View MoreAfter speaking, Avery paused for a few seconds. Seeing that he remained silent, she turned around and started to walk away. A loud honk blared from behind. Avery frowned and quickened her pace. Before long, Harry's car pulled up in front of her. He got out and walked up to her. Blocking her path, he looked down at her stubborn face and said, "Get in the car!"It was early in the morning, and the area around the dormitory was bustling with people. The both of them standing there was not a good sight. Avery held back her temper and asked him, "What exactly do you want?" "I have something to ask you!""Can't you ask me here? Why do I need to get in the car?"Harry was momentarily at a loss for words. He stopped insisting, but stared into her eyes and asked, "Did he stay the night here yesterday?" Avery was taken aback, knowing he meant Eason. Not wanting to cause Eason trouble, she denied it. "No.""No?" I waited downstairs all night and didn't see him leave! It wasn't until
Avery was making her bed when she heard Eason ask, "Do you have a cup?"She turned around and saw him standing at the bathroom door. He had asked with an earnest expression as he held his toothbrush. She got up, walked over to him, and grabbed her own cup off the shelf. Rinsing it a few times under the tap, she told him, "You can use mine if you don't mind.""Thanks." Eason took it and filled it with water. He then started brushing his teeth. It was as if it was just another day for him. Avery stood at the door. When she saw his mouth touch her cup, her heart skipped a beat. It suddenly occurred to her that he didn't have a towel, so she pointed at a pink towel hanging nearby. "That's my face towel." "Okay." Eason nodded and looked at her through the mirror, a happy smile tugging at his lips. Avery quickly looked away and went back to making her bed. But for some reason, her heart was pounding like crazy.After brushing his teeth, Eason washed the cup thoroughly. For the
"Avery, Avery, is that your new boyfriend? He's so handsome!""Oh my God, Avery! Where did you find such a man? He's unbelievably good-looking!""He's not only good-looking, he's such a sweet man too. If he went to our school, he'd blow everyone away!" "Avery, you have such a talent for finding boyfriends! Each man is more handsome and charming than the last. You're so lucky!" Avery's head buzzed from the noise, but she caught a few important words. "Boyfriend?"Right then, the door opened again, and Eason walked in with breakfast. Instantly, more than 10 pairs of eyes turned to him. The earlier clamor died down, and the room fell silent enough to hear a pin drop. They all watched as Eason calmly walked over and placed breakfast on Avery's table. "I brought you breakfast. You should eat something light.""Wow!" The ladies exclaimed as they beamed at Eason. Avery felt embarrassed. "Let me introduce you. This is Mr. Lavigne who works at my company."The ladies were enthus
Xavier didn't respond and continued driving in silence. Ten minutes later, the car came to a stop in front of Eason's villa.Xavier opened the door for Summer. "Ms. Hall, please get down." Summer took a look at the villa outside and turned crimson in anger. "I asked you to take me to Acadia College. Did you not hear me? Are you going against me on purpose?""I'm sorry, Ms. Hall. I only follow Mr. Lavigne's orders." Xavier remained indifferent the entire time, not falling for Summer's tactics. Summer was helpless and got off. However, she immediately called for another ride. "It's alright if you won't take me! I'll get there myself! I'm going to see for myself if Mr. Lavigne is at Acadia Collage with Avery!"Xavier froze for a moment before saying, "Ms. Hall, I'd advise you not to go at this time. Mr. Lavigne won't want to see you now.""I'm his girlfriend. I have every right to see him! Xavier, you're merely an assistant. Can you really stop me?" Summer, usually polite with X
