Chapter 11: Dead toad

"Ava!" Mr Smith yelled angrily. "Watch your tongue. How dare you talk to your mother in that manner." He yelled angrily.

"Stop barking like a dog, please. I am right here before you. And did you just call her my mother?" She asked and suddenly erupted into laughter. She laughed so hard that tears started coming out from the corners of her eyes. She walked into the room further with the bodyguards following behind her. She took her seat on the couch and crossed her legs. She had a proud smile on her face.

"How can you call her my mother? Everyone here knows that I am an orphan and I don't have a mother. You are not the one that adopted me. The person who adopted me is Grandmother Smith, and she's gone now. Have any of you ever considered me as your family? I also do not consider you a family. Since childhood, I have been the one taking care of myself. Have you ever thought of treating me well? The answer is NO. You don't consider my feelings at all. You only care

It was clear that she was enjoying the scene.Lily could only grit her teeth in anger. She did not want to show her true self. She's still trying her best to remain calm.Ava's smile grew wider. She moved her gaze away from Lily and directed it to her parents, "Mr and Mrs Smith. I did not come here for trouble. I only brought them along because I know you will try to behave like psychiatric patients. The reason why I am here now is because." She paused and opened her bag. She took out her marriage certificate and showed it to them "I am already married. I married the man of my dreams. I won't return the ten million dollars you collected from Mr Andrew. I'm already married, so there is zero chance of me getting married to him. You can return the money if you like. And you can also choose not to return it. It is your problem and not mine.

    Chapter 13Greg feels like slapping himself. He almost spilled the beans. He suddenly let out an awkward laughter to ease the tension in the car."Your boss is not here with us, so how does he know I'm cool?" Ava asked again. With the way, she keeps furrowing her brow. It shows that she won't let go of this matter without getting the answer she wants."No, that's not what I mean. The boss knows you are cool at first glance. He said that himself." Greg said and let out a laugh."Oh," Ava asked. She was grinning from ear to ear and tugged some strands of her hair behind her ear."Yes ma'am," Greg replied and this made Ava's smile grow wider.After some minutes. The car finally stopped in front of her friend's apartment."Wait here for some time. I need to have a chat with my friend." She said. Happiness was written all over her face. No one could tell if she was happy that she was now married or if she was happy that she had a full gist for her friend. Just as she was about to enter, sh

    Chapter 14"What the heck?" She exclaimed in shock. She still finds it hard to digest what she has heard: "You are married? You end up having a one-night stand with a stranger? How did it happen?" she questions."That's a story for another day. I don't want to keep me waiting." Ava replied."But how can he force you into marriage? Who the heck is that guy? And what are you going to do about Mr. Andrew," she asked, and Ava laughed."You don't have to worry about that. I am just returning from the Smith family. I already showed them my marriage certificate. If they like, they should return the money. Andrew can do whatever he wants to them. That's their business and not mine. And if Andrew wanted to come after me. I'm sure he will not dare to mess with who I married. Though I don't know his identity, I can tell he is filthy rich. Also, he is the most handsome guy I have ever seen on earth. He is so freaking handsome. Even I think handsome is an understatement. His beauty is extraordinar

You can go and sleep in your room if you are feeling sleepy " Greg suggested."No. I'm not feeling sleepy. I'm fine now " Ava replied with a small smile on her face. She got out of the car and entered the house."Welcome ma'am." The maids greeted her. While bowing politely,"Hello." Ava replied to the greetings with a polite smile on her face. "Boss said you should come to his room when you arrive." One of the maids said with a small smile on her face.Ava widened her eyes in shock. Before she knew it, her heart picked race and started beating rapidly. Should she go to his room? For what? But they have just got married, so it's normal for them to spend their wedding night together. Did he want them to consummate their wedding? Will they have to sleep together? No, she did not want that. She did not want Damien to sleep with her

She did not want to anger the Grim Reaper. She was sure he would explode in anger if she dared to waste any more seconds. She was not ready to die yet. She still has many things to do in life. Dying now is not the best thing.After what seems to be an eternity. She finally stopped in front of him. Her heart was beating rapidly. It was as if her soul wanted to escape her body. She's so scared right now. She was afraid Damien would hear how her heart was beating rapidly. She tried to calm herself down, but she couldn't help it. She held the hem of her dress tightly in a protective manner.Damien suddenly raised his head to look at her. His eyes fell on her clenched fist, on the helm of her dress and his lips curved upward slightly."You have nothing to worry about. I will never stoop so low to sleep with you. You are not

