"Who are you?!" She exclaimed as she tried to hide her body. The man's face turned red instantly and stormed out at once.

"Pervert!"

Avery shouted. She even felt her body tremble in fear. Maybe someone had another key to her room? Maybe John set this up? Or maybe his wife did it? John told her that she was a dangerous woman. Avery started to feel worried and scared about what would possibly happen to her.

She got her nightgown and wore it then headed to the hallway to check if there was anyone there. But to her luck, the hallway was empty. She checked the doorknob to see if it was broken. Maybe it was not safe for her to stay? Or maybe she should get the door fixed?

Her heart continued to beat fast as her thoughts about the pervert increased. She would definitely tell the management about this. Her only problem was that she couldn't remember how he looked like. She was about to call John when she noticed that he still hadn't replied. He would reply to her photos almost immediately so she was feeling a bit weird about his actions.

Despite what just happened, she didn't want to leave the condominium. She knew how hard it is to move. After a few hours, she heard someone open the door.

"Avery?"

He walked to the bedroom to see her looking by the window in her nightgown. He sighed, he really didn't want to leave Avery, but he knew his wife would harm her.

"Hey"

John held her shoulder and she turned to him. She looked elegant with her clear skin and silky hair. Even if John did not want to admit it, his heart skipped a beat. She looked at him with loving eyes as she reached for his face. He moved closer to her and she smiled, "Welcome home."

John tried to move away but he was already captivated by her smile so he leaned more to reach her lips. She smiled as she kissed him back.

"I have a surprise for you."

John watched as she slowly removed her nightgown, revealing her sexy body. His eyes were glued to her, making her smirk. John struggled to look away, "Are you done packing?"

Avery cupped his face to make him turn to her, "Just give me the condo, John. This way, you can always visit me anytime you want to."

John looked at her from head to toe. How could he resist this beautiful woman in front of him? Avery stood up and looked at him with lustful eyes. She placed her hand on his chest, making his legs weak.

"Come on, John. Even my baby? Can't I keep him?"

John turned to the small dog sleeping peacefully on the bed. Her hands moved to his stomach. This caught his attention and he turned to her.

"Please?"

"I.. I'll try to talk to my.."

She cut him off by kissing him. His phone suddenly rang and he moved away immediately. She took a deep breath and wore her nightgown again.

"Yes, she will leave tonight. Yes. Yes. No.. You don't need to go"

He turned to her. "She's coming here."

Avery raised an eyebrow. "I'm not going to leave. This is my place."

Just then, the door opened. The room was suddenly filled with sounds coming from high heels. John looked afraid and nervous while Avery prepared herself.

The woman in her 40s stopped in front of the bedroom looked angry as ever. She wore the same clothing brands as John and her perfume was too strong that could make one's nose hurt. Not only that, but her jewelries also look extremely expensive, exactly what one should expect from a rich man's wife.

"What are you still doing here?" Avery smiled, "This is my place. What are you doing here?"

The woman turned to John and crossed her arms. "John?"

John tried to console his wife but she ignored him. She kept on glaring at Avery who wasn't affected at all. Avery was about to walk out of the room when the woman grabbed her arm.

"Where do you think you're going?"

"Uh, out? I don't want to be in this mess."

Avery moved her arm away, surprising the couple. The woman was about to hit Avery but John stopped her. Avery raised her eyebrow and smirked. She was about to walk away when the woman spoke.

"You will not get a single cent from us."

Avery turned around and smiled. "Watch me."

The thing about Avery was that she was prepared. If plan A did not work, she still had plan B, and even both of them didn't work, there was always plan C. So when John's wife came, Avery knew that she needed to carry out plan C, though the plan would ruin their lives.

The couple eventually left after an hour. Avery got her things and headed to her bestfriend's place. When Avery entered Jane's apartment that night, the latter was busy watching TV. Her hair was tied up and she was wearing her favorite pajama. She turned to see Avery with a smirk on her face.

"Plan B didn't work huh"

Avery nodded and hopped on the couch beside Jane. "Well, I am prepared for plan C. I just don't understand why they can't give me the condominium and the dog."

Jane glared at her friend. "You're seriously asking me that?"

Avery rolled her eyes and got some chips from Jane. "He's one of the richest men in the country. Those aren't worth anything to him."

"Are you sure plan C is a good idea?"

Avery laughed, the kind of laugh she used whenever she was plotting something bad. "I asked them nicely, twice. So it's not my fault anymore."

Avery got her phone to look at a certain phone number. Tomorrow, she would get everything she wanted, her condominium, things, and dog. She would win again. John and his wife would come begging to her.