Eason sighed. "I told you, we're all adults here. Everyone should take responsibility for their actions, myself included."Eason was merely making amends for his mistake regarding Summer, nothing else. Avery blinked in surprise, "You make mistakes too, Mr. Lavigne?" "Of course I do. I'm just an ordinary human. How could I not make mistakes?"His gaze made her heart race, and she felt embarrassed. "I'm sorry, Mr. Lavigne. I seem to always cause you trouble."Eason raised an eyebrow. "To be honest, I really hate trouble."Avery fell silent. Was he saying she was a nuisance? But then he smiled and continued, "But for some reason, when it's your trouble, I don't mind it at all." Avery looked down as she clutched the covers, unsure of what to say.Eason's mood improved after seeing the faint blush appear on her pale face. He chuckled. "Don't overthink it. I just like to speak directly. I don't mean anything else—it's just the truth."Avery blushed even harder.With the heater
"Mr. Lavigne, please believe me. I didn't do it on purpose!" Wendy cried pitifully.However, Eason didn't even glance at her. His eyes were fixed on Avery's pale face. "Xavier, you know what to do.""Yes, Mr. Lavigne," Xavier answered. He then turned to Wendy. "Ms. Sawyer, please follow us."Harry's pupils constricted when he realized Eason was going to deal with this matter formally. He was about to speak when Wendy cried out."Mr. Lavigne, you can't do this to me! I was just following orders from Ms. Hall! If you take me in, she will be implicated too!"As Wendy spoke, she took out her phone and opened her chat history. "Ms. Hall sent me this message. I was only following her orders to get on her good side. I have nothing to do with this!" Xavier took her phone from her and looked at it. It was indeed Summer's number. Wendy: "Ms. Hall, I live in the same dorm as Avery does. If you need anything, just let me know! I'll get it done."Summer: "Is that so? Then make her disap
With that, Edith didn't pay Harry any more attention and turned to Xavier. "Avery needs someone with her right now. I need to take care of something downstairs.""Alright, Ms. Johnson." Xavier nodded politely. Once Edith left, Xavier and Harry entered the room. Since the heater was on, the room was quite warm. Eason had taken off his coat and draped it over a chair. He was now bent over Avery, with one hand supporting the back of her head as he fed her water. Hearing a noise, he glanced back briefly. His gaze swept across Harry's, but he didn't flinch. Harry walked over to them and noticed Avery's pale complexion. He frowned. "What happened to her?"It was Xavier who answered. "Wendy locked her in the bathroom and switched on the air conditioner to make her freeze to death. Luckily we came to check on her because she wasn't answering her phone. "If she had been locked in all night, the consequences would have been unimaginable."Even a few hours in there would have frozen
"What should we do? Should we take her to the hospital?" Edith felt sorry for Avery.Avery shook her head. "N-No, that won't be necessary. I s-should be fine after a-a while under the c-covers."She then turned to Eason. "M-Mr. Lavigne, w-what are you d-doing here?""I was worried about you," Eason said, his voice softening as he looked at her. "I was worried you might attempt something reckless, even though it doesn't seem like you. I never thought…""A-Attempt something reckless?" Avery was puzzled. "I d-didn't do anything like that.""Then why would you lock yourself in the bathroom and turn down the temperature?" Eason said with a frown and a tone full of reproach. Nobody knew if he was mad at Avery or himself. Avery bit her lip. "I-It was W-Wendy.""Wendy? She did this?" Edith frowned, feeling indignant on Avery's behalf. "I knew there was more to that woman. Stealing your boyfriend was bad enough, but to go this far? She's truly malicious."Eason's brows furrowed deepe
Xavier stifled a laugh. He knew talented and handsome young men like Eason were popular, but this was the first time he'd seen someone be so direct about it. He wondered how Eason would respond. Eason shot him a glance and replied to Edith nonchalantly, "Thank you for the kind offer, but I already have a girlfriend." "Oh?" Edith couldn't mask her disappointment. Slightly embarrassed, she said, "Sorry about that…""It's fine." Eason then pushed Xavier forward and continued, "My assistant here is still single. You could try your luck with him if you think he's a good match." Edith's disappointment vanished, and she perked up, eyeing Xavier up and down with renewed interest. Even though Xavier's presence wasn't as impressive as Eason's, he was still good-looking and appeared to be a mature man. The more she looked at him, the more she found him appealing. "Young man, since your boss has spoken, how about I set you up with someone?"Xavier was left speechless. The three of t
