Chapter 65 Three Things She Left Behind
Warren let out a heavy sigh. “Tyrone, you’re a wonderful kid. We owe a lot to you. We’ll always remember everything you’ve done for our family.”
Then his tone changed. “But Aella was spoiled growing up. She has a bad temper and always acts up. She doesn’t deserve you. Since you already have someone you love and even have a child, Aella won’t stand in your way anymore. Just get the divorce.
Tyrone’s face froze.
He forced a smile, trying to explain. “Warren, there are things I really can’t tell you right now. But believe me or not–I never wanted to divorce Aclla.”
He stood up and looked at them firmly. “Our marriage is between us. Please don’t interfere. Let us figure it out ourselves.”
Miriam’s tone turned sharp. Her heart still ached for her daughter. “A real man keeps his word. You asked for a billion dollars, and we’ve gathered it for you. For the sake of that poor girl who’s loved you since she was little, stop dragging her through this. Just sign the papers and let her go.”
Tyrone didn’t answer her question. Instead, he asked, “Miriam, please tell me—what country did Aella go to? What’s her address?”
Miriam stood and turned her back to him. Miriam turned her back to him. “My daughter finally stopped crying. I won’t let you hurt her again.”
Warren got up and opened the door. “We’ve said everything we need to say. Go home and think about it. The sooner you finalize the divorce, the better.”
Even though Aella’s parents were furious about Tyrone’s betrayal, they still kept their dignity. They didn’t yell or curse, just held everything in.
Tyrone slowly stood, looking at Miriam’s back.
After a long pause, he walked toward the door.
He stopped in front of Warren and said firmly, “I will not divorce Aella.”
Then he stepped out. The door slammed shut behind him.
Tyrone stood outside, frozen. He didn’t leave right away.
Ever since he was young, whenever he visited their house, Aella’s parents would always treat him like family.

Pearls
They would cook for him and fuss over him, and though they couldn’t help much in his work, they always worried about him.
Even when Aella first mentioned divorce, her parents still invited him over for dinner and asked about his work,
But this time, for the first time, he could feel their coldness and distance.
When Tyrone got back to his car, he called Noel. “Check where Aella has been these past few days,” he ordered quietly. “Find out where she is now.”
Late at night, on the third floor of the Regal Club.
Brad pushed open the door to a private room. Tyrone was passed out on the couch, surrounded by empty bottles.
Brad walked over and checked if Tyrone was still breathing. He only relaxed when Tyrone shoved his hand away.
Tyrone sat up slowly and rubbed his temples, looking drained.
Brad dropped his usual laid–back attitude. “I just came from your house,” he said. “Zera and her kid are gone. You look awful, man. Go home, sleep it off. You can deal with everything tomorrow. Aella just went abroad, not to another planet.”
Tyrone didn’t reply. He poured himself another drink.
Brad sighed. He’d tried to hold it in, but he couldn’t anymore. “Listen, buddy. To divorce you, Aella sold her mom’s family jewels. She remodeled your villa and invited Zera and her kid to live there. She gave Zera her wedding ring. Don’t you get what that means?”
Tyrone lowered his head. His shoulders slumped like the weight of the world had just crashed on him.
Brad continued, “It means Aella’s serious. She’s not trying to make you jealous. She really wants this divorce.”
“She doesn’t,” Tyrone said firmly.
“She’s frustrated, that’s all. Letting Zera move in and giving her the ring, she did that to push me into choosing her.”
Brad stared at him with an expression that screamed, “You can’t be serious.” He opened his mouth but couldn’t even find the words.
Later that night, Brad drove Tyrone home.
