? wondered Alita. Her mind was in a complete mess. She suddenly thought of something and looked up. A shadow flashed past the balcony on by on the second floor and was about to leave. “Stop right there! Who are you?” Alita wanted to catch the figure, but she couldn’t fly. The figure didn’t stop and didn’t move again. He hid in the shadows and one could only see his figure, but not the color of 2/9 III THE O Chapter 5 57 his clothes. The figure was tall and mysterious. Are yo you that magician?” After not getting an answer, Alita continued to ask, “Who are you? Samuel? Kim? Jaydon? Scott? Brandon? Tell me, who the hell are you?” She almost named every man’s name in the Lewis family. The person turned his head a little and curved his lips. After that, he disappeared. “Hey, don’t go!” shouted Alita. She became desperate and quickly ran into the house and headed towards the balcony on the second floor. However, no one was there. When she turned around and headed back into the house, she saw a shadow turning around a corner, so she quickly went after it. She grabbed the figure’s arm. “Stop right there. There’s nowhere

for you to go now.” The person who Alita grabbed was also startled and quickly turned around. Alita widened her eyes in shock when she saw the person’s face. “It’s you!” Kim frowned slightly. “We’re in the Lewis family’s mansion and it’s nighttime. Aren’t you afraid of others seeing you holding my hand?” “Tell me. Why didn’t you dress up as the magician? Do you find funny, fooling me around? If I haven’t caught you just now, were you going to keep up the act?” Alita was infuriated.She felt that even if she had left without saying goodbye all those years back and hurt him, but so many years had passed, he shouldn’t have done this to her. “Alita, what the heck are you talking about? I have no idea what you’re talking about.” Kim smiled disdainfully, “Where were you five minutes ago?” asked Alita. “In my room!” replied Kim. “Didn’t you go out with Annabel? When did you return? Or have you never left?”This was something that Alita was suspicious about as well. Kim’s face turned cold. “I came back to pick something up. You sound like you’re interrogating a criminal right now. I’m already engaged. Don’t you have anything to say?” “You haven’t been to the balcony? Just admit it if it’s you.” Alita didn’t believe that there would be such coincidences in t world. “What do you want me to admit to?” Kim reached out and caressed her hair. “We’re going to be living under the same roo soon. We would see each other every day. I’ll have to watch you smile, cry, and be lost in the wealth of this family until I die He let go of Alita and sadness and coldness appeared in his eyes at the same time. Alita looked around. She knew she had to remain calm. Kim was suspicious, but if others saw them like this, then she would be done for. “Sorry, I seem to have made a mistake. You may leave.” Kim calmed down and took a step back. “Make sure you wear a pretty dress tomorrow. I’ll definitely be happy with you watching.”

With that said, Kim turned on his heels and left. Alita held the ring in her hand and thought back to Kim’s reaction just now. He didn’t seem guilty at all. Not only that, his anger just now didn’t match the indifferent temperament of the magician either. Was Kim not the magician? She then looked at Samuel’s room. His room was on the second floor as well. 3/9 Chapter 57 “Since I’m already here, I might as well check it out, thought Alita. She calmed herself down and walked towards Samuel’s room. Alita knocked on the door and it opened about four seconds later: Samuel looked at Alita in surprise. Alita looked at Samuel, who stood at the door wearing grey pajamas, a pair of glasses, and holding a book. He looked event more easy-going this way. Such a temperament was completely different from the magician’s mysterious and evil temperament. The two of them were two completely different types of people.. “Is there anything I can do for you, Alita? Please, come in Samuel moved aside a little, making g room for Alita to go in. “No.” Alita shook her head. “There’s no need for me to go in. Are you short-sighted, Samuel? She remembered Samuel to have really good eyesight. “These aren’t prescribed glasses. I just use them to protect my eyes.” Samuel smiled warmly. “Well, it is important for us to protect our eyes.” Alita smiled awkwardly.I’m already here anyway. I might as well test him, she thought. The wind on the balcony’s quite cool, isn’t it, Samuel?” she bit her lip and asked. Samuel felt surprised and smiled. “Hey, how did you know I’ve been to the balcony? The wind that comes from the Southeast is quite cool.” “Have you just got back to your room?” way. I went to the balcony in the evening to see the sunset. It was for the breeze that comes from the Southeast. Samuel smiled naturally. He then tapped Alita’s head dotingly. “I know why you’re

