Billionaire Defiant Wife Chapter 424
Advertisement
Avery put her thin and small hands on her belly, saying, "In fact, I also got a disease when I was young."
Rebecca was surprised at what Avery said. She couldn't understand why Avery said that.
"The disease I got sounded strange: an eye for an eye," Avery warned.
Rebecca was shocked at Avery's performance. Avery looked beautiful, and her voice was calm. Rebecca now knew why all men loved her.
Rebecca was jealous of Avery and even destroyed her.
"I can't kill her, but I can torment her," Rebecca thought to herself and started to make a plan.
Then Rebecca smiled gently, "You made a mistake. I didn't put the spiders in the room. I see. Since you are scared of the spiders, I can ask a maid to check again and ensure whether there is a spider or not."
Avery raised her lips. She must warn Rebecca and tell her it isn't good for her because Rebecca was a vicious woman.
Rebecca pretended to ask a servant to check all the presidential palace clear. But when she got out of Avery's room, she whispered to her private maid, "check Avery's phone and find a photo of the president."
Then Rebecca added, "Bring a bottle of sulfuric acid for me. Be careful."
"Yes, Madam."
As soon as Rebecca left, Avery immediately sent a servant out and closed the door.
When the door was almost closed, a hand suddenly showed up and tried to open the door.
"You?" looking through the gap of the door, Avery found Evan was standing outside the door. He held the door with his fingers and tried to open the door.
Avery knew Evan wanted to say something. Since some servants were walking around the hall, Avery let Evan in. She turned around and closed the door immediately.

"All right. What do you want to say?"
Evan slowly squatted down and observed her wound. The wound had been bandaged and covered with gauze carefully, and her toes were also covered with gauze. You couldn't even see the wound.
But Evan recalled the scene when Avery's toes were full of blood.
Although it was not a big deal, Evan felt hurt deeply.
Avery felt uncomfortable when someone stared at her toes. She stepped back consciously, but Evan stopped her and held his ankle immediately.
"A lot of pain?"
Avery stared at Evan's hand and said dazedly, "Which answers do you want to get? pain or not?"
"I got a lot of pain."
"Uh-huh—"
Avery couldn't help sneer, "Oh, you hurt. Of course, you abandoned your wife. How couldn't you get a lot of pain?"
Evan's heart broke at the words Avery said. She had blamed him so many times, but whenever she said, Evan felt sad as if a needle pricks his heart again and again.
Evan lowered his head slowly and touched Avery's ankle again and again with his rough thumb. When he touched Avery's skin, he felt safe.
Evan was shocked by the scene when he sat on the floor, and it was full of blood.
Avery unconsciously brought her feet back, but she failed.
Evan held her ankle tight. If Avery tries everything to get her feet back, she probably falls on the ground.
Evan was afraid that Avery would fall, so he stood up and took her to the sofa. Evan didn't stand up, but leaned against Avery, saying, "I shouldn't put my phone on the coffee table. I missed your calling. I'm sorry," Evan said.
The warm breath was in Avery's face. The thin and short hair on her face seemed to be softened. Evan's voice was attractive and loud, which made Avery immersed, and her ears turned red.

Evan wanted to love Avery again, but he had to save Diana, he had no choice.
"Avery never trusts me. Although we had many experiences, she is cold to me," Evan thought to himself.
Avery was silent. She didn't know what she should say. She couldn't understand Evan.
Then Evan clasped Avery's hands. He raised her hands and kissed the back of her hand, saying sincerely, "Give me some time. I will make everything done. All right?"
It was probably the first time that Evan talked to her in such a humble way. Avery couldn't help smile and be at a loss.
Soon, Avery asked, "How long?"
Evan presumed that Avery would refuse and laughed at him, but he never expected that Avery would ask him how long he can make everything done. Evan felt happy and thought about it throughout.
"One month?" Avery stared at Evan.
Evan said nothing.
"Six months?" Avery asked. She couldn't stop laughing at herself, "Oh, I forget it. Diana needs at least six months to prevent herself from drug addiction. But six months later, if Diana recovers, I am not sure you will be with me."
"Moreover, why should I wait for you? I am still young, and I am a beautiful woman. I still have the chance to get married to a good man. For example, Mr. Clifford loves me so much. For saving me, he had been thrust heavily and hospitalized. Probably, it is an excellent choice for me, "Avery then added.
Evan felt depressed again when Avery mentioned that Andrew saved her because he recalled the thing that he chose to save Diana and gave up on her.
When Evan was going to make an explanation, someone knocked on the door.
"Evan, are you here? I had something in your room, but you are not in the room. Are you here?"
Avery pulled her hands back and put them before her chest. "Wow, how strict she is!" She.." she jeered.
Evan stopped Avery. He leaned over and took a bite on her lips, "You mustn't love that bear."
"I think you are more like a bear than Andrew," Avery was on the edge of the sofa now. Evan still held her waist; otherwise, she must fall.
Rebecca was still knocking on the door. Avery couldn't help sneer, "Do you want me to wait for you? All right. I can wait for you. Now you took Rebecca here and let her apologize to me, can you? If you can, I can wait for you for one month."

The Light Bringer
Would you leave behind everything you knew to live the life of another version of yourself? A version from a land where status sceens, levels, dwarfs, elves, beastkin and monsters were real? A world where limits were not set in stone and danger or adventure could be around every corner? If you stopped and thought about it, I think you would conclude it was a bad idea. But for a guy like William Taylor who actually got to make this theoretical choice, he chose yes. He's learning to regret that very quickly. But maybe one day he won't, if he lives long enough ------ Just some details about what this story will be like. This is more a character story than a story about leveling up and becoming OP. That may happen in time but don't expect it any time too soon. The MC has no powers that he brings into the world. He just has to do the best he can with his wits, knowledge and will to succeed. Also it's only fair to warn people this series has a bit of a slow start. 1 chapter a week with occasional bonus chapters.

A Beholder's Path
Hello, it’s me, Aether. As a beholder, curiosity is the driving force of my existence, which is why when I found a new world close to mine, I just had to tear a passage through spacetime to explore it. The rest of the demon world may or may not have used this passage to invade, but I am sure all the sentient races of that world would agree a demon apocalypse is definitely in the top ten best things that could happen to them.

Criminal Lord
Terry Isenburg, the greatest assassin who killed thousands of powerful officials and even led an army of people to reform the world had finally killed his final target after many years of suffering and effort. Changing the world was in sight. Until he was betrayed... Although, even in the abyss of death, two choices were placed before Terry. Enter the Trial or Hell? Watch how the man who nearly took over the world now attempts to take over a world of sword, monster, magic, and one hella strong tarantula... I made this story because I always wanted a dark fantasy isekai with a hella fine backstory rather than an idiot being run over as well as having sustainable, epic scenes with a badass main character. All of which I believe my story has. (Although I'm bad at managing levels and experience and I have little imagery since I hate imagery) One other thing, the first volume may be kinda boring/repetitive but I can guarantee loads of badass action in volume 2 so please stick around. (I would also appreciate the views) If you like or dislike the story, please write a comment or review about this story to help me improve, but please don't hate on the story without explaining why. I also hope that you readers share the story to give me more support. Thanks and I hope you enjoy the story. [The cover is something I made poorly but it represents something in chapter 9-10]
