Lady Warrior's Warth on Divorce Day novel Chapter 71

Chapter 71

Zoya rushed between the two fighting men, swiftly blocking both their punches,

Upon seeing Zoya rush in, both men involuntarily lowered their fists and abruptly halted.

“What are you two doing?” Zoya asked.

As soon as she stepped out, she saw Wren and Harvey fighting, and it was clear they weren’t holding back.

Eowyn ran over, grabbed her, and asked, “I should be asking you. What were you doing rushing in there?

Are you out of your mind? They were fighting so fiercely. What if their punches hurt you when you rushed in?”

Though her tone was scolding, it was filled with genuine concern.

Zoya said, “Since I went in, I’m capable of protecting myself and won’t get hurt.”

Even if Wren and Harvey didn’t stop in time, she could handle it.

“Alright, no matter what, your safety must come first!” Eowyn said seriously.

She only hoped Zoya was safe and sound.

“Got it,” Zoya replied, “By the way, why did they start fighting?”

“They…

Before Eowyn could answer, Harvey interjected, “I heard Mr. Richmond is good at fighting. I just wanted to spar with him.”

“Spar?” Zoya looked suspiciously at Harvey.

Harvey’s eyes flickered guiltily. He then said, “Where are you going, Zoya? I’ll take you.”

“She’s coming back to the villa with me,” Wren interjected.

Harvey frowned in displeasure.

Zoya said, “Yes, I am Mr. Richmond’s bodyguard now, so I need to return to the villa with him.”

Upon hearing this, Harvey pressed his lips together and said, “I will be staying in Marabotara for a few more days. Call me whenever you’re free. I still have a lot I want to tell you.”

“Okay, Zoya replied, and then got into the car with Wren.

The car slowly drove away. Harvey stared coldly at the car and thought, ‘If Wren is not toying with Zoya, then is he serious?

If he is being serious…

He recalled his mother’s past warnings to him. “It’s best not to provoke the Richmond family. Once they become serious, they might not give up until they die.”

At that time, he said indifferently, “Mom, you must be exaggerating.”

“That’s because you haven’t dealt with the Richmond family. The Richmond family members all have a bit of a crazy gene.

Provoking them will be very troublesome.”

His mother’s words still echoed in his cars.

But now, he had no choice but to provoke the Richmond family.

He didn’t know what Wren was up to, but he wouldn’t let Wren harm Zoya, nor would he lose Zoya again.

Inside the car, Wren looked at Zoya. “Do you really believe Harvey and I were just sparring?”

“No,” Zoya replied directly.

“Aren’t you going to ask what it was about?” he said.

“If you want to tell me, you will. If you don’t, asking won’t help. However…”

Zoya paused. “I told you not to harm Harvey. Otherwise, I won’t let you off!”

Wren’s eyes flickered. “What if he harms me then?”

“You have so many bodyguards,” Zoya said, “He doesn’t have the ability to get past all of them to harm you, Mr. Richmond.”

Wren lowered his gaze slightly and thought, ‘Some kinds of harm are simply beyond a bodyguard’s protection.’

“Do you dislike calling me by my name that much?” he said abruptly.

She paused. “Wren.”

She called his name as he wished. “Don’t hurt Harvey. I don’t want to be enemies with you in the future.”

His eyelashes trembled slightly, and a faint bitterness seemed to spread at the corners of his lips.

He thought, ‘Why do I have this feeling? It seems that I care about her more and more now!

“Okay, I won’t hurt Harvey,” he said softly, his eyes slowly lifting to gaze at her, “Because I don’t want to be enemies with you.”

Just the thought of being enemies with her made him extremely uncomfortable.

In fact, his instincts told him that if that were truly the case, he would regret it for the rest of his life.

At Ranard City

Jasmine was released from the detention center.

Nicolas and Darren Vaughan came to pick her up.

As soon as they got in the car, Darren said, “Jasmine, you have no idea how busy Nicolas has been these past few days taking care of your matters.

“He’s barely had any sleep. They say adversity reveals true affection, and isn’t this proof of it!”

“That’s enough, Darren. Stop talking!” Nicolas scolded.

Darren said, “What’s wrong? Are you shy now? Speaking of which, I bet Jasmine ended up in detention because of Zoya.

“Zoya must have incited the military personnel to call the police, just to get Jasmine into trouble.”

Jasmine already hated Zoya in her heart. As soon as she heard Darren say this, she immediately snorted coldly, “I despise people who resort to such petty tricks the most.

“If Zoya was dissatisfied with me, she could have confronted me openly. I can’t believe she resorted to such despicable methods.”

This detention made Jasmine absolutely detest Zoya.

Initially, she was humiliated by Zoya at the airport, and she thought that was the worst misfortune. But unexpectedly, she was even detained afterward.

This detention would be recorded in her file.

It made her realize that even if she could keep her position as a co-pilot, she would never be able to advance further.

Zoya had completely ruined her career.

Darren said sarcastically, “How could Zoya compare to you, Jasmine? She’s such a despicable and cunning person.

“Relying on her parents being martyrs, she schemes against you like this. Does she really think that if she ruins you, Nicolas will get back together with her?”

“Darren, you have said enough!” Nicolas sharply reprimanded.

Darren said discontentedly, “You’ve already divorced Zoya, do you still need to pretend to protect her? She’s not your wife anymore.

“Besides, you haven’t forgotten the press conference you held for the divorce and how much she humiliated you, right?”

Nicolas’s chest tightened.

He thought, ‘I was humiliated at the press conference simply because I brought it upon myself!’

“Zoya is not the kind of despicable person who would scheme against or frame others,” Nicolas said with some difficulty.

No matter what, thinking back carefully to the three years he was married to Zoya, she had never actually schemed against

him.

On the contrary, he took Zoya’s efforts for granted, never thinking of reciprocating her contributions.

“What’s wrong with you? You’re actually defending Zoya,” Darren said strangely.

A flicker of unease flashed in Jasmine’s eyes. In the past, Nicolas would not have cared about Zoya at all, but now his attitude

had taken a turn.

She thought, ‘Did he change his perception of Zoya? No, that is impossible!’

She comforted herself in her heart.

The car arrived at a restaurant. Nicolas had already reserved a private room.

Upon arriving at the private room, Nicolas took off his suit jacket, casually placed it aside, and his phone suddenly rang.

“I’ll take a call,” he said, picked up his phone, and walked out of the private room.

Jasmine picked up Nicolas’s suit jacket, intending to hang it on the nearby coat rack, but as the jacket tilted, something rolled out of the suit pocket.

Jasmine picked them up and saw two rings that looked like they came from thrift stores.

She thought. When did Nicolas get these kinds of rings?

Just then, Nicolas walked into the private room. When he saw the two rings in Jasmine’s hand, his expression suddenly changed.

He rushed forward and snatched the rings back from Jasmine’s hand.

Nicolas said, “How dare you touch these two rings?”
