CHAPTER 65
Chapter 65: Birthday hang out
“Happy birthday, my princess!” Emma shouted happily as Avery and Grey stepped out
The couple argued that morning that even Grey wasn’t able to wish her a birthday. Meanwhile, he had thought he would give her the ring he got from the auction but Avery was just so stubborn
*Never try to act as a boyfriend to anyone, while I’m still your wife!” She had threatened him.
They threw tantrums at each other and eventually. Grey decided to forget about Chris, if only it was that easy
“Thank you, Mom, Avery responded with a sweet smile and embraced her mom,
There were cakes, pancakes, grilled chicken, and other treats on the table
“How are you celebrating your birthday?” Benjamin started after pulling Avery into a bear hug as well. Only Grey didn’t get a hug. maybe he would never do
“Dad, I’m going out.” Avery announced happily.” So, I’m going to enjoy myself,” she smiled and pulled out a chair
Grey grunted and took a seat as well
You are stopping by the office right?” Lucy inquired as he sat as well
“Yes,” Avery looked up at Lucy” but I will be leaving by two Is that fine with you?
Lucy smiled “Very well. You deserve a celebration anyways. You got us the Protos Pubblicita,” he said excitedly
Grey looked away “Ori did,” I was said in a silence that no one heard him
*And besides,” Lucy continued. “You are the CEO. Just make sure everything is in accordance,” he added with a satisfied grin
Avery’s smile widened. She looked so happy that she got her position back “will, grandpa. I think this is the best birthday gift ever. I don’t need more from you,” she assured
Lucy laughed That’s pleasing to hear but I still have the best gift for you I got two cinema tickets for you and your husband It’s this afternoon,” he announced.
Grey looked up at Lucy, shocked. He didn’t at all expect it.
“Dad, why will you do that?” Emma fumbled She was suddenly irritated. “Dad, Avery has plans with Chris. ” she stressed
Lucy looked over at Emma with confusion written all over his face, what do you mean? Why will she have plans with Chris when Grey is her husband?”
Avery looked over at Emma, seeking a silent approval before she respond ed. “Chris planned to take me out.”
Lucy looked over at Avery. “So, why is Grey not taking you out? Why must it be Chris?” He looked over at Grey, with angry eyes.” What are you planning to do with my granddaughter? Are you playing her?” His voice was suddenly deep and harsh
Grey went shut for a moment, with thoughts colliding in him in some sort of crazy confusion. He didn’t even know what he was supposed to say
This isn’t about the pauper,” Emma said quickly and Grey released a sigh. The CEO of LN material can’t
be married to someone like Grey. she informed.
So, she didn’t know about thal when she invited him to her room? She didn’t know he was a pauper while she was with him?” He flared up
Avery shuddered with fear, every word was like ice, sticking into her body
“But this isn’t right, father. Avery should be free to choose who she wants.” Emma further expressed
“Well, I don’t care about what you do or say. Here’s my final decision, Grey is still the husband and he will be responsible for her. Here,” he pushed the tickets towards Avery.” You are going out with your husband and you shouldn’t be back inside this house until it’s eight in the night,” he said in a voice that left no room for more conversation
Grey hold on the spoon faltered. Lucy had never sided with him. He wondered why he was currently doing
Avery sobbed lightly. She couldn’t talk back and instead took the tickets. She was in fact scared of her grandfather taking the company from her for the second time or permanently
Emma fumed quietly. She was also scared of the consequences of disobeying Lucy
Grey doesn’t like the fact that Avery was going out with Chris but he would never force her to be with him He wondered what Lucy was up to Content is property © .
“Is that understood, Grey?” He repeated in a thick voice
Grey nodded quickly “Understood
Avery couldn’t eat and she instead turned the food into a mess
The silence that hung over their heads was something none of them was used to, especially because it carried weight
Seth placed a call to Chris Chris actually has a 20% share in the KK company And since Hercules was demanding his money, he thought Chris might help him out.
“Hi Mr. Chris, did you see my message?” Seth inquired with a fast-beating heart
Chris was like his boss. Seth had to undergo a lot of agreement to save his company five years ago. This was why he also had to sell his shares to Hercules with the mindset of buying them back later on And he wondered why everything was suddenly falling apart for him
He might also need to inform Smith Robinson
“Yes Seth, I got your message. Can we talk later? By tomorrow? I have plans today”
Seth nodded happily. He knew that Chris would help him anyways. “Alnight, thank you.”
And he hung up
Seth sighed in frustration and placed the phone on the table. He was so troubled that he didn’t even remember calling Jane because of Grey. He just needed to sort out the company challenge, then he would have time for Grey
Though, he didn’t believe it was actually Hercules that wanted to pull back his shares. This was why he demanded Hercules’ hotline.
His phone beeped suddenly when he took it, he realized it was a message from Charles and it was Hercules’s holline
A smile appeared on his face immediately
Avery walked faster to her car but Grey followed quickly
*Avery, waiti He called softly
Avery stopped suddenly to look at him, there was a dark frown on her face She regarded Grey for a moment
wa
“What do you want exactly? Are you happy about grandfather’s decision?” Her voice was harsh and it was palpably clear she didn’t want to be with Grey for a moment
Grey sighed “I dont’ he started but Avery cut him off abruptly
“I doncare’ I don’t want to hear anything. In fact,” she dipped into her bag for the tickets, then she slammed it on Grey’s chest “Take it’ Take whoever you want! Go to the cinema and the bar Stay till it’s eight’ Then, I will call you We will find a way to meet and come home together!”
Grey stared, amazed When did you plan all these?”
“You better listen to me, Grey! She yelled at him. “I’m not going to do this with you!” She expressed
“So, you would rather be with that bastard, than be with me?’ Grey felt hurt
Avery’s hand matched his cheek immediately “Don’t you dare call him a bastard! Chris is a good man’ She defended angrily
Grey’s hand went to his hurting cheek “Did you just slap me. Avery
