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 aura that would not allow anyone to reject it. Flames of light flickered between his two fingers, and the look in his eyes as he stared at the tips of his fingers was so profound that it was terrifying.Trevor casually shrugged his shoulders with a look of nonchalance.In their circle, Trevor was the most unruly person. He never took women's or his feelings seriously.Trevor took another sip of his wine, and said with a cheeky smile, "Actually, Feliz didn't go to bed with me just to anger you, she has a really hot body, do you really not want to play?"Blake lay lazily on the sofa, frowning as he smoked. He did not want to continue this topic.Trevor laughed at himself for a while, and then his gaze suddenly stopped at the entrance of the pub, where he was being pestered by a drunk man.At this time, Blake squinted his phoenix eyes, his gaze landing on her."Go away!" Avery impatiently shouted, but the man's perverted hands still grabbed her. She then pressed down on his wrist, and with a skillful tug, a cracking sound could be heard, followed by the miserable shrieks of a man.When Avery was studying in the medical academy, she had treated the human body model as a toy; today, she fearlessly crashed it."Oh, I really didn't expect your wife to have such a trick up her sleeve. You haven't been defeated by her, have you?" Trevor laughed as he watched a good show.Blake stared at him coldly, then asked again, "Who is that man?""The second son of the Ruiz Family in the west of the city, Dominic Ruiz, is a carefree young master,” Trevor replied with a sarcastic tone.Blake replied indifferently, "I don't want to see this person again. You should know what to do, right?" After he said this sentence, he got up and walked in the direction of Avery.Trevor’s mocking laughter came from behind."Now he can’t resist it.”On the other side, Avery had not yet gotten rid of the entangled Dominic yet. He dragged her injured arm and cursed as she raised his hand to pull at Avery’s hair. Blake then suddenly appeared in front of him, blocking Dominic’s hand and pushing him away."Who the fuck dares to meddle in my business …" Dominic staggered two steps, and just as he raised his fist, he saw who it was and immediately shriveled up.In S city, there was no one who did not recognize Blake. Everyone knew that the Third Young Master Anderson was not to be trifled with.Blake’s cold gaze swept over Dominic and finally landed on Avery, "Let's go." A warm, dry palm wrapped around her small hand and pulled her away from the scene.He did not say another word, nor would he ask another. He had always been like this, observing everything with a cold and detached expression.The car entered the compound. Anderson Family Mansion was a simple three-story villa. It was built with green bricks and was covered in green climbing trees.This seemingly unremarkable small building was actually filled with more than half of the power and wealth of S city. The Andersons were a family of soldiers, and now that old man was serving as the field army commander, paying his respects to the general and managing a few significant military regions, it could be said that when old man Anderson stomped his feet, the entire S city would sway.When Butch Anderson was young, he married Eva. The two of them had three sons and a daughter, and he was the third oldest. There was a brother above him, a sister, and a younger brother who was studying abroad.Blake and Avery had just entered the big house when they noticed the atmosphere. An unexpected guest was sitting on the sofa in the living room — Angie Lopez.Blake’s gaze swept across her body casually, and his brows sunk a bit, "Where are they?" he asked gently.Tammy Anderson pointed upwards with her finger, and quarreling sounds would occasionally come from the study room upstairs."I'm sorry, I didn't expect this to happen.” Angie stood up and pursed her lips."Don't join in the fun when you know you shouldn't. What a disappointment." Tammy was a straightforward person.When Butch was young, he had a past with Angie’s mother, Audrey, and Eva had always minded this matter. All these years, whenever they quarreled, Audrey had almost always been the fuse that led to it. Today, Angie came to celebrate with a gift for the old man, causing Eva’s expression to immediately change.Tammy’s words made Angie extremely embarrassed. Her exquisite face alternated between red and white, as she looked at Blake, begging for help."It's not rare for parents to get into an argument, let me go up and take a look." Blake smiled warmly as he made his way to the study room upstairs.Not long after, the argument on the stairs really stopped. Blake accompanied his mother and walked down while laughing."In the end, Blake has a way." Tammy smiled and walked towards her mother."Who doesn't know that our parents love the third the most? Otherwise, they wouldn't have allowed the third born to take care of their arguments." Susana muttered in frustration."No one will treat you like a mute if you speak less." His husband, Jace Anderson, glared at her. He was still wearing the military uniform."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
The elevator stopped at the twelfth-floor maternity ward. Avery changed into a white coat and started to inspect the ward. When she passed by the door of Willa’s ward, a loud noise came from inside."When will I be able to leave the hospital? How long do you want me to stay in this damned place?""Miss Foster, you have to observe for a few more days before you can leave the hospital." The head nurse explained patiently."How much longer do I have to stay? Can you return my child? Or can it make my womb grow back?” Willa’s howls were also accompanied by the sound of porcelain shattering.Hearing that, Avery sighed helplessly, and then pushed open the door to the ward and walked in. "Sis, I hope that you can face reality. Although the child is gone, you still have one side of the fallopian tube and part of the womb for you to take care of. As a test tube baby, you still have hope of being a mother.""It's all bullshit, I don't want to hear it! You shameless devil, scram; I don't want to
