“Oh, I almost didn’t recognize you. So it's Miss Foster. Why, are you here? To see a doctor? Is it an infectious disease or a venereal disease?” Dina blocked in front of Avery and mocked and ridiculed Willa.
Willa’s expression immediately changed, pointing at Dina, she cursed, "Watch your mouth, who do you think you are? Isn't you the Gomez family's illegitimate daughter?”"An illegitimate daughter is better than you, a crappy bitch." Dina placed her hands on her hips, showing no fear.Dina was famous for her ferocity, so Willa was naturally not her match."You, you …" Willa was so angry that her entire body was trembling, but she could not utter a single word."Alright, Willa. Don't lower yourself to the same level as that shrew. Be careful of your fetus." The girl at the side tugged on Willa’s arm.Willa stroked her lengthy hair, her hand gently caressing her lower abdomen, as she boasted, "Avery, I forgot to tell you. I'm pregnant.”"Is that so? Congratulations,” Avery replied blandly, without a single ripple on her face. It was as if this was a trivial matter that had nothing to do with her.On the contrary, Willa was disappointed. She just wanted to see Avery’s desperate and pained appearance, but she couldn't find a single trace of similar emotions on her exquisite face. She could only stomp her feet in dissatisfaction.“Avery, have you not figured out that I am pregnant with Alex’s child?”Avery smiled, and replied in a neutral tone, “I hope so too." She took off her rubber gloves, tossed them into the trash can, and walked past them in the direction of the office."Pfft!" Dina could not help but burst out laughing. Avery had always been a quiet person, but you must not think that she was really easy to bully."Willa, don't be angry, we still need to do some inspections. Didn't you say that your lower abdomen has always been swollen and aching?” the girl beside her advised."I'm going home,” Willa said sulkily as she stepped on her high heels and left.Avery sat at her desk, earnestly writing down the surgical records, the tip of her pen hitting the white paper, making a soft rustling sound. A sudden ringtone suddenly broke her train of thought.She frowned and picked up the office phone on the table. She did not expect that it was her mother-in-law, Eva, who called."Mom?""Blake’s phone isn't in the service area, and since you turned your phone off too, I had to call your office."Avery was not surprised, since the day of her marriage, her mother-in-law was not satisfied with her. Before this, Eva already had a candidate for a daughter-in-law in her heart."I'm having an operation. Do you need anything?" Avery asked timidly."It's your dad's birthday today, so he doesn't want any big events. Come back for dinner tonight." After Eva finished speaking, she hung up the phone. She was not even stingy enough to say one more word.Avery looked at the phone that kept on beeping and laughing bitterly. Obviously, Eva couldn't contact her son and had no choice but to grab her to be a laborer.After hanging up, Avery dialed Blake’s number. If it really wasn't in the service area, she could only go to his company and try her luck.Avery drove her Beetle steadily on the road, and at the intersection of HH Road, waiting for the signal, she casually put her arm on the steering wheel. Her beautiful eyes slightly narrowed and stared fixedly at the giant signboard beside the road.It was an advertisement for a concert. A month later, the first concert was given by a famous national orchestra at the Royal Theatre. The woman in the huge poster was dressed in a black evening dress, noble and elegant. Behind her was a pure white grand piano. This woman was Angie, an internationally renowned pianist and former girlfriend of Blake. Her beauty and nobility could overshadow any woman who claimed to be beautiful.The corner of Avery’s mouth lifted into a self-deprecating smile. What qualifications did she have to be compared with Angie, compared to her, she was just an ugly duckling.An ear-piercing car whistle broke her imagination, only then did she realize that the signal light had already turned green, the car in front had already started to move, and the car behind her was anxiously rushing her, she quickly started the engine and started the car.Blake’s company was located in the most prosperous area of S City. There was a 22-story tall business building, which was only an office area, with a few factories located in the suburbs.She drove the car into the underground parking lot and took the private elevator directly to the 22nd-floor president's office. She was received by Jane, the secretary of the CEO. She was a smart and capable woman who was over thirty years old.Avery sat on the sofa in the lounge, the secretary brought over a cup of warm blue mountain coffee. She took