Billionaire Defiant Wife Chapter 530

It's an unexpected answer. Avery was doubtful, "Are you sure?"
"How dare I forget the footsteps of the person who killed Mr. Clifford?" Jamie did not hesitate.
"What I wonder is how she knows where we are? It takes time to locate us in sending someone to hit us with a car. As long as we slowed down a little bit, we might not have a car accident."
Avery was still frightened to think of the scene at that time. The person in the van only had had one purpose, which was to kill them.
After a few seconds of contemplation, Avery speculated, "Has Fiona stalked us all the time? Was she sitting in the van at the time of the accident? After we fell off the cliff, she got out of the van, and you heard her footsteps?"
That would make sense.
If Fiona has stalked them all the way, she must have seen them get in the car at the hospital.
Jamie suddenly said, "I heard that a lady in the Summer family was sick."
"Leonie." Leonie was in the hospital, so Fiona had seen them in the hospital, and then a series of things had happened.
Jamie nodded and wanted to rush in, but he was stopped by Avery, "Don't be impulsive. Let's go in and have a look."
As soon as they got to the door of the hall, they heard laughter.
"It's so big here that I walked in through the gate for ten minutes."
"Oh, have you seen that woman?"
"Which woman?"
"The original Mrs. Howel, who divorced Mr. Howel, and now she still stays here and refuses to leave."
"I heard that it was she who arranged for her bodyguards to stand guard and let us walk in. She also said that it's to show respect and sincerity, but the old Mrs. Howel had no such intention at all. I think she must regard herself as the master here."

"I heard she tortured Leonie."
"Leonie has been madly tortured. Look, that is Diana Summer, who has just returned from studying abroad. I think she is the one for Mr. Howel."
At this time, they found Avery and stopped talking, and then everyone looked at her.
They were all busy looking up and down at Avery. Although many people had seen her just now at the gate, they looked at her with disdain after some discussion and gossip.
Avery was calm and walked in, while Jamie was standing at the door as her bodyguard.
Avery's neck was very beautiful. A light yellow dress matched her fair skin.
She never took the gossip seriously. If it hadn't been for a purpose today, she might not have been interested in the birthday party.
After all, Avery and Evan's grandmother did not like each other.
Oddly enough, as soon as Avery appeared, it was so quiet that she heard only her footsteps. She quietly looked at the position of the rotating staircase. Evan's grandmother, who was 70 years old and was still very delicate in dress, was just down the stairs.
Evan's grandmother saw Avery too and looked at her with disdain.
When Leonie was in the psychiatry department, Evan's grandmother put the blame on Avery.
"I'm really moved, Avery. You did so much for me after you divorced Evan." Evan's grandmother's words hinted that Avery had nothing to do with the Howel family and showed her attitude.
Avery was not surprised by her words. Everyone already knew that she divorced Evan, and everyone saw her as a dog that had been swept out of the house.
When Avery decided to come to the party, she knew what would happen.
Looking around, Avery did not see Evan, who said he would come later.

She gave a smile, and replied, "Evan is busy, and he lets me hold the birthday party. These are all I should do."
Then someone said in a low voice, "It seems that Mr. Howel has a good relationship with her."
Evan's grandmother smiled in disdain and looked at elsewhere deliberately. Her eyes suddenly brightened, "Diana."
Diana took a few steps forward and helped Evan's grandmother, "Slow down."
Diana's soft and weak body could not help but let people feel sorry.
"Why are you so thin? I'll have Maureen make you some soup later." Evan's grandmother clasped Diana's wrist.
"No, it's just my physique."
"I'll ask Dr. Walter to check for you."
"This girl is not telling the truth." Fiona asked a servant to take the gift, "In order to prepare this gift, Diana suffered a lot, so she lost a lot of weight."
The servant came in with a big white gift box with the same color transparent ribbon.
Evan's grandmother asked Maureen to take over the gift box and patted Diana's back, "I'm very happy you come here. You don't need to bring me a gift."
"I just want to celebrate your birthday." Diana smiled shyly. Diana and Leonie had two different characters. The former looked clever and sensible, while the latter seemed to be delicate and charming.
Evan's grandmother was guilty about what had happened to Leonie and her father's death.
She had wanted Leonie to marry Evan, but she was sick. So she treated Diana differently, and she was trying to let Diana marry Evan.
As long as it wasn't Avery marrying Evan, she would be glad.
She looked at Maureen, who immediately said, "I heard that Avery also prepared a gift. Why don't you show it?"
The servant bowed humbly, quickly came out, and took a small and shabby box to put next to the gift box sent by Diana.
Compared with Diana's mysterious gift with a simple, big, and beautiful package, Avery's package was decorated with red silk. Telling from the package, people assumed that it must be jewelry in the box, so no one cared about the gift.
For the rich and famous family, jewelry was not a special gift.
Hearing from Fiona Summer that Diana took pains to prepare the gift, people paid more attention to Diana's gift.

Journey Towards Dao

What is quintessential, unfathomable, eternal? What is Dao? The main focus of this story is detailed cultivation, professions, and combat systems. It's a slice-of-life with a cultivation system that delves into psychological aspects (including minor psychopathic/sociopathic elements). Protagonist is the low-key sort.
