Billionaire Defiant Wife Chapter 599
Advertisement
Now it was a peaceful morning. It seemed that there was no terrorist attack in the B Country.
Avery didn't have a car, so she had to inquire about the timetable for the bus near the hotel.
On the way to find a person to make an inquiry, Avery got a call from Gabrielle, "My sister, I just read the news that there was a terrorist attack in the B Country. How are you?"
"I'm fine," Avery was answering while she was walking. When she arrived at the bus stop, the station was full of people. Most of them had just been on a vacation on the peach island, and they were going to return to the city by bus.
"Umm, dear sister. My phone lost," Gabrielle stammered out an apology, but Avery stopped her, "I understood."
Avery then raised her hand and glanced over her watch, asking, "what time is it now in your city?"
"At three in the morning."
"It is no wonder that Gabrielle's voice sounds like a sleeping baby. She probably got up late at night and saw the news about the terrorist attack. She must be worried about me, so she called me," Avery thought herself.
She was deeply touched and comforted Gabrielle, "I'm fine. Don't worry about me. Continue to sleep. I will take a bus back to the city. When I arrive in the Presidential house safely, I will send a message to you."
Therefore, Gabrielle hung up and went back to her bed.
In the A Country.
It had been raining all night. Now it was a little chilly in the early morning. Some birds picked up the petals with rain, flapping their wings flying through the morning mist.
Jackson's eyes looked bright. He woke up at 6 o'clock every morning. When he wanted to get up, he found Gabrielle pressed on him.
He was trying to push Gabrielle away, but she held his neck tight with her both hands. Her face was close to his neck, keeping touching him as if she was a lovely cat.

Knowing Avery was safe now, Gabrielle had a wonderful night and held Jackson tight still. Jackson was lying on the bed, staring at the ceiling and saying to himself, "Fine. I will be with her for a while."
Hill Ivan arrived at the castle on time. It was silent now. A driver walked to him and whispered, "Mr. Oliver doesn't wake up still."
Hill leaned his head back, thinking whether he misunderstood or not.
"Don't wake up yet?" Hill asked with a surprise. "It is impossible. Mr. Oliver wakes up at 6 o'clock every morning," Hill said to himself.
The driver glanced over Jackson's bedroom and said, "Mr. Oliver hasn't come out yet."
Hill suddenly became anxious and thought to himself, "It is the first time that Mr. Oliver doesn't get up at 6 o'clock."
Hill didn't dare to come near Jackson's bedroom because he was afraid that Jackson would be angry.
Hill was still standing in the corner of the castle.
He looked at his watch more than a dozen times and sweated harder and harder. "It is almost 7 o'clock. After half an hour, Mr. Oliver has a video conference," Hill said to himself.
Hill couldn't help sending a message to remind Mr. Oliver there was a meeting. A few minutes later, he got the message from Jackson, "cancel the meeting. Besides, check out Richard's class table for the day."
Hill's hands shook. He almost slipped his phone.
"Oh my god. What happened? Canceled the meeting? Besides, Does Mr. Oliver want to send Richard to go to school? Mr. Oliver canceled the meeting because he wants to send Richard to go to school? Amazing!" Hill said to himself.
After a while, Jackson sent another message, "Book all the film tickets for tonight."
"Film ticket? I still remember that Richard put a movie post that Miss. Peters gave him a small pocket on his chest as if it was a treasure. And then he also told Mr. Oliver cheerfully says that his chest is close to his heart.

