"Mom, today is a happy day. Don't let others who aren't related to you feel awful. I'll accompany you for a few rounds."
Tammy instructed the maids at home to set up the table, and she sit by the table with her mother in her arms. She was the eldest daughter, the one who had always been the best at coaxing Eva Anderson.Eva, Tammy, Susana, Jace, and her wife just happened to be sitting together at the table. Angie was placed elegantly at the side, gracefully sitting on the leather sofa in the living room."Avery, when do you and Blake plan to have children?" Eva touched her badge and said without any warning."Huh?" Avery’s thoughts could not keep up with the rhythm of the scenario."You’ve been married for three years, yet there's no progress. Isn't she working in the hospital? Since she's free, she's going to check if there's anything wrong with her body.""Oh,” Avery replied perfunctorily, she touched his card and without looking at it, she threw it out."Yes, Thirteen. Kill them all." Tammy laughed as she pushed the cards in front of her away.Eva looked at Avery, "You really know how to play cards.”Avery lowered her head, the light in her eyes lowered, and her small white face turned pale.On the side, Tammy did not know how to deal with this situation."Mom, we're still young, so there's no rush with children." Blake timely walked over and intimately wrapped his arms around his mother's neck.Eva showed a rare smile on her face, and patted his arm, "Are you still young despite running for three years? When your dad was your age, Tammy was in primary school. Blake, stop being so sloppy. If you don't get us a grandchild next year, don't blame me for giving you two some punishment.""Got it, Mom,” Blake casually replied.After accompanying her mother-in-law through eight rounds, Eva felt that it was even more tiring than doing surgery for an entire day.In front of the bathroom's makeup mirror, Avery was leaning on the sink with both hands. Her face was haggard, and the corners of her mouth had a fake smile that she didn't manage to hide in time. Walking into Andersons' main hall, she wore this mask.Just then, the door was pushed open. Angie walked in with her high heels and opened up her makeup bag by her side.Her lips curled up in an arrogant smile as she turned to look at Avery, extending her beautiful long hands, "You must be Avery. I have heard Blake mention you often, so I want to get to know you formally. I am Angie Lopez.""Hello." Avery nodded calmly, turned, and left. She really didn't want to be in the same space as this woman.She pushed open the door and left, and Angie followed her out quickly, "Avery, I want to talk to you."Avery subconsciously stopped and turned her head, "Miss Lopez, we don't seem to be familiar with each other. I don't think we have anything in common. "Angie smiled charmingly, and walked in front of her step by step, "Let’s talk about Blake, how about it?"Avery slightly raised her chin, and a trace of ridicule could be seen on her lips, "I'm sorry, I'm not used to talking about my husband with strangers. If only …""Blake!" Without waiting for Avery to finish speaking, Angie suddenly raised her voice, her bright eyes suddenly looking behind her, at the same time looking past her towards the man behind her.“Blake, we were talking about you just now." Angie held Blake’s arm intimately and naturally."And?” he replied indifferently, his deep gaze landing on Avery’s body, with a few traces of probing.Avery lowered her head slightly and coldly stared at their folded arms. Her heart felt a slight stabbing pain.Without leaving a trace, he pulled Angie’s hand and looked at her, "Let’s get back to the living room ."It was obvious that he wanted to push her away.Avery’s gaze shifted upwards and tightly stared into his eyes. However, she could never understand the profoundness of his eyes, and the warmth in his eyes had never been displayed for her sake.She felt that she was very useless because she had run away. She did not want to see them showing off their love in front of her ever again. How laughable that she even wanted to deceive herself to maintain this marriage.The instant she brushed past his shoulders, Blake seemed to see the tears in her eyes. The sound of her high heels hitting the ground became faster and faster, and she disappeared around the corner of the stairs as if she was escaping."Blake." Angie smiled and rested her head on his shoulder.Blake’s eyes turned slightly cold, and pushed her away without leaving a trace, "What are you doing here?""What is it? Are you afraid