a sip and asked, "Where's Blake?""Director Anderson is going to Nightless to discuss business matters with Boss Smith,” Jane answered truthfully."Thank you, then I'll be leaving first." Avery smiled, then picked up her bag and stood up. Talking about business and going to the Nightless city? Blake was really something.Jane sent Avery to the elevator and when they were waiting for the elevator, whispers came from behind them."Did you see that? That was the CEO's wife just now.""She's pretty young. She's quite compatible with our Boss.""Didn't you see that three years ago, when Anderson married her, it was a Grand wedding? I heard that it's Governor Foster’s daughter.”"If it wasn't for the Governor's daughter, Director Anderson wouldn't have married her. Sigh, this isn't an era that can be hurt like this."Jane’s palms were drenched in a cold sweat, and her eyes turned to look at Avery, only to see her expression did not change, as if she did not hear anything.The doors of the elevator opened and closed as she escorted Avery away. Jane turned around and growled at the crowd, "So idle talk! Don’t you have work? Mr. Anderson does not raise idle people.”Being yelled at like that, the 22nd floor immediately fell silent as they focused on their work one by one.Nightless, is the most luxurious bar in S city. It was a place filled with money.On a large leather sofa in a slightly dark corner, two men with extraordinary temperaments were seated.With one hand, Trevor Smith swirled the goblet while holding a woman with heavy makeup on the other arm. “Anderson, today is the birthday of your father, if you don't go home and be a filial son, what are you doing staying here with me?”Blake sat alone on the sofa at the side. His slender legs naturally crossed each other, and his handsome face was hidden in the darkness, giving off a strange oppressive feeling, as if this man was born to be a king.The phone on the table suddenly buzzed, and the screen lit up with the name 'Angie’.A trace of impatience appeared between his brows. The next moment, he grabbed the phone from the table and threw it into the goblet, letting out a crisp clink. He narrowed his eyes and watched as the red wine flooded the phone, gradually turning the glossy screen into darkness."You accompanied Angie for three years, and she finally started to force a marriage? You're not really going to get a divorce for her, are you? Your father-in-law is not someone to be trifled with.” At the side, Trevor spoke in a teasing tone."Don't worry about me, just mind yourself first. Hurry up and deal with Feliz’s matters, don't give me any trouble." Blake’s clear and low voice was filled with a domineering
"Mom, today is a happy day. Don't let others who aren't related to you feel awful. I'll accompany you for a few rounds."Tammy instructed the maids at home to set up the table, and she sit by the table with her mother in her arms. She was the eldest daughter, the one who had always been the best at coaxing Eva Anderson.Eva, Tammy, Susana, Jace, and her wife just happened to be sitting together at the table. Angie was placed elegantly at the side, gracefully sitting on the leather sofa in the living room."Avery, when do you and Blake plan to have children?" Eva touched her badge and said without any warning."Huh?" Avery’s thoughts could not keep up with the rhythm of the scenario."You’ve been married for three years, yet there's no progress. Isn't she working in the hospital? Since she's free, she's going to check if there's anything wrong with her body.""Oh,” Avery replied perfunctorily, she touched his card and without looking at it, she threw it out."Yes, Thirteen. Kill them a
It was a dark and gloomy day. At that time, he was waiting outside Angie’s house day and night, but there was no news of her. Then, after many years, on the day of his marriage with Avery, she returned with a body riddled with scars.Eva sat on the sofa with a cold expression. Tammy pulled the corner of his clothes and asked in a low voice, "What exactly happened to you two? Avery drove away. ""Which way did she go? I'll go find her. " Blake frowned, he picked up the car keys and ran out, completely ignoring his mother's complaints.The sky gradually darkened as neon lights flashed on both sides of the road. Blake’s car drove very fast, and finally found Avery’s little beetle at the end of the road. The car crashed into a tree branch, and the window of the car shattered. His heart was thumping hard, he stepped on the throttle and parked the car, then got off the car in a hurry to check.The door to the car was opened, but there was no one inside, while Avery was curled up, sitting un
