Avery's voice was firm but controlled as she looked Mrs. Anderson straight in the eye. "I'm afraid I cannot sign this contract, and I suggest you never bring up such a proposition again. You should never forget your place, Mrs. Anderson."Mrs. Anderson's expression changed from confidence to shock in a matter of seconds. Her eyes widened, and her mouth opened slightly as if she couldn't believe what she was hearing. She seemed to be thinking, "But Avery is my former daughter-in-law, she always agreed with me in the past, why is she refusing now?"Avery's words hung in the air like a challenge, and Mrs. Anderson felt a surge of surprise and even embarrassment. She had expected Avery to agree readily, given their past relationship and the fact that Mrs. Anderson had always gotten her way. But now, Avery was standing up to her, and it was clear that she wouldn't back down.Mrs. Anderson's face reddened slightly, and she struggled to find her composure. "Avery, dear, I...I don't understan

Stephen stormed out of the party, his anger and frustration boiling over after the confrontation with Shane. He couldn't believe Shane's audacity, asking for his sister in exchange for help with Avery.As he exited the hotel, Stephen's phone buzzed with a text from Shane: "Can't help you with Avery, Stephen. She's not someone to be trifled with. But I'm still interested in Jane..."Stephen's grip on his phone tightened, his mind racing with ways to get back at Shane. He knew he had to protect his sister from Shane's clutches. Imbecile was more determined than ever to find another way to convince Avery to let him lead the project.He hailed a taxi and headed home, his thoughts consumed by the encounter with Shane. He knew he had to come up with a new plan, and fast before Shane caused any more trouble.As he arrived at his apartment, Stephen's mind was already racing with ideas, determined to outsmart Shane and get what he wanted without sacrificing his sister's well-being. The night h

Avery's voice barely above a whisper, she asked, "What is it you really want, Shane?"Shane's eyes hung in the air, boring into hers, as if trying to see into her very soul. Avery felt a shiver run down her spine, her whole body trembling under his intense gaze. It was as if time had stopped, and all that existed was the two of them, locked in a silent understanding.Then, Shane blinked, and his eyes seemed to refocus. "Does Father know about your husband?" he asked, his voice low and husky.Avery's hands flew to his mouth, her fingers pressing against his lips. "Shh, don't let anyone hear you," she whispered urgently.Shane chuckled, a low, throaty sound that sent vibrations through Avery's body. As she looked up into his eyes, she felt a jolt of electricity run through her veins. Their bodies were touching now, her hands still pressed against his mouth, his chest inches from hers.Avery's heart raced, her pulse pounding in her ears. She felt like she was drowning in Shane's gaze lik

Stephen leaned back in his chair, crossing his arms as he watched Avery approach. They were seated at one of the city’s most exclusive private lounges, a place Stephen had chosen for their meeting. It had once been a place they frequented together, back when they were married and everything seemed… simpler. Now, it was just a stark reminder of how much had changed between them.Avery didn’t bother with pleasantries as she sat down across from him. Her eyes were sharp, her movements precise. Stephen could see the determination in her expression, and it unsettled him more than he would admit.“You said you wanted to talk,” Stephen began, his voice calm but wary. “What’s this all about?”Avery placed her hands on the table, leaning forward slightly. “The joint project between Star Technologies and Elite Technologies,” she said, her voice cold and businesslike. “I want you to step down from it.”Stephen blinked in surprise, a short laugh escaping his lips. “Step down? Avery, you can’t be

Avery stood in front of Shane’s room, hesitating as her hand hovered above the door. The earlier confrontation with their father replayed in her mind, and she couldn’t shake the guilt that lingered. She had to try to make things right, to understand why Shane had acted the way he did. He was angry, that much was clear, but there was something deeper—something that needed to be brought to the surface.She took a deep breath and knocked softly on the door.At first, there was no response. But after a few moments, she heard shuffling from inside. The door creaked open slightly, revealing Shane’s disheveled figure. His eyes were still bloodshot, his face twisted with a mixture of exhaustion and lingering anger.“What do you want?” he asked, his voice gruff.Avery swallowed her nerves and met his gaze. “I just want to talk, Shane. Please.”He hesitated, staring at her for a long moment before stepping back and allowing her inside. The room was dimly lit, the curtains drawn tightly against
