Before he left for the meeting, he asked me to take the tender document from you."Avery smiled brightly at Henry and asked, "Secretary Gibbs, didn't you say you are President Bennet's Executive Secretary? Why are you not at the meeting? Please take me to his office."Henry stammered, "The Pre-president is holding the meeting in his office. I was part of the meeting as well. He sent me to fetch the tender document from you."Avery smiled faintly and said, "I know that your boss is not at the meeting, but

Which is the perfect date for you?"Luca smiled and replied, "Any date is alright with me except 30 September because CEO Martins will be visiting our branch." Jordan was overjoyed when he heard of CEO Martins' schedule.A few days later, Jordan went to the Martins Group to drop the invitation card to his future father-in-law. He greeted him with a smile and said, "Uncle Martins, I am having a celebration party on the 30 September, I hope you will come."Mr Martins told him that he had a scheduled meeting with the East London branch office, and he would not be able to cancel it. He p
Avery took his phone and dialed Jordan's number. She saw Jordan take his phone from his suit jacket's pocket, then switched it off. Her heart ached when she saw that her beloved boyfriend was ignoring her.She smiled at Siyabonga and said, "Please wait for me. I want to greet Jordan." Siyabonga nodded his head; he took juice from the waiter.Jordan was chatting and laughing with his mother. When Jordan saw Avery approaching them, he was so annoyed and said, "What is she doing here because I didn't invite her?"When his mother saw a gorgeous girl approaching them smiling, she asked, "Who is she?" Jordan looked at Avery with an icy-cold gaze and replied, "She is no one, Mom."Avery greeted them with a smile and said, "May I have a word, Jordan?" His face darkened then he asked his mother to excuse them.Before Avery uttered a word, Jordan asked, "Avery, what are you doing here? I don't remember inviting you." Avery was taken aback; she thought Jordan would be happy to see her and replied
In the blink of an eye, three months had passed since Avery last saw Jordan. She stopped sending text messages or calling him because he told her that her love was suffocating him.On the 30th of December, Avery had a difficult surgery. It lasted twelve hours. At 1 pm, Dr Lambert told the doctors who were involved in the surgery to go home and rest. Avery's apartment was five minutes' walk from the hospital.When she arrived home, she took a long bath, then she went to bed. She was mentally and physically exhausted. She quickly fell asleep. She thought she was dreaming when she heard her phone ringing. She rubbed her eyes, and then she took her phone, but it stopped ringing.She was about to go back to sleep when her phone started ringing again. She looked at the caller ID. She was surprised to see Jordan's name. She ignored his call and switched her phone off. She didn't want to talk to him, then she went back to sleep.Jordan was fuming with anger when his calls were not picked up by
At 4 am, Avery received a call from Dr Lambert. He indicated that one of the businessmen in the city was involved in a car accident. His car was found on the cliff. He asked her to come to the hospital urgently.Avery quickly took a shower and wore her blue jeans and white t-shirt and left. Outside her apartment, she found one of the doctors waiting for her. Even though it was a five-minute walk to the hospital, it wasn't safe for a girl to walk alone.Elsewhere, around 8 am, Siyabonga submitted the tender proposal, then he went to work. He was praying in his heart for the Martins Group to be awarded the Spaghetti Junction tender.At 10 am, Jordan dialed Avery's phone, but it went straight to voicemail. He was overwhelmed with anger.