here. You want to ask me to go to the balcony with you to feel the breeze, right? You don’t need to beat around the bush with me.” Alita looked at his face, which was very kind. Samuel was acting very naturally and he was looking at her straight in the eyes as well. If he was trying to cover up his true identity, then she felt that he would be the disguiser in the world. This would mean that he was more terrifying than Jaydon and Kim. However, Alita would rather believe that Samuel was the kind and gentle Samuel she knew. “I just came to check on you, that’s all. I’ll be going now. Alita ended the conversation between them. “Alita, I feel that you’ve been acting strangely the whole day. You can tell me if there are any problems. I’ll keep it a secret you. Samuel gave her a worried look. “I think I’m close to losing my mind, living with Jaydon. I’m off now, bye.” Alita waved goodbye after mocking herself and then turned to leave. Samuel stood at the door, took off his glasses and looked at Alitas receding figure. A meaningful smile appeared on his face. After arriving on the third floor, Alita stood under a lamp on the wall. She then took out the ring and then put it on her pinky after giving it some thought. “Which member of the Lewis family does this belong to?’ she wondered. The ring was too big on her pinky and began to wobble. Alita then took it off and casually put it on her ring finger. To her surprise, the size was just right. For a moment there, Alita stopped breathing The diamond ring that symbolized Mrs. Lewis’s identity and the magician’s ring were able to fit together perfectly. Alita’s 4/9 III Chapter 57 heart raced at the sight of this. ‘How is this possible?’

Taking off the magician’s ring in a panic, she had the urge to throw it away. Why did the ring fit on her ring finger perfectly? Was it a coincidence or was it deliberate? Since the person who made this ring knew what size ring she wore, then it meant that this person was someone who knew her very well. Is it Jaydon? No, that can’t be. His leg is injured, so there’s no way he could run that fast. Alita held her head. The headache was so bad that she felt her head was going to explode. Before going into her room, she carefully placed the magician’s ring in her pocket. Pushing open the door, Alita saw Jaydon sitting on the chaise lounge. His face was darker than ever. “Where’ve you been?” “I was in the garden getting some air,” Alita replied indifferently. She then quickly went into the bathroom and locked the door. Her mind was a complete mess at the moment and she had no strength to argue with Jaydon anymore. After walking into the shower, she turned on the tap. Alita didn’t even take off her clothes before jumping under the showerhead and just allowing the water to land on her.. She knew she had to calm herself down and think about everything that had happened. The time that the magician appeared matched the time that Kim appeared. But now that the magician had appeared in the Lewis family’s mansion, the time of the magician’s appearance also matched the time that Samuel returned. Jaydon was out of the question because of his leg. Just moments ago, if the magician didn’t run, then Alita would have definitely caught him. The magician also knew that she couldn’t catch him, so that was why he was so calm. She wondered why the magician was playing hide and seek with her. After having a shower, Alita pulled on the door. That was when she realized that Jaydon had locked the door from the outside. Outside the bathroom, a crystal walking stick was placed horizontally on the door. Jaydon was lying on the chaise lounge as if he was asleep. Since she likes to lock the door and

ignore me, then I’ll give her what she wants, he thought. Alita gave up trying to open the door. This suited her as well. She placed two towels in the bathtub and went to sleep.. About three hours later, Jaydon opened his eyes and walked to the bathroom door. He removed the walking stick and gently opened the door. That was when he saw Alita sleeping in the bathtub. He didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. ‘Well, it seems that she can fall asleep anywhere’ On the evening of the next day. The cars of the Lewis family all left together and headed towards the engagement party. The location of the engagement party was at a holiday resort on the outskirts of the city. The place was so beautiful that it looked like something out of a fairytale. Thousands of acres of land all planted with lavender and roses. The whole place was billed filled with a romantic scent no matter where one went. It would make any woman not want to leave. The cars entered the resort through the main gates. They all stopped outside a light purple villa. The color of the villa was a 5/9 III O 11:08 Chapter 57 perfect match with the colors of the flowers outside. It was like a pearl in the palms of someone’s hand. The cars came to a stop one by one and the members of the Lewis family gradually got out. 10 Alita opened the car door and got out of the car. The pinkish-colored dress was slim fit and went down to her knees. Her hair was tied up high and she was wearing delicate makeup. This outfit made her look dignified and elegant. There was a diamond necklace on her neck. Each diamond was at least 10 carats. Such a dazzling appearance confirmed her identity. She was Mrs. Lewis and this was what Mrs. Lewis should look like.