Oh my god. Why does Mr. Oliver buy all film tickets? What does he want? A competition between his brother and him?" Hill thought to himself.
Hill had to obey it. He immediately asked someone to buy the tickets. Soon he got the information that Richard had bought all the tickets for The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie, so there were no tickets anymore.
Then Hill told the situation to Mr. Oliver. After a while, Hill's phone started to vibrate again. He opened the message. Jackson requested him to solve the problem.
Hill was embarrassed. He didn't know how to solve it because Richard was the most popular one in the Olivers.
At 8 a.m., Jackson was still lying on the bed. The room became brighter. Gabrielle was still pressing on him and sleeping sweetly.
It was tranquil. Jackson even wanted to keep the moment forever.
At that time, Gabrielle's phone rang.
Gabrielle opened her eyes, looking at Jackson confusingly.
Jackson looked unhappily because the phone call interrupted the wonderful time.
Jackson picked up the phone. It was Gabrielle's assistant Mia, "Gabrielle."
"Say it," Jackson answered coldly.
Hearing it was Jackson, Mia was frightened. She even thought she called the wrong number and glanced over the screen, but it was right.
"She was sleeping. Say it quickly."
Mia was astonished that Gabrielle was sleeping with Jackson, but she tried to calm down and said, "Just now, the film director called me and let me inform her that there is a press conference in the afternoon, and he hopes that she can come here."
Jackson frowned. Mia continued to say, "Gabrielle did a great job last night, so the producer took the demo to get more investments. The film director valued the press conference."
Gabrielle faintly heard what Mia said, so she said, "I will come."
And then Gabrielle kissed the corner of Jackson's mouth because she was afraid that he would disagree.
Jackson's mouth became hot. He was trying not to raise the corner of his mouth.
"She will be there in the afternoon."
Hearing the answer, Mia was relieved. But she was still confused about why Avery slept with Jackson. "They just said they would talk about something about the contract, but… Is it a sexual business?"
One hour later, Gabrielle and Jackson had breakfast. Then Jackson sent a driver to take Gabrielle to the press conference.
As for him, he got back to the Olivers' house alone.
Knowing Mr. Oliver was coming back, a group of servants ran into the house from the door, shouting, "Mr. Oliver is coming. Mr. Oliver is coming."
Hearing the news, Billy stopped working and hurried out of the kitchen, "Jackson, why do you come back?"
"Why? I shouldn't come back?"
"No. I don't mean to," Billy's face turned red. With a neat ponytail, Billy looked younger.
The maid squatted and changed a pair of shoes for Jackson. As soon as he walked into the house, he found Richard was playing a game.
Hearing Jackson was coming, Richard, glanced over him and then continued to play the game.
"Don't you need to go to school today?" Jackson sat on the white leather sofa beside Richard.
Billy asked a maid to bring a plate of fruit and said with a smile, "Richard is going to watch a movie with Gabrielle tonight, so he took a day off for prepare the date."
Recalling that Hill just told him that Richard had bought all the movie tickets for tonight, Jackson then pretended to pick up a car magazine from the coffee table.
"Gabrielle doesn't like watching cartoons."
"Who told you? I asked her. She loves it."
Jackson stared at Richard and said, "I know you like that fat girl in the class next door. Can I help you?"
Richard was playing with the gamepad skillfully. He conquered the boss one after another easily and got a lot of equipment.
Looking at the ID name for the role, the corner of Jackson's mouth couldn't help shaking.
The ID name is…

This is the story of a man who had nothing yet lost everything but a single wish, a silver lining that would completely change his life. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Author's Notes - Hello everyone! This is my first work and I will hopefully stay around for a while. I will try to finish or at least expand on this piece of work for quite some time, expect a few hiatuses in between though, still have a bit of schooling to do. Expected release dates will probably be once a week(not sure yet) after I stabilized the novel a bit as I'm still debating on how I should handle this. I prefer fleshed-out works compared to quick releases, but it also depends on how I'm feeling. I don't have a lot of confidence in my writing skills and I believe that my writing style is a bit weird, but I do want to try my best to tell a story that's worth telling. I will gladly accept criticism but please try to pull the punches back a bit! I'm still only human after all. Very excited to work on this, please take good care of me as I proceed on this journey with all of you! P.S. If you're going into my series, expect to see cliches sprinkled here and there. I personally love cliches and a few tropes! But, that goes without saying, I want to put my own spin on them. Be ready to feel the edge!!! Heh.
