Divorce me I'm done serving you (Ayla) novel Chapter 662

"Thank you," Ayla said at last.

She had been working nonstop lately. She needed the energy, so she picked up her fork and kept eating.

After rejecting him, she didn't act awkward. She didn't avoid him or pretend they could never meet again. She simply continued her meal as usual.

As a friend, Max was hard to beat. He truly liked Floyd and Esme. With a gentleman like him around, the twins would grow up happy.

Right now, Ayla pushed aside her personal feelings. The twins mattered more.

Before Ayla started dating Draven, Max had planned how to pursue her. First, get close. Then confess.

Why that order? Because Max feared rejection. He hoped that when he confessed, they would already be close enough for it to be the final step before dating.

Max rarely rejected anyone. Saying no could hurt people, and he hated doing that.

Having experienced rejection himself, he came to the realization that it wasn't as dreadful as he had initially thought.

Still, he doesn't feel good about this.

At that moment, Max almost admired Troy. Troy had been rejected coldly many times, but he never gave up.

What kind of confidence did that take? Part of it was Troy's nature. But there was another reason.

Troy had once received Ayla's unconditional love. A man who had received such deep love carried a certain confidence.

Max hadn't expected a miracle. Still, he needed a little time to recover.

So, he sat there and watched Ayla eat.

Before this, they had rarely talked properly. Now that they were chatting more, Max realized something clearly. Ayla was exactly the kind of woman he liked. She was smart and sharp. She understood everything around her. During her three-year marriage, many people thought she was foolish. But Ayla had always known exactly what she was doing.

Their personalities matched well too.

Her rejection had been graceful. She gave clear reasons, comforted him, and stayed to finish the meal so he wouldn't lost his pride.

Max could feel her strength, her kindness, and her quiet tolerance.

Troy had enjoyed that warmth for three whole years and never valued it. Sometimes people suffer simply because they deserve it.
