As Richard left the office, he flashed a smile at Avery, who struggled to hide her confusion. Just before she could utter a word, Felix granted her permission to enter the office.

There he was, seated at his table with a pile of paperwork in front of him. He seemed so immersed in his work that he was unaware of her presence, his rimmed glasses fixed at the bridge of his nose, and his expression very stern.

Avery couldn’t help but blush as Evan caught her staring at him. Instead of saying a word, he gestured, “Have a seat,” indicating the chair in front of him.

Noticing Avery’s gaze focused on his face once again, Evan subconsciously touched his face, wondering if he had something stuck on it. Feeling the glasses on his face, he took them off. “Everything okay?” he asked casually.

“There’s something that has been bothering me, and I want to talk to you about it. I’m sorry for showing up unannounced,” Avery replied.

“I noticed how quiet and distant you’ve been with me ever since you fou

    On their way home, Avery observed that Evan was oddly quiet, causing her to break the silence. “Is there something wrong?” she asked, concerned.“What were you and Ezra discussing?” Evan demanded as he took a quick glance at her before focusing his gaze back on the road.“So this is what all this is about?” Avery scoffed loudly.Evan looked confused. “What?”“Mr. Benson, you’re jealous just because you saw me and Ezra talking on the balcony earlier,” Avery said with a chuckle.This time, Evan didn’t deny it and remained silent, allowing Avery to have her moment. “He was just curious to know my relationship with Venessa, that’s all,” she added, taking his free hand.“I trust you, wifey. Until Venessa gets married, can you do me a favor and stay away from him?” Evan asked. Avery nodded vigorously, even though she didn’t quite understand the reason behind it.Suddenly, Evan’s car came to a halt, leaving Avery puzzled. He turned to face her, smiling. He leaned in and placed a gentle kiss

  • THE CEO'S HIGH SCHOOL SURROGATE   Engagement

    Avery and Evan arrived early at George's place for dinner to discuss Venessa’s upcoming engagement. As soon as they stepped into the grand living area, Avery asked about Vanessa, and she was immediately escorted to her room upstairs by the maid.The maid stood outside Vanessa's door. Avery nodded gratefully, saying, “Thank you,” with a soft smile.“It's my pleasure, ma'am,” she answered respectfully before taking her leave.Avery took a deep breath, then knocked on the door. Vanessa's voice responded from inside, and Avery finally opened it.“Avery, you're here!” Vanessa exclaimed excitedly as she pulled Avery into a tight hug.Avery was left speechless. She hadn't expected to see Vanessa in such a good mood. She couldn’t help but wonder if Vanessa was aware that everyone had gathered there to fix a date for her engagement with a total stranger.“Come, take a seat,” Vanessa said, pulling Avery and helping her onto the bed.As Avery recovered from the shock, she cleared her throat slig

  • THE CEO'S HIGH SCHOOL SURROGATE   I get it!

    Avery couldn’t believe her eyes as she froze mid-position in shock. “Max!” she slowly called out his name as they locked gazes.Lacy tapped her on the shoulder. “You should take a seat; the teacher has his eyes on you,” she whispered softly, kindly reminding her. Avery sat down immediately, avoiding drama on the very first day of school.As the class progressed, Avery could feel someone glance at her, and without bothering to turn around, she already knew who it was. All Avery wanted was for the class to end in the blink of an eye. Before she could get back to her senses, the teacher wrapped up and left, exactly as Avery had hoped.As she turned around, Maxwell was already standing in front of her. The classroom suddenly fell silent, as everyone wanted to see what would happen next.“Maxwell!” Avery called out as she got to her feet.“Let’s talk outside,” he whispered, close enough for only Avery to hear, before heading out of the classroom. Unfamiliar with her new environment, Avery

    Maxwell's red Lamborghini came to a halt at the parking area of Royal Blue Academy. None of the students seemed fazed by this sight; all the cars arriving and departing were equally fancy.As he got out, he knocked on the black Lamborghini parked next to his. The person inside wound down the tinted glass, revealing a light-skinned guy with a sharp jawline, ocean blue eyes, and blonde hair."Hey, kiddo! Welcome back from the slums!" he said as he got out of the car, his backpack slung over one shoulder.His royal blue pants were neatly ironed and paired with his white short-sleeved shirt and a white tie, the school's uniform for seniors."Cut it off, Steven!" Maxwell, also dressed in the same uniform as Steven, said as they began to walk into the magnificent building that stood tall before them.As Maxwell stepped into the hallway, memories from years ago flooded his mind—happy moments before his family fell apart, forcing him to transfer to Bright High. A nostalgic warmth spread throu

    Natalie picked up at the first ring, her anger evident on her face as she glared at Avery through the phone."I know I offended you, Nate. I'm deeply sorry," Avery apologised in a soft tone."What's going on, Avery? Why didn't you come to school? I heard rumours that you got expelled. Is it true or false?" Natalie asked.Avery licked her lips nervously. "I did get expelled. I was going to tell you, but I was just trying to process everything.""So what now? Our exams are coming up. Why would the school authorities do that to you?""Actually, the school wanted to conduct a pregnancy test on me to determine if I would get expelled or not. So I confessed to the principal about my pregnancy, and it led to my expulsion," she carefully explained."The school found out Valarie was the one behind the gossip queen xoxo account. Her posts had been violating the school rules and regulations, so Valarie got expelled."Avery was stunned and then quickly realized that Evan might be behind it as wel

  • THE CEO'S HIGH SCHOOL SURROGATE   Wifey I want you to feed me

    "Mr. Benson," Avery teased, her eyes crinkling at the corners as she burst into laughter, "are you jealous?"A rush of embarrassment heated Evan's cheeks, but he pressed on, unable to conceal the sting of his feelings. "I saw you feeding him at the shop the other day.""I was carried away," Avery said, her arms crossed over her chest. "I was eager for him to taste it. He took me out just to lift up my spirits after you had coldly turned me down in your car.""Tell me the truth," Evan demanded, his voice tight. "Did you know I was there, and you did all that to make me jealous?"Avery shook her head quickly, defending herself. "I didn't know. It was all a coincidence."Evan sighed loudly. "It might have been a coincidence, but it made me extremely jealous. The way he was staring at you made me want to punch him in the face," he confessed, and Avery's cheeks turned red."He's just a good friend of mine," Avery said shyly, a small giggle escaping her lips."I don't want him around you,"
