When Alex returned from recording the statement, it was already evening. He told the police the truth and did not shield Willa.When he returned to the room Avery was in, Dina was currently feeding her a bowl of soup. On the other side, Avery was sitting on the bed."Why does this soup have a strange taste?" Avery frowned slightly as she shook her head to reject the spoon that Dina offered to her again."Oh, I put some ginseng in the chicken soup.""Dina, are you confused? Pregnant women are not allowed to eat ginseng, it will lead to exhaustion, aggravate the pregnant reaction, and cause edema and high blood pressure. Your godmother is really incompetent, she wants to kill us, baby. " Avery's lips curved into a faint arc.Her joke made Dina's eyes water. She sobbed with her head down and replied in a choked voice, "I… I'll pay attention to this next time …""My baby said she'll forgive you this time. There won't be a next time." Avery smiled playfully, and got off the bed while dragg
But as medical personnel, Avery and Dina naturally recognized her. That was a woman's placenta after her miscarriage."Throw that thing away," Dina anxiously shouted.However, before she could finish her sentence, a shrill scream pierced the pitch-black night. Avery held her head with both hands, and painfully closed her eyes, "Ah …""Avery, don't be afraid. That's not Little Avery, that's not your child." Dina was at a loss of what to do, she held her in her embrace, and consoled her non-stop, but then, Avery's body shrunk into a ball, and trembled violently.After the abortion, those things had already been taken care of. Just that, who could be so crazy as to send such a thing to provoke Avery at such a time?Alex quickly picked up the things in his hands, pushed open the door, and chased after them. However, he stood at the entrance of the hospital, the surroundings were completely silent, there was not even a shadow of the express delivery car.After that night, Avery's entire bo
After Eva’s death, when Esme was arranging her sister's inheritance, she discovered that many years ago, all of the assets under Eva’s name had already been transferred over to Blake. After some investigation, she found out that when they registered for the wedding, Blake had actually passed on all their assets to Avery. That huge amount of assets was enough for them to rank on the Forbes List. She really didn't know what the woman had done to Blake.However, it was simply a fantasy for her to want to take that money away from Anderson’s Family.After Avery listened to her so-called conditions, the smile on her face became even more sarcastic. Originally, the reason why she kept circling around was still for money, those things that she doesn’t bring along, she doesn’t take with her even if she dies.Avery didn't understand why they would place such high importance on it."Give me time to think about it.""Of course." Esme laughed and replied, "However, the second trial is coming soon
"Maybe. Yes," he replied softly."Really? You’re not lying to me?” Angie looked at him with a misty look."Yes." Blake nodded again and pursed his resolute lips. However, there is no point in saying this now. Because there were no ifs in life. The truth was that he had met Avery, fallen in love with her, and from then on, he would never again be able to live without her.A quick ringtone interrupted his thoughts, causing Blake to pick up the phone, "All right, I understand…" He said a few simple words and hung up."Anj, I still have some things to take care of. Take care of yourself. I'll be back with you tomorrow.""Okay." Angie nodded obediently, her small hands still holding onto his clothes. "Blake, I don't want to be sent to a mental hospital, please don't let them sue me, okay? I really didn't do it on purpose. I just couldn't help myself.”His words were filled with a grievance, and Blake couldn't help but be moved, "Don't worry, with me here, no one will be able to harm you."
In the eastern sky, a rising star appeared. Avery bit her lips and stubbornly wiped away the tears on her face. She knew that it was time to face reality.Avery made Dina complete the discharge procedures and then went to the coffee shop where she had agreed to meet with Esme alone.Because of the traffic jam on the road, Esme was a few minutes late. When she walked into the coffee shop, Avery was already seated near the window. With one hand on her cheeks and the other hand lightly looking out, she sat there like an elegant, static oil painting."I've been waiting for a long time."Esme sat down opposite her. “One cup of Blue Mountain, thank you,” she said to the waitress."A cup of green tea," Avery said indifferently.The waiter was slightly taken aback, as very few people would order a cup of tea in a coffee shop.When the green tea was placed in front of Avery, within the transparent tea cup, tender green leaves floated in the air, looking very much like a little girl in front of
Blake's words were naturally filled with grievance, but looking at Avery who looked like she wanted to cry but had no tears, he was already somewhat regretful.But before he could say anything to redeem himself, Avery's divorce agreement was already opened in front of him."I don't want to pursue the past anymore. Since you want the shares so badly, I'll leave it to you. Sign it.” She even had a pen ready for him.Blake was so angry that his head spun, he grabbed the divorce agreement and quickly flipped through a few pages.Avery would rather go out clean than stay by his side. He was really decisive. Since that was the case, he would grant her wish.But, why is his hand holding the pen trembling slightly, he couldn't put down the words after a long time.“Avery, have you ever loved me? Even if it was just a tiny bit?”Avery clenched her fists tightly, her nails digging into the tender flesh of her palms, yet feeling no pain at all. "Just what kind of patience do I need in order to s
As for those reporters, he had indeed been the one to arrange them. Since everything that should not have happened had happened, regardless of whether she accepted it or not, he would still be responsible for her.At that time, her parents did not think highly of this marriage. Firstly, they had already decided in their hearts, and secondly, Avery was young. At that time, Blake had put down the words that she would not be able to marry Avery.To show his sincerity, he had the lawyer settle all the assets and transfer them to Avery. It could be said that the amount was astronomical, but when she signed the agreement, she did not even look at it. She immediately flipped to the last page and signed her name.She was always so dismissive of everything he gave her, but three years later today, she came to question him about the insignificant shares. It was as ironic as it could be.The sound of someone knocking on the door rang out. Blake looked in the direction of the door with a clear an
The night was quiet. Within the villa on the mountain.Avery sat on the leather sofa in the living room alone. Her surroundings were empty and quiet.After marrying for three years, the number of days she had lived with Blake could be counted on one hand. He sometimes spent a whole day with her on the eighth, but most of the time he looked through the financial statements while she sat beside him, holding a medical book. When he was at home, Avery would cook personally. Her cooking skills were not good, but he was never picky.Avery pressed her hand to her forehead, her eyes shut, her expression showing pain. No matter how hard she racked her brains, their memories of each other were pitifully small. The only sweet time was not long after their marriage. That day, Blake drank some wine and was slightly drunk, half kneeling at her feet, his expression serious and focused, her voice low and hoarse. He said, "Avery, give me a baby, I will definitely love her, love her, and cherish her fo
