Chapter 29 We Are Divorced
Alva’s mind was in chaos, even more so than when she had last seen Uriah. She didn’t believe that Colt’s arrival was unintentional. Her intuition told her that he had come to find her. But besides Uriah, there was no one else who would send Colt to her. What did he want to do?
Alva closed her eyes, trying to calm herself down. After a moment, she regained her composure and opened her eyes to unzip the dress from behind. As if responding to the saying, “After the darkness comes the light,” her abdomen tightened, and she easily pulled up the zipper at the back.
Looking at herself in the mirror, her complexion returned, but the smile on her face was absent. She was Alva, but she was no longer the same Alva two years ago.
Walking out, Colt, who stood outside with his back facing her, turned around and nodded. “Miss Alva.”
Alva looked at him. “Assistant Colt, is there something you need?”
Colt looked at her. “Yes, President Irwin asked me to give this to you.” Colt took out a check and handed it to her.
Alva looked at the check, briefly stunned, then curved her lips. There was a smile in her eyes, but it lacked warmth. “What does this mean?”
“President Irwin said that if you have any difficulties, you can come to him. You don’t have to compromise and do things

you don’t want to do. After all, you were once married,” Colt explained.
Difficulties… Compromise… Married…
These words revealed a message both explicitly and implicitly. It implied that she, Alva, being with another man, had brought disgrace to Uriah.
The curve of Alva’s lips widened.
“Assistant Colt, please tell President Irwin that I, Alva, am not worthy of his kindness. Please ask him to remember that we are already divorced, and it’s best for everyone not to have any further involvement to avoid unnecessary trouble.”
After speaking, she turned and walked away.
When she turned around, her eyes reddened, but there were
no tears.
But before she had taken two steps, Colt’s voice reached her ears. “Miss Alva, you should accept it.”
Alva’s hand clenched, turned around and said, “What if I refuse to accept?”
What did he want to do to her?
Colt replied, “President Irwin anticipated that Miss Alva wouldn’t accept it. He asked me to tell you that Miss Alva should not be ignorant.”
Alva’s face turned pale.
Ignorant….

So, if she doesn’t comply, will her fate be the same as two years ago?
But what does she have left to lose now?
Alva’s fingernails dug into her palms, and a smile spread across her brows, eyes, and lips. ” Please tell President Irwin that Alva is no longer being obedient. If he likes someone obedient, he should go find someone who is.”
Don’t come looking for her.
She quickly left and slammed the door shut, her eyes bloodshot.
Uriah, I used to think you were so good, but now I see how bad you really are!
Colt watched the door close, picked up his phone, and dialled a number.
“President Irwin, Miss Alva didn’t accept it.”
Uriah raised his gaze and looked at the second floor.
Alva hurriedly descended from upstairs, her face pale but her brows and eyes red.
Her red lips pressed tightly together, displaying a stubborn and angry expression.
“She has something to tell you,” Colt paused, clearly feeling troubled.
“What.”

As Colt’s words entered his ears, Uriah ‘s pupils contracted,
dark and ominous.
“Alva?” Frank was about to go upstairs to check on Alva when he saw her coming downstairs with an unpleasant expression, and he immediately approached her.
“Alva, what’s wrong? Why do you look so bad?”
Alva apologised, “Frank, I’m sorry. I’m feeling unwell and need to go off.”
“Let me accompany you.” This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.
“No need, you have things to do. I can go back by myself.”
“But…”
“It’s okay, I’ll leave first.”
She hurriedly left, not giving Frank a chance to speak.
Right now, she wanted to be alone for a while.
The hotel was located in the outskirts with no taxis around, only luxury cars,
Alva didn’t call for a car either and walked straight ahead.
The cold wind blew, but she didn’t feel cold.
Her heart was even colder.
Suddenly, she heard a honking sound from behind.
She moved to the side.
The car stopped beside her, unexpectedly.