    "Avery, why can't you just find a nice guy who will love you and stay with you until you grow old?" Jane said.Avery placed her head on her friend's shoulder, "Tell me that when you finally found your true love. As far as I'm concerned, true love isn't real.""You'll never find it if you keep up meeting old men." Avery laughed. "At least I don't get my heart broken like you." Jane shook her head. She knew that no matter what she told Avery, the other won't listen. It's like Avery closed her heart from the world without even trying. "Wow. That family is getting popular nowadays." Jane commented as a commercial played on TV. Avery turned her attention to it. "Do you think that he might be interested in me?"Jane sighed, "You're hopeless. Why not date the son?"Avery laughed, "I'm not interested in immature men. He probably doesn't have much money, unlike his dad."Jane did not react and just hoped that a prince charming can save her friend from her trauma and fears. She did not

    "Do I know you?"She paused. She was about to say something when one of the guards stopped him and led him somewhere. Avery watched as the guy walked away. His aura was different now than the other day. He seemed the serious type and his expensive suit made him intimidating. But he his perfume was familiar. It was the same perfume that lingered in her condominium. Now, she was sure that he was the pervert from the other day. This is why she didn't date younger men. They are rude. The following day, news about JDC Mobile spread like wildfire. All broadcast stations and news companies were publishing the said issue. In fact, the company was under investigation even if the proof was already enough to put John behind the bars. While all of these were happening, Avery was sound asleep in her apartment. She was busy fixing her things until late last night that she wasn't able to find a target. Her phone rang at around 9 am. Still half asleep, she answered it. "Hm… yes?""What did

    Avery turned to see the guy beside her was the one from the restaurant. He smiled at her. "It's not good to walk in the rain without an umbrella."She cannot explain what she felt but it was different as compared when other people helped her. His smile was contagious that can make anyone smile as well, even Avery. But her warm feeling towards this stranger disappeared when she realized something."I know you!"He looked away. "A lot of people say that ever since my dad asked us to that commercial. I regret it though.""No! I know you! You're the pervert from the other day!"The statement made him turn to her. "The sexy lady from B211?"She instantly moved away, but he pulled her next to him to keep them under the umbrella. "Let me go!""You'll get wet!""You pervert!!" she kicked him on the leg and moved away. He sighed. "It was an accident, okay? They told me my room is the only one unlocked and I mistook it for your room. I'm staying at B212. I was using my phone and didn

    Avery smirked and hanged up. She then checked her contacts for other potential partners. But so far, no one responded to her. So she had no choice but to meet Ran tomorrow night. Avery mastered everything she needed to do when going on a first date, even if technically this was not their first. The first thing she did was wax her legs. She had long legs which can take her an hour or less to get everything waxed. Next was to do her nightly routine. She used a lot of products to keep her face healthy and smooth. She applied each product after the next and she smiled as she looked at herself in the mirror. Sometimes Avery felt like she was a celebrity because of her routine but it made her feel good about herself. After that, she combed her hair for an hour to make sure her hair was healthy and smooth. When everything was done, she would light her favorite scented candles and sleep. Ran and Avery first met at a restaurant an hour away from the city. It was the same restaurant they

    "Mr. Lee, what a pleasure to see you." Ran commented as he stood, showing off his expensive suit and watch. Avery turned to the stranger, Lee as in the business partner of GigaPhones? Is that why she saw him at the building the other day? Now that Avery started to pay attention, this stranger had a well-built body. His hair looked like it was very soft and well-taken care of. What can she expect from a rich guy? He had beautiful white skin, like those commercial models on TV. Avery hated to admit it but she was interested in this man. The only problem was that he was not qualified to be her target. He was young and he didn't seem to be that wealthy yet. "Hello. Sorry to interrupt your dinner but she doesn't look comfortable."Ran looked at Avery who frowned. She needed to hide the fact that she was scared even if her hand was already trembling. Carson, the stranger beside her, noticed this. "I don't think she is uncomfortable. Tell the man the truth, Avery." Carson looked at

    When Avery opened the door to Jane's apartment, Jane was already on the couch with her favorite mug. She knew that when Avery saw her this way, she was demanding details about the date. Avery chuckled upon seeing her friend."So?"Avery sat across her friend, "What do you mean?"Jane watched as her friend removed her heels and relaxed on the couch. "As far as I can remember, Ran doesn't have a Ferrari and he doesn't drive.""I'm not going to meet that crazy pervert ever again." Jane raised her eyebrow, "So… the Ferrari...."Avery rolled her eyes. If Jane knew that she was not with an old rich guy, she would tease her to death. She stood up, "I'm tired, babe. I'll talk to you tomorrow." Jane immediately jumped in front of her friend, surprising Avery. "Who is he?? Why aren't you telling me?"Avery smiled and held her friend's shoulders. "It's nobody. You need to chill. I need to rest and find another target tomorrow." What most people didn't know was that Avery chooses her targe

