Billionaire Defiant Wife Chapter 741
Advertisement
Maeve was going to do something but stopped and waved her hands, asking the maid to go out.
One hour later, when Avery just got the little Princess to sleep, Avery took a shower and changed her clothes. After drying her hair, she took out the phone and sent a message to Evan.
Now, it was a crucial moment, so Avery and Evan tried to control themselves. They just communicated through eye contact and never hugged each other or held hands with each other, not to mention live in the same room.
They only sent emotional messages to each other.
When Avery unlocked her phone and opened the message, she frowned and called back.
"Jamie, what's the matter with Jessica Clifford?"
Because James took Jessica away, Jamie had nothing to do. Now he was in the bar, drinking alcohol alone. It was too noisy in the bar. When he saw there was a calling from Avery, he stumbled out of the bar and picked up the phone.
"James took Miss Clifford away," Jamie said as he recalled how miserable the expression that Jessica wore as if his heart was prickling unpleasantly.
"James Moore?" Avery said. It just happened earlier than she expected. She became more anxious and added, "Where is she?"
"Dream House."
Avery knew where the Dream House was. It was a wonderful villa near the forest, the furthest suburb from B Country. Although it had an elegant name, it was a dangerous place with the highest safety level and monitored by infrared monitoring. No one can escape from there.
"Why did James take Jessica away? Did his memory refresh?" thought Avery.
"Shall we take some people to get Miss Clifford back?" Jamie asked.
"Don't do that. Forget about it now," Avery said. She knew no one can help Jessica now except herself. Therefore, the best way to solve this problem was to let it be.

Jamie was unhappy, but he was helpless too. He knew he couldn't save Jessica without help from Avery.
Avery hung up the phone. Then, a maid took a glass of honey water and told her that Yuki was in the living room.
Avery took the cup and took a sip. "Let her wait for me," Avery said.
When the maid went out, Avery walked to the sofa and sit with a glass of honey water. She casually picked up a book, put it on her knee, and read it carefully.
Two hours later, Avery finished reading. She closed the book and walked out peacefully.
Page turn sound was noisy. Avery turned her face toward the sound. It was Yuki who was sitting on the sofa in the living room. Looking at Yuki in the distance, it seemed that her whole body was sunk on the sofa.
When Yuki heard the sound of footsteps, she raised her eyes, turning her face to the sound. As soon as she saw Avery, she shut the book with a snap and threw it on the coffee table. When she was going to say something, Avery stopped her:
"Miss Yuki, I'm sorry that I have kept you waiting."
"You are the Princess. It doesn't matter. I just waited for you for two hours."
Avery knew Yuki was angry, but she didn't care about it. She meant to let her wait.
Thus, Avery lazily walked to the sofa and sit, "What's the matter?"
"It's time for enjoying fireworks. Would you like to watch?"
Avery narrowed her eyes slightly. "I can't believe Yuki is glad to enjoy fireworks," thought Avery.
"Miss Yuki, you might as well tell me what you meant to say. Enjoying fireworks is not a good excuse," Avery said.
Avery was afraid that it would be a trap. Probably, she would miss or even be raped when she went to watch fireworks. She didn't believe Yuki, who always wanted to hurt her.

