"You won't leave your date, I came with Avery, I should be responsible for her" Zeno said and went to check the restroom .Minutes later, Zeno returned."Did you find anything?" Tobias asked."No. Whoever made Avery like this was gone before I got there," Zeno replied, turning to Avery. "Come on, princess, let's take you home."As they drove, Zeno said, “I’m sorry about what happened. I feel ashamed that you keep getting into trouble at my place.”“It’s not your fault, Zeno. The restaurant is big, and you can’t be everywhere at once.”"By the way, what happened there?""Some guy tried to harass me, but I managed to escape from him""Forgive me, I’ll hire more security and install better surveillance. It should help,” Zeno promised.“That would definitely help. Thanks for tonight; I’m sorry I ruined everything.”Immediately Zeno stopped the car, he turned to Avery and said."Please, don’t wear clothes like this again—except for me.”“Get out of my car right now!” Zeno laughed as he

Meanwhile, at the back of the hall, Currie and her bridesmaids were getting ready for the wedding.Just then, one of the bridesmaids left the room and went into the corridor to make a call.At the same time, Axel, Currie's husband, walked into the corridor. Seeing the bridesmaids, he was shocked and pulled her aside.“What are you doing here, Lorie?” he asked.“Axel! I thought you traveled to Mexico and wouldn't be back until next month. What the heck are you doing at Currie's wedding?” Lorie was surprised. Axel was supposed to be in Mexico, not at her best friend's wedding.Why would he lie to her? Was he avoiding her?“You've been avoiding my calls and lying to me. What's going on?,” “That's not my question. What are you doing here?” Axel asked, his mouth trembling.“This is my friend's wedding, and I'm one of the bridesmaids,” Lorie replied.Just then, Currie walked into the corridor and saw Axel and Lorie talking. She moved closer.“Here you are, sweet. The wedding is about to s

Abel stared at his pitiable sister and the woman who had stolen his heart the moment he first saw her that evening.When Avery and Lucy arrived, Abel fought the swirl of emotions building up in his stomach. It took all his willpower to restrain himself from leaping forward like a child whose mother had just bought new toys.Determined to let Avery settle in before approaching her, he found that the crowd greeting and paying their respects didn’t give him the chance to do so.Then, when things seemed to calm down, Avery stood up and walked down the corridor. Seeing it as an opportunity, Abel followed, only to find out what Axel did.“Don’t make me face more humiliation, Brother Abel. I don’t want to be here,” Currie whined, clutching him tightly.Left with no other choice, Abel carried Currie out of the room without looking back at Avery.Avery’s heart shattered. How could Abel ignore her after all these years?Her eyes stung as she watched him walk away with Currie."Get over it, Ave

Avery walked into Hector's room and stopped in her tracks, stunned.Sitting on the bed was Hector, looking handsome as ever. His strong, symmetrical features immediately drew her attention. His defined cheekbones and well-shaped jawline only enhanced his already striking appearance.But it was his ocean-blue eyes that captivated her the most. Filled with warmth and intensity, they locked onto Avery’s gaze, making her heart skip a beat.A smile tugged at his lips, radiating both charm and approachability. There was a natural charisma about him that instantly put Avery at ease.Only a few months ago, Hector had been a shadow of himself. But now, just four weeks after the surgery, he had rapidly recovered—and looked even more handsome than before.“How are you doing today?” Avery asked, focusing on her professional duties as she checked his vitals.“You can see for yourself,” Hector replied with a grin. “I’m fine.”“Glad to hear that. I can see you’re ready to go home,” she said.“I can’

“We can’t find him!” The principal’s voice trembled with fear. She couldn’t understand how this could have happened. How would she explain this to Avery? How could she hurt Clinton’s grandson?Mrs. Green, equally shaken, dropped the book she was holding onto the table. Without another word, both women rushed out of the classroom, panic overtaking them.“I’ll check outside,” Mrs. Green said, her voice tight with worry. The two women hurried through the school, searching desperately for Aaron, but after a thorough search, they found nothing. They returned to the principal’s office where Avery was anxiously waiting.Avery stood immediately when they entered.“Where is my son?” she demanded, her voice shaking.“Please, calm down,” the principal tried to reassure her. “I’m sure he’s just somewhere on the playgrounds. Mrs. Green said he ran out right after the bell rang.”“Mom, someone took Aaron in a car and drove off,” Aerial’s voice quivered with fear.Avery’s heart stopped. “What?” Sh

