Billionaire Defiant Wife Chapter 866
Advertisement
Evan asked with uncertainty, "Are you sure?"
Avery answered firmly, "Yes, I am."
Like Gabrielle said, Avery decided not to keep Evan waiting.
The wedding was only a formality. Behind it, Evan and Avery were the essences of their life.
So why should they be bothered by being together in which way?
Evan held Avery's hands and crossed his fingers with hers. Then he took her to the submarine.
The submarine looked like a whale under the blue sky and white cloud. It coursed through in the waters, revealing half the body, and carrying ripples.
As the submarine went under the sea, Avery finally took a look at the wedding venue.
After Avery got off the submarine, she came to a long and curvy glass tunnel. On the sides were photos of her and Evan.
The corridor was covered in black and white flowers. Both Evan and Avery wore white dresses, and they fit right in the background.
Outside, the glass tunnel swarmed with multiple sea animals. Evan pressed a button, and the fishes of all kinds started to make circles around the tunnel slowly.
Then they formed a giant heart.
Avery said, "Wow! How do you make this happen?"
Evan smirked, "With bait."
It was very rare for Evan to see that there was something Avery didn't know the answer to. She became so curious and excited. Evan smiled and pointed in another direction.
In front of the tunnel were two faint blue jellyfishes. They slowly floated in their direction.
When they approached, Avery saw the rings they carried.
No wonder Evan spent so much time on this. It was impressive and breath-taking.
And all the surprise at the moment was for Avery alone...
The jellyfishes stopped in front of Avery and Evan. Evan reached out and took the rings down.
Evan said, "They're our wedding rings. Don't think about taking them off after you wear them. Marry me, and you have lost the room to regret."

When they got married four years ago, Evan didn't prepare a wedding ring for Avery. This was his greatest regret of all time.
So Evan designed this part to make jellyfish be their ring carriers.
Evan stared at Avery passionately, and her heart couldn't stop pounding.
Evan held her hands tightly, and they looked into each other's eyes like it was the first time they fell in love.
Avery then realized her hand palm was covered in sweat.
Avery was the mother of two. But when she looked at Evan, it was like she was a teen again. She felt the crush only a teenage girl would feel.
Her heart wouldn't stop beating, and her cheek got redder and redder.
Evan's look suddenly turned deep. He couldn't help rolling his Adam's apple.
No matter how long he looked at Avery, he wondered, he would always get obsessed like he always did.
Evan said, "Avery, do you know you get more beautiful?"
Avery smiled, "Sure. I want to marry you when I look the best."
I want to become the bride of you, Evan Howel, when I look the best in my life, Avery thought.
Evan became out of breath. His hot breath burnt her lips as they kissed. At the very second, all they could see was each other.
***
Three years later.
The playground in A City was crowded and noisy.
Gabrielle hurried to course through the crowd and looked around.
She just finished doing voice over for a TV drama. Then she got a call from her agent that her son was picked up by Richard Oliver.
It took her a long time to check-in. A few kids were running wild, and she was in a hurry to avoid them. Then she slipped and would have taken a fall if a strong hand didn't hold her in time.

Gabrielle was about to say thank you when she saw the man's face. She froze for a second and said, "Ivan, it's great. You're here."
Gabrielle was more relieved seeing Ivan was here. She asked, "Where is Richards? Did he take my son?"
"Don't worry, Miss Gabrielle. He is very safe," Then he pointed at a place not far away," They're both insides."
It was a haunted house. It was a place that Richard would go to. He always liked to take her son to play something unique.
The big and black haunted house was the biggest place in the playground.
The haunted house adopted scene-setting and holographic projection and only let one group of tourists in at one time. It took 40 minutes to finish the session. But Gabrielle couldn't mind so much since her son was only three. She thought he would get terrified.
Gabrielle was about to enter with the tickets when the staff stopped her, saying, "Sorry, miss. You can only enter after the last tourists come out."
Ivan saw this and talked to the man for seconds. Then he said, "You may take aisle 10."
Gabrielle asked, "Are they in aisle 10?"
"Yes, "Then he handed her over the walkie-talkie, "You have to leave your phone with us to get a full experience. The place has surveillance. If you have any problems, you can contact us via the walkie-talkie."
Gabrielle grabbed the walkie-talkie in a hurry and entered the dim passage nervously. At the end of the passage, she could see lights.
She stepped on the ground, and it slowly lifted up until she saw a door in front of her.
On the top of the door was hanging a light cracking in the air.
The light was dim and slightly yellow.
As Gabrielle came in, the room got darker. The light from the oil lamps was faint. There was also an old couch covered in aged bloodstains.
There was no fire in the fireplace. There were traces of footprints in a long line stretching into a darker place in front of Gabrielle.
The fire suddenly cracked!
A vague figure rose from the woods with a black cape. Gabrielle couldn't tell his face, but it shocked her.
She couldn't help screaming and yelling.
But the next second, she fell into a robust chest.
Gabrielle could tell the body was warm. But she was in a hurry to struggle off. But the person in black cape hugged her tightly.
"You..."Gabrielle tried really hard to shove him off. But she couldn't use any force. She even felt the hug was familiar, and she didn't want it to stop.
But her reason told her this wasn't right. Her first reaction to a person who hugged her so tightly and wouldn't let go should be pushing the person away. Or she should ask for help from the working staff with the walkie-talkie.
She thought so and acted. She put her hands against the person's chest and pushed away. She pressed the button on the walkie-talkie, and it had a green light.
"Help!" Gabrielle yelled at the walkie-talkie and heard her voice coming from the walkie-talkie.
It was so close that she could hear the electric buzz.
Gabrielle looked up in surprise and was not far away in the darkness. The guy wearing the black cape took out the walkie-talkie that Gabrielle heard her voice from.
The man pressed a button, and Gabrielle could hear the electric buzz in her walkie-talkie. She was talking to his walkie-talkie!
