After Sleeping with My Childhood Prince, I Kicked Him Out from My World novel Chapter 73

48. A week with dear wife

<<. Miles. >>

After reaching my apartment, I got the awaited call from Mr. Collins. I explained to him that I had got in a fight with her beloved daughter. He gave me an earful for hiding the truth from him in the hospital. Then he invited me to the resort to spend the holiday with his family.

“Only if you are comfortable. Avery told me you two want to take some time before making the news public, but I will be happy if you join us,” He told me.

I made up some excuses, and he cut the call after promising that he would make sure Avery contacts me as soon as possible.

So I am finally talking to her. After that messed up sudden departure from Dom’s club. I am relieved to hear her voice. Not sure what I was expecting, but I am not comfortable with the whole situation. Noah managed to get the location of Lena’s car and my team is working on it right now. Money does have its privilege. Things get done at odd

times.

“Liam?”

“Yup!”

“Why did you visit my house?” She asks. To my surprise, she sounds calmer than I expected.

“I… needed some money.” I make up an excuse on the go. There is no other logical explanation I can give to her for visiting her house at past 11. With her life at risk, this game of staying anonymous from her is wearing me out.

Can I tell her I am her lawfully wedded husband?

No…

She would properly cut the call right away. Considering our last encounter, she must be pissed.

“And?” she prompts, and I roll my eyes.

Don’t make it hard for me, Avery.

“I need it urgently! And I have nobody to go to,” I tell her, but she stays quiet.

“And you were not picking up your phone, so I got worried,” I add carefully.

“You got worried because your possible cash cow was not picking your calls?” she asks, connecting the dots. She is mocking me.

I chuckle. “ummm yeah…”

Chapter 73

Is this how people beg? I literally have no experience. Am I doing well?

“Wait. Are you saying my phone isn’t switched off?” she asks in surprise.

“Jeez, are you trying to get rid of me, Avery?” I tease her. I know what happened to her phone.

“No, no! I am not ignoring you. I lost my phone in an accident. So if it’s still ringing…” she trails off.

“It’s probably still in your car.”

“Oh! I can get it back. But… how will I get it back?” she mutters to herself.

My team is inspecting Lena’s car and has found her phone. Apparently, it has a good battery life. But the worrying discovery is that the brakes were tempered. They will share the complete report with me by the morning.

They told me it’s relatively easy to temper one’s brakes. All you have to do is cut the lines so the fluid leaks out of both circuits. Someone had disconnected the brake failure warning light. That could explain why Avery didn’t realize that something was wrong when she started driving.

I have sent a bodyguard to her resort. She will probably get annoyed when she realizes this in the morning.

“How did you manage to control the car?” I ask her in curiosity.

Did she use parking brakes?

“I couldn’t control it. This is why I had an accident, Liam!” she says, annoyed, with an undertone of voice that says ‘why are you so dumb.‘

It makes me laugh.

“Anyway… you haven’t even started my job yet. So I cannot give you any money,” she says, and I scoff.

Can you believe this woman? I am giving her so much cash. Can’t she share back?

“Now? Like now now?”

“Isn’t it late?”