that your wife will be misunderstood? " Angie laughed playfully, taking the opportunity to lean on his chest, "Who asked you to not pick up the phone, so here I am. I come to find you."Blake frowned, and gently pushed her away, lowering his head to look at her eyes, "Angie, this is not a place to cause trouble, I have already called Aunt Audrey, the car is waiting outside, you can go back first."Angie pouted, and unwillingly nodded her head, "Alright, I will go, I won't make things difficult for you, but, you have to give me a reward okay?" The moment she finished speaking, she quickly tiptoed and kissed Blake on the lips, then ran away with a smile.Blake wiped the corner of his lips with his fingertips helplessly.She had not changed, and when she made a fuss she was like a child. In a trance, the scene before his eyes overlapped with his memories. Once upon a time, she just loved to jump into his arms and give him a helpless kiss like this.Angie Lopez was his first love and the school's beauty. More than half the boys in the school had fallen in love with her. At that time, he chased after her crazily. He even carried his guitar and sang all-night-long love songs under her dormitory building.After four years of university, their love was so passionate. He had never thought that she would one day separate from her. However, on the eve of graduation, she resolutely proposed to break up and travel overseas with another man.It was a dark and gloomy day. At that time, he was waiting outside Angie’s house day and night, but there was no news of her. Then, after many years, on the day of his marriage with Avery, she returned with a body riddled with scars.Eva sat on the sofa with a cold expression. Tammy pulled the corner of his clothes and asked in a low voice, "What exactly happened to you two? Avery drove away. ""Which way did she go? I'll go find her. " Blake frowned, he picked up the car keys and ran out, completely ignoring his mother's complaints.The sky gradually darkened as neon lights flashed on both sides of the road. Blake’s car drove very fast, and finally found Avery’s little beetle at the end of the road. The car crashed into a tree branch, and the window of the car shattered. His heart was thumping hard, he stepped on the throttle and parked the car, then got off the car in a hurry to check.The door to the car was opened, but there was no one inside, while Avery was curled up, sitting un
"Avery?" At this moment, the man also saw her. The astonishment on his handsome face turned to sadness. He didn't expect that in order to avoid her, he would even switch to a different hospital.Three years, exactly three years. This was the first time Avery had appeared in front of him. Three years ago, she threw him a slap in the face and left. When they met again three years later, it was like this."Avery, you, are you alright?" Alex’s hoarse voice had a hint of a sob.Avery was silent, in the shadows, her lips curled up into a self-deprecating smile. Memories poured out of her mind like a tide, pressing down on her so hard she could barely breathe.That year, her dependent grandmother suddenly died. Then she overheard her mother and father talking, and her mother firmly opposed taking her home to raise her. She wanted her to perish on her own. This succession of attacks was undoubtedly fatal for a 17-year-old girl. Then, Avery carried her grandmother's burn and somehow stood on t
"It's too late. If we don't start the operation soon, she will die.""I don't agree,” Alex said firmly. He would rather become a murderer than let Avery get hurt again."If you don't sign the agreement, I will have the operation done. I will be responsible for any consequences." Avery passed him and entered the operating room."Avery!" Alex chased after her but was stopped by the nurse.“I’m sorry, sir. The patient's family members are not allowed inside. "Alex squatted on the ground in defeat, picked up the surgical confirmation letter, and signed his name without hesitation. He put his head in his hands, and the pain on his face intensified. This was the Avery Foster that he knew, so kind that it made others feel helpless.Avery spent the whole night in the office, looking exhausted. Dina pushed the door and walked in, bringing a cup of warm coffee in front of her, "Isn't the operation over? Why aren't you going home? ""Willa’s condition is still unstable, I can't leave." Avery ra
