Jeffery’s POVI clutched my fist to suppress the jealousy burning down my spine.I stared at the sight before me as a waiter led them to their table which was directly opposite ours.I continued to stare as the man pushed a chair out for Avery to sit, she gave him a sweet smile before she sat down.Who was this guy and what was Avery doing with him, I thought to myself. I had to keep reminding myself that Avery wasn’t mine any longer.Danielle clears her throat and I turn my head in her direction, I had completely forgotten that we were together.“Is everything alright?” She asked “Yes,” I replied quickly, “how is the new fashion line coming along?" I asked, trying to get my mind off Avery and the man.“Oh, everything is falling into place, if all things work out we should be launching in the next two weeks," she said as her eyes shone with excitement.Danielle owned a fashion brand that was really thriving, she had released many successful fashion lines and was about to launch the n

Avery's POVIt had really been an eventful week I thought to myself, I was grateful the rest of the week had passed uneventfully. I was sure I had my fair share of dramas. The universe must be playing a dirty joke on me, I thought to myself. I couldn’t stop thinking about my clash with Danielle. She claimed I ruined her life when in truth, she ruined mine. I couldn't bring myself to blame her completely, cause I knew the majority of the blame belonged to Jeffrey. Her anger should be directed at him, not me. I wanted absolutely nothing to do with him.I had to go shopping, I had to stop at the store to get some toys for the twins. I brought out a pair of jeans and a polo shirt to put on. I loved days like this when I had to put on simple and comfortable clothing just like before. I was just about to head out of the house when Daniel ran toward me crying at the top of his lungs.“Oh honey, what’s the matter," I asked, stooping low to his level to look at his face, all red and blotchy

Avery's POVIt was a bright Monday morning, as I got to the company, I stood for a few minutes admiring the magnificent Jason's company before going up to my office. The Jason company stood in all its glory, a seven-story building with about twenty-nine offices. The company was my grandfather’s pride, his father before him had started the company before handing it over to him. It would have been handed over to my father if he hadn't died early. Now the burden of continuing the legacy of this great company was resting on my shoulders, I couldn’t let my grandfather down.I got to my office where a folder was waiting for my signature. I had recently passed a proposal for an expansion of our New York office. Unfortunately, some of the workers we had hired over the last month had either resigned or stopped coming to the office. I couldn’t help but wonder what the issue was, a lot of money had been put into this expansion project and I couldn’t let it fail.The office phone rings. I p

Avery's POVI stared at Tobias as if he had magically become an Alien, at that moment he looked really weird. I struggled to process what was happening, I looked around me to see various staff and other people staring at us, their faces flashing brightly in anticipation. “Avery...” Tobias called, I turned to face him again, as I saw the worry on his face.Tobias had always been here for me so there shouldn't be any need to think about his proposal, I thought to myself but I couldn’t move. I just stood there frozen to the ground, it felt like someone had poured cement over my feet, planting me on the ground.“Avery, will you marry me?” Tobias repeated as I noticed beads of sweat forming on his forehead, he was going into full panic mode. He didn’t deserve to be made a spectacle of, in the presence of this many people. So I did the only logical thing that crossed my mind.“Yes, I’ll marry you, Toby," I said as I brought out my hand so he could slide the ring over my finger. Which for s