    Chapter 17: This man will die in money. The next day, Ava woke up late. She sat straight on the bed and yawned loudly. Her eyes fell on the clock, and she was shocked to the bone to see that it was already 11:20 AM. She rubbed her eyes to be sure she wasn't mistaken. What the heck? She's not the type that wakes up late, so why the heck did she wake up late? Or was it because this was the best place she had ever slept so far? It is worth it though. The air conditioner was very active, and the bed was very soft. This is the best bed she has ever slept on. She almost thought she was on a water bed. None of the Smith family will ever get the chance to sleep in this kind of bed. Her lips curved upward slightly when she remembered she would not marry Andrew. She now married the wealthiest and the most handsome guy on earth. Though it's a contract marriage, it is still worth it for someone to brag about. She will get to live a good life from today onward. She will be living in the best hous

She walked over to her and bowed politely."Good morning ma'am. Here is your dress." She handed the dress over to her and she collected it."Thank you." She said with a big smile on her face and the maids left after bowing politely."Wow. This dress is just so beautiful." She said and hugged it tightly. She dried her hair with the hair dryer and slipped into the dress. She wondered how the maid knew that she needed a dress urgently though. This is just too good.She stared at her reflection through the mirror and widened her eyes in surprise."Wow. This looks so good on her. She never knew she was this beautiful. The dress made her look even more beautiful. It was an off-shoulder white dress, and it clutched at her upper body. Her hair smells so nice, and her skin even looks much whiter.

Are you eager to find me already?" Ava asked and blinked her eyes cutely. The bodyguards couldn't help but laugh. The new ma'am is very friendly and cute."Let me follow you then." The bodyguard said and took a step closer to Ava. "What is your name?""Caleb.". Caleb replied with a polite smile on his lips. "Caleb. Don't follow me. I hate it when someone follows me around, so please don't follow me. And I can take care of myself. I know how to fight. Or do you want me to beat you up first for you to believe me?

Ava smiled and walked out of the house. She boarded a taxi and went straight to Abigail's house. She

    Chapter 110: What Have You Done?Damien stirred from his sleep. He hated the nightmares that were befalling him that night. Images of Ava reaching out and begging him for help danced through his mind. The images filling his head were so unsettling that he rose with a start and glanced at the other side of the bed. It was empty and it caused his heart to jump in panic. “Ava?” He called out into the dim room, hoping she was in the bathroom. There was no response and this officially got him worried. “Ava, where are you?” He called out as he stood up from his bed and walked around the room, glancing around for any sign of his room. He was about to walk into the bathroom when he noticed that the bedroom door wasn’t properly locked. Taking a deep breath, he walked out of the room and immediately heard the sound of struggling and gulping. Instinctively, he headed to the balcony where the hot tub was located and the sight that greeted him caused bile to form in his mouth and his stomach to

    Chapter 109: I Will Take Care Of Everything “Thank you so much for defending me against Regina. I wasn’t in the mood for a fight and was thinking of the best way possible to get away from her.” She thanked him as their vehicle sped along the highway. “Hey, it is nothing. You are my wife, and I ought to protect you at all costs. It was too bad that she tried to hurt you. If you want, I can get her arrested. It would be nice to teach her some lesson so she doesn’t try this ever again.” He said. Butterflies fluttered in her stomach at his words. She would never have believed that a day would come when he would defend her so greatly, like today. “So, what made you leave Dr. Xavier’s office? Did she call you out or something?” He asked as he maneuvered the car through a bend. “No. I intended to gift the good doctor something. If it wasn't for him, you and would most likely not be together anymore. I am so grateful to him and just thought I should get him something. Unfortunately, I le

    Chapter 108: What’s Going On Here?Ava glanced around the whole space, thinking of how best to avoid Regina and the trouble she was promising. If she wasn’t in a haste to get back to Damien and Dr. Xavier, she would have taken the time to be trashy to the woman in front of her. “You look so scared like you want to run away. Well, you know what? It is best you run away because what I intend to do to you is terrible.” Regina hissed and menacingly towered over Ava. “Regina, I wish we could roll on the floor and drag our hair at each other, but I do not have the time for that. I have to go. I will see you some other time.” She answered and tried to make a beeline for the elevator, but Regina’s gait and agility were faster than her reflexes. Regina threw her to the floor in one fast move. Ava felt her head spin as pain exploded in her head. She was momentarily dizzy, and the pain traveled down her body, causing her to ache. Gosh, she had been trying to avoid trouble, and yet it came to