Avery’s eyes were filled with tears as her cold little hands were wrapped around his warm palm. She allowed him to lead her out of the room, but at this moment, the door was pushed open from the outside.Avery’s father was originally observing from outside and knew that something had happened to Willa."Avery, what's going on?" Jake Foster asked."Dad …" Seeing her father, the grievances in Avery’s heart gushed out. She choked with sobs, unable to say a single word."Dad!" Willa suddenly threw herself into Jake’s embrace and cried miserably. She trembled as she pointed her finger at Avery, staring at him fiercely as if she was the sinner who committed heinous crimes. “Dad, Avery was just jealous. She was jealous that I was pregnant with Alex’s child, so she took the opportunity to take away my child and even cut off my womb. Dad, I can't be a mother anymore. ""Dad, it's not like that …" Avery helplessly shook her head, her voice trembling as though she wanted to explain, but her voic
He deeply kissed her, her tenderness turning into ferocity. Her lips and tongue were entangled, and Avery felt that it was getting harder and harder to breathe. His hand gently caressed her face, but the warmth from his palm was still extremely hot.Blake was startled, and hurriedly let go of her."You’re having a fever.""Hmm, it might be because of the rain, but I'll be fine after a bit of sleep." She move his hand from her forehead but held it tight.Blake carried her into his bedroom and fed her the medicine while rummaging through the drawers. Lying on the soft bed, Avery quickly fell asleep. She kept holding onto his hand, probably because of a fever. Her little face was red, and her brow was slightly furrowed. She looked like a helpless little girl who had lost her sense of security.Blake sat by her bedside, staring at her with a smile on his face. His hand gently caressed her cheeks, "Don't be afraid.”The sleeping Avery turned her body over and over, as she moaned in a low t
Blake nodded politely, turned, and left. The door made a slight opening and closing sound.The moment he left, Angie, who was on top of the sickbed, opened her eyes. A hint of a ridiculing smile could be seen in her eyes."Mom, why is it that when a relationship is over, a man can turn around without any delay while a woman can't? Did he love me? Why am I the only one who was lonely right now?""Silly girl, don't think too much. If he doesn't love you, then he wouldn't have come to your side regardless of everything that happens to you.""Mom, no matter what the price is, I have to go back to Blake. I have to go back to him."When Blake drove the car back to the villa, the huge villa sunk into a deathly silence. He searched through the dozen or so rooms upstairs and downstairs but didn't find anyone at all. He immediately panicked.When he found Avery on the roof, she was sitting on the fence with her feet in the air. The morning sun dyed her lonely back red, but it could not warm tha
The elevator stopped at the twelfth-floor maternity ward. Avery changed into a white coat and started to inspect the ward. When she passed by the door of Willa’s ward, a loud noise came from inside."When will I be able to leave the hospital? How long do you want me to stay in this damned place?""Miss Foster, you have to observe for a few more days before you can leave the hospital." The head nurse explained patiently."How much longer do I have to stay? Can you return my child? Or can it make my womb grow back?” Willa’s howls were also accompanied by the sound of porcelain shattering.Hearing that, Avery sighed helplessly, and then pushed open the door to the ward and walked in. "Sis, I hope that you can face reality. Although the child is gone, you still have one side of the fallopian tube and part of the womb for you to take care of. As a test tube baby, you still have hope of being a mother.""It's all bullshit, I don't want to hear it! You shameless devil, scram; I don't want to
Avery dragged her twisted leg and limped over, then opened the door in the direction of the passenger seat. Without waiting for her to sit still, Blake stepped on the throttle, and the car shot out like an arrow.The car remained silent. She could clearly feel ice-cold anger coming from the side, she didn't know what Blake was angry about. Besides, the one who should be angry should be her.The car drove into the manor and stopped in front of the villa. The two of them sat in their seats, neither of them moving. The long silence made the atmosphere inside the car extremely depressing, making it hard to breathe.In the end, Avery was not as calm as Blake, she felt the stifling sensation in the car was unbearable, and subconsciously reached out to push the door, but Blake’s movements were even faster. He neatly locked the door, then grabbed her wrist and roughly pulled her into her chest."What are you crazy about …" Avery only had time to utter half a sentence before Blake’s lips press
