“So, when are you getting married to Chris? What is your preparation concerning it?” Emma bombarded
Avery woke up on the other side of the bed. She had no idea how she got home or what had happened after she drove away from Chris’ house.
Her mother had been disturbing her that morning and the only thing she could feel was sadness and regrets. It wasn’t until she entered her car that she discovered it was really Grey that she saw the night before. She saw the divorce papers and knew for sure that it was over for her and Grey.
It was her fault anyways. She could have gotten the fact straight before making decisions.
“Avery!” Emma called suddenly, dragging Avery forcefully out of her thoughts.
Avery felt so horrible that morning but she still wanted to keep the company for herself. So, she managed to get herself into the company but her mother had been distracting her.
“Mom, I’ve told you that I’m not interested. I don’t want to marry Chris,” she expressed in a low voice.
“Why? He’s the best for you and I know he adores you. Why aren’t you giving him a chance?” Emma was getting very frustrated. She did great work to make her father agree to the divorce. And she couldn’t allow such stress to go to waste.
Avery looked up at her mom for a moment as she recalled all that Chris had done. It was at that moment that some pieces started to fill her head.

The realization of it pained her so much, to the bone but it was the end already. There was nothing she could do anymore.
“Chris isn’t who you think he is. So, it’s a no for me.”
“Wait, what? Is that your excuse? So, what was your excuse for having sex with a poor man like Grey?”
Avery felt alarmed immediately. “Mom! That was harsh! Don’t call him a poor man!”
Emma sighed, frustrated, “Alright. If you don’t want Chris, then you must have other men you can be with We have a lot of men as rich as Chris.”
Avery grunted, “I’m not interested, mom and you can’t force me to.”
The door opened suddenly just as Emma was about to say something else “What the fuck just happened, Avery? Smith yelled, aivancing closer Avery gave hun a hard expression Somehow, after the revelation, Avery had come to hate Smith the more
He was the one that started the whole thing anyway Why did he set her up with Grey? And
why did he make them divorce?
