His cheeks was almost covering his eyes, seeing Avery around just made his day.He thought she wasn't going to come but she did and he's happy about that.John decided to apologize.“Sorry about that. Our car broke down on our way here, so I call ICT cars to deliver a brand-new car immediately, you know I don't like borrowing”“Wow, brother John, you're still the same. Which of the cars did you get? tell us which of the car” Lawrence said curiously.John's smile increased as he gazed at Avery with dead eyes.“I decided to manage the Mercedes-Benz S580 Maybach.” “Wow, Brother John, you are still so damn rich just as usual. You bought a Mercedes-Benz S580 so easily. I know someone here hasn't seen the car before; she brought a rented car just to to a gathering like this, it seems her husband didn't have enough money to buy her a car then she went to rent a car just to show off.”At that moment all of them started laughing again. They all hate Avery; they just couldn't accept that she
Avery at that moment knew what John was trying to do, but Avery knows she wouldn't be able to buy a meal for everyone; she doesn't have enough money either. She was about say something when Sarah said.“ I thought I heard your husband said he's fully loaded so why are you keeping quiet now”At that moment Avery mouth moved before she could think.“I could've taken us to the diamond room, but I have forgotten the manager's number.”They looked at Avery in disgust. Everybody knows, Avery and her husband were penniless; they barely fed; they won't have called them for this year's get-together; but planned to laugh at them.“Avery, your liar, you dare talk trash with your fetid mouth.”John beams when Avery says that. He finally got Avery where he wanted her.“Avery, you have the manager's number!”Avery nods. Avery was shocked; she didn't understand why she said such words, her mouth move quicker than she could think.She knows the manager and Jeremy told her he has the manager numbe
His words shake the room. Alex and the others shivered. they couldn't believe the manager was apologizing to Avery. This is not true. The staff's face squeezed immediately, and she walked past the beefy men. She knows the manager has mistaken the beggar for another person. Avery saw she was coming. then she stretched her hand forward. The manager looked in the direction Avery was pointing at.“This lady says she hasn't seen me before! She even insulted me called me all kinds of name, she even wanted to us the security guard on me.”At that moment the manager's eyebrows were pushed down. He roars while still kneeling. “Get this wrecked woman out of here! Are you insane? Do you know who she is? you're damn useless so useless”His words vibrate everybody's legs. A strong aura was pulling everybody's shoulders down none of them dare say anything. Before the lady could speak out, the closest man close to her grabbed her and before she could move to understand what is going on the
Kelly was frightened. How can Avery be so powerful? Avery, that her family wasn't that rich or connected back then, she can't even afford a luxury meal not to mention good dress back then. Alex was still in shock; she didn't understand what was happening. Everything seemed like a movie to her, but it was damn real Avery is really something else. The manager turns to Avery, and he notices all his friends are hiding behind her.which he doesn't like.with a low voice he said.“Hey, don't be scared! If Mrs Avery is with you, then you don't have any problem don't be scared.”They bow their heads in shame as they relieved the hide behind Avery without damn noticing. How can the manager be praising somebody? They were all taunting. Avery faced them; her beaming face was irritating to them.Some of them immediately adjusted themselves and slowly left Avery back.“Do we have a problem? Why are you hiding behind me? Remember, we are here for the class get together not trying to use me as c
Avery left Dex hotel with her face full of smile, everything she didn't inside she enjoyed them all.next time none of them would dare talk nonsense towards her or Jeremy again.She decided to go home and tell Jeremy about everything that happened.“ thank Goodness I believed him when he said he knew the manager of Dex hotel, I thought he was kidding but, I was wrong and everything went on smoothly, beyond what I had even expected”Avery murmured to herself as she opened her car door.However on the other hand Jeremy wasn't don't he has clearly instructed Jefferson to bring each and everyone of Avery friends to him.Jeremy at that moment was worried. He doesn't want Avery to get home and he and Mia are not at home; he knows how worried she can be, and this isn't the kind of things he wants her to see. He clearly ordered on of Jefferson men to look after Mia on the order room he doesn't want her to see or hear what he's going to do them.“ I can't allow some fools to threaten my fami
All of them started to gaze around when they saw light; however, they didn't know where they were.Their hearts skipped when they saw Jeremy seated in front of them. They couldn't believe it was the poor bastard doing all of this; the bastard made them go through all of this pain just because he belongs to a gang now.They all remember Alex and the rest all remember Jeffrey face, and remember he's Avery husband,the good for nothing bastard.John was absolutely furious, and his anger boiled over as he shouted.“So you're the bastard who kidnapped us! Who do you think you are, taking us like this? How dare you! Let us go right now, and I promise I'll pretend as if none of this ever happened. But if you don't, you'll regret it.”Kelly at that moment looked to his right when his eyes caught Lawrence kneeling close to him.He immediately had a flashback, remembering what they did many years ago to almost make Jeremy lose his scholarship on his school. Kelly's girlfriend was used to set
Jeremy pulled out his phone and saw his wife, Avery, was calling. His heart skipped a beat. He knew she was expecting him and Mia at home by now, but he wasn’t ready to explain where they were just yet. He quickly answered the call, trying to sound as natural as possible. “Hey, babe!” Jeremy said, forcing a smile, even though Avery couldn't see him. He hoped the cheerfulness in his voice would mask his anxiety he's good at doing it. “Darling” Avery's voice was soft but had a note of concern written all over it. “I just got home, and... well, you and Mia aren’t here.” Jeremy’s mind raced. He couldn’t tell her the truth, not now. He squeezed the phone a little bit tighter, and he looked up things to think of something more convincing to say. “Oh, uh, yeah” Jeremy stammered, searching for a quick excuse. “I took Mia out to get her something. We’re just finishing up now. We’ll be back soon, okay?” There was a brief pause on the other end, and Jeremy could almost picture
Jeremy, sensing an opportunity for some quality family time, suggested a change of plans for breakfast. "How about we eat out this morning as a family?" he asked Avery, who had been standing in the kitchen, ready to begin her morning cooking routine.Mia's enthusiasm was immediate, her eyes lighting up with excitement. "Hurray!" she exclaimed, her voice bouncing with delight. "Can we go to the pancake house?"Jeremy chuckled at his daughter's eagerness. "Why don't we let your mom decide?" he said, glancing at Avery.Avery, despite recognizing the value of family time, seemed hesitant to venture out into the world. "It's a good idea, but I'm tired of bumping into people who seem determined to upset me," she said, a weariness in her voice that spoke of her thinning patience.Jeremy, sensing her reluctance, offered a reassuring smile. "Don't worry, we won't run into anyone who'll bother you," he said, his tone confident and soothing. "I'll make sure of it. We'll choose a quiet spot, away