Jordan told him to wait in the hospital. Avery went out of the operating r
It was the fifth anniversary of Avery and Jordan. Also, it was Avery's birthday. She was looking forward to spending quality time with her boyfriend.She even applied for special leave on that day. Jordan had never taken her out for dinner for the past five years.He had never introduced her to his friends or his family. She had never received any gift from him. Sometimes she felt that she was in a one-sided relationship.He always told her that he was busy with the company. She was hoping that today he would propose to her.Her father called her early in the morning and said, "Happy birthday my Sweetheart, Daddy loves you so much. May the Lord give you the desires of your heart.May He remove people who are not supposed to be in your life today on your birthday and bless you with wisdom."Avery giggled when she heard her father's words. She thanked her father, and then they hung up.Then her best friend, Gabriella Stone called her and said, "Happy birthday my dearest friend. May the L
Jordan looked guilty but the lady beside him pinched him hard. He looked at Avery with cold eyes and said, "You are late, we have been waiting here for ten minutes. Time is money."Avery looked at the man in front of her. She froze, she couldn't breathe. She didn't know how she sat down. Her mind went blank.Jordan was holding a glass of wine in his hand and said, "Avery, I want to introduce someone important in my life, my fiancée, Tiffany Spencer. Let's break up. I have never loved you, but I pitied you because your mother didn't love you.I am tired of pretending. I have wasted so many years with you. I never knew what love was before I met the love of my life, Tiffany Spencer. Please move on with your life and forget about me."Then he kissed his fiancée on the lips in front of Avery. She was so shocked; she couldn't believe her ears. She felt like a knife was ruthlessly stabbing her fragile heart.She was dumped by her beloved boyfriend in front of his new girlfriend. He cheated o

He took his phone and dialed his sister's phone number.When it was connected, he said, "Big sis, I am sorry. Jordan will pay for hurting you." Avery smiled with tears in her eyes and replied, "Thank you, my handsome brother.I am asking the Lord to take the pain away. Jordan used me as his stepping stone. I appreciate you, my handsome brother." Then they hung up.Mr Martins
A few minutes later, Chef Ambrose walked into the dining room with the waiters carrying Stainless Steel Chafing dishes. Avery and Gabriella followed behind them.Chef Ambrose opened the chafing dishes' lids, and the aroma filled the dining room. The guests started salivating. The food was mouth-watering.Chef Ambrose and Avery started plating. She put a plate of food on a tray, then she asked the waiters to follow her. She served Grandpa Taylor first, then the waiters served other guests, except for Xavier.Unbeknownst to her, while she was serving her grandfather-in-law, Lily took the plate of food on the table and served Xavier. He looked coldly at her and ignored the food.Avery plated her husband's plate differently, then she walked towards him, smiling from ear to ear. To her surprise, there was a plate of food in front of him.She put the plate aside and gave him the plate of food she had prepared.

Mr Taylor senior handed a cheque for twenty billion rand, health supplements, and a custom-made suit to Mr Martins. He smiled and said, "The custom-made suit was designed by your son-in-law, and all these gifts are coming from him."Mr Martins smiled at his son-in-law and thanked him. Then he took the cheque with both hands and thanked the Taylor family for their generous gifts.The Taylor family showered Pastor Basil, Aiden, Siyabonga, the Shelton family, the King family, and the Hayes family with luxurious gifts. They also thanked Bridgette for raising Avery well, and they gave her luxurious gifts.Mrs Taylor handed Mrs Martins' luxurious gifts to Aunt Rose.

Their luxurious designer coats and handbags were designed by the legendary Belgian fashion designer, Dries Van Noten.At that moment, Mrs Martins walked into the dining room with Lily in tow.
Ethan was so angry that he laughed, "Are you serious, Lily? Which eye did you see my sister hurting your Aunt? Some people are really dumb. They don't even know how to distinguish right from wrong."Logan looked at her coldly and said, "Please listen to me carefully, Miss Parker. My brother-in-law is not Jordan Bennet. Do you think he will fall in love with you?Please get it through your thick skull that you are inferior to my sister in every aspect. You are not my sister's competition, Miss Parker.If you don't believe me, please go ahead and embarrass yourself in front of the Taylor family. Let's see if Grandpa Taylor will allow you to set foot in the Taylor family."Avery had lost her appetite. She excused herself and went to the garden to calm herself down. She took her phone and sent a text message to her husband regarding Aunt Elizabeth's threat.At that moment, Avery's phone started ringing. When she saw the caller ID she smiled and said, "Hello, my handsome husband, I thought
In the living room, Keith was reluctant to leave his wife behind because, since they registered their marriage, they had never been separated. When Keith went to the Military headquarters to apply for a transfer, Bridgette accompanied him.He looked at August and said, "In-law, I have something to attend to, and I will see you tomorrow."