“The boy is safe, with me at 48 Skylar Villa.”Avery staggered backward, her back hitting the car seat as she slowly pulled the phone from her ear. Her eyes filled with tears. She still remembered that address all too well. *48 Skylar Villa*. It was Abel’s home. How did he know about Aaron?“Princess, what’s wrong with you? Who was that?” Tobias asked, concern flooding his voice.“Take me to Skylar Villa,” Avery replied urgently, her voice shaking with fear.---**Meanwhile, at Skylar Villa...**Abel glanced at the little boy, who was playing happily with his grandfather Bennett, and shrugged.Bennett, who had become nearly impossible to deal with lately, refused to return home. He had been staying with Abel for the past two days, accusing Nora of all sorts of bad behavior. Abel had no choice but to bring him to Skylar Villa.This morning, when Abel had followed Noah to his son’s school, Aaron had walked up to him, taken his hand, and called him "Daddy".Abel felt a strange electric

Aaron ran into his mother’s arms as soon as she walked into the house—the house she had left many years ago, swearing never to return.“How dare you kidnap my son?” Avery’s voice trembled with anger."Abel was stunned. Aaron was Avery's son?"Two weeks ago, he had begged Avery for a date, but she had refused him brutally. Ever since, he had tried to contact her, but she never responded.Currie, still reeling from her failed marriage, wasn’t in any condition to help him.Now, suddenly, Avery appeared at his house, revealing that Aaron was her son. Was she the one who had sent Aaron to confront him?“Avery, Aaron is your son?” Abel’s voice was filled with disbelief.“Why did you kidnap him? Don’t you know I can’t press charges?” Avery shot back, her words sharp with frustration.“Why did you leave with him? You said he wouldn’t be our Daddy anymore!” Aerial told Abel confusion and anger coloring her tone.Both Abel and Avery turned to look at the children, equally surprised.“It doesn’

Avery was about to respond when her phone rang. It was Currie, so she quickly picked it up.“Sister Nuu, please come over to our favorite cafe. I'm bored and need someone to talk to.”Avery thought this was a good opportunity to escape from Abel and said, “I’ll be right there. Give me a few minutes.” She glanced at Abel and added, “I have to go. There’s something important I need to catch up on.” Avery slipped her phone into her handbag and headed for the door before Abel could stop her.Abel regretted that Old Bennett had fallen asleep. If he'd been awake, he would have forced Avery to stay and probably pressured her into confessing the truth.Once Avery arrived home, she sent the children to their room and sat down to tell Tobias what had happened. He was so upset that he gripped the chair's arms tightly. “Abel has no shame,” he said. “Did he expect you to just admit what happened between you two?” Avery sighed. “Now that he’s seen the kids, he won’t rest until he gets a

By the time Avery reached the cafe, Currie had called her over twenty times. “Are you trying to drain my battery with all these calls?” Avery said, sinking into the chair across from Currie.“Sis Nuu, don’t blame me. My heart is broken. Axel and I were supposed to be on our honeymoon in Mexico, but he ruined everything. I don’t know what to do with myself. The coffee here isn’t strong enough. Can we go to the bar across the road and grab a drink? Just a bottle?” Avery hesitated. “Currie, I don’t have the strength to carry a drunk woman. Why don’t you go home and rest instead?” “All I’ve done at home is stare at my wedding dress and cry. I’ll just keep watching it and crying some more. I don’t know what else to do. Please, just buy the bottle. We’ll be out of there quickly.” Seeing how crushed Currie was, Avery relented. “All right, one glass, and then we leave,” she said. Avery hated drinking alone at a bar, especially without any male company. This would be the first time

“Sister Nuu!” Currie called out from behind, unaware of the tense scene unfolding. She approached with a bright smile, holding two martinis, one in each hand.Axel’s eyes narrowed as he spotted her. In a swift, vicious movement, he grabbed her by the neck, pressing the knife close to her skin. Currie’s expression shifted from joy to terror as her hands trembled, the glasses slipping from her grip and shattering on the floor. But with the loud music blaring in the bar, no one noticed the broken glass and the crowd remained absorbed in their worlds, oblivious to the danger just feet away.Axel tightened his hold, leaning close to Currie’s ear with a sickly sweet grin as if they were just two lovers sharing a secret. “Smile, darling,” he whispered. “We don’t want to draw attention, do we?”Currie’s heart raced, but she forced a terrified smile, desperate not to make things worse. Axel gave her a rough shove, guiding her toward the door, their struggle hidden under the guise of a friendl
