Sister Ring James Avery Novels & Stories

”Hi, I'm Amber, James’s sister. She said holding out her hand with a big smile on her face showing her naturally white teeth. How the hell can a woman be this beautiful and kind at the same time? Seemed a bit unfair to this blabbing, tired, hungover sack of potatoes standing in front of her. I shook her hand and told her my name. ”Well Avery it's nice to meet you, I heard you're coming to dinner? Well, we will just get you fixed up, why don't you take a shower while I find a dress for you to wear?”

Then his gaze stopped at Avery. “You, you were with that girl. You’re sisters?” “Yes.” “Why did your sister do this?” Avery thought carefully. “The answer will upset you.” “Tell me. Please, everyone. Drink. Eat.” “Well, my sister was in love with the guy. She only cares about herself.” “So she’s selfish. What makes you so different? How can I trust that you will find my daughter? What makes you think you’re capable enough to help me?” He was targeting Avery in this. Trying to weaken her resolve.

Evelyn raised her brows slightly, glancing at my ring with complete indifference. “Married? To who? Some middle-aged woman? Look at how shabby you are. That ring has to be from the bargain bin at a dollar store. What? You think flashing it will jog my memory?” Before I could react, she shot up from the couch and yanked the ring off my finger. I was exhausted from days of work and didn’t manage to dodge in time. Cole stepped forward, examining the ring closely before bursting into laughter. “Evelyn, doesn’t this look just like the rings of Eternal Hearts your sister bid on in France three years ago? Don’t tell me the wife Jace’s talking about is your sister, Valerie Gates?”

I jerk my head towards the eatery. "You didn't call me," he says teasingly. "I'll call you, next time." Esther hikes the strap of her bag higher up. "Thanks, Esther." But he is looking at me, not Esther. "She wants to pick Krystal from school," Esther tells James then she turns to me and says, "I have always thought your brother had a...rare name." I smile. "Luc named him." We are walking to the car, James links his fingers in mine, I love the way he looks in an oversize tie and dye hoodie.

That, at least was something to avenge for. “Zoe.” She heard Avery’s voice in her thoughts and turned to see him standing by the door. Quickly, she slipped the ring into her middle finger, pretending to be admiring it. “It was given to me by my father.” She said, standing to her feet when Avery came to stand beside her. “I remembered it when I got home and decided to bring it with me.” “Why?” Avery asked, looking at the ring and her face carefully. “I don’t know.” She responded, looking into his eyes. “Maybe I brought it with me to remind me that not all men are liars.”

She almost screamed to vent her sadness over what happened to Avery. The only sibling she had had an accident and was lying in a coma. She remembered that at breakfast they were still joking at the dining table and talking about fun things. Avery was her biological older sister, her only support after her father died. Avery always protected her from her stepmother, who could sometimes be cruel. Avery was even responsible for running the company left behind by their father, which was almost bankrupt. Avery had been having difficulty finding investors. Their company couldn't be saved if they didn't get investors. And Avery had just signed a big deal with a rich man to save their company from c

Looking at her ring finger when Avery couldn't figure out what Jessy was thinking, Jessy asked her staring at her ring finger, "Where is your wedding ring? Eve." 'Wedding ring?' Avery bit her lips, she was so happy to see Jessy that she forgot that she had no ring. "I put it in my drawer. Yesterday while cooking, it got dirty that's why." Holding her ring finger she muttered. "Never take off your ring again. Ok?" Avery looked panicked a little and nodded her head in accord. "Ok, granny." After letting Jessy finally fall asleep, Avery let out a sigh. She stared at her ring finger, once she used to wear a ring on that finger but the name belonged to someone else and it was all fake.

He was a little taller than me and had a striking, handsome face. He squeezed my hand and I felt the light caress of his thumb as he looked down my body. Annoyance rose inside me and soon I saw Stanley put a hand on his shoulder. With that he released me and I waved to the woman beside him who returned a polite smile. "My pleasure. My name is Abell and this is my sister, Amelia." James extended his hand to shake them as well. " I'm James. " Abell shook his hand and soon it was Amelia's turn to do the same, but she took longer than usual to hold his hand. I saw their eyes fixed on each other.

People like Avery at places like this destroyed the very air they breathed. “Whose talking here? Did you just find your tongue right now?” Her eyes caught the sparkling diamond on Avery’s ring finger and her eyes turned green with jealousy. Even she has not been able to wear a ring as expensive as that so where did Avery get it? Even Avery’s long hair looked extremely beautiful as if she just had a hair transplant. “Where did you get that ring?”

One such person was his sister, Emma Valquez. Emma had always been a voice of reason in James’s tumultuous life. Where others were cowed by his towering presence and sharp words, she had a way of cutting through his defenses with equal parts empathy and brutal honesty. But even she wasn’t immune to the cold front James had adopted in his quest to locate Ava.
