Billionaire Defiant Wife Chapter 367
Advertisement
"Miss. Peters, I had read this letter. I am in B Country now, and it is not convenient for her to leave. If you are in B Country, we can meet. But if not, I have to say we can't meet. By the way, may I have a request? Could you keep the thing that we tried to make an appointment in secret? Looking forward to your reply."
"B Country? Rebecca told me she was in B Country. Diana Summer also told me she was in B Country. And Emily Johnson's father was also in B Country. All of them were in B Country. How could it be possible?" Avery thought to herself.
Avery slightly touched the necklace in her neck. On the necklace, there was a pendant. It was a ring that belongs to Avery's mother, who asked Emily's father to give it to Avery before she was dead.
"Things and people are probably related to each other. Can everything be figured out when I arrive in B Country?" Avery thought to herself.
"What are you thinking about?" Evan asked Avery. He had already hung up and held Avery from her back. His chin put on her head, gently rubbing. Evan would like to hold Avery forever so that Avery would leave him.
Avery closed her phone nervously and turned to Evan, saying, "Have you finished? So fast."
Indeed, Evan took a phone call and went upstairs in a short time
Evan put his hand beside the window. The sun went through the stained glass window, projecting colorful lights in his face.
Since the colorful lights made his eyes hurt, he opened the window wider.
When Evan lowered his head, looking at Avery without saying a word, Avery became more nervous.
"I was thinking about whether I should go to B Country or not. Rebecca went into a coma. As her boyfriend, you should pay a visit," Avery said.

"At the same time, we can also give her the cufflinks."
"That's it?"
"Otherwise, what are you going to do? Even if I didn't mention it, don't you want to pay a visit?" Avery said.
"Since Evan's father introduced Rebecca to Evan, Evan has to do something. Otherwise, his father would be angry," Avery thought to herself.
Suddenly, Evan was unhappy. He had to admit that he also thought so. He and his father had made a deal. He became the boyfriend of Rebecca and was no longer monitored by his father.
Evan had not visited Rebecca to date, but his father didn't say anything. It was strange.
"Okay," Evan answered.
Avery's heart stopped all at once and started to pound fast when hearing the answer. Her eyelids also jumped continuously.
Misty Mansion
Andrew Clifford put his injured left leg off the bed with both hands. "How to mean the woman is. She almost hit my secret place. If she gets the right way, my secret place would be destroyed," Avery said to himself.
Hiss—
As soon as Andrew moved, the wound would suffer more. He has suffered so much that his little sexy mole was distorted.
Boom—
A safe bodyguard rushed into the door in a hurry. He stood before Andrew, saying, "Mr. Clifford, something went wrong."
Seeing the safe bodyguard in a state of panic slamming the door on the war and hearing that "Something went wrong," Andrew's heart stopped suddenly.
In Andrew's house, every safe bodyguard was trained well. They would never panic.
"What's the matter?"
The safe bodyguard panted for breath and said seriously, "Your father had an accident."
"What happened? Where is James Moore?"
"James Moore was betrayed."
"What?"
"James Moore was sent to take your father back. On the way back to the cruise ship, James sent a man to shoot your father's belly when your father was sleeping. In order not to be caught, your father jumped into the sea. At that time, the water flew rush. I'm afraid that something bad happened."

"No matter how much effort we need to make, we must search for my father and try to rescue him," Andrew Clifford said to him.
And then he continued to say, "Ask Jessica Clifford to come back."
Jessica didn't know James Moore betrayed and tried to find him. Andrew thought it was really dangerous.
"Yes," the safe bodyguard answered and immediately picked up the intercom making a comment.
"Give the personnel file of Jame Moore to me," Andrew said. "James had kept his secret for so many years. He had been working for the Cliffords for many years. He gained my father's trust and became his confidant. Therefore, I sent him to take my father back and never thought he really wanted to kill my father," Andrew said to himself.
Andrew slammed on the bed so that the mattress swayed. A loud bang sounded all of a sudden.
The personnel file of James Moore was taken to Andrew soon. In the file, Andrew could only know that James was from B Country. Other information was false in order to fabricate his identity.
Obviously, James Moore had made full preparation. Andrew couldn't either know who he was or why he wanted to destroy Andrew's family. But Andrew won't mercy him.
Unfortunately, another bad news came out.
The safe bodyguard looked more serious than before and held the phone tight, saying, "Mr. Clifford, Miss. Clifford…"
Andrew even forgot his pain and kicked on the safe bodyguard's belly, saying, "Fuck off. Say it!"
The safe bodyguard was thinking about how to tell Andrew because so much bad news came; he was afraid that Mr. Clifford's heart still couldn't work. But he had to say it now.
The safe bodyguard covered his belly, standing up. He directly answered, "Miss. Clifford was taken to the black market in B Country by James. He sent the message to us and told us if we want to take Miss. Clifford home, we need to make a bid. It all depends on the price."
Andrew had stood up from the bed and pressed the heart with his hand as if the heart was held by one hand. His face also looked grey from white.
Seeing Andrew's face changed, the safe bodyguard immediately took medicine and water.
"Mr. Clifford, here is the medicine," the safe bodyguard took two tablets out from the two different medical bottles and put them on the small lid.
Andrew was stunned suddenly. Avery had been with him for more than one month. Whenever his heart was uncomfortable, she would like to take medicine for her. Although she always said something tart and mean, she was really kind.
The heart jumped violently because of Avery. In fact, if it weren't Charles's heart, Andrew's heart would also jump when the first met.
Andrew made a bitter laugh. He picked the tablets and ate them up with water.
To support him, Andrew was on wooden crutches, which had been prepared by the servant asking the safe bodyguard, "Mr. Howel, Evan's father knew that my father had an accident?"
"Probably he didn't know."
"Sent the message to him," Andrew said. He knew Mr. Howel was in B Country now so that he could rescue Andrew's father quickly and efficiently.
"Moreover," Andrew said, and his eyes closed slightly, "I need a helicopter to go to the black market in B Country."
