Chapter 133 Do You Own This House?
Avery smiled at her mother, but the smile didn’t reach her eyes and said, “Mrs Martins, you don’t have the authority to chase me away from my home. Do you own this house?
If you do, please show me the Title Deeds. Aunt Elizabeth, please don’t provoke me because I will ask my father to transfer this house to my name.”
Her mother started to panic. What would happen if her husband transferred the house to Avery? What would happen to her and her niece? She wanted to strangle Avery, but she restrained herself because Avery wasn’t a pushover.
Mrs Martins looked at Avery coldly, then she got off on the second floor. Avery got off at the third floor. Her father left the study room door open. She walked in with the food on the tray and put it on her father’s desk.
Avery smiled brightly and said, “I cook this food with love, Daddy. Enjoy.” Her father smiled brightly and replied, “Thank you, my lovely daughter.
Your food presentation makes my mouth salivating. The food looks delicious. I cannot wait to taste it.”
Avery smiled brightly at her father, and she sat down on the sofa and said, “Daddy, Aunt Elizabeth asked me to get out of her house. Then I asked her to show me the Title Deeds.
She felt that I overstayed my welcome because of her beloved niece. She doesn’t deserve to be a mother. She nearly killed me because she wanted to give Lily a bright future. I had enough of her bullying, Daddy.”
Her father was shocked when she heard Avery’s words and replied, “I will sort this matter out, Sweetheart. Don’t stress about it.”
During dinner, Mr Martins looked at Lily and said, “Lily, please move to the school dormitory as soon as the school opens.” He was giving his wife a taste of her own medicine. Lily was dumbfounded she choked on her food.
Elizabeth couldn’t believe her ears; it was clear to her that her husband was standing up for his daughter. She patted Lily’s back and gave her water.
Lily looked at her aunt with tears in her eyes and asked, “What crime have I committed, Aunt Elizabeth? Is it because I threatened Avery?”
Aunt Elizabeth looked at Avery viciously and replied, “It is my fault, my beloved niece. No one can chase you away from this house. You are going nowhere.”
On the second floor, Avery looked at Aunt Bridgette and said, “I will ask the Lord to bless you with a handsome husband, Aunt Bridge. How many children do you want?”
Aunt Bridgette giggled, she decided to indulge her and replied, “Sweetheart, please find me someone handsome as young Mr Taylor. I want to have one son.” Unbeknownst to her, her wishes would come to pass.
Avery made a silent prayer and asked the Lord to bless Aunt Bridge according to her heart’s desire. Then she hugged her and said, “It is done.” Aunt Bridgette giggled and hugged Avery back tightly.
Towards the end of January, Avery decided to call her boyfriend, Jordan. She asked him to meet her at the mall. Jordan was over the moon when he received Avery’s call. He was not even looking for a job, he was idling at home.
When Jordan arrived at the mall, Avery was already there drinking juice. He walked towards her smiling. When he tried to hug her, Avery dodged. Jordan looked at her with questioning eyes.
Avery smiled at him and said, “I am still a minor, Jordan. Please refrain from touching me.” Jordan looked at her puzzled and replied, “It was just a hug, I didn’t mean anything more.”
Avery smiled and replied, “I know, Jordan.” Jordan sat opposite Avery and said, “I was surprised when I received your call, I thought you had broken up with me.”
Avery looked at him and replied, “I wanted to break up with you. However, I still love you. I decided to give you a second chance. Do you love me, Jordan?”NôvelDrama.Org (C) content.
Jordan’s heart skipped a beat when he heard Avery’s words and replied, “Of course, Baby. I am sorry for ignoring you. I was depressed because nothing was going well in my life. Every company rejected my business plan; I didn’t know what to do.”
Avery looked at him and said, “Let me see your business plan.” Jordan was dumbfounded because he didn’t have a business plan. He was lying through his teeth.
He smiled at his girlfriend and replied, “I didn’t bring it with me, Baby. I would be happy if you could ask your father to help me establish my company. I want to enter into the Construction industry.”
Avery was shocked when she heard that Jordan wanted to compete with the Martins Group. Did he approach her because of the Martins Group?
She was overwhelmed with bitterness and replied, “Please send me your business plan by e-mail.” Jordan was fuming with anger; he didn’t know anything about the Construction industry.
He was hoping that Avery would ask her father to fund him without lifting a finger. He looked at his girlfriend and said, “Baby, I am going to the interview this afternoon. Please wish me luck.”
Avery smiled and asked, “Didn’t you refuse to apply at Martins Group because you didn’t want to work under someone else? Are you lying to me, Jordan?”
Jordan lowered his head to hide his emotions and replied, “I don’t have a choice, Baby. You are my only hope.” He promised to send his business plan to her, then walked out of the café.
Avery was shocked when she saw Jordan’s business plan. It was clear that he didn’t put any effort into it. She wasn’t surprised that other companies had rejected it.
After dinner, she went to her father’s study room and sat down. Her father looked at her smiling and asked, “What is the matter, Sweetheart?” Avery smiled and said, “Please promise me that you will not be angry, Daddy.”
