Semua Bab He Cheated on me, So I Became His Aunt!: Bab 31 - Bab 40

Brittany made her way to the pair who were looking at her in mockery. Her eyes lost its gleam as she saw Ryan's eyes leaving hers. “You should have knocked—”“Don't even utter a single word, bitch. I'm not here to exchange words with you.” Brittany warned, throwing a mean gaze towards Ava. She turned to Ryan. “What the heck do you think you're doing, Ryan? You practically lit the whole company on fire as soon as you made her the CEO.”“And how does my decision concern you?”“This wasn't how we planned to gain control of this company. You changed your plans at the last minute because of her. Why?!”“Because she's my wife.” He simply responded.Ava in return showed off her ring sitting pretty on her finger.“I should have been—”“Not here, Brittany!” Ryan warned in a cold tone. His eyes narrowed down on hers. “Don't even think about it.”Brittany let out a chuckle. She caught the fear in his eyes even though it appeared for just a millisecond.“You haven't told her about us yet, have

The next morning.. Ava ate her breakfast in silence. Ryan didn't come back home last night and he didn't bother sending any messages too. She knew that her actions the previous day were responsible for his disappearance. Even Roland or the men who followed him didn't know a thing about his whereabouts. Her mind has been preoccupied with thoughts on how to face Matt and his mother all alone. Red and RR couldn't even go with her because they are supposed to be dead to Matt and Anna. And the men going with her were not so reliable. The dogs were faster and more agile. Plus Ryan has disappeared. “Ma’am you barely touched your meal.” The cook was forced to speak when he saw Ava rising to her feet. She offered him a tight smile. “I’ll grab something on my way to the office.” The morning drive was also quiet. Things were different without his presence. Ava tried calling Ryan once again but his line was still switched off and unreachable. She gave up trying and kept her phone

“Brother!”Anna and Greg's attention was pulled to the direction which the voice came from. The couple stood to their feet immediately at the arrival of the person they were all waiting for. There was a very broad and innocent grin on Philips lips. He held out his arms sideways urging for his older brother to come to him. Greg let out a sigh of relief. He walked in large strides to where his brother was standing and scooped the latter into his arms. The two shared a warm embrace. “It's good to see you again, brother.” Philip said, loosening his hold on Greg and giving him a light pat on his shoulder.He took a step back and tucked both hands into his pocket. “I left my house to come here as soon as Matt told me about everything.” Philip continued. His eyes dimmed and his face turned serious at once. “I'm here, what do you need me for?” He demanded right away. Greg inhaled deeply, he spared his wife a brief glance and after she gave him a go ahead signal by nodding, he returned

“Ava!” Ryan burst out of the elevator's doors as soon as it opened. His sharp eyes scanned the hallway in search of his men or hopefully Ava. Ava's guards weren't hard to spot, they were busy pacing around in front of a particular door. And at the sight of them, Ryan's pace fastened. He covered a large distance within seconds panting heavily. “What happened to my wife?!” He growled as soon as he got closer to them. He caught the head guard by his collar, yanking him closer. “You only had one fucking job!” “Boss—”Ryan pushed the latter back and made an attempt to go into the ward only to be held back by two of the guards. “Boss, you can't go in now, the doctor is attending to her—”“Let...go!” He muttered through clenched teeth, his gaze darkened and his jaw tightened. Stricken with fear, the men immediately let go of Ryan's arm and he made his way into the ward to see a doctor and two nurses standing before a bed. They turned to him in surprise. And Ryan was able to catch

~AVA~I haven't given so much thought on how I'll die but I didn't think death would be way closer than I had imagined or expected. Having escaped death the first time, I was given a second chance to live and death came around again.Now I've been given another chance to live. I escaped death for the second time in the same month. They say when death comes knocking, your whole life flashes before your eyes. Only one person came into view at that moment. Ryan. The thought of dying didn't sound appealing to me. I couldn't bear to leave him behind. He is the only one who cared for me. My body hurts badly, almost like I was hit by a boulder. The pain on my shoulder persisted and I could feel other burning bruises all over me. Luckily, I escaped with a few scratches and a dislocated shoulder.My eyes fluttered open as I stared at the ceiling. Squinting to get adjusted to the bright light in the room. I tried to lift my right hand only to feel the weight holding it back in place. I
