Reclaiming the CEO's Heart novel Chapter 163

Chapter 163 Kiss Her on the Lips

As Avery passed by Carl and Randy, the two children looked at her with reluctance.

Avery gave them a faint smile as a comfort.

Frank said nothing and watched Avery board the helicopter, knowing that this was not a good opportunity to kill Jacob.

Jacob couldn't die here, and Frank couldn't bring trouble to the island.

But once Jacob was off the island...

A hint of fierceness flashed across Frank's eyes, and coincidentally, Jacob turned around at that moment as if sensing something.

The two men locked eyes like a lion and a tiger, glancing at each other. Their gazes met and parted in an instant.

They both understood that today was not the end.

Avery left the small island without time to say goodbye. She looked back at the small wooden house and the giant cherry blossom tree. Then she saw Lois standing at the door, the neighbor's old lady, the children all watching her leave.

At some point, Frank had disappeared, the sunlight only capturing his silhouette. He was like a lone wolf, gradually retreating into the forest.

"Goodbye, my little island," Avery murmured in her head.

Avery closed her eyes, feeling regretful that she couldn't wait for the cherry blossoms to bloom.

And the fact that Jacob had brought her back so openly, it was bound to be discovered, and her plan was ruined.

"What's wrong? Can't bear to leave?" Jacob's deep voice sounded in her ear.

Avery was very cautious about her words now, fearing to provoke Jacob with the wrong sentence.

She shook her head, not knowing how to answer for a moment.

The truth would anger Jacob, but he could see through a lie in an instant.

Her fear of him had gone to her very marrow, and she didn't even know what to say.

It seemed that Jacob also realized this. He leaned in towards her, and Avery reflexively trembled, like a startled cat, watching him with a guarded expression on her face.
