Billionaire Defiant Wife Chapter 370
Advertisement
Fortunately, Evan was wearing diving gloves on his hands. As lobster claws clamped him hard, he should feel some pain.
Avery took a deep breath and watched Evan catching the lobster and shaking the lobster in the tank.
She gave him a thumbs-up but did not relax. A considerable shark has swum to Evan.
Avery covered her mouth and pointed to the shark. Evan turned his head and saw it too, and he was stunned.
The shark swam faster to Evan, opening its mouth and revealing its sharp teeth.
Avery panicked, patted the tank hard, and tried to distract the shark with sound. Holding lobster in his hand, Evan swam forward. But the shark seemed to stare at Evan, chasing him.
"Get the staff to save him." Avery slapped the tank hard, shouting at Robert.
She was scared that the shark would eat Evan.
Robert was awkward about the play directed by Mr. Howel. Would Mr. Howel exile him if he revealed the secret now?
Thinking about it, he went backstage and pretended to call the staff.
At this time, there was a startling voice outside the tank, "Ah! Evan! Watch out!"
The shark opened its mouth and wanted to bite Evan, but the shark was still half a meter away from Evan.
But Avery was so nervous that she beat the toughened glass of the tank with her fist.
She couldn't feel the pain because her hands were dumb.
Evan turned around and glanced at Avery, who was crying because of fear. He hurriedly pressed the Shark Stopper on his anklet, a tool for driving out sharks through sound waves.
Sure enough, the shark quickly turned around and swam away from Evan.
Evan swam to Avery quickly, and Avery still clenched her fist against the glass wall.
Evan took off his gloves, stretched out his hand, and attached it to Avery's hand through the glass as if he was comforting her.

Avery was really scared just now though she was always bold. When the person she really cared about was in danger, she wouldn't be strong any longer.
Evan spread out his palm and pressed it on the glass. Avery also loosened her fist and spread out her palm across the glass.
The two people's palms were attached to each other. At this moment, their hearts were more closely linked than at any time.
Evan suddenly withdrew his hand, then drew a heart on the glass, and then pointed to her.
He was saying that he loved her.
Avery did not expect him to show his love to her in that way.
Then she burst into tears.
She also drew a heart on the glass and then pointed at him.
Evan swam happily with the lobster on the other hand.
Robert stood silently behind Avery and wondered why he was always single.
In addition to catching lobster, Evan took some oysters, asked the staff to pack them, and carried them out with plastic bags.
Avery rushed into his arms and hugged his waist tightly. She seldom took the initiative to do anything intimate like this.
"Are you frightened?" Evan rubbed her head.
"Don't do it again. It's too dangerous."
"I'm sorry. I won't scare you again next time." Evan patted her from her chestnut hair down to her back.
Then the staff ran out and gave Evan something in a black ring, "Sir, you forgot your Shark Stopper."
Robert silently took it. Avery raised her head, "What is this?"
Robert was so nervous. Was the secret going to be revealed?
But Evan said honestly, "It's a magic device to drive the shark away. The shark won't come near me when it's on. The shark was actually domesticated and rushed to play with me."

"..."
Avery took her hands back on Evan's waist, "Why didn't you say it earlier. It scared me."
She was really scared just now.
"I just want to see you worrying about me, and there's something unexpected."
"What is it?"
Evan hugged her with a domineering backhand and said, "You just showed your love to me."
"No." Avery gave him a look and tried to push him away, but he hugged her more tightly.
"You did it!" Evan looked at her, bowed his head, and said in her ear, "You just said you love me."
Evan was satisfied. If he didn't guide her, she would probably never tell him her love. He decided to let her say it to him next time.
Avery buried her head in front of his chest and stopped denying it.
After they came out of the seafood market, they didn't go to the residence arranged by Mr. Arlington, but to a castle in the suburbs.
"Mr. Howel, Mrs. Howel." The servants have lined up to greet them. Some servants wanted to go forward to pick up the bag in the hands of Evan, but Robert blocked them.
Mr. Howel wanted to take it himself. Even if Robert wanted to help him, he was decisively refused.
Evan held Avery's hand in one hand while carrying seafood; on the other hand, "How do you want to eat the seafood?"
Avery frowned, "You know how to cook it?"
Evan nodded his head, "I did learn to cook it a little bit."
Thinking that he had cooked for her for the first time, Avery dared not imagine what would happen.
Pregnant women cannot eat anything raw.
"How about roasting seafood?" It's a relatively simple and safest way.
"Okay."
The young servants behind them were envious. Mr. Howel not only caught lobster himself but also would roast lobster himself for Mrs. Howel.
Because it was night, Avery couldn't see the whole picture of the castle. Before entering the castle, she looked up. In the moonlight, she saw the unique Bauhinia sign on the eaves of the castle.
"It's your castle?" There were so many properties in the Howel family, but she didn't expect he would have such a magnificent castle in Country B.
"It's our castle." Evan seriously corrected her words, "When I get back this time, I'll have my lawyer write your name on the property ownership certificates."
"There is no need." Avery blurted out, and she didn't want to be misunderstood that she was coming back to him for fortune.
Evan suddenly stopped his feet, "It's your habit to refuse me?"
