"Mr. Lavigne, please believe me. I didn't do it on purpose!" Wendy cried pitifully.However, Eason didn't even glance at her. His eyes were fixed on Avery's pale face. "Xavier, you know what to do.""Yes, Mr. Lavigne," Xavier answered. He then turned to Wendy. "Ms. Sawyer, please follow us."Harry's pupils constricted when he realized Eason was going to deal with this matter formally. He was about to speak when Wendy cried out."Mr. Lavigne, you can't do this to me! I was just following orders from Ms. Hall! If you take me in, she will be implicated too!"As Wendy spoke, she took out her phone and opened her chat history. "Ms. Hall sent me this message. I was only following her orders to get on her good side. I have nothing to do with this!" Xavier took her phone from her and looked at it. It was indeed Summer's number. Wendy: "Ms. Hall, I live in the same dorm as Avery does. If you need anything, just let me know! I'll get it done."Summer: "Is that so? Then make her disap
Eason sighed. "I told you, we're all adults here. Everyone should take responsibility for their actions, myself included."Eason was merely making amends for his mistake regarding Summer, nothing else. Avery blinked in surprise, "You make mistakes too, Mr. Lavigne?" "Of course I do. I'm just an ordinary human. How could I not make mistakes?"His gaze made her heart race, and she felt embarrassed. "I'm sorry, Mr. Lavigne. I seem to always cause you trouble."Eason raised an eyebrow. "To be honest, I really hate trouble."Avery fell silent. Was he saying she was a nuisance? But then he smiled and continued, "But for some reason, when it's your trouble, I don't mind it at all." Avery looked down as she clutched the covers, unsure of what to say.Eason's mood improved after seeing the faint blush appear on her pale face. He chuckled. "Don't overthink it. I just like to speak directly. I don't mean anything else—it's just the truth."Avery blushed even harder.With the heater
Xavier didn't respond and continued driving in silence. Ten minutes later, the car came to a stop in front of Eason's villa.Xavier opened the door for Summer. "Ms. Hall, please get down." Summer took a look at the villa outside and turned crimson in anger. "I asked you to take me to Acadia College. Did you not hear me? Are you going against me on purpose?""I'm sorry, Ms. Hall. I only follow Mr. Lavigne's orders." Xavier remained indifferent the entire time, not falling for Summer's tactics. Summer was helpless and got off. However, she immediately called for another ride. "It's alright if you won't take me! I'll get there myself! I'm going to see for myself if Mr. Lavigne is at Acadia Collage with Avery!"Xavier froze for a moment before saying, "Ms. Hall, I'd advise you not to go at this time. Mr. Lavigne won't want to see you now.""I'm his girlfriend. I have every right to see him! Xavier, you're merely an assistant. Can you really stop me?" Summer, usually polite with X
"Avery, Avery, is that your new boyfriend? He's so handsome!""Oh my God, Avery! Where did you find such a man? He's unbelievably good-looking!""He's not only good-looking, he's such a sweet man too. If he went to our school, he'd blow everyone away!" "Avery, you have such a talent for finding boyfriends! Each man is more handsome and charming than the last. You're so lucky!" Avery's head buzzed from the noise, but she caught a few important words. "Boyfriend?"Right then, the door opened again, and Eason walked in with breakfast. Instantly, more than 10 pairs of eyes turned to him. The earlier clamor died down, and the room fell silent enough to hear a pin drop. They all watched as Eason calmly walked over and placed breakfast on Avery's table. "I brought you breakfast. You should eat something light.""Wow!" The ladies exclaimed as they beamed at Eason. Avery felt embarrassed. "Let me introduce you. This is Mr. Lavigne who works at my company."The ladies were enthus
Avery was making her bed when she heard Eason ask, "Do you have a cup?"She turned around and saw him standing at the bathroom door. He had asked with an earnest expression as he held his toothbrush. She got up, walked over to him, and grabbed her own cup off the shelf. Rinsing it a few times under the tap, she told him, "You can use mine if you don't mind.""Thanks." Eason took it and filled it with water. He then started brushing his teeth. It was as if it was just another day for him. Avery stood at the door. When she saw his mouth touch her cup, her heart skipped a beat. It suddenly occurred to her that he didn't have a towel, so she pointed at a pink towel hanging nearby. "That's my face towel." "Okay." Eason nodded and looked at her through the mirror, a happy smile tugging at his lips. Avery quickly looked away and went back to making her bed. But for some reason, her heart was pounding like crazy.After brushing his teeth, Eason washed the cup thoroughly. For the
After speaking, Avery paused for a few seconds. Seeing that he remained silent, she turned around and started to walk away. A loud honk blared from behind. Avery frowned and quickened her pace. Before long, Harry's car pulled up in front of her. He got out and walked up to her. Blocking her path, he looked down at her stubborn face and said, "Get in the car!"It was early in the morning, and the area around the dormitory was bustling with people. The both of them standing there was not a good sight. Avery held back her temper and asked him, "What exactly do you want?" "I have something to ask you!""Can't you ask me here? Why do I need to get in the car?"Harry was momentarily at a loss for words. He stopped insisting, but stared into her eyes and asked, "Did he stay the night here yesterday?" Avery was taken aback, knowing he meant Eason. Not wanting to cause Eason trouble, she denied it. "No.""No?" I waited downstairs all night and didn't see him leave! It wasn't until
Avery Lloyd moaned as a man peppered her with kisses. She felt like a boat trying to stay afloat amidst crashing ocean waves.It was hard to gauge how long it took for the sex to end. When it was finally over, Avery curled up in the man's warm embrace and fell deeply asleep.The following morning, she flipped onto her side and rested a hand on a warm chest. The strange sensation woke her up. As she slowly opened her eyes, a handsome face came into view."Huh? Mr. Lavigne?" Avery's mind went blank for a few seconds. Then, the memories of the previous night's indulgence flooded her mind.Her eyes widened in disbelief, and she bolted up. The sudden action tugged on a certain spot of her body, making sweat bead on her forehead from the soreness.She felt like she'd been broken into pieces and put back together like a wooden doll. Every movement made her ache.But that was nothing compared to the scene before her—she was in a large tent with messy sheets pooled around her. Eason Lav
Avery felt parched after sleeping for a while. She climbed out of the tent, feeling like her limbs had been filled with lead. Suddenly, a pair of men's sports shoes appeared before her. Her gaze trailed up the long legs.The sun filtered through the clouds, illuminating Eason's handsome face as he looked down at her. It almost made her faint on the spot. "M-Mr. Lavigne?"Hadn't he gone hiking?He crouched before Avery and took in her face, which was red from the fever. He said seriously, "I have a question for you."Avery's heart sank. She licked her dry lips as her heart pounded. "W-What is it?""Did you see anyone enter my tent last night?" Eason looked her in the eyes as he asked this. The dominance he exuded made Avery feel like a hand had clamped around her heart and started squeezing it.Her gaze darted around shiftily as she said, "N-No. I didn't see anything.""Why are you trembling?" He noticed how oddly she was acting.Not only was her voice shaky, but she was also
