Chapter 5

"Dad, it's alright." Alena Wright was afraid that Alfred Gray would really call and scold Waylon Gray, so she lied, "I wanted to work because I was bored at home. It wasn't because I didn't have money. Dad, Waylon and I had decided to get a divorce. However, that matter is not his fault, it is my problem, so please don't scold him."

Alfred Gray immediately frowned as he heard Alena Wright's words and he said very strongly, "Divorce? Amanda, what's happening? I promised your mother that I will take good care of you. As long as I am alive, you will be the young lady of the Gray family, and nothing can change that. I don't object if you want to go to work, but marriage is not a child's play. How can you file a divorce casually? If Waylon had done something wrong, tell me and I'll help him."

Alena Wright had bitten her lip, and she did not know what to say. She and Waylon Gray had already signed a divorce agreement.

Alena Wright took a deep breath and she had no choice but to say, "Dad, I had talked to him. Please, let us settle the matter between the two of us. Don't worry about it."

"Well, if you say so." Then Alfred Gray gently compromised, "Go back to the old house with me today, I will call Waylon again. We will have a meal together."

Alena Wright felt nervous when she heard Alfred Gray's plan.

It was impossible to hide from Waylon Gray, how could she move forward?

So, she immediately said, "Dad, I just worked over-night last night, and I was really tired. Can you let me rest? I promise that I will accompany you another day?"

Alfred Gray's father was reluctant, but he still understood what she had said, so he could only say, "If that's the case, then how about this Sunday? Go home and have a meal with me. What do you think?"

"Okay," Alena Wright had no choice but to agree.

She could only hope that she would not meet Waylon Gray there.

After Alena Wright made an appointment with Alfred Gray, she had refused his offer to send her home, so she watched as Alfred Gray's car leave.

Alena Wright exhaled impatiently as she saw that Alfred Gray's car had not completely left because of the traffic. When she was just about to turn around and leave, loud noise had caught her attention.

A red Ferrari stopped in front of her.

Alena Wright was taken aback as she looked at the car in front of her.

Then, the door of the car slowly opened, and the man inside walked out slowly.

The man was tall and his physique was slender. He had wide shoulders and a narrow waist. He looked like he could be a model with his height and his face. His face was god-like, and his charming and mesmerizing. It was as if it was made of a vast galaxy. However, there was an evil smile on his face, and he looked dangerous despite his irresistible face.

Alena Wright's face changed slightly, the person who had come out of the car was actually, Waylon Gray.

"Why are you here?" Alena Wright suddenly turned to look in the direction to where Alfred Gray's car was and she had confirmed that he was still stuck in heavy traffic. Fortunately, Waylon Gray was not able to meet his father while he was still in front of her.

Waylon Gray looked at Alena Wright. His face seemed to be impassive as he slightly raised his eyebrows, "What are you looking at?"

"Nothing..." Alena Wright immediately took a step forward and she stood in front of Waylon Gray because was afraid that Alfred Gray would saw them. Alfred Gray's car was still parked in the heavy traffic and he was not far from them at all.

Waylon Gray should not discover that his father was just nearby. Otherwise, she would definitely die in embarrassment.

However, because of her limited height, Waylon Gray was able to look in the direction where his father's car was.

"That car!"

Waylon Gray squinted his eyes as he looked at the car of his father that hadn't gone far. He could recognize the car at a glance. His father would always drive that car wherever he went.

But, why has his father appeared near the Cohen Group Company?

Alena Wright watched as Waylon Gray watched his father's car. She was nervous and there was a cold sweat on her forehead. Alena Wright couldn't help but distract Waylon Gray, "Mr. Gray, if it's okay, then I'll leave first."

After she finished speaking, Alena Wright immediately planned to leave.

Seeing his ex-husband was too tormenting for her.

However, as Alena Wright just turned around, and before she could even take two steps, her arms were grabbed by a big hand.

"Where are you going? Did I say that you can go?" Waylon Gray's deep voice came from behind her.

