Avery was patting the baby's back gently.

She didn't find Sarah Ethel was close to her until Sarah covered the light with her body. Avery stepped back all of a sudden when she saw someone was here.

"Mrs. Howel, are you frightened? I just heard that the baby was crying, so I come here in a hurry," Sarah explained in a panic, "besides, I heard nothing."

Sarah had never lied, so her explanation gave Avery a feeling of embarrassment. When the little princess stopped crying, Avery put her back to the portable bed and added, "She is fine now. I guess she just had a nightmare."

"Yeah, I agree with you. Mrs. Howel, please have a rest. I will look after the little princess."

Avery nodded. When she walked out of the room, she stopped and turned back, finding that Sarah was crying.

Finding Avery was looking at her, Sarah seemed to realize something, so she wiped away her tears with the back of her hand, "I'm sorry, Mrs. Howel. I didn't mean to hear what you had told, but when I knew that you wanted to take the baby away, I couldn't bear it. I love the little princess."

Avery knew Sarah loved her daughter though they had only gotten along with each other for a few days.

Seeing Sarah was crying, Avery felt very uncomfortable with closed eyes and said, "Sarah, would you like to leave with us? Wherever we go?"

Tears still hung on Sarah's face. She tried to wipe them away again and answered, "Mrs. Howel, are you serious? Would you like to let me go with you and the little princess?"

Avery nodded.

"But how to explain to Mr. Howel?"

"I will manage to help you," Avery's mind was in a mess now. She couldn't live a day in this place because she didn't know how to live with a man who had tried to hurt her.

Avery went back to the bedroom. It was the room for Evan and her. When she went into the room, she found that there was no stained glass window and made a bitter smile. She thought to herself, "probably, whenever I went into the room, I will turn to check the window."

Ding—

Here was a message for Avery.

It was from Gabrielle. She said, "I had already left Top Girls Club and lived in the Alice Apartment. Everything was ok. Don't worry about me."

After finishing reading the message, Avery asked a maid to prepare water for her to have a shower. Then she took out a nightdress from the closet.

In the bathroom, the maid had prepared her with purple lavender and different kinds of lavender bathing things for her. Finally, the maid tried the water temperature and then said, "Mrs. Howel, Mr. Howel knew you were in a bad mood, so he asked us to prepare the lavender first."

"Fine, I got it," Avery waved and asked the maid to go out.

After taking a bath with a purple lavender, Avery became relaxed. Twenty minutes later, she was in pajamas and a bathrobe and walked out of the bathroom.

It was dim in the room. Avery didn't turn on the light but kindled the lavender, which gave people a romantic atmosphere.

When Avery took off the bathroom, the door of the bedroom opened.

Avery looked at Evan and smiled, "Are you drunken?"

The room was filled with alcohol now. Evan walked to Avery with a few big steps for holding her tight.

"Aren't you angry?" Evan asked in a hoarse voice.

Avery didn't answer. Instead, she picked up a wine glass next to the candle, which was prepared by a maid, saying, "I had been waiting for you. Here is the alcohol. I want to drink with you, but you had been drunk alone."

Suddenly, Evan held Avery tight and went around.

It all happened so quickly that Avery had no time to react. All of a sudden, the alcohol spilled, and the glass shattered to the ground.

Evan hugged Avery tight and kissed her passionately as if they were lovers who had seen each other for a long time.

Avery struggled with a chaos of thoughts when Evan kissed her chin, face, nose, lips…

Evan was so tough and strong that Avery couldn't push back.

He touched and grabbed her breast violently.

The atmosphere was rather intense and exciting.

A few times, Avery wanted to say something for asking Evan to stop, but Evan kissed her so violently that she couldn't say a word.

Avery tried to forget something unhappy, but Evan became more and more violent. Finally, Avery bit his ears.

He then asked in a low voice, "you want?"

"Wait for a second," Avery struggled to say something, "I have some words to say."

"What?" Evan blew air to her ears and added, "darling, I miss you so much."

"…."

"I want you. I want you now."

Avery thought to herself, "why is he so eager?"

Then she bit her teeth hard and asked, "how much alcohol did you drink?"

"Just two cups. Say it. What do you want to talk to me?" Evan looked at her seriously.

"I want to move out."

Evan was astonished but thought about it for a while. Evan would have refused him without hesitation, but now he understood why Avery wanted to move out.

"Give me a house? I want to move out and live there for some time."

"Prepare a villa for Mrs. Howel, Robert," Evan picked up the service bell and said coldly.

"Wait a minute. I don't want to live in a villa. I had chosen a house I like."

"Do you know anything about the house?" Evan raised his eyebrow and asked.

"Had she made a plan before?" Evan asked himself.

"I just saw the advertisement. I like Alice Apartment 8th Floor, Room 802."

Robert immediately searched it with his latest handheld phone and passed it to Evan.

"According to the information about the apartment, it is a kind of rental apartment."

"Yes, I like the room layout."

"Are you sure? Why not live in a villa?" Evan stared at Avery and asked.

"For me, the villa is too big. I only want to live in a small and warm house."

"Do as she likes," Evan squeezed Avery's earlobe while assigned the task to Robert.

"I have one more request."

Evan seemed to be very happy tonight and answered joyfully, "say it."

"Can I take my baby and Sarah away? The baby loves Sarah and me very much. We won't live there for a long time. Moreover, you can visit us whenever you want."

Evan stared at Avery for a while and then nodded.

Avery had never expected that Evan would agree with him so easily.

"I give you what you want. Are you happy now? Can you forgive me?"

Hearing that, Avery took a deep breath. She knew how careful she was when she asked him.
