Billionaire Defiant Wife Chapter 422
Advertisement
Evan closed the glass door in the balcony so that no one could hear the voice in the room.
In the bathroom, Rebecca held the phone tight and pressed the answer button.
As expected, it was Avery.
It seemed that she was very faint. She made a great effort to say a word and couldn't say it clearly.
"It's… me. I was in a room and was bitten by a poison." Her voice sounds helpless.
Hearing what Avery said, Rebecca had a big smile on her face. And her wicked mind wanted Avery to vanish.
Then, Rebecca answered in a cheerful voice, "What are you talking about? I can't hear you. Evan had slept. You can call him tomorrow."
Rebecca hanged the phone directly and turned it off.
Rebecca slightly narrowed her eyes, looking like a vicious woman.
"Avery Peters, go to hell! I will take care of Evan," Rebecca cursed.
Rebecca immediately walked out of the bedroom. She gave a glance at the balcony and quickly put the phone back on the coffee table.
Evan was lighting a cigar on the balcony. It was the faint light in the dark.
Evan turned to look at the balcony of the nearby room.
Pow—
Avery's phone fell to the ground because she got no energy.
Luckily, the two spiders were pressed by the phone and dead.
Their thin fluffy legs were still moving. It was very scary.
When the spiders just jumped over her, she didn't have enough time to escape and just grabbed a pillow to protect herself. But the spiders walked fast, and they jumped over her body at high speed.
In the end, the two spiders died.
Now Avery felt faint and had a headache. She didn't know which of her hands was bitten by the spiders.

Avery was sitting on the ground, picking her phone up, and calling Evan with tremble figures.
At that time, Avery had no choices. Andrew was in a coma, and Jamie got hurt, so Avery had to call Evan.
But when she heard it was Rebecca, she was desperate.
She tried everything to stand up and walk out of here with the support of the sofa and wall. When Avery was walking, a more than one-meter-high vase suddenly hit on the TV cabinet. The vase was broken and made a sound of smash.
Evan heard a smash in the balcony and became anxious all of a sudden.
Then Evan realized that something terrible happened. His face turned pale suddenly.
Evan then closed the door and walked out of the balcony hurriedly.
When Rebecca put back the phone on the coffee table, Evan happened to open the door of the balcony. Rebecca was afraid that Evan would find something, but Evan just walked to the entrance of the room directly.
Rebecca didn't know why Evan was so hurried. She followed by him, asking at once, "Evan, what's wrong? Where are you going now? It is a late night."
Evan said nothing. He just knocked on Avery's door hard, "Open the door! I said, open the door!"
But no one answered. Evan was worried and opened the door directly. When the door opened, Evan saw that Avery sat on the ground, and there were the fragments of a vase.
Some blood stained on the fragments.
Evan was shocked at the scene.
He stopped suddenly. He was sorrowful, and his heart was broken.
"Ah— It's a spider! The poisonous spider!" Rebecca screamed.
Hearing the sound, Evan was frozen as if time stopped.
"Bring a doctor!"
Evan walked to Avery with a big step, helped her up, and put her on the sofa.

"Evan, how is Avery? The two spiders must be poisonous. If they bite someone, he or she must be dead…"
Rebecca was panicked. When she was talking, her lips were trembling.
Hearing what Rebecca said, Evan was more scared. He never imagined that Avery would die. His heart got intense pain.
Evan's face turned pale.
Evan couldn't imagine Avery would die while he would still be alive.
Evan couldn't accept it. It was the hardest thing for him.
Even if Avery didn't love him or leave him alone, Evan could accept it. But he couldn't take the fact that Avery would be dead.
"Evan, how can we do it?" Rebecca pretended to cry. Then She shouted at a servant, "Where is the doctor? Hurry up. Take a doctor here quickly."
Suddenly, there was a sound of a cough.
The sound was faint. You couldn't even hear it.
Avery was exhausted and was lying on the sofa. She frowned slightly and said in a low voice, "It is noisy—"
Hearing Avery's voice, Rebecca was stunned. She felt unhappy and thought to herself, "Why is Avery still alive? A poisonous spider bit her. How could she be still alive? It's impossible! It must be an illusion! If a child is bitten by the spider, the child must be dead in 15 minutes. And an adult must be dead in 25 minutes. Probably, time isn't up. After a while, she must be dead! Even if there is a doctor, the doctor can't save her!"
A servant quickly led a doctor to the room. The doctor just awakened. When he came into the room, he was astonished, finding that there was a mess.
She then took out a needle for a blood test. According to the analysis, the doctor said, "Miss. Peters isn't poisonous. The poisonous spiders didn't bite her."
"Wasn't it bitten?" Rebecca asked disappointedly.
"How could it be? If the spider didn't bite her, why did she call Evan for help? Does she want to play with me? Is it a way to seduce Evan?" Rebecca thought to herself and shook her head.
It was unbelievable for her.
Then Rebecca couldn't help asking again, "Are you sure that the spider didn't bite Avery?"
"Yes, I am sure," The doctor nodded and said, "Her blood is pure."
"That's to say, Avery is still alive?"
"That's correct."
Rebecca didn't give up and asked, "But why does she look scary now?"

A King in the Clouds
Tanlar. A cruel, repulsive, and foul word. It meant untitled, officially, but it also meant ungifted, unable, unworthy, unnecessary, unhuman. It was more a curse than a term, a badge only the damned and condemned wore. To be a tanlar was to know your life, your entire being, was insignificant. Once Kaizer had resigned himself to such a fate, but those times had passed. He may have been untitled, but he was anything but untalented. He refused to scrape by at the bottom of society. Those who stood above him could sneer all they liked, but he wouldn’t suffer being stepped on for long. He’d be better, much better. But of course he would be. ‘Fate’ demanded it so. [Participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] What To Expect: The story of a boy becoming a man becoming a king + everything that entails. Largely gamelit, but later arcs could be called litrpg. Also schemes. A lot of schemes. I do love some good ol' fantasy politics and intrigue. Minimum Word Count a Week: TBA after Writathon Release Time(s): Daily for as long as I can/until the end of the Writathon. I also write The Deathseeker [Returning Dec 5th]
