Billionaire Defiant Wife Chapter 536
Advertisement
The way Avery saw it, there must be something wrong about their toys, or would her daughter start getting irritated after hearing the music?
Besides, the toys had bright colors. Maybe some chemical elements they contained went beyond the standards.
Sure these were Avery's speculations. But she wouldn't let them. Even if Evan didn't ask to take the toys for tests, she would have.
"Mrs. Howel..."
Evan stared at the fair and gently skin on Avery's neck, couldn't hold back the urge, and started kissing with his thin lips. Avery heard his voice coming from his throats, "You can do whatever you want to me."
"No going back on your words."
"When did I?" Evan slightly lifted his eyebrows, "And you, if the results came back clean, should you take my punishments too? That's the fairway."
Looking at Evan was intrigued, Avery squeezed his lips together and kissed him, "Deal."

The Howel driver dropped gabby off at Florence Hotel. Before she left the Howel's house, she changed into a black dress.
Apart from the leading actors, actress, and some important supporting roles she saw last time, she noticed a new face. She had a thin and structured face. Umm. She looked like an internet celebrity.
Bryan saved her from a place next to him. After she sat down, he said since he noticed Gabby was staring at the new girl, "That's Holly Gibson, the favorite daughter of her dad, influencer. She came from a rich family and went viral by showing off her wealth. And she went to some reality shows."
"And you must be interested in her second identity..." Bryan deliberately paused and said mystically, "Jackson's family chooses her to be his fiancee."
Before Gabby started eating, the hiccup came out...

Bryan patted on her back, ferociously. Gabby was in pain and turned around at him with tears in her eyes, "Bryan, are you trying to kill me?"
"I'm worried that you choke to death. I'm doing you a favor, okay?" Bryan reached out to pinch her face, "You got the leading actress for me. I'm afraid you die before you could act."
"I'm not doing it for you."
"When why do you have to be the leading actress? Playing a bird is fine."
"I have to move forward, and I evolve from a bird to a man. And do I look unambitious to you?"
"No, not at all."
The director, actors, and advertisement business people were exchanging pleasant small talks over glasses of wines. Only she and Bryan, the leading actor and actress, kept whispering.
Then everyone heard a gentle voice, "Bryan and Gabby are so close. Are you two secretly dating?"
She didn't take her eyes off the phone screen while she was talking. If she didn't say names, no one knew who she was referring to.
Gabby was more or less guilty. She was her fiance's girlfriend. So she kept a low profile and didn't speak up, in the hope that the fiancee never knew her existence.
Then the god of luck never took her side.
"I've heard a lot about you, Gabby."
Holly finally took her eyes off the screen.
Gabby put on a fake smile. She was never in the same situation before, so she had to smile like a hypocrite.
Bryan hit her with his hands, "You're such a coward. You smile like a ghost. It's better you take the part of the bird and save the makeup."
Gabrielle said in a low voice, "Bryan, damn, can we forget about the bird?"

She had her neck up in the troubles. Why did he make it worse? She was so annoyed. What would she do if the fiancee confronted the mistress and pulled her hair all down like it was shown on the internet?
Gabby pictured it in her mind and shivered. Before she had a second to take a breath, Holly kept talking, "You're quite a girl, gabby. You went to the competition in Top girl's club and made millions of dollars on debut. And clients kept coming to the club because of you, and every night it was full. I even heard someone offered 50 million to spend the night with you."
Gabby just stopped hiccuping, and she did it again.
As she said 50 million dollars, Holly looked at her like she was a whore. And the commercial businessmen heard it and their eyes lit up. They had these dirty looks.
After Holly finished talking, she suddenly recalled something and hurried to cover her mouth. She looked at gabby with an apologetic look.
Everyone noticed her change of attitude. She had to say something nice to gabby to save her face. So she said carefully, "Sorry, Gabby, I shouldn't have mentioned it."
The top girl's club was not a fancy place. Every woman in it had a price.
Holly spilled the secret unwillingly. Gina, the girl who was supposed to be the leading actress, had her role stolen by gabby. She had no place to vent, and now she had her moment.
"Gabby used to work in the top girl's club?"
Holly looked at gabby, and the latter didn't respond.
Gabby smiled with embarrassment. She took a piece of watermelon in front of her, took a bite, and calmed down.
It was winter, and the room had the heating on. But the watermelon was frozen. Gabby felt the coolness sliding down her throat.
She finally stopped hiccuping. She took out a tissue and wiped away the watermelon juice, "Keep talking, Holly, don't mind me. I am such a nobody in the top girl's club. It's an honor to be noticed by you."
Holly sat straight, "I'm not paying any special attention to you. I'm keeping an eye out for top girls' clues because it was one of the many businesses owned by my fiance."
"wow, Holly, you're engaged?"
"who owns the top girls club?"
"I heard the legal representative of the top girls club is called Hill Ivan."
"Holly, are you marrying Hill?"
Someone even got up with a glass of wine, "Mrs. Ivan, congrats."
"We're not engaged yet. But soon, we will. Don't worry, and I��ll send you all invitations to my bachelor party. You all have to come."
After Holly finished, she gave Gabby a provoking look. She raised her volume and announced, "Although the legal representative is Hill, its actual boss is another man. He is Jackon, and he is my fiance. Do you hear from him?"
Gabby took a big bite of the watermelon. She used too much force, and the juice splashed. She suddenly looked up, "Em, it's him."
No one cut in, and all waited for her. And Gabby didn't fail the audience, "Holly, you mentioned someone offered 50 million to spend the night with me?"

Leftover Apocalypse
[Participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] This is a story about the newly-adult Calliope Smith having a terrible day that ends in her getting mysteriously teleported from Phoenix, Arizona to a fantasy world where her life is in constant danger. She considers this an upgrade. Someone evil is looking for her, and she doesn't know why. Someone who seems to know a lot about her has promised they'll help her, but she doesn't know who they are. All that matters to Callie is that magic is real and one way or another she's going to learn it. The end of the world is coming up, sure, but Callie won't need to worry about that. In fact, by the time she even finds out about it one of the doomsday devices will already be destroyed, and the authorities will be well on the way to dealing with the other one. It's fine. Everything will be smooth sailing. Almost certainly. Probably. Chapters are usually about 2500-3500 words, and the goal is to post 2-3 per week but I sometimes get busy or have some writers block. It's your standard portal fantasy / Isekai premise, but unlike some the main character's time on Earth and how she got pulled into another world will (eventually) be explored. Some slight GameLit-feeling stuff later, no menus or level-ups but there's something suspiciously like a skill tree when the magic system gets going. No number crunching, and while the main character will get to do some silly stuff she won't be a god like in some fics (and will in fact spend a lot of time being badly outclassed by her enemies). Some reader interaction, ranging from adding to the worldbuilding to occasionally making big important decisions about skill progression. Please note that the main character is flawed and impulsive, and will make some stupid decisions. That's part of the story, but I get that it's not for everyone. Trigger Warnings: Foster care system references, crappy parenting. Some mental health adjacent stuff, specifically the main character has some issues where she experiences varying levels of empathy and emotional vulnerability depending on the day (it's complicated and not meant to portray any real-world conditions). Occasional violence including mention of death and grievous bodily harm, but no detailed descriptions of gore.