    He looked at her with curiosity, an expression he didn't have last night. Avery gulped, maybe he finally found out her plan or that some women did the same thing as her. She bit her lip, an act she did whenever she is about to lose her client. The silence between them was eating her alive. She knew she can't use her body like before. She looked at him directly in the eyes. He looked handsome today considering that he was wearing an expensive suit. His hair was fixed perfectly so he might have an important meeting to attend to. "Well, sorry, I'm busy today." Avery waited for the follow-up. Something like, maybe we can try next time. But his reply was short and direct to the point. It was a simple response to I am not interested. She smiled. This was the second time he rejected her. She wanted to leave but she knew she can't. She was doing this for Jane and also for the thrill. It was not every day that Avery can meet a man who wasn't affected by her charms. Just then, the waitres

    Avery smiled as she folded Jane's clothes. Her friend really needed to change her wardrobe. All of her clothes were short and slutty. If she was planning to date a decent guy, she needed decent clothes. "We should probably go to the mall. Your clothes are so…"She was cut off when Jane showed her the new look. "Does this make me look smart?" Avery smiled and nodded, "You look decent, babe. I think you should start wearing these kinds of clothes." Jane sighed and sat on the bed. "I don't know, Ave. Good guys aren't really my thing. They say smart things that I don't understand. They make me feel like I'm stupid." Avery turned to her friend who looked sad, "No, silly. You just feel like that because you know he is smart. You told me to be myself with Carson, right? Why don't you do that? Talk about the things that interest you. You are a wonderful woman, Jane. You are smart and you are amazing. Don't settle for less." Avery couldn't change her bestfriend's outlook in life. She

    "Do you feel the same way towards me?" She paused with the sudden question. He looked worried and nervous but she didn't understand why. "Why?"He chuckled, "I need to know why you were doing all of these. Why try so hard to talk to me when you could've just run away? I don't think you would do these to your other targets." She looked down as he spoke. "I feel the same way as you."He smiled, "That's good to know." She couldn't believe that this was actually happening. Is this even real? Or is Carson getting revenge for everything that she did to him? "If this is some kind of joke, I don't want to be a part of it."He shaked his head. He could feel her drifting away and he didn't want that to happen. He looked at her with concern. "No, Avery. This is real. I want to make this work. I know our beginning wasn't that nice but I want to start fresh."She didn't know what to respond. She couldn't believe what she was hearing right now. After 3 months, this is what he wanted? "

    Avery couldn't believe what she was seeing right now. Even if she can see Carson in commercials and billboards, it was different when she saw him again. His aura was different from the one she remembered. He was no longer angry or cold. His vibe was warm and gentle, just like he was when they first met. She lightly smiled, "Indeed. Are you free?" He walked to her and nodded. She wiped her hands using her handkerchief as she lead the way. "So I heard that you opened a café." He started as they walked. She nodded but paused when she realized that she didn't tell the news to anybody aside from Jane and Alexander. "How did you---"He didn't let her finish and smiled when they reached the café. Jane and Brix were smiling widely as if everything was a secret surprise. Avery shaked her head as she smiled. "So, we have a date. We'll leave the two of you?" Jane asked as Avery and Carson approached them.She didn't wait for Avery's response and grabbed Brix's hand. The couple then left.

    Jane took a deep breath and Avery knew what the answer was. She leaned back in her chair while Jane sat in front of her. "So what now?"Avery looked at her friend, she didn't want to sound like she was giving up but she was running out of ideas. Jane looked at Avery as she recalled what happened in Carson's office. Jane smiled and nodded. "She did. She wanted to talk to you but you know how Avery can be." Carson lightly smiled but she can sense that he was sad and hurt. "I can't meet her, Jane. I don't know what she told you but I can't trust her anymore."Carson sounded exactly like Avery. That's when Jane understood how her bestfriend fell for the man. "I know it's hard, especially after what she did but Avery isn't the type to fix relationships. She usually runs away since she doesn't care. I know that might be hard to believe, but she is doing everything she can to just talk to you. She even talked to your sister." His eyes widened when he heard the last line. But he didn't r

    Avery knew that Carson might've made a mistake when he called her that night. He could've just dialled the number without knowing who it was because if he really did call her, he would've said something.She knew she was drunk because she could hear bottles in the background. The sound was too familiar as she heard the same bottle sounds whenever she went to Jane's place. But what she didn't know was Carson's history related to alcohol. She just risked everything when she decided to meet his sister.Ms. Lee's reaction was exactly what Avery hoped to see. But all her plans were ruined when the young billionaire's sister spoke. "There is nothing I can do to help you." "What do you mean?"Ms. Lee lightly smirked, "You met my family, remember? You know how things work and who decides for everyone. I care about Carson but nothing I do or say would matter to that family." Avery paused. This was the first time she saw this side of Ms. Lee even if she just met each other once. "I see."

