A year and some months later Avery and Joyce graduated from college a year and four months ago. Anderson and Martin held a joint graduation party for their wives, inviting all their college friends. It was a successful party with all their friends and family in attendance. A month later, Avery began her post-graduate program with all seriousness. Anderson kept the pregnancy thing aside to make sure that she focused because he needed her to assist him directly at the company. That is, Avery worked and schooled together. It wasn’t easy but she and Anderson rubbed each other’s backs. She also perfected her driving skill a year ago, though she never used it much. Susan and Anderson visited every six months to see their grandson, using the opportunity to meet Avery and Anderson. Anderson ensured to visit his nephew twice a month. The boy was growing fast but was surprisingly calm. Sophia teased Anderson that his prediction was wrong but Anderson would tell her not to conclude until Nolan

“Honey, can we speak privately?” Avery asked in a hushed tone, whilst taking another glance at the woman at the doorway. The first time she saw her, it was night and she thought the woman was beautiful but now, with that above-the-knee pleated skirt she wore with a matching handbag and black blazer, she was a wow. Avery was semi-formally dressed because she wasn’t supposed to be in the office today but for some reason, she didn’t feel intimidated by the woman standing at the doorway. Aside from all the blinding beauty, that woman was empty inside, for which reason she was chasing a man she could not have. A man who was legally Avery’s. “Let’s take a fifteen minute break. My wife and I have a few things to discuss,” Anderson announced, stood up, and ushered Avery out of the conference room to his office. The HR manager got a chair for Yvonne, a little away from the conference table since she didn’t have the approval she needed. At Anderson’s office, Anderson’s tongue was rummaging fi

“Ander, I need your help.”Yvonne did not know where to start. With Anderson upset with her, she could not say directly that she wanted him back, putting it that way. Anderson had set a timer feeling upset by this arrangement Avery made. He just wanted to go back to the office, finish working on those documents on his desk and go home to make sweet love to his beautiful wife. The more time he spent here, the longer his stay would have to be in the office. He spat sarcastically,“That is the most interesting thing I heard today. With what? And how?”“For what Trent did to me. I need your help to expose him?” Yvonne explained, refusing to see the sarcasm and taking everything literally.“And why will I help you? Weren’t the two of you in love?” Anderson’s expression turned cold. For so many reasons he suspected Yvonne to be here, but this was not a part of it. Yvonne’s eyes turned glassy at how cold Anderson was towards her. Before, he was always wa

Yvonne had seen and heard it herself. Vida told her about how Anderson loved Avery and Avery had even told her that she was the reason why Anderson agreed to meet with her. Thinking through it, Avery was the one controlling Anderson. It did not seem that Anderson had gotten over Yvonne. It was just because of Avery. For some reason, he seemed afraid of offending her. “I already met Avery. She is just a small girl. Anderson is still in love with me. It’s just because he doesn’t want to offend Avery. If I had spoken to him alone, he would have realized it,” Yvonne said in mock satisfaction. Trent smiled but it did not reach his eyes. He said to her, “Let me tell you a story.” Yvonne shook her head with disapproval. It was already enough that she was able to see Trent and the fact that he was not after her life anymore. He also apologized and wanted to marry her but she did not want that. As such, she did not want to waste any more time with him since he was not ready to help her with

“Don’t defend blindly son, the woman in the video is your wife,” Andrew said after watching the video for the umpteenth time. Anderson was getting upset but could not blame his dad. Even he had believed it at first, except that he detected something. Something he did not expect anyone else to notice. He just could not explain it to his father because It was intimate. “No. That is not Avery,” he said firmly. When he saw the video and almost believed it was Avery, he already believed that she must have been drugged or something but still could not put a finger on the possibility. They have always been together, always in touch, and always communicating with each other’s movements. Also, Avery never showed any signs to show that she was cheating on him. “Ander, I understand that you are not in your right mind right now because it got into you but the video is trending fast,” Andrew said again from the end of the line. Anderson was disturbed. Someone was out to destr