"I just heard that there is a fireworks display tonight in the Presidential Palace. I'm here to remind you because I am afraid that you will miss a wonderful moment."
Soon, the loud bangs and cracking noise sounded outside the window.
The fireworks launched into the sky to make beautiful displays to make the whole sky brighter.
All the maids exclaimed and ran out, "Look! What a beautiful firework!"
"Wow! I haven't seen such beautiful fireworks."
"What day is it today? Why is there a firework display?"
"What date?" thought Avery. Suddenly, she realized that it was the date when she and Evan were together.
"Does he launch it?" thought Avery.
Yuki seemed to find that Avery knew something. She smiled secretly, turned around, and walked to the floor-to-ceiling window to work fireworks. Suddenly, she found there was a telescope in the corner.
Through the telescope, Yuki saw the gorgeous fireworks in the sky and a romantic candlelight dinner.
Yuki raised the corner of her mouth and said reluctantly, "I gotta leave. See you later."
When Yuki left, Avery walked to the window and picked up the telescope.
Since Yuki had been used before, Avery saw what Yuki had seen before.
There were many lights in the lake as if there were numerous little stars.
By the lake, there was a European-style bow gazebo where flowers hung on and spread its fragrance.
Maeve was excited. She couldn't believe that Mr. Lautner would invite her to have dinner.
Moreover, Evan particularly let's all the maid and Rober go out and keeps only one bodyguard standing away from the gazebo.
It was a kind of romantic atmosphere.
Maeve knew what Evan did meant something unusual. A man invited a woman to have dinner. It was a kind of romantic behavior.
Maeve smiled. Her waist heaved unconsciously. Since she wore a shirt with button-down collars, her breast sometimes showed and shook. When she picked up the utensils and raised her index finger, she glanced at Evan.
Maeve tried everything to make Evan happy, but Evan was still cold to her.
"Mr. Lautner, do you think what I said is boring? It is a pity to say that I attract men for my beautiful face because they ignore my funny and smart brain."
"I love quiet woman."
Maeve stopped abruptly. She kept smiling and said, "I am usually quiet, but I am happy today."
Evan raised his hands, glancing at his watch. He just pretended to pay attention to Maeve.
However, Evan didn't know Avery was looking at them.
"How romantic he is!" thought Avery.
Avery was unhappy and curled her lips. She would have intended to send a message to Evan, but now Evan was going on a date with Maeve.
"It is no wonder that Yuki asked me to come here to watch fireworks. She just wants me to see the date," thought Avery.
Avery stopped observing Evan and Maeve. She was a little bit unhappy, but she still calmed down. She trusted it is reasonable for Evan to do so.
However, it is, of course, that Avery felt unhappy when she saw Evan had dinner with other women.
The fireworks launched into the sky and made colorful displays shining on Avery's face, which made her eyes more clear.
Avery looked down for a second and then went downstairs.
Robert happened to walk into the room from the door and stopped Avery, "Mrs. Howel, Mr. Howel, asked me… Mrs. Howel. Mr. Howel, where do you go?"

Apex Immortal: a LitRPG system rampage
"Across the multiverse where the contest for power is the only constant, only a handful have succeeded in reaching the ultimate heights of ascendency and gained the title Apex Immortal. Dominus is one of them, unsurpassed in overwhelming violence, feared across universes. Now, memories locked and stranded far away from everything he’d built, Dominus will face enemies that will challenge even his powers and discover that change is more difficult than destruction." I’ve been writing fiction on and off for the last decade and I’ve always wondered how a peak immortal (or an OP superhero) would single handedly conquer a world that mirrors our own in all of its complexity. As a politics nerd, this is my attempt at answering that question using Machiavelli’s “The Prince” as the primary playbook. The “monsters” are entire political systems with entrenched culture. Expect many versions of real world political systems (and cultures) to be on the hit list. The MC has to successfully institute regime and cultural change without engaging in wholesale genocide and causing the state to fail. Expect things to go wrong pretty quickly as escalating and cascading political and economic effects rapidly go out of control. Methods deployed are not for the faint hearted.

How to become an evil overlord!
Nicolas Aukye kinda hates life, just kinda. There are many good things about life, and he knows that. The problem is, it's a bit difficult to enjoy life when you are trapped within the white walls of a hospital. Don't get me wrong, he doesn't have cancer or some other depressing incurable illness, nor is he lonely and sad, and he is definitely not just plain cuckoo. There's nothing wrong with him, except for the fact that he has two personalities, but that's not important. It wasn't something he was born with, nor something he resents. He just changed a bit when his mother locked him in an abandoned cellar for a few years, and he had to get on with life eating rats 'n' stuff. As I said, don't sweat the small details, and he's fine, because all that stress is gone once he massacres and wrecks havoc for a bit, oh, not in real life, of course, he's not in jail. Like I explained, perfectly normal, just don't mind the small details too much. (First story, I get C in English so, not a good sign. Trying to improve writing skills.) (casual story, lacks effort. I'm as lazy as Tanaka-kun (reference to tanaka-kun is always listless) you are warned) (Inspired by some of my favourites, Everybody loves large chests, Re:Hamster, World Seed and more) (Please don't kill me for mistakes, I'm probably gonna make a sh*t ton of em) (Also, how do I upload a cover page from my Ipad?)
