- Avenging angel
“How dare you?” the anger in Ava’s voice was palpable.
Brenda sneers as if she had more important things to do. “It’s not my fault that the she can’t look
where she’s going. This is a limited edition Luis Vuitton dress and the brat almost ruined it by
splashing juice on it”
Brenda and Ava have never gotten along. I knew she was bullied at school and that Brenda was
her biggest tormentor.
The girl I they were talking about was cowaring behind Ava. She couldn’t have been more than
five years old. She was cute, with a pretty pink dress, a heart shaped face, round lips and long
black hair cascading down her back.
I can imagine having a little girl with my grey eyes and Ava’s shinny brown hair.
I freeze in my seat. What the hell? Where the fuck did that thought come from? Shaking my head.
and banishing those thoughts, I focus on Ava. Looks like Ava was finally putting her in her place.
“Are you kidding me? That’s a really stupid reason to hurt a child especially given we’re here
because of them” Ava admonishes, a frown marring her beautiful face.
“It’s not a stupid reason” Brenda stomps her foot like a petulant child. “I’m not going to allow an
orphan child who doesn’t know the meaning of what it is to be rich ruin a dress that costs more
than she’ll ever see in her life”
Shocked gasps fill the room. Brenda turns and realizes that she had an audience and that they
aren’t happy with her.
“That’s not what I meant…” she rushes to save face after noticing the angry gazes that were
directed at her.
“You know what? Leave. Given your attitude towards these children, I don’t see the need for your
presence here” Ava says then motions for one of the many bodyguards stationed around the
entrances
“What? You’re kicking me out?” Brenda stammers.
Ava just rolls her eyes, “Obviously”
“You can’t do that, I’ve donated lots of money to this stupid foundation, you can’t just kick me out
+15 BONUS
Ava smiles. A wicked smile. She then calls for Mary who rushes to her.
*Check how much she’s donated to the foundation” she instructs and Mary begins tapping on her
tablet.
“One million dollars” Mary answers after a while.
Ava turns to Brenda, looking at her coolly. “You see, what we don’t need in this foundation is
someone like you. Someone arrogant enough to think that we can’t do without their money.” She
then turns back to Mary. “Transfer the exact amount back to her account”
Everyone watches in surprise. No one says anything and no one moves.
“It’s done boss” Mary says smiling.
“Now that you have your money back, get the hell out of my banquet and from now on you are
banned from any event I or my foundation hosts” There was steel in her voice, a tone I have never
heard Ava use.
Brenda starts cursing at Ava and the foundation. Ava nods at the bodyguard and he drags her out
kicking and scream. After she’s out, Ava turns to the room.
Just like with Christine, this was going to affect Brenda’s social standing alot. This was the best
fucking revenge Ava could take on her.
“Anyone else share in the same opinion as Brenda? Like I said, we are here because of these kids
and I’ll go through anyone who thinks they can mistreat them” her voice rings across the room,
steady and strong even without a microphone.
Right then she looked like a damn avenging angel. Ready to strike down anyone who even so
much as looks at the children wrong
When no one says anything, she smiles. “Well then, sorry for the interruption and I do hope you
have a lovely time”
My eyes zone in on her as she turs around and walks away. She disappears outside, to the balcony
Emma says something to me but I ignore her. My eyes fully focused on my ex–wife.
I stand up and push my chair back, then leave. Emma calls my name but I don’t turn back. I take
She stands at the balcony. Her face facing the now darkening sky, her hair blowing in the wind
Now, that I was here I didn’t know what to fucking say. I haven’t spoken to Ava since that day at
My eyes drift as I watch people walking in and outside of the garden. She was right. I had been a cold bastard. I rationalized at that time that I didn’t need to care about what the woman who had destroyed my life was doing.
I resented Ava and it showed in the way I fucking treated her for years. I always prided myself in being a good person, but looking back I have to admit that I had been prick. So much so that my wife kept a whole part of her life a secret to me.
“About Emma…” I go to apologize for the words I carelessly threw at her but she cuts me off.
“Don’t worry about it, I’m not after you Rowan and I don’t plan to come between you and Emma, you can rest assured that all the love I had for you is dead. You managed to kill it She takes a steadying breath “Loving you was the biggest mistake I have ever made and I don’t plan on continuing with that mistake”