In the blink of an eye, it was Friday. Xavier took his wife to His Grace Hotel for lunch. He looked at his wife with eyes full of love and asked, "My stunning wife, don't you want to go to the Martins mansion tomorrow morning?"Avery smiled sweetly at her husband and replied, "Honey, it's just one night. Tomorrow I will be nestled in your arms. I have to go back home to ensure that everything is in order."Xavier looked at her with sadness in his eyes and asked, "I am so scared. What if she hurts you?" Avery kissed him on the lips and replied, "She wouldn't dare. Aunt Bridge would never let her go. Also, I know how to protect myself.Should something happen to me, I will call you to rescue me." Xavier's face became gloomy, and he asked, "Why don't you take Portia with you, my love?"Avery hugged her husband tightly for a long time and replied, "My handsome husband, Aunt Elizabeth, will never harm me because Daddy will never let her off the hook."After lunch, Xavier reluctantly drove
A few hours later, her parents were wheeled into her ward. Tiffany was shocked when she saw her father in the hospital bed. She tried to go to her father's bed, but her lower abdomen was too painful.

He couldn't believe his ears that his precious daughter had lied to them with a straight face.After the surgery, Mrs Spencer was sent to her husband's ward.

Then Mr Spencer asked the nurses to move them to their daughter's ward.Tiffany looked at her father with eyes full of concern and asked, "Daddy, what happened to you?" Her father ignored her question and asked, "Tiffany, is it true that you met Jordan at the Bennet Group Celebration Part
Mrs Spencer was dumbfounded when she heard her daughter's words. She looked at her daughter and asked, "What did you say, Tiffany? Didn't you tell us that you fell in love with Jordan at first sight? Were you lying to us?"Tiffany looked at her mother with tears streaming down her face and replied, "I am sorry, Mom. I lied to you and Dad. I met Jordan for the first time when we were attending the Bennet Group Celebration Party.Aunt Elizabeth promised to give me a project should I succeed in breaking Jordan and Avery up. However, she ended up giving me five million rands as compensation to cover the engagement banquet and the wedding expenses."Mrs Spencer nearly fainted with anger. She was reminded of Xavier's words when he said, 'There would come a time when she wished her family had never befriended Mrs Martins, but it will be too late'.It was clear that Elizabeth took their friendship for granted. She felt chest pains, then she fainted. Fortunately, the nurses were standing beside
Tiffany looked at Mrs Bennet in a different light. She was lying through her teeth. She wiped her tears and said, "Aunt Tess, stop lying. I was already awake when I left the emergency room.When you stopped my mother from taking care of me, I realized that you were up to no good. Then I decided to switch on the video camera on my phone.Then I closed my eyes on purpose to catch you in the act. You are evil-hearted, Aunt Tess." Then she cried sorrowfully in her mother's arms.

Mrs Bennet was caught off guard. She didn't dodge on time. Her face became numb.Mrs Bennet looked at Mrs Spencer viciously and said, "Who do you think you are? Because of the little money that you have, do you think you could hit me? I tolerated you when I was staying at your house. Enough is enough."Then she slapped Mrs Spencer twice on he
A few minutes later, Jordan told his parents that he was going out to get fresh air. He had been telling himself that it was impossible for Avery to move on since she loved him so much. He felt like crying, but he managed to hold his tears back.When he heard Avery telling everyone that she stopped loving him at the Bennet Group Celebration Party, he felt suffocated. He always thought that Avery would wait for him, or she would agree to be his mistress.Unfortunately, it was his wishful thinking. Deep in his heart, he regretted treating Avery the way he did, but he was arrogant to ask for forgiveness. He had thought no one would take his place in Avery's heart.Mr Bennet followed behind his son. He was scared that his only son might commit suicide. His beloved fiancée betrayed him at the altar in front of their friends and neighbours.While they were in the waiting room, Mr Bennet logged into social media.
