Billionaire Defiant Wife Chapter 437
Advertisement
Evan knew Avery wouldn't apologize to others. She pretended to obey the woman.
The situation was complicated. No one can ensure that accidents wouldn't happen.
Evan knew the reason why Avery was here is to get the medicine. Evan could find it for her so that Avery could leave here. It was too dangerous.
Avery wasn't scared. She was just shocked when she overturned the cup, and the woman fell on the ground. Now, Avery was relaxed, just a little nervous.
Probably, since Evan was here to protect her, Avery felt safe. She knew Evan would defend her even if it were dangerous.
Rebecca hurriedly asked a maid to take a doctor to come here. Avery tried to concentrate and soon realized it was improper to be held by Evan, so Avery stepped back and kept away from Evan.
Avery lowered her head and looked at the floor. She was shocked at the miserable woman.
Avery's hands wanted to stretch out to the woman, but Evan and Andrew stopped her with one hand simultaneously.
Evan was tougher than Andrew. When he found Andrew stretched out his hand to stop Avery, he was unhappy and brought Avery in his arms. Her head pressed against Evan's chest.
"Don't look at her. You will have a bad dream."
"Mr. Howel, is it proper to hold my fiancée when the princess and I are here?" Andrew said peacefully, but Avery knew Andrew deliberately called her fiancée.
"If you think it is unfair, I can give you my fiancée."
Avery and Andrew were shocked and said nothing.
Rebecca was talking to the doctor, so she didn't hear what Evan said; otherwise, her heart would also be broken.
Avery knew Evan very well, but there were so many people. It was indecent. Therefore, Avery wanted to take Evan's hands away. However, Evan held her tight, saying, "Don't be afraid. I am here."

Avery tried to take Evan's hands away again and answered, "I'm not scared. Leave me alone. If you didn't help, I would keep away from her too. I can do it by myself."
After finishing the conversation with the doctor, Rebecca turned to look at Andrew, Avery, and Evan. Avery looked at Rebecca. Her face had turned pale as if there was no blood on her face, but Avery couldn't tell the reason. Probably, Rebecca was scared because of the woman or because of Avery.
After all, Rebecca also looked terrible.
Avery raised her mouth and joked, "Come to comfort your fiancée. She was so timid, but she always likes to make a big plan. Does she want to be a mad bride?"
Andrew couldn't help laughing. Realizing it was improper, he stopped and coughed for hiding his inappropriate behavior.
Andrew gave a glance over Avery and thought to himself, "How to mean Avery is. She is always aggressive. I would have thought Avery never treated Evan in this way. It is tough to argue with her."
There was a sound of rush footsteps. A man went into the room. When Rebecca saw the man, she said sadly, "Cousin, something wrong with aunt.."
The man immediately rushed to the woman and knelt, "Mom. Mom. How are you?"
The woman got hurt and fainted. The doctor had no time to comfort the woman's relatives. The doctor just asked a nurse to take off the woman's clothes, take her to the bedroom, and then pull cold water on her body.
Since the woman should take off her clothes, many people got out of the bedroom.
All the people stood in the hall. Finally, Rebecca also got out of the room. Seeing William Webster was here, she walked to comfort him, "Cousin. I heard from the doctor that there was just a little sulfuric acid. I guessed that the aunt would be fine."

William put his hands on the black iron railings. He looked dangerous and worried. Everything was unknown to him.
William didn't ask what happened and how it happened. Rebecca knew William seldom speaks. He had many ideas in his mind, but couldn't express himself. Rebecca couldn't hold it anymore, and said directly, "Cousin, aunt loved Max so much. When she knew Max was dead, she…"
William nodded, showing he got it and said nothing. Then he turned to look at Avery, who was in the same line with him and was standing beside Evan.
William directly walked to Avery.
Since William didn't reply to her, Rebecca felt embarrassed. But when William walked to Avery, Rebecca was joyful and thought to herself, "Although my cousin doesn't like to speak, aunt is terrible now. How could he do nothing? William must punish Avery hard."
Avery was standing against the railings, waiting for the result. Although it was her fault, the thing happened because of her.
Avery was afraid that the woman was in danger because the sulfuric acid was intense and hot.
Andrew and Evan were standing beside Avery. Since Andrew's legs got hurt, he couldn't stand up for a long time. Therefore, Avery turned to ask Andrew to come back to his room and have a rest.
William, however, was here. Andrew didn't leave and stared at William.
Although William had no outstanding appearance, he had a brush cut and a scar on his right eyebrow. On the whole, William looked strong and masculine.
Avery had seen William, who was the man wearing a mask. It was the first time that Avery had seen his face.
William left a wrong impression on Avery's mind. She still remembered how William pestered her on that night.
William stood before Avery and stared at her, saying…
William Webster stood in front of Avery. He ignored the owners of different looks and asked Avery if she was okay.
Avery was quite calm. But she was a bit surprised at Webster's attitude. After all, she accidentally hurt his mother. It made sense if he asked for explanations.
Also, she was prepared to give it to Webster.
However, Webster didn't do so. On the contrary, he was asking about her with care.
Webster's behavior also raised the alarm in Evan's mind. He couldn't help recalling how Webster was going after Avery at the party the night before. He suddenly cut in.