  • SILVER'S CONTRACT    Just My Man

    Chapter 107: Just My ManAva watched what used to be her family walk out of the office. They were all smiles even after agreeing to Damien's condition in a heartbeat. “What is wrong? You look like you have seen a ghost.” He asked her as he grabbed her into his arms. She settled into his warm body and laid her head on his chest. His heartbeat was steady and strong, promising her that everything was going to be okay. She desperately wanted to believe that, but not with the amount of money he had just thrown out to her family. When he had said that he had a condition for her family before giving them the money, she had thought it was something serious, only for him to demand that the Smiths make a minimum of 50 percent return on the amount he was going to give them. Her family had readily taken it and signed a contract, confident that they were going to get their business up and running in optimal capacity with the sum he had given them. "I may have not seen a ghost, but I just watc

    Chapter 106: ShamelessDamien glanced at the Smith family and took in a few breaths to center himself. He didn't want to do anything crazy, especially not with Ava around. He wanted to protect her, including from himself. “Despite all the good you have done for my wife, which we are both grateful for, I don’t think I can help. You see, I just recovered from a coma and my business is yet to pick up. Hopefully, some other time, I would be able to help.” He said with a forced smile. Ava let out a breath certain that this should be enough to dissuade her family from asking him for money, but she was wrong. They all stared at each other and chuckled lightly. “Mr. Silver, you seem to forget who you are. You are not just the richest billionaire in New York, you are the richest in the world. No matter how bad your business goes, you would definitely have a heavy sum to help us with.” Mr. Smith said. Ava could not believe the shamelessness of her adoptive father. He was still asking for mo

I told you he would be expecting us.” Lily announced to the security guards who were trying to prevent her and her family from coming into the office. Ava’s countenance immediately changed on seeing her adoptive family here. Wasn’t it clear that they no longer had anything in common and she owed them nothing? Why was she also saying that Damien was expecting them? "Good day, sir. They came in and insisted that they wanted to see you. The receptionist informed them that they needed to get an appointment first before they could get an audience with you, but they were so adamant that you were expecting them. We tried to stop them, but…" One of the guards explained with a shrug. Damien raised his hand in the air, stopping the guard and all the noise that was filtering into his office.

  • SILVER'S CONTRACT    Get Used To It

    Chapter 104: Get Used To ItAva walked into Silver Cooperation with a spring to her steps. She had refused to believe Damien when he told her she was coming with him to the office that morning. She had thought it would be against his ethics to have her work with him as it is now public knowledge that the both of them are married. Moreover, he wasn't fully recovered yet. He still had some appointments with the doctor. “Good morning, Mr. Silver.” The employees on sight all bowed to him as he walked into the office building. “Good morning, Mrs. Silver.” They all followed suit with her. She was momentarily shocked by the gesture as this was the first time anyone was ever bowing to her. All her life, she had done the bowing to other people and made to do dirty jobs. She spun around watching the employees all bow down to her. Despite how much she wanted to get acquainted with it, it still felt surreal to her. “Hey, get used to it. You are the boss’s wife.” He beamed at her. The recepti

    Chapter 103: Talk To Me.Ava stepped into the hot tub and let out a breath. It has been hours since she returned to Mr. Silver’s house. In this short while, she has been treated with so much respect that she had never for once imagined possible. She settled into the hot bubbling water and the stress and tension of the day eased off her body in no time. Despite the calm that was settling into her muscles and bones, a recurring question was dancing through her head - why did Mr. Silver want her back? She still couldn't wrap her head around how fast he had switched. The first thing he had said to her after waking up was that he never wanted to see her again around him and days later, he had come begging at her doorstep. Something had to have led to his change of heart and she really needed to know why. "Someone looks to be lost in so many thoughts." He whispered in her ear as his hands snaked up her waist and pulled her barely covered buttcheeks to his groin. A satisfying sigh escape

How was Ava back at their house and worse of all, she was in her brother’s arms, clutching tightly to him. “Damien, what is this woman doing here?” She pulled her brother away from Ava. Her eyes shot daggers at Ava and if looks could kill, Ava would have fallen dead at this point. “What do you mean by that? She is my wife. She is meant to be here. This is where she belongs.” He answered his sister. “But…” She tried to object when Damien raised up a hand signaling that there was no need for her to talk at all. "No buts, Sophia. My wife is back home and the same respect you accord to me, you must accord the same respect to her." He ordered. Sophia glared at her brother and the smug smile on Ava's face only managed to make her super angry. The little snake she had tried to keep away from her brother was back in her life. "Damien, wh
