Ava strides away, ignoring the furious dude she had married by mistake. If he thinks he is so mighty and he couldn't talk back to him, he must be mistaken. That era had passed. Now, tooth for tooth and an eye for an eye. She would give him a backlash however he throws it at her. That's how they'll remain until the divorce comes through. She decided to go visit her parents rather than going to see her professor. She would prepare for that the next morning. Adrian's complexion hadn't recovered from the purple as his chauffeur drove his car close to where Ava Leon stood, a few distance away, waiting to get a taxi. How dare she lash at him with her words? Does she want to die? Did she know he can ruin her entire family in a single hour? How dare she? “Sir, ma'am is by the road, should I pick her?” The chauffeur demanded, gradually bringing the car to a slow as they got near to where Ava stood. But rather than receive a response, he felt the atmosphere in th
“That's okay Papa and Mama. You both are going to make me go emotional” Ava Leon complained in a choked voice. Her tears gave way again despite trying hard not to let it drop. Her parents are her life and she loves them so much. She wants to love her mother-in-law and her father in-law the same way, but they don't understand the language of love. So it doesn't matter if she speaks love,acts love, shows love and does everything in love. They won't understand it because they don't understand the language of love. Happily Ava Leon served the dishes. Her father couldn't eat the regular meal but was placed on a special diet. Inwardly she sobbed, seeing what ill health had subjected her Papa to. Midway through the meal, Sam Leon asked “How's Adrian?” With his eyes fixed on his daughter. He knows it when a woman is happy in a marriage, but it doesn't seem that his daughter is happy. She's happy and smiled. But beneath those actions, he could see an unhappy wo
What he wants for his daughter is happiness. He is not a greedy or covetous man. Heaven knows he didn't force his daughter into that marriage because of the Lester family fortune. He is a man of character and reputation. He might not be wealthy or be able to afford a three square meal but he has held onto his integrity for these many years and he was never going to relinquish it for anything in this life. “If you want it,then you have our full support dear. We only want you to be happy. If being married to Adrian Lester would ruin your happiness, then walk away from that marriage with your sanity still intact” Clara declared. Ava carefully raised her head. Her parents are in support of her divorce? Wow, she was worried that it would break them and was hesitating on telling them initially. She smiled through her tears and hugged her mother. Kissed her Papa's hands and the happiness returned again. As Adrian Lester arrived at the office, he was having a series of
When Ava’s vision got restored,she saw Richard Lester by the doorway with a furious gaze, staring at his wife's back view. But Anna didn't know her husband was watching and listening. “... they want you to share a part in our wealth and affluence and hence they forced their gold digger daughter on my son. But as expected of my handsome boy, he didn't love you. You dare to ask him a divorce to his face? My son was raised as a prince,birthed in wealth and soak in power all his life. And yet, a woman who has no value or reputation like you dare to ask him to divorce you? You are the product of a mistake, who was pitied and adopted by those wretched childless couples and…” Anna was still saying when Ava threw caution to the air. “Enough Anna Lester! I won't accept you insult me like this or mount grievous words against my parents. Were you born with wealth and power or you found it on this earth? That arrogant, spoiled brat of yours you called a son is who you prid
Lola Carrero brought Adrian home drunk. She was taking him to his room when Anna descended the stairs. She smiled at her broadly and told Lola the direction to Adrian's bedroom. Next morning, When Adrian woke up, he had a terrible hangover. It seemed to him that he lost consciousness totally. This is the second time this has happened to him. It seemed to him as if he was knocked out entirely. Being drunk doesn't make him lose consciousness to his environment this way. It's almost like he was drugged, not drunk. Then he saw Lola fully dressed and reading a fashion magazine. He sprang up on his feet and staggered. His head was aching terribly. “Hey baby” Lola declared and walked over to give him support. He stabilised himself and asked “You spent the night here again?” How did she do it that his family allowed her to stay over again. Are they already prepared to accept her as his fiance as soon as the divorce process is over? “Yeah sure. My future mother
The contract has suddenly been cancelled and as they speak, the contract has been assigned to a rival company and has just been signed. He is furious. What the heck is going on? How can he lose an almost done deal? He contacted Kenaz technology and he was told that they owe him nothing. He was the one who told them reasons why the contract was better awarded to his competitor. What is he saying? Adrian refused to accept it and vowed to sue the Kenaz technology for turning back on their words. They've passed the first and second stage of the signing and just when it was time to finalise it, they gave it to his worst rival Sabastian Walker. Adrian was furious. He slammed his fist against the desk a few times and gnashed his teeth. He would take the contract back, no matter what it costs him, he would definitely get it back. Clem walked into his office and informed “The contract was sabotage sir but I haven't gotten details of how” from an insider report, he
Meanwhile, Adrian was happy. He would talk to Ava to meet him in his attorney's place that morning. But then, he remembered grandfather told him he wanted to see him urgently last night but he was caught up with a dinner party with a client and returned late. He would see grandfather that morning before leaving. But if he thinks he can talk him away from signing the divorce papers, he won't listen to him. Grandfather should know what it means to be in love. He probably had also been in love with his grandmother back then that is why he could never say three lines of a sentence without mentioning his grandmother's name. But as he descended the stairs, he heard grandfather scream Ava's name and it sounded scary, quickly, Adrian rushed towards his grandfather's room and Anna followed. When he pushed the door open, a scary gory scene was before him. Adrian felt his heart beat almost skipped as he gaze on the floor laid his grandfather in his own pool of blood. At this t
“You shouldn't sweat it son, I've had her arrested. But please, don't inform Richard about this. He would get worried and leave the summit midway. Let's manage this until he comes back” Anna Lester instructed. Adrian nodded and stepped out. Glad that his mother has taken a drastic step by having that scumbag arrested. That tramp from the gutters dare to attempt to murder his grandfather, she wouldn't live another minute if his grandfather loses his life. The news of what happened got to the ears of Patrick Connor. He doubted it. That's impossible. Ava Leon is a fragile woman that couldn't even step on an ant. How can she conceive the idea of hurting grandfather Lester? If he is correct, grandfather is the only one in that family that truly loves her. Something is wrong somewhere. He got down to the Lester world of technology and didn't meet the CEO Adrian Lester. He called and the latter said he had returned home to take a shower. That way, Patrick Connor dr
