Anderson said that he had a surprise for his wife and it was beyond her imagination. He was bent on wiping from her mind, anything that reminded her of Trent. “I thought they were just windows,” Avery said in astonishment, upon realizing that the room was far bigger than she thought and things weren’t as they seemed.“That is what I wanted you to think so it worked,” Anderson said softly and beckoned the four people dressed in a suit, a little away from the candle-lit dinner. Red lights brightened above the table full of dishes with decorated candles positioned at strategic places as soon as the as the four people, two women, and two men began to play the violin. The effect was amazing, Avery looked on dreamily till she heard the familiar deep voice which now broadened her smile. “Shall we?”Anderson asked Avery and she realized he was asking her to dance with him. How could she refuse when he had put in so much to make her happy? When their hands joined and their bodies collided gent

The waitress was confused. “Sir, is there a problem?” She asked politely but the coldness in Anderson’s tone and the fury in his eyes was enough to shut her up. Even Avery was scared when she looked at how frightened the waitress was before hastening away.“Honey, what is the problem?” She placed her hand on his and asked. Anderson turned to her, and his gaze softened. “Don’t worry. I will take care of it.”Avery was not convinced. “You can still tell me,” she persisted.Anderson didn’t know how to explain without ruining the surprise but seeing her disturbed look was making it worse, so he decided to explain. He was still upset but his voice and gaze were soft when he spoke to her. “I just don’t like it when my plans are ruined.”Was that even an explanation? Avery didn’t understand what he meant. “Honey, I still don’t…”“Please excuse me, I need to use the ladies’ room,” Riley said, stood up, and left without waiting for anyone to stop her. She had seen the chef coming and quickly l

A ding sound was heard and the door of the elevator parted. Anderson was still carrying Avery in his arms when they entered the room and he instantly switched on the light.“Now let me down,” Avery whined and this time, he granted her wish, dropping her gently.“So what is the condition?” She asked again, just as she saw the dessert trolley in the middle of the bedroom displaying all kinds of desserts with a huge roll of cotton candy. Avery would have been very happy if not for seeing Anderson with Riley so she turned away from the attractive site and said coldly to him, “I don’t want desserts anymore.”Anderson was still upset so he didn’t try to coax her. He began undressing and hissed, “fine. Good night then.”He was going to the washroom when Avery crossed him with speed. “You still haven’t given me the condition.”Anderson was unbuttoning his shirt and thought to tease her a little. “You can start by helping me to unbutton my shirt,” he shrugged.Avery squinted her brow. Maybe he

Anderson would be damned before he allowed Trent to see Avery any time soon. Not when her heart was torn in two. Without alighting from the car, he cupped her cheeks in the palm of his hands and said, “Love, I think we should go to the office together. We are still on our honeymoon so I don’t want to be away from you.”His words seemed so honest that Avery’s heart warmed. She didn’t want to be alone too but didn’t know how to tell him without being clingy. Joyce had told her before that men respected independent women. At the thought, she suddenly wondered why she began to care so much about what he thought about her but it didn’t stop her from being honest.“I didn’t want to be alone too but I thought you needed space.”Anderson was stunned. Before, she was looking for ways to be away from him but now, why didn't she want to leave his side anymore, especially when they were back? Why wouldn't she plan to take the opportunity to find Trent since she’d be alone? He could already feel th

Anderson turned around and his expression was indifferent as he asked, “Why should I tell what I do with my wife to an outsider like you?” Internally, he was very happy but couldn’t let anyone know. Trent was in pain and it was greatly visible on his face. Yes. For every pain, trauma, and heartbreak he caused Anderson, the latter was going to make him pay sevenfold.Trent watched as Anderson left with Avery still in his arms. She had not spoken to him and only spoke to Anderson. This was strange and Trent couldn’t take it. He turned to Martin and asked,“Please tell me, what did he do to her?”Martin’s expression turned cold as he responded coldly in return, “maybe it’s the same thing you did to Bernice. Are you ready to talk about it?” Martin didn't blame Anderson so much for his behavior. He wasn't like this before. When he was with Bernice, he was very lively until their painful breakup. The pain was what turned him into the cold person he was. Martin thought that Anderson even l