Looking in front of her, the field was filled with lavender and Alita couldn’t see where the lavender ended. The field may look natural, but things were a little too neat. A real field wouldn’t be so clean. “There’s not much to look at. Let’s head inside,” Jaydon said in a deep voice as he got out of the car. Alita turned around and walked up to him. She wrapped her arms around his as they walked inside. The outside looked like something that came out of a fairytale, but the inside was extremely luxurious. It was the style that Annabel liked. She would like everything to the best standard possible. There were already a lot of guests present. Every one of them was dressed the best they could. In the distance, Kim and Annabel were greeting the other guests Out of the whole of the Lewis family, only Sir Lewis wasn’t present. Due to his health condition, he would only make an appearance during the ceremony. Alita picked up two glasses of champagne and passed one to Jaydon. “Let’s go give Annabel our best wishes together.” Jaydon looked at Kim, who was wearing a white suit, and the woman next to him with a meaningful smile. “Sure. That was what I was thinking as well.” Alua smiled. She knew what Jaydon was thinking. Another group of guests had arrived outside. Cecilia was present at the venue. She was wearing a light blue dress. As soon as she walked inside, she began searching for Jaydon. When she saw Alita with her hands wrapped intimately around Jaydon’s, she couldn’t help but feel jealous. A sweet smile appeared on her face as she walked towards Jaydon and Alita. Jaydon walked up to Annabel and Kim with Alita. They just happened to turn around at the same time as well. Annabel was dressed elegantly. Her beauty was so dazzling that i would make any man fall for her. She had long curly hair and was wearing a white dress. This made her look very elegant just like an angel. Beside her, Kim was wearing a white tuxedo. He was very handsome as well. His waxed hairstyle made him look even

stunning. The two of them looked like a perfect match. “Annabel, Kim. Congratulations.” Jaydon had a bright smile on his face. Especially when he was facing Kim. After he finished speaking. Alita said slowly, “Congratulations, you two. You’re gorgeous today, Annabel Thank you, Jaydon, Alita: Annabel hugged Jaydon and then prefended to hug Alita and kiss her on the cheek. Kim looked at the expression on Alita’s face. She was smiling, but the smile was ice-cold. “Thank you, Jaydon, Alita,” he said calmly. more Jaydon co*ked his brows. The smile on his face was brighter than ever. To others, the four of them seemed to have a very 6/9 ||| O Chapter 57 good relationship. “Jaydon.” Cecilia walked over to Jaydon. Alita’s body would always tremble whenever she saw this woman. This was how much of a threat Cecilia was. Jaydon smiled at Cecilia warinly as usual. “Well, you’re here early “I just got here. Were you alright yesterday? Did Grandpa blame you for what happened?” As she spoke, Cecilia already placed a hand on Jaydon’s arm. She made it look so natural as well. “No.” Jaydon replied with a smile. “That’s good then. I’ve been worried about you the whole night. She took this chance to wrap her arms around Jaydon’s coquettishly.

Such action of Cecilia ignoring Alita was not something new in the upper class. It wasn’t the first time something like this happened on such events. Alita had become familiar with such a scene as knew what was going to happen next. “Well, I’ll leave you guys to it. I’ll go get something to eat.” Alita turned around elegantly. well She The smile slowly disappeared. There was no point fighting anymore, she had given up. In the end, Jaydon would choose. Cecilia anyway, so Alita decided to give them room and leave herself some peace and quiet. However, something that she was so used to dealing with would still make her heart ache. Just like the first time this happened. A victorious smile appeared on Cecilia’s face. Looks like you finally know your place now, Alita. Jaydon looked at the woman who she give up on fighting for me? leaving with the corners of his eyes. He somehow felt a little unhappy. Since when did now even more unrestrained than I am! Alita went to pick up some food, walked to the resting area, sat down and began eating. She just wanted to stay in her own little world and let the others be. She was bored of all the fighting. The food on the table tasted bitter. It was like her mood right now. She wanted to cry, but no tears came out. Kim’s gaze penetrated the crowd and looked at the woman who was eating alone. He sneered inwardly. ‘Is this the life you want! So sad!’ When Alita finished all the food on her plate, the ceremony was about to begin. It was probably because she had drunk too much champagne, Alita suddenly wanted to go to the toilet. She picked up her bag and headed to the toilets. On the other side of the room, Cecilia saw Alita leaving. She ended the conversation and quickly followed Alita. Alita walked casually to the toilets. She was just about to go in when she suddenly turned around. In the corridor, a man wearing a mask and a grey suit walked past her.

