After the CEO Divorced Me, He Wants Me Back

Gavin released her, his gaze lingering on the flush that painted the corners of her eyes. For once, the edges of his lips curved into a faint smile.

He leaned down, brushing a light kiss against her earlobe, and murmured, "Tonight. My room. The third time."

With that, he let her go and walked away without looking back.

Jolie clutched the railing, her breathing uneven, her cheeks tinged with a deep blush. She bit her slightly swollen lips, glaring at his retreating figure. She was certain he had done it on purpose. She announced her relationship in front of everyone, only for him to demand that she fulfill their agreement-how infuriating!

"Boom!"

A deafening explosion startled her, and fireworks lit up the night sky. Jolie looked up to see colorful blooms bursting one after another over the ocean, painting the darkness with vivid, dazzling colors.

Guests began gathering on the deck to watch the fireworks display. Yet Jolie felt no joy, only a growing sense of chaos in her life. Everything was a tangled mess, and she couldn't find a way out. "Happy birthday."

lan's voice came from beside her. He approached with a gentle smile, standing at her side.

Jolie turned to him, offering a small smile. "Thank you."

The two stood quietly on the deck, the vibrant fireworks above reflecting in their eyes as they gazed at each other. From a distance, they looked perfectly matched.

Daisy observed the scene, her expression darkening with a trace of coldness.

Terence broke the silence beside her, saying firmly, "I don't agree with them being together."

Daisy, however, replied with a measured tone, "Jolie has made up her mind. That's why she chose to reveal their relationship tonight, in front of so many people. The Moore family knows now we can't easily intervene."

Terence's face remained grim. "I won't agree to it. When the time comes, we'll find a way to make them break up. I can tell Mr. Cooper is interested in her. We must seize this opportunity and make sure she ends up with him. Gavin is the best choice-not just for Jolie but for our family."

In the entire city, Gavin Cooper was unmatched. For the Quin family, and for Jolie, he was the only option worth considering.

In the past, they wouldn't have dared to entertain the thought. But with Gavin attending two consecutive Quin family events, their confidence soared.

Daisy nodded. "Alright, I'll speak to her."

Terence cast a cold glance at Jolie and lan, who were still standing together watching the fireworks, then let out a disdainful snort and turned to leave.Content © NôvelDrama.Org.

The fireworks show was

spectacular dazzling bursts of

color lighting up the night sky, captivating the hearts of those

watching. Yet Jolie only lingered for a short while before quietly

retreating to the ship's interior.

lan noticed her departure and followed, his brows furrowing slightly. "You seem upset. Did something happen? Can I help?"

Jolie shook her head. "Not for now, but maybe in the future."

lan gave her a reassuring smile. "Whenever you need me, I'll be here."

"I'm going to rest for a bit," Jolie said, her tone soft but firm.

"Alright," lan replied, watching her leave. His smile faded slowly, replaced by a pensive expression.

He had seen her earlier with Gavin-how they embraced and kissed. As a man, lan could clearly sense Gavin's possessiveness toward Jolie.

Was this what she was fighting

against? lan couldn't quite

understand. Why resist? For

someone like her, Gavin seemed like

the best possible choice. What

exactly wasn't she satisfied with?

Back in her cabin, Jolie found Dolly waiting for her.

Seeing her return, Dolly beamed with excitement. "I saw you two watching the fireworks together! I even snapped some pictures-they turned out so beautiful!"

She eagerly pulled out her phone, scrolled to the photos, and showed them to Jolie.

Jolie glanced at them. Dolly's photography skills were surprisingly good. The images were romantic and dreamlike, especially the shot capturing the two of them gazing at each other. The moment seemed frozen in time, filled with an unspoken tenderness.

"Send me the pictures," Jolie said suddenly. Dolly blinked in surprise, then grinned. "Of course!"
