Nearly two weeks passed in the blink of an eye, Apollo took care of her for a week until he had some urgent matters to take care of in the company so he had to leave."Mr Wyatt," Gasping for breath, Daniel hurriedly got in the elevator, he looked quite anxious as if there was bad news soon to be revealed.Apollo furrowed his brows as he asked, "What happened?""The warehouse in the Giant Perilla branch has been burnt." "What? How about the goods?" Apollo asked worriedly."Thankfully, the goods were not delivered back then so they are safe now but... But some of our staff got injured, they are sent to the hospital, they are in critical condition."Hearing him both Noah and Apollo looked at each other. Noah couldn't keep calm and contended out of anger, "Someone must want to warn us to not investigate the case anymore."Apollo clenched his fists and whacked his hand on the wall as he voiced, "They dare to do this. I will send them to hell as they wish."* Back to the mansion *Having h
"Boss, Mr Kobayashi has given the ownership of his company to someone suddenly.""What?"Daniel hurriedly turned on the tv, just like he reported earlier the newsfeed was full of Mr Kobayashi's news."Mr Kobayashi has been working with us for a long time, everyone knows him as a kind and loyal man. Rumours had it that his younger brother was notorious and a decisive man, who can go to great lengths to get what he wants." With a remorseful sigh, Noah voiced so."Yeah, I also heard that he killed his father so he could be the CEO of his father's company but it backfired him because he never knew that his father already had a will, and according to the will his older brother was the supposed CEO..." Daniel added."But it's strange that Mr Kobayashi has passed his position to a new person and especially when it's not his younger brother but a total stranger."Both Apollo and Noah seemed shocked. "What do you mean his younger brother is not the CEO, then who?""Well, It's Jennifer Knight
§ Sob §§ Sob §Handing her a tissue Isla nodded her head in understanding, "So, this is what happened.""I asked him for a reason but he said he couldn't give me any. He just admitted what he did.""Maybe there's more to the story that we don't know about? Should I call him? Maybe you two can..."Avery coughed and tossed the tissue on the ground. "No. You can't." After Apollo left, she waited for him in his office patiently hoping that he would be back but even when it was past five in the evening, he didn't show up. Later, his secretary told her that he was not going to be back so she had to leave.Angry at him, she went to see Isla. As soon as Isla got her call, she headed home to accompany her crying friend."Look at you, you miss him so much, are you sure you will manage to stay like this? You can't even stay away from him for a minute."Avery looked at her sadly, she flared her nose and asked, "Is it so obvious?""Babe, since you came you have locked yourself in this room and y
Rolling to the other side of the bed, she smiled like a fool. In her reverie, Avery was wandering around with a prince charming, though she couldn't see his face but his voice felt so familiar, just as she was about to see his face suddenly she fell and screamed."Ouch! My butt!" With a grumpy face, she hissed. Then she noticed it was hurting for real, she was not in her dreams anymore. Avery opened her eyes and was taken aback.In front of her standing was her handsome husband, he looked at her with a stern face."You. Why did you push me down?" She stood up and pointed her fingers towards him.Apollo smiled at her, he looked around arrogantly and casually sat on the bed, "If you have so many issues then you can just leave. Nobody asked you to stay here." With those words ending from his mouth, he showed her the door."You have taken everything away from me, you even want to kick me out now?""Well, you said it yourself. You don't want to stay with me anymore.""Mr Wyatt, you should
On her tiptoes she walked through the entrance, Avery peeked around carefully. It was past ten, she checked his schedule so she knew he wouldn't come back home tonight.Making sure that he was not present at home, Avery smirked. "Great, he is really not here. Now, I can go to my room without any problem."She was on the stairs and the lights were turned on all of a sudden, Avery bit her lips and looked at the man who was standing at the stairs as well, just some inches distant from her.She smiled cheekily at him and uttered, "You are here...", Trying to hide her luggage behind. She couldn't imagine how he would react if he saw her back with her luggage.Humiliating!"I saw someone packing her clothes and leaving, she said she would never come back again."Avery smiled through her gritted teeth, if not because of Jennifer's idea, she thought of doing exactly what she told him. He walked towards her with a menacing grin on his face."Didn't you leave already? What's wrong now? Couldn't
"Ava, it's late. We should go back. Get up please." Liam tried pulling her up, but she pulled the hem of his shirt and he ended up losing balance, falling on top of her.All those memories from the past when he was married to her hit him, he felt as if it was just yesterday when he met her. Liam couldn't help when his hand extended towards her without his noticing.He regretted that even for once he never touched her, he called himself a 'fool'."If I was not so stupid I wouldn't have lost everything, today you could be with me and I wouldn't be trapped because of someone else..."He looked at her intoxicated eyes and lost control over his emotions."Why must everyone hurt me? What did I ever do?" With puffy eyes, she stared at him when Liam leaned closed.He closed his eyes and mumbled, "I'm sorry, Ava. Forgive me for the sins I have done."Just when he was about to kiss her, a hand was placed on his lips that stopped him. He looked at the finger of Avery that was put on his lips."A
∆ The Next Day ∆Noah flat-out ran to the room, seeing him so panicked everyone looked at him.Avery gazed at him worriedly and asked, "What happened? Why do you look so worried?""You guys didn't see the news yet?"Both Avery and Apollo nodded their heads in denial and Noah quickly turned on the tv.The words on the news said indeed shocked them. "Wendy Lincoln is dead?"Noah reported with a nod, "Yes, she jumped from her house's building and died on the spot.""When did it happen?""At 3 am. She even left some suicidal notes that she was suffering from depression." Noah added.Avery had some words with Liam last night, he told her that he had something to tell her and he would tell her about it in the morning when they would meet again. But until now, she waited for his call but got none."Did the police find any trace?""No, there was nothing.""So it means the case will be closed soon."Avery looked sad. She remembered how Wendy behaved with her so trashy but still, she didn't wi
"Sorry, I can't let you get hurt. If anyone should get hurt then it's me, you must be safe and protect our kids. I love you, my husband." Placing a kiss on his forehead she smiled at sleepy Apollo for one last time.Getting in the car, she quickly checked the blue file that she took here with her. Her eyes glowed as she looked at the signature.∆ The Next Day ∆Avery was in the kitchen, making dishes when suddenly she felt her head spinning, she hissed and rubbed her head. Suddenly a hand reached around her waist and in a swift, she was taken in his arms.Widening her eyes, she smiled and hit his shoulder gently, "What are you doing? Put me down, I still have a dish to make ""We have chefs for that purpose." He added and only when they were in the bedroom, did he put her down on the bed.Avery looked around and tried getting up, but he pulled her back, sleeping next to her he wrapped his hand around her midsection.Avery could feel he was up to something. She raised her brows and lo