The magician was here. This caused Alita’s heart to skip a beat. She completely forgot the fact that she came here to go to the toilets. She also didn’t care that the ceremony was about to begin either and quickly went after the magician. Cecilia, who arrived a short while later, saw Alita sneaking around in a panic, she immediately decided to follow Alita. She felt that Alita was definitely up to no good. 7/9 Chapter 57 Alita followed the figure up the back stairs. After arriving upstairs, she realized that the figure seemed to want her to follow him, but wasn’t letting her catch him. In the end, the figure went into one of the rooms. Alita followed him inside. The darkness caused her to lose sense of direction. Cecilia saw Alita go into a room and was stunned. Why did she go in there? Could it be that she’s secretly meeting a lover?” Cecilia was sure that Alita was cheating on Jaydon with another man. Otherwise, she wouldn’t be sneaking around and going into that room. With that thought in mind, an excited expression appeared on Cecilia’s face. She took out her phone and called Jaydon. Inside the dark room. Alita slowly made her way forward and wanted to turn on the lights. A pair of hands suddenly grabbed her.. “You… let go of me!” Alita was terrified. She was terrified of the dark and also terrified of this mysterious person. The man in the silver mask finally spoke. You’re the one who followed me here.” His voice was very gentle and attractive at the same time. “Who are you?” Alita’s breathing became fast. She regretted coming into this room so boldly. “What were you planning on doing after finding out who I am?” Alita forced herself to calm down. “Nothing. I just don’t like being fooled by someone I know.

“Well…” The darkness made the man’s chuckles sound creepy. “How do you know that I’m someone you know?” “It was you on the balcony last night, wasn’t it? Why does the ring on your pinky fit my ring finger perfectly?” Alita asked coldly. The room became so quiet that one could hear a pin drop. The time passed slowly. Alita could feel her heartbeat become slow and heavy. She felt like she was suffocating. “Because… I’m the magician. I can come and go any place I want and that includes your heart.” “You’d better not do something s*upid. Let me go…. Mmmm… y voice sounded. “Alita, open At that moment, someone knocked on the door and then opened it. At the same time, an angry this go*d(da*n door! Come out here right now!” It was Jaydon Alita’s face changed. ‘Oh g*d. How did he know I was here? If he breaks open the door and comes inside, I’m done for! “Well, he just had to ruin the moment,” said the magician. At the same time, the door was kicked open. Alita then felt the force that restrained her disappear. The lights were then turned on. There was no one in front of Alita. ‘Oh my go*d. How’s that possible? Where did he go? Does he really know magic and can go anywhere he wants? wondered Alita as she stood where she was and looked around the room. She had even forgotten that she was in big trouble. 8/9 III - Chapter 57 Jaydon limped into the room. His trouser legs were covered in blood. The pain caused his face to pale.

He held his breath and glared at the woman in the room. How dare she… How dare she come here and secretly meet with another man… Alita only came back to her senses when she heard the sound of footsteps. She then turned around. Her loose hair caused Jaydon to lose his cool and explode in anger. His hand that held the walking stick trembled due to the rising anger within him that even he couldn’t control. “I have nothing to explain, Jaydon. Think whatever you like. I have nothing to say,” Alita said calmly. She knew Jaydon wouldn’t listen to anything she said right now. Jaydon’s footsteps stopped. He suddenly started laughing crazily Haha… You think your actions are legit now? How dare you say such words after doing something so low?” Alita couldn’t help but take a step back. “That’s not what I’m saying. explain.” I just think that that you won’t listen even if I tried to Not only Alita was afraid of Jaydon, but even Cecilia, who was supporting him became scared as well. “Jaydon, let’s calm down. Don’t be too impulsive.” She was afraid that he really might kill Alita. Jaydon raised his walking stick and swung it towards Alita.. Alita pursed her lips and closed her eyes. “Ah!” Cecilia screamed in horror. She felt that Alita was going to get killed. The walking stick stopped just a few centimeters away from Alita. A pair of hands stopped the walking stick, even though the force that the walking stick carried almost broke the person’s hands. Jaydon’s savage green eyes turned sharp and cold as he slowly turned and looked at the person who dared to stop him. Not feeling the pain that she had expected, Alita slowly opened her eyes. That was when she saw a shiny walking stick and a pair of slender hands. She slowly turned her head and looked at the person who saved her. 9/9
