Avery's POVI felt like I was in a dream, I still couldn’t believe it was real, I looked down at my finger to the ring sitting on it. I studied the ring, it was an almond-shaped diamond, with little diamonds covering the band. The ring was beautiful and the diamond was really big. It must have been expensive but I hated chunky rings. I would have preferred a smaller stone, maybe a gemstone like ruby.The next morning, the news of my engagement had traveled so fast, faster than I had expected it would. That was the first notification I had gotten on my phone from a popular blog.I had already received several congratulatory messages, I had to tell my grandfather before any other person told him about it, I thought as I dialed his phone number.“Hello, dear,” came my grandfather’s hoarse voice.“Good morning Grandpa,” I greeted him.“Avery dear, how are you and my boys?” He asked.“We are fine Grandpa,” I said as I adjusted myself on the bed in order to deliver the good news. “Tobias a

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

Avery's POVI didn’t know what to make of the discovery, I had just made about Uncle Mark. I was still shaken to my bones.I didn’t understand how someone would want to sabotage something that belonged to them, simply because they didn't like the person appointed CEO, even when that person was the only surviving family member of their only brother. I felt really disappointed in him and had to find the best way to handle the situation. I couldn’t tell my grandfather that his only surviving son had tried sabotaging his company. Over what? I asked myself, a hatred he had for me. It would break my grandfather's heart and I couldn't risk exposing him to such news, afraid of the impact it might cause to his already frail health.I couldn’t also fire him or do anything to him on my own, without feeling like the most evil person on the planet. I tried to think rationally, because I felt before my discovery Grandpa might have had no other choice but to hand the company over to Uncle Mark, e

Avery’s POV Danielle and her friends walked to a table on the other side of the cafe, opposite where I was sitting with Lora. I turned my attention back to Lora, as I tried to completely ignore Danielle even though I knew she was staring at me contemptuously.“So what had been going on with you,” I asked Lora, as I tried to ignore the fact that Danielle was still staring daggers at me.“I met a guy in school and we are so in love,” Lora said, as a blush crept up her face.“Really? I’m so happy for you Lora, you deserve the best” I said smiling at her.“Tell me more, where is he from and what does he do?” I asked excitedly.“He just finished med school and he’s doing his residency at the state hospital. He's a really great guy, and I want to spend the rest of my life with him,” she said dreamily, a very satisfied smile on her face.I smiled as well, I knew what it felt like to be completely loved by someone, I have experienced it or so I thought.
