Chapter 383 The Expected Surprise

It was an expected surprise.

What she’d expected was finally realizing that Draven liked her.

What she hadn’t expected was that he had planned it for a long time. He had done it quietly. behind her back, with strong and careful moves. He had held it in for so long. That was clever. And yes, a little calculating.

Ayla pressed down the storm of feelings in her chest and asked, “Why didn’t you tell me back then?”

That set Kaleb off right away. “I thought you weren’t interested in Draven. If I told you he liked you, wouldn’t you start overthinking everything?”

“You misunderstand me way too much,” Ayla said.

“Misunderstand?” Kaleb laughed coldly. “That’s a joke. You’re already with him now. What did I misunderstand? Ayla, just admit it. You like guys like Troy, don’t you? Draven is the same type. He even looks like him. Did you just find a replacement and treat Draven as Troy 2.0

Even Ayla lost her temper. “That’s nonsense! Draven and Troy are nothing alike. Their personalities are complete opposites!”

“You just won’t admit it!”

Ayla said flatly, “I can tell you this. Draven is Troy’s half-brother.”

Kaleb thought he heard wrong. When the words finally sank in, he froze. “What? Say that again.”

“Draven is Troy’s brother,” Ayla repeated.

“You-”

“I’m with Draven now.”

Kaleb felt like his head was about to explode. Being together? He had guessed that part. But Draven being Troy’s actual brother?

His real brother.

Kaleb stared at Ayla, not knowing what expression to use. It all felt absurd.

She left Troy, then turned around and ended up with Troy’s brother. What kind of plot twist

Ayla waited for Kaleb to process it. She and Draven had agreed on two years together. This was only the beginning. There was still more than a year to go. If Kaleb knew the truth and couldn’t accept Draven, he would definitely make a scene. The partnership would fall apart. Kaleb was good at causing trouble, not helping. So she might as well let him know what was really going on.

But thinking about it made Ayla’s mind even more chaotic.

She honestly didn’t know when Draven started having feelings for her. She had noticed nothing at all.

For the past one or two months, her mind had been full of the divorce. All she could think about was Troy. After finally breaking free from him, she began focusing on her career and her future. She met new people and made new friends.

At the beginning, her connection with Draven was just boss and secretary. Only recently had there been signs that felt off.

Before that, Ayla had never once thought that Draven might like her. Not even for a second.

If Draven had the nerve to tell Kaleb the truth right after her divorce, Ayla might now suspect that the whole “fake relationship” plan had been planned on purpose. That thought did cross

her mind.

But Ayla thought fast.

None of this would have happened if Troy hadn’t gone crazy and kidnapped her. Once that line was crossed, her heart was never going back Troy had power and influence. If she faced him alone, she would lose. So working with someone just as powerful was the easiest solution.

Ayla could have fought back on her own, but that would mean wasting a huge amount of time and energy on trash people and trash problems. Her time mattered. Her life mattered. Only a fool would ignore a shortcut and choose the hard road instead.

Draven treated her well, and Ayla didn’t want to take advantage of him. That was why she let him choose something she could give back in return. That way, she wouldn’t feel guilty asking him for help when she needed it. That was how the idea of pretending to be a couple

came up.

Everything flowed naturally. There was almost nothing suspicious about it.

She had also seen how much Kayla cared about Draven’s love life. Since their mother-son relationship wasn’t close, it made sense for Draven to find someone to deal with that

pressure.