"Avery?" At this moment, the man also saw her. The astonishment on his handsome face turned to sadness. He didn't expect that in order to avoid her, he would even switch to a different hospital.Three years, exactly three years. This was the first time Avery had appeared in front of him. Three years ago, she threw him a slap in the face and left. When they met again three years later, it was like this."Avery, you, are you alright?" Alex’s hoarse voice had a hint of a sob.Avery was silent, in the shadows, her lips curled up into a self-deprecating smile. Memories poured out of her mind like a tide, pressing down on her so hard she could barely breathe.That year, her dependent grandmother suddenly died. Then she overheard her mother and father talking, and her mother firmly opposed taking her home to raise her. She wanted her to perish on her own. This succession of attacks was undoubtedly fatal for a 17-year-old girl. Then, Avery carried her grandmother's burn and somehow stood on t
"It's too late. If we don't start the operation soon, she will die.""I don't agree,” Alex said firmly. He would rather become a murderer than let Avery get hurt again."If you don't sign the agreement, I will have the operation done. I will be responsible for any consequences." Avery passed him and entered the operating room."Avery!" Alex chased after her but was stopped by the nurse.“I’m sorry, sir. The patient's family members are not allowed inside. "Alex squatted on the ground in defeat, picked up the surgical confirmation letter, and signed his name without hesitation. He put his head in his hands, and the pain on his face intensified. This was the Avery Foster that he knew, so kind that it made others feel helpless.Avery spent the whole night in the office, looking exhausted. Dina pushed the door and walked in, bringing a cup of warm coffee in front of her, "Isn't the operation over? Why aren't you going home? ""Willa’s condition is still unstable, I can't leave." Avery ra
Avery’s eyes were filled with tears as her cold little hands were wrapped around his warm palm. She allowed him to lead her out of the room, but at this moment, the door was pushed open from the outside.Avery’s father was originally observing from outside and knew that something had happened to Willa."Avery, what's going on?" Jake Foster asked."Dad …" Seeing her father, the grievances in Avery’s heart gushed out. She choked with sobs, unable to say a single word."Dad!" Willa suddenly threw herself into Jake’s embrace and cried miserably. She trembled as she pointed her finger at Avery, staring at him fiercely as if she was the sinner who committed heinous crimes. “Dad, Avery was just jealous. She was jealous that I was pregnant with Alex’s child, so she took the opportunity to take away my child and even cut off my womb. Dad, I can't be a mother anymore. ""Dad, it's not like that …" Avery helplessly shook her head, her voice trembling as though she wanted to explain, but her voic
He deeply kissed her, her tenderness turning into ferocity. Her lips and tongue were entangled, and Avery felt that it was getting harder and harder to breathe. His hand gently caressed her face, but the warmth from his palm was still extremely hot.Blake was startled, and hurriedly let go of her."You’re having a fever.""Hmm, it might be because of the rain, but I'll be fine after a bit of sleep." She move his hand from her forehead but held it tight.Blake carried her into his bedroom and fed her the medicine while rummaging through the drawers. Lying on the soft bed, Avery quickly fell asleep. She kept holding onto his hand, probably because of a fever. Her little face was red, and her brow was slightly furrowed. She looked like a helpless little girl who had lost her sense of security.Blake sat by her bedside, staring at her with a smile on his face. His hand gently caressed her cheeks, "Don't be afraid.”The sleeping Avery turned her body over and over, as she moaned in a low t
Blake nodded politely, turned, and left. The door made a slight opening and closing sound.The moment he left, Angie, who was on top of the sickbed, opened her eyes. A hint of a ridiculing smile could be seen in her eyes."Mom, why is it that when a relationship is over, a man can turn around without any delay while a woman can't? Did he love me? Why am I the only one who was lonely right now?""Silly girl, don't think too much. If he doesn't love you, then he wouldn't have come to your side regardless of everything that happens to you.""Mom, no matter what the price is, I have to go back to Blake. I have to go back to him."When Blake drove the car back to the villa, the huge villa sunk into a deathly silence. He searched through the dozen or so rooms upstairs and downstairs but didn't find anyone at all. He immediately panicked.When he found Avery on the roof, she was sitting on the fence with her feet in the air. The morning sun dyed her lonely back red, but it could not warm tha