"What are you doing? Let go of me!" Alena Wright felt her arm was being pulled by Waylon Gray. Her skin felt as if it was electrified. It was as if her arms had caught fire.

Waylon Gray saw that Alena Wright was about to leave, and he didn't bother to investigate further as to why his father's car had appeared nearby.

With his strength, he was able to pull the struggling Alena Wright into his arms, he hugged her tightly, and said, "My dear, I warn you, you better stay safe. Otherwise, I can't guarantee that you can keep working here."

As Alena Wright heard Waylon Gray's warning, she suddenly stiffened.

"President Gray, what do you want to do?" She stared at Waylon Gray with a confused expression on her face. She had already decided to let him go. Why did he need to provoke her?

"What did you think about what I said last night?" Waylon Gray said as he stared intently at Alena Wright. "I am very interested in you. Be my woman!"

"What the hell?" Alena Wright had suddenly become angry, "I've already told you, it's impossible!"

She didn't want to have anything to do with Waylon Gray at all.

"I like going for the most challenging things the most. There is no woman in this world that I can't conquer, remember that!" Waylon Gray said mockingly.

"Mr. Gray, don't be too arrogant. There is always come a time that you will not get what you want," Alena Wright said irritably.

At that time, Waylon Gray didn't recognize her as Mrs. Gray, who had been his wife for three years.

Waylon Gray was about to say something else, but then his cell phone rang.

He immediately took it out to see who called and he saw that it was his father.

Alena Wright noticed that Waylon Gray was distracted, so she immediately took the opportunity to quickly stop a car on the side of the road and ran away.

Waylon Gray stood there as he watched Alena Wright's retreating back. After that, an evil-looking smile had appeared in the corners of his mouth.

Well, that woman had succeeded in provoking him and he had planned to conquer her.

There was no woman in this world that Waylon Gray couldn't conquer.

And he badly wanted to win that woman over.

Waylon Gray answered the phone, and on the other end of the line came a very angry voice, "What have you done? What did you do to make Amanda angry? When I went to see her earlier, she told me that she wanted to divorce you! Go and apologize to her immediately and coax her back. There's no way you can get a divorce!"

Alfred Gray had promised Alena Wright that he will not be angry, but he couldn't help to be angry now that he saw Waylon Gray. If Waylon Gray would dare to lose his Amanda, he would definitely kill that stinky boy.

As Waylon Gray heard those words from Alfred Gray, his eyes had suddenly become gloomy and a trace of sarcasm had flashed through his pupils.

But that was what Amanda Quinston wanted, right?

She was the one who wanted to divorce him last time, and now that he finally gave her what she wanted, his father wanted him to apologize.

That bitch was really disgusting.

"Why won't you allow it? If she wanted a divorce, then a divorce is fine," Waylon Gray said with a cold smile.

"Waylon Gray, you have grown up, but you have become hard-headed. You won't even listen to me. If you don't want to piss me off, then go and coax Amanda," Alfred Gray ordered. "This Sunday, I had asked Amanda to go back to the old house for dinner. You must also come back and take this opportunity to coax Amanda. You have to treat her well, and not annoy her anymore."

After he finished speaking, he no longer gave Waylon Gray the opportunity to argue as he hung up the phone.

Waylon Gray heard a ticking sound coming from the other end of the line and his face had turned extremely gloomy that he almost smashed the phone because of anger.

He just saw his father's car, and he had told him that he had met Amanda Quinston. Was that bitch working around there?

Waylon Gray suddenly sneered as he took out his mobile phone and he called his assistant Bill Clay, "Help me find out which company Amanda Quinston works for."

Bill Clay immediately said, "Yes, I will check it immediately."

"Amanda, I will find you!" Waylon Gray's expression said and his expression was very dark.

He didn't love that woman in the first place, but he still married her because his father had pretended to be sick to force him into marriage. After the marriage, he originally wanted to keep her so he could play with her. Besides, that marriage was never his idea.