    Avery waited for his voice as her heart continued to beat fast. The other line was silent and she didn't know what to do. "Carson?" She asked but the line was cut. She looked at her phone in confusion. Then the sky rumbled, making her turn her head up. She smiled, "Thanks, mom. I get the sign." The following morning, Avery was planning her ultimate move to get Carson back. She couldn't go there as she didn't want the press to be bothering the both of them. Plus, the reports said she moved to another country and surely, the press would be staying by the company to watch Carson's moves. As she laid in bed, her eyes widen when a sudden idea popped in her head. She immediately got her phone to dial another number. "Hi! Do you deliver?"Carson, on the other hand, was busy with work. He was so drunk last night that he couldn't remember what he did. He couldn't explain what he was feeling because it was the first time he felt anything like this. "Do not do anything reckless, Carson.

    "Mark?" Avery asked, her tone was low and sad. She wasn't expecting to see anyone at this hour. He smiled, it was like the first time they met at his office when she decided to ruin John's life. He was wearing a black sweatshirt and pants. Much in the same colors as what Avery is wearing."How are you? Where are you going?" He asked as he looked at her outfit. She chuckled, "Just a walk." He cleared his throat, signalling that he was about to ask something important. "Is everything alright? I read the article about the break-up." Avery lightly smiled, "You know I don't belong there."He looked at her as if she was wrong. "Let's walk" She raised her eyebrow in confusion. "Aren't you supposed to do something or go somewhere?" He then pointed a small corgi looking by the tree. "I'm just walking the dog"Avery smiled as both of them walk. The little corgi followed upon seeing them. It didn't have a leash but it seemed to be obedient to its owner. "I know what kind of person you are ba

    Avery was too tired to even wake up from the constant ringing of her phone. She only realized that someone was looking for her when she heard a loud bang on her door the following day. She jolted up, thinking that no one would dare do that to her apartment especially when not a lot of people know her place. She grabbed her robe, wrapped it around her body, and head to the door. When she opened it, she saw a tired-looking Jane. "What happened to you?" Avery asked as she let her friend in. Jane was catching her breath as she walked to the small living room. Jane took a deep breath and looked at Avery. She held her phone to her friend's face, where Avery saw the article about her and Carson breaking up. "What happened? I've been calling you since last night because I want to know how are you and you're not picking up---" Avery cut her friend off, "Why are you worried about me?" Jane looked at her bestfriend as if it was the most obvious thing in the world. "I am your bestfriend. We

    Avery moved her body closer to the wall. It's wasn't like she was afraid but she was worried that the elevator would have another malfunction. On the other hand, Carson stood still as he pressed the button."We're stuck" He commented as if it wasn't the most obvious thing to say. He then saw a light coming from Avery's side as she opened the flashlight of her phone. "I'm sure they already noticed what happened. We can just wait for them to come." She replied. Her tone was confident and calm. He sighed and decided to sit by the corner. The area suddenly became cold and he hugged his legs. Avery decided to sit as well but far from him. They were both silent as they waited for the rescue to come. Avery wanted to talk to him but she couldn't find the right words to say. "Carson""Who asked you to do this? Is it Ji?"Avery knew he would ask this and this was the perfect time to come clean. "At first, it was just me. I think by now you have found out what kind of person I am. I wasn'

    Avery frowned as she saw Ji's facial expression. A smile formed on his lips as he watched the scene. He knew this was going to happen that is why he invited Carson for lunch. "I...." Avery's voice cracked when Carson walked away. For some reason, she couldn't lie to his face. She couldn't say her alibi because of how he looked like. She feared that this day would come and she would see him this hurt. Tim turned to Ji who was pleased and he couldn't help but frown. He turned to Avery who watched Carson leave the restaurant. At that moment, he knew that she really loved him and there was something that drove her to do this. Her hands trembled as she turned to Tim. Tim, on the other hand, lightly smiled. "I guess Carson thought of it differently. But thank you for helping me decide a gift for my wife." Avery's eyes widen while Ji raised an eyebrow. Tim turned to Ji, "I'm sorry. This is a huge misunderstanding. Since you're the one who brought Carson here, mind helping my friend Av