Trevor had given more than enough face by driving the car himself. He was the quickest person, always the one who could not stay idle. Through the rearview mirror, he saw Angie's indifferent and calm face."Aiyo, Miss Lopez seems to be in good shape today. It looks like she's not sick. I was still worried when we arrived. If you go crazy in my car, I'll directly push you out of the car or send you to a mental hospital."His joke made Angie's face change, "I'm not crazy."Trevor shrugged his shoulders and laughed, thinking: When she went crazy, he was a madman."Did Blake ask you to come to me?" Angie asked again."Do you think I'm willing?" Trevor was still smiling mischievously.However, Trevor, who was in front of her, suddenly splashed a bucket of cold water. "Miss Lopez, don't be so emotional. Mr. Anderson fears you will have a sickness that will hurt his precious little face."Angie's rosy complexion immediately became pale, her fists clenched tightly. She swore that she would ta
Blake was silent for a moment. His tall and big body was utterly shrouded in darkness, "What if I say that I don't care?""Do you know what you're talking about, Blake?" Even Esme, who was pointing at his arm, was trembling slightly. “I think that girl completely bewitches you. Do you know what bloodlines are? When you get to my age, it'll be too late to regret it. ""I won't regret it." Blake's words were firm, and each word was loud and clear. He would never regret loving Avery.After speaking, he picked up his suit jacket from the sofa. It was already very late, and he still had to rush back to get Avery up and take some medicine. Aunt, Dad, I didn't come back to quarrel. I know that you all are doing this for my good, but you all have never understood what I need. I am thrilled to be together with Avery. "And this kind of happiness was enough to make up for all the shortcomings in his life."What do you know? Do you think saying sweet words when the two of them are in the prime o
The two of them dined in a Western restaurant with a candlelit dinner. It was a romantic and cozy dinner. Under the candlelight, the bright red wine in the wine cup shone brilliantly. Beside the dining table, a professional violinist was playing the violin. The sound of the violin was so long that it was intoxicating.After dinner, Blake drove Avery back to the villa. He stayed with her, watching her sleep.Avery's sleeping visage was quiet, her delicate, long eyelashes casting a shadow over her skin.He carefully covered the corner of her blanket, his movements extremely gentle. He was afraid that he would wake the sleeping girl. Avery, good night, a good dream. "He bent over and kissed Avery's forehead, then stood up and left.The car broke through the night and sped along the road, its destination being the villa at Anderson Family.Blake walked into the house. In the living room, General Anderson and Esme were talking, and the niece was playing with bricks by the side. She wore a
Prof. Johnson shook his head and sighed. He didn't know if he should call her stubborn or stupid. "80%." The professor of Prof. Johnson answered in a straight line.Avery was motionless, with a frown between her brows, when she heard Prof. Johnson add, "Mortality rate is 80%, so I hope you won't take the risk. To exchange one's life for another is, in medicine, an act of folly. "Walking out of the hospital's gate, Avery looked up at the sky, her small face pale to the point of transparency. It was obviously warm, like spring, but Avery suddenly felt cold. Her lead white hands gripped her collar tightly, pulling her outer robes tightly, still feeling cold."Ma'am, shall we go back?" The driver came over.Avery shook her head, "Take me to the amusement park. I want to relax.""Alright, alright." The driver eagerly opened the door for Avery.The amusement park had always been a paradise for children, but it was also spring. The children's laughter could be heard constantly from the amus
