Unveiling the Genius Behind the Divorcee Chapter 186
Chapter 186 Ryker is Her Man
The event organizer finished displaying all the exhibits, and Ryker hurriedly stepped down from the
stage, changed his clothes, and rushed over with a chocolate cake he had ordered in advance. “Aylin, I
left in such a hurry earlier that I didn’t have time to give this to you. Here, you must be hungry after
sitting for so long, right?”
Ryker sat back down next to Aylin, smiling sweetly, “I ordered this from your favorite place outside.
Give it a try.”
Aylin was touched by his actions, “You’re so thoughtful.”
“What’s the big deal? If you like it, I’ll buy it for you every day.”
Ryker leaned in slightly, and the two chatted casually as if no one else was around, creating a
harmonious and content atmosphere. “Aylin has spent so much money on me; doing these things is the
least I can do to repay her.”
Aylin looked at his downcast expression, which resembled a big golden retriever, and couldn’t help but
touch it gently, “This necklace is indeed beautiful, I like it too, and besides, you deserve these.
You work diligently and have achieved success in your career, which brings me great comfort.”
The two of them were chatting away, completely oblivious to Gavyn’s sullen expression nearby.
Gavyn’s jaw was clenched tightly.
Waylon happily slapped his thigh and sent another message.

He wrote: [Fine, he took my spot, and now I have to watch them being all lovey-dovey up close. Tsk,
just look at this. You didn’t want her back then, but now another man is holding her in the palm of his
hand.]
Gavyn’s face darkened, his chest heaving with each breath. He immediately shot Waylon a sharp
glance and gritted his teeth, mouthing, “Shut up!”
He can see!
The exhibition in the main hall was in full swing.
Aylin and Ryker sat close together, their proximity allowing them to appreciate and critique the exquisite
art pieces on display. Both of them possessed exceptional artistic skills, which made their shared
experience even more enjoyable.
The model displayed a stunning and transparent natural aquamarine bracelet on her wrist. Aylin took a
moment to carefully examine it before turning to Ryker to speak.
“This string of beads has a nice color, but they’re a bit far apart, so it’s hard to tell the quality. If there’s
cotton, the price could be lowered a bit.”
Aylin’s voice wasn’t very loud, and the sound of the host introducing the exhibits echoed throughout the
venue.
Ryker leaned in closer to hear more clearly, “Indeed, but it also depends on the region it’s from. Such
things don’t hold their value well. If the quality and origin aren’t good, It’s easy to get an
inflated price.”
From another person, especially Gavyn’s point of view.
What I saw was Ryker grinning from ear to ear, getting close to Aylin and acting affectionate. They
whispered to each other, almost as if they were rubbing their ears together.
Gavyn took Waylon’s seat, and not a single person around dared to speak to him.
He wasn’t in the mood to talk to anyone.
So, his attention was entirely focused on Aylin.
Gavyn’s face grew darker and darker as he watched the woman daring to ignore him. Even though he
was sitting right beside her, she turned her head and laughed merrily with another man!
Displeasure instantly filled his heart, but Gavyn didn’t ponder where this annoyance came from. He
immediately tapped his wine glass and scoffed, “Does the pretty boy even understand gemstones?”
His voice was neither too loud nor too soft, landing perfectly in Aylin and Ryker’s ears. The words he
spoke made no attempt to hide the embarrassment he intended to cause Ryker.
In the modeling industry, there are indeed many who try to gain fame and fortune by associating
themselves with influential people. However, Ryker and Aylin have always maintained their integrity
and never crossed any boundaries.
Gavyn’s words undoubtedly labeled Aylin with a despicable tag, something Ryker absolutely
couldn’t tolerate.
He showed no fear and sat up straight, looking directly at Gavyn. “I’m not sure if Mr. Delacruz has
heard this saying before but it says that straight foot is not afraid of a crooked shadow, and those with
dirty hearts see everything as dirty.”
Gavyn took a light sip of red wine, seemingly having anticipated Ryker’s response. A cold smile
played on his lips, “I didn’t say who it was, you don’t need to take it personally.”
After speaking, he cast a stern glance. Having been in business for many years and holding a high
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmposition, he had long cultivated an imposing presence without showing anger.
In the end, Ryker was kind-hearted. In his anger and anxiety, he was momentarily at a loss for
words.
After a brief pause, he said, “I didn’t mention any names, but Mr. Delacruz took it upon himself,

didn’t he? Some people really should mind their own business.”
Gavyn put down his wine glass, his voice calm and steady, but his face expressionless. Jealousy
surged within him, and the words that came out were naturally unpleasant. “Models are no
different from the objects in a display window, that’s why they’re gawked at and scrutinized. On the
runway, they’re just like exhibits, subject to people’s judgment and evaluation.”
Ryker couldn’t stand others insulting his profession like this, and in a moment of anger, he blurted
out, “You-!”
“Ryker.”
Aylin pressed his shoulder gently, comforting him, “Don’t say anymore.”
Seeing Ryker’s deflated appearance, Gavyn felt much more at ease. He straightened his clothes and
his eyebrows relaxed.
However, in the next moment, his heart felt even more suffocated than before.
Aylin simply couldn’t bear to see Ryker being wronged. She glanced sideways, her cold almond eyes
filled with chill as she looked at Gavyn. “Mr. Delacruz, this is a public pláce. If you want to go crazy,
don’t do it here and embarrass yourself!
‘Also, Ryker is my man. If you have any issues with him, come talk to me directly! What’s the point of
being passive-aggressive?”
