All members of the family went to greet Mr. William Hill, except for one member. And that was Alex.

He was still standing in his Rock Status with interlocking his finger with Avery and holding a glass of wine in his hand. His eyes were cold like he didn't mean anything with his father's Arrival.

Mr. William was not alone. He was accompanied by a man about his age and a young girl and a young boy. From their features, they were seen like they were from Asia. Their fair complex and shining skin were attracting the attention of the people.

It was hard to take their eyes off from them but this did not affect Alex. He was sipping his wine and looking at his father.

After greeting everyone, William turned his eyes throughout the hall to find a particular person, and finally locked his gaze on Alex, then he excused himself with the person who had come with him and came towards Alex.

Seeing him approaching, Avery's body began to tremble. After the marriage, he was the only person she didn't know. She only knew William's strict nature which made her a little nervous.

When Alex felt the vibration of Avery's body against his body, he immediately looked at her and tightened his grip on her hand.

"Relax I'm right here." He assured her and she too nodded and responded to him.

When William approached the two, Avery scanned his entire face. In doing so, she did not have to deal with the awkward situation because William was looking at his son.

William didn't look in his mid-fifties, despite being in his mid-fifties. The sharp features of his face made it difficult to guess his age. There were only a few wrinkles on his face near his eyes that were clearly recognizable after a smile.

"Hi, son!"

"Hello, dad!" Avery was shocked to see the two of them greet each other in this way. How can someone greet his own father this way after so many days? She thought. If she had been in this place, she would have thrown her body on her father. But sadly. Her father was not in this world. She felt like someone had pulled the strings of her heart. Changing the direction of her eyes she flicked her eyes so that the tears would not come out of her eyes.

"So you finally cracked the deal."

"Yesh. It wasn't that hard but it still took a long time."

"Pretty long!"

"Yes, you are right son."

"By the way who is this beautiful lady." Mr. William said looking at Avery.

"My date....." It was hard for Alex to lie. But he knew it would not be not right to reveal their marriage while having a centre of attraction. While every pair of eyes looking at them.

"Good evening sir." Avery greeted him very politely which made his lips curl into a smile. Her voice made him feel like a melody of peaceful music in his ears. He then turned his attention back to Alex.

"Alea, Mr Xu Qiang is waiting for you. He has especially come to meet you, with his daughter and son."

"Ok! You go. I will come." After Mr. William left, Avery immediately turned to Alex. "That was too rude Alex." She looked at him and pouted.

"Does anyone greet his father in this way?" She puffed out her little nostrils. Alex smiled a little at her cute expression.

"Don't put so much stress on your little head because I've been dealing with my dad like that from starting. And now it has become a part of our lives."

"Still So much rud."

"I'm not rude. Only I'm not close to my father. " He took her to his grandmother and sat her on the couch next to her. He asked the waiter for orange juice. And handed the glass to her.

"Take care of her grandmother.

And don't let her eat and drink unnecessary things."

"Young Fellow. You don't have to tell me this. I am your grandmother, not your sister. If you have forgotten, let me remind you that your father was born from my womb." Eleanor mocked Alex.

"I'm sorry. My mistake" Alex gave up and left. Here Avery notices one thing that Alex is close to his grandmother.

The dinner table was set and every member of the family was seated at the table with William's guests except Alex and Avery. Avery had been hit by sudden nausea which caused her to go to the washroom to throw everything in her stomach. Alex had seen her go to the washroom, so he immediately followed her to the washroom. He regrets bringing her to this party today. It would have been better if he had listened to her because no one would have fucked her with open eyes.

No one would have looked at her with lustful eyes. He didn't want to invite Unwanted Problem, so he went after her. At the party, she was like a sweet candy that men were waiting to lick and women were throwing a heated gaze on her.

When she came out of the washroom, her eyes widened when she saw Alex leaning against the wall. Lifting her long dress a little, she quickly approached him.

"What are you doing here?" It was a ridiculous question because she knew he was waiting for her.

Instead of answering her, he looked at her for a deep one minute and then cupped her one cheek placing his large palm and said to her, "I told you not to wander alone." Although his gestures were gentle, his tone was furious.

Avery bit her lip but she needed to answer his question and that was true, "I felt nauseous and I didn't want to bother anyone."

"You had to come to me."

"I didn't have that much time. I could have vomited anytime. I didn't want to create a mess. And also you were talking to someone." Yes, it was all true.

"All right, I Agree. But don't do this again." He snaked both his arms around her waist and pulled her closer.

"What are you doing? Someone....."

"Shuu...No one is will come here. And if you don't feel well, we can go home. I'll take you now."

"No!" She blurted out. "I'm fine. Don't need to go very suddenly." In fact, she was feeling very weak and she wanted to go home quickly and sleep on the bed.

By the time Avery had arrived here, she had noticed from her surroundings that today's party was very important for Alex and the Hill family, and she did not want Alex to leave such an important thing and babysit her.

"Are you sure?"

" Too much."

" All right, let's go." The arms around her waist was untied and the two of them left.

Just looking down at only one vacant chair, he furiously pulled his eyebrows. And it was normal for him to react like that. Because they were two and there was only one seat vacant. Alex had no qualms about putting Avery on his lap but it wasn't right to do so today.

Seeing the furious expression on Alex's face, the hair on the body of the women in the family stood up. They know the reason behind Alex's bloody eyes. In fact, when all the ladies saw this arrangement that they noticed it. And Margaret Hill asked the waiter to add another chair, but William stopped her and asked why she needed an extra chair. Margaret then told him that she was asking the waiter to add a chair for Avery.

But William cut her off so that Avery could sit at another table saying Avery is not a family member and this is a family dinner.

At the time, Margaret desperately wanted to tell William that Avery was not just a family member, but his son's wife and the mother of his unborn grandchild. But she knew that Alex had not yet revealed his relationship with Avery to William, so she decided to wait for Alex without saying anything. But she didn't like William added his guest to the family dinner. But being a guest, the Hill family could not ignore them.

There was only one empty chair on the table and that was between Xu Yuyam and Amanda's. Alex was thinking at the time that even if one of his family members had told the waiter, another chair would have been arranged here. And at the time he was in doubt as to whether his family had accepted Avery or not.

"Alex, Why don't you sit." Xu Yuyam said in her melodious voice. After fifteen minutes of chatting with Alex, she started to think Alex was like her friend but she still didn't have Alex's real side.

"Yes, Son please take a seat. All were waiting for you. And you .... Your name.... Hmm... Ha... Avery, I know you are Alex date but this is family dinner so an arrangement has been made for you at another table." William said pointing to the right. Hearing this, Alex's anger had gone to the seventh cloud. How can his father humiliate and embarrass his wife in front of everyone in this way?
