last update Last Updated: 2025-06-27 00:27:58

The next day, Ryan was hesitant to leave the house for work. He could not get himself proper rest the previous night. He had made a promise to his younger sister that he had no idea how in the world he was going to fulfill. He knew that to resolve the issue, he would have to meet with Ava to discuss this.

But would she even care to give him listening ears?

He was almost done dressing for work when Kristie walked in with her arms folded against her chest. He saw her through the mirror as he knitted his tie, but said nothing. If there was something he did not want, it was to drag any issue with her.

“Don't just stand there and look at me,” he said calmly. “If it's about the position you requested, I —”

Kristie cut him off before he could be done with the rest of the statement.

“Your sister is her to see you,” she said.

Ryan paused what he was doing and looked at her through the mirror.

“Molly?” He asked.

“Well, I don't think you have any other sister out there.”

“Hmm,”

    At Ava's house, Arnold was sitting alone when Ava came to join him by the pool side. He stole a glance at her and smiled mildly. “You should be resting,” he said. Ava crossed her legs and looked at him. “Why?” Arnold shrugged. “I don't know. I just feel so.” Ava said nothing for a while. She thought about what happened earlier during the day. Arnold wasted no time to punch Ryan. It felt more like he had been waiting for the slightest opportunity to do that. “Thank you,” she said finally. Arnold looked at her. “What are you thanking me for?” He asked, feigning ignorance. “For today,” she replied. “You were there for me today. And you tried to protect me.” Arnold smiled. He was happy that Ava was gradually beginning to look in his direction. It brought him a whole lot of relief. “Come on, Ava. You don't have to thank me for things like that. I did what I was supposed to do.” Ava smiled cheerfully. She could see that Arnold seemed to really care about her. Feeling safe around h

  • THE BILLIONAIRE HEIRESS:BETRAYED BY HER FIANCE,WANTED BY HIM   CHAPTER 67: TIRED OUT

    For the rest of that day, Ryan was no longer himself. He got back to his office in a worse state than he left. He could not explain why everything was turning out the way it did. Yes, he made the mistake of not holding on to Ava and following his father's bidding to marry Kristie. But then, he was not the worst man on earth. He worked hard for everything. He grew the family's business to greater heights. But then, all of a sudden, nothing was making sense. Everything was shaking right before his eyes. The most terrifying part of it all was the fact that no other person could see what he was seeing. This was not just about Ava's return as the new chairwoman of Avalon corp. Something else was going on. Something he could not explain. He called in his secretary, Sarah. “Sir, I'm here,” she said, watching her boss wallow in his pool of misery. Ryan heaved a sigh. “Please, go through these documents and do the needful.” “Okay, sir,” she said and grabbed the documents on the table. Sh

    A couple of moments later, Ryan sped into the parking area of Avalon corp and jumped out. Then, he ran as fast as he could to the elevator. His heart was beating faster than normal. He had no idea what he was supposed to do next. But somehow, he just wanted to stop Ava from taking all those people away from him. When the elevator clicked and stepped out, his entire body froze. It was already too late for him to do anything. It appeared the meeting was over before he could arrive. There were faces of the people that were once his people all over the place. “Mr Ryan Blake,” one of them called him and smiled. “Thank you for firing us. Now, my life will be dedicated to something good instead of working for your ungrateful family.” Ryan had nothing to say. He was not in the position to lay any sort of blame on anyone at all. Kristie brought this upon him. Sharon stepped out of the meeting room with Ava's handbag and some documents. On seeing Ryan, she approached him. “Good morning, Si

    Ava arrived at her office around a couple of minutes past 8am. Her secretary, Sharon, was on standby, waiting to carry her bag from her. Arnold got down and opened the door for her. “Thank you, honey,” she said with a smile on her face. “Are you sure you don't need me to be there while you speak with them?” Arnold asked. “I don't mind speaking to them on your behalf. This could be—” “Shhhh,” Ava said casually with a smile on her face while using her index finger to shut Arnold up. “Don't worry about me. This is not going to be a big deal. You can trust me on that.”Arnold grasped her hands gently. “I'm only being concerned here. I understand these guys probably have a sort of resentment against Blake Haven group. But I don't know if it'll be that easy to have them on your side.” Ava smiled at him. “This is Avalon corp, not just any business group out there. I need to go now.” Arnold held her shoulders firmly and landed a soft kiss on her forehead before leaving. Ava turned her a

    It felt like the rest of the talk about his love for her got slapped back into his throat. He definitely wasn't expecting Ava to bring up the talk about what's going on in Blake Haven. “What?” He asked. Ava rolled her eyes and pushed her hair over her ear. “Come on, Arnold,” Ava said. “You know what I'm talking about. I can understand if you don't have any information yet on the case. But I do need to get my hands on something as quickly as possible.” Without giving him a chance to even respond, she turned to the car. “We should be on the move right now,” she said. They both got in and the car began to move. Arnold processed his words carefully in his head. Then, he suddenly pretended to have received a phone call. After a while of faking a listening attention, he said, “Okay,” to the inexistent caller. Then, he slid the phone back into his pocket. Ava looked at him. He was not saying anything about what she had requested earlier on. “What…was that about?” She asked. Arnold

    When it was night, Ryan arrived at his father's house. He parked the car and stormed into the house while his father was having dinner. “Father,” he called. “What have you done?” Mr Blake didn't even look at him. He simply took a paper roll and dabbed it over his lips. Then, he got up and turned to Ryan. “You have not greeted me, son,” the man said casually. Ryan was not in the mood for any long talks. He needed to know and understand what was going on. “Good evening, father,” he said hurriedly. “But I doubt there is anything good about the evening.” His father looked at him, but said nothing immediately. The man walked past him and got to the living room where he sat down. “And why is that so? Is there a problem?” Ryan was trying so hard to hold down the frustration and anger that he was feeling at the moment. He joined his father and sat down. “What has happened in the business?” He queried. “I spoke with Kristie and she told me that you knew about the move that she made.