So it was a different time.Now, she was crowned with such a big hat in the name of love. Even more so, Avery couldn't bear it. The noble ladies of the upper class were naturally qualified politicians. If Avery still didn't leave after taking her big hat, she would become the executioner who destroyed Blake's life, causing his life to be incomplete.However, at this moment, the elegantly dressed woman sitting in front of her, who had always been aloof and aloof, did she know what love was?Love is not only to achieve, love or not to leave, but love is also to stick to; love is always together.Avery knew that it was impossible to have children and that her life was destined to be incomplete. She never had selfishly wanted Blake to be as vague as her, but she only wanted him to stay by her side for one more month, one more day, or even every minute and second.Her suffering, her pain, who could understand it?Avery's eyes became moist, but she smiled: "What do you want me to do?" After
When Blake returned to the bedroom, Avery was still awake. She said that she was tired, and that was just an excuse.Avery stood before the bedroom window, quietly looking out in that direction. She just so happened to see Audrey's car leave."What are you thinking about?" He took her in his arms from behind and held her gently in his arms.Avery silently shook her head.Blake sighed, "Can't you forgive her? Avery, Dr. Zuri plotting to kill you had nothing to do with Aunt Audrey. She's just like you, and she's a very kind person. ""Can you not talk about this?" Avery turned around and hugged him, her head gently resting on his chest."Mm. Alright." Blake replied warmly, his eyes deep and serene. He knew that Avery was escaping."You should go to the hospital for reexamination tomorrow. Sleep early, and I'll accompany you there tomorrow.""Alright." Avery complied, taking out the soft silk pajamas from the closet, then she walked into the bathroom."Avery." He suddenly called after he
Her words made Blake's face darken instantly, "Avery, do you know what you're saying? You're going to push me to someone else, aren't you? "His deep gaze fell on her, sharp with a trace of helplessness and sadness. His two fingers suddenly exerted force, extinguishing the cigarette's tip at his fingertips.Avery's head was pressed down very low, and her ice-cold little hands grabbed onto his warm and thick palm. Her voice was timid, like a child afraid of being punished for something wrong, "I, I didn't mean that.""What does that mean?" Blake was a little angry. What he disliked the most was her everyday look. She was always filled with sympathy, and she always quickly pushed him away, making him feel like she did not care about him at all."I just feel sorry for her." Avery's voice was getting lower and lower."She is not pitiful, and it has nothing to do with you. It has nothing to do with me. " Blake replied as he carried her and turned to walk back into the villa."Avery, I don'
It turned out that the night had already begun to sink.“You’re back.” She gave him a soft, gentle smile.Blake squatted before her and gently caressed her pale face with his palm. How long have you been here? “My body is so cold.”“It wasn’t long. The room is too stuffy, so I came out to get some fresh air.” Avery replied indifferently.Blake smiled, and without saying anything further, he carried her up from the ground and walked into the villa, “Didn’t you go to the department store earlier this morning? What did you buy?”“Nothing.” Avery casually replied.“Oh? Didn’t you have high-end female clothing? “Blake asked. Avery had bound his phone with his gold card in the morning, his family had clearly swiped some money, and he was still happy that his woman had finally learned to spend his money, but Avery’s gold card had bound his phone, and in the morning, his family’s gold card had obviously swiped some money, and he was still happy that his woman had finally learned to spend his
Dina did not care about the Lee family members and pounced towards Quizza's face but was stopped by a cold voice."Dina." Avery, who had been silent all this time, had finally opened her mouth. She stood up and slowly walked over, her beautiful eyes slightly narrowed, and the gaze that landed on Quizza's body carried a faint iciness."And who are you? "Mind your own business." Quizza's best friend was the first to speak.Avery smiled gently, the corners of her lips slightly raised, ethereal, and beautiful. I am Avery Foster, the ex-wife of Blake you all mentioned before, who can't give birth to a child and can die at any time. "Quizza was slightly shocked, and she sized Avery up from top to bottom. She was indeed a wonderful woman, with a faint and elegant temperament, remarkably similar to a bit of daisy that bloomed in the sun during the summer, but in her eyes, Avery was not an obstacle for her on her path forward because her disease did not even cause her the right to enter the J
