After putting Avery in the cab, Alex leaned down with one hand on the open door and the elbow of another hand on the car.

"Hey, darling." He said to her in a very tender and subtle voice but it was worth listening to Avery. She became a little emotional. She did not dare to look at him and was looking straight ahead.

Seeing that his wife was not looking at him, Alex removed his hand from the car and grabbed her chin and turned her face towards his, "Why are you ignoring me?" He asked first and then looked into her eyes. Seeing the unshared tears in her eyes, he regrets what he said to her. He realized that she was not ignoring him but was stealing her gaze from him.

"Miss me," He said rubbing one of her cheeks and planted a sweet kiss on the other cheek. Without saying much and without taking much time, he stood at his full height and closed the car door and signalled to his man who was on the driver's seat in the cab to start the engine.

He kept looking at the car until it was out of his sight.

Same time in the cab Avery rested her head on the seat and closed her eyes. Staying away from Alex for five days was not a big deal but she was feeling more emotional due to hormonal changes in her body.

In half houre, they reached their destination and the cab stopped with a gentle jerk. Ma'am, we arrived. Alex's man said to Mrs. Miller and Mrs. Miller looked at her daughter whose eyes were still closed. It was clear from her calm and steady breath that she was asleep. Sarah put her hand on Avery's shoulder and shook Avery's shoulder to get her out of her sleep.

Avery opened her eyes, which were red from half-sleep. She looked around. The cab was standing next to a very large iron gate. Mrs. Miller asked to take cab through the iron gate and soon a large and divine mansion came into view. The mansion was adorned with colourful lighting.

The cab stopped in front of the entrance of the mansion and Sebastian got out of the car and firstly, opened the door for Mrs. Miller.

Avery was about to open the door of her side but Sebastian was fast enough to open it before her and extended his hand in front of her. Avery at first hesitated to put her hand in his palm but then she put her hand in his and came out of the car.

When the three of them got out of the cab, they were greeted first by Sarah's cousin.

Sarah's cousin looked very happy today. She was wearing a net saree and she was giving orders to all the servants for something. When she saw Sarah, she came forward and pulled Sarah into her arms and kissed Liam on the cheek. Today she greeted Sara from the heart like she was completely changed or very happy so she didn't have the thought of mocking Sara.

She also gave Avery a side hug and asked a maid to toom them up to their room. As they entered the mansion, all eyes halted on them. And all those who had never knew Sarah started to wonder 'who is she?'

Everyone's eyes fell on Avery and soon the big hall started whispering about her beauty.

Especially young men became fascinated by her beauty at first sight and started looking at her in such a way like 'she is a piece of fresh meat and they are all ready to attack her at any moment.'

And the girls in the hall began to feel jealous of her from that moment. Those persons who knew Sarah immediately came forward and greeted her.

Behind Sarah and Avery was Sebastian, who had luggage in both hands walking unemotionally behind them. After arriving in the room, Avery first called to Alex. Alex told her that 'he is currently at the airport and will be leaving in ten minutes.' He had a very important meeting which he had already postponed many times but he could not delay that meeting anymore.

Hearing about his departure she felt pain in her heart but she masked her feeling and said goodbye to him happily.

Avery was sitting in the garden wearing high neck, long sleeves top paired with denim jeans. On her lap was her little brother who was licking the ice cream with a lot of concentration. Avery had one hand wrapped around Liam's chubby stomach and the other hand was mobile. She was chatting with Raina and Emily.

Some time ago, Sara was also with them but one of Sara's aunts took her from there. Avery thought Sarah's aunts were very friendly. Even though her aunt was an old lady, her thoughts seemed modern to Avery.

There was a group of girls was sitting a short distance from Avery. The girls' faces were caked with high make-up and all of them were wearing shorts and revealing clothes. They were all giggling and chatting and it was clear from their appearance that they were ready to go somewhere. From time to time they all were looking at the door of the mansion, which made it clear that they were waiting for someone.

Avery's gaze from that girl's group broke when she heard the ting of her mobile. She looked at her mobile screen where David's message popped up and she started chatting with them. Liam had finished his ice cream and was now eating a Sandwich. This sandwich was brought for him by Sarah because he was very hungry. And Avery had refused her mother because she didn't want to eat anything.

While Avery was busy replying to David's message, someone tapped her on the shoulder. There was a girl when she lifted her head and looked at up. The girl was two to three years older than Avery and she was wearing a black colour bodycon dress which was reaching up to her mid-thighs.

"Hi, I'm Rina." The girl's lips curved into a bright smile. "If I'm not wrong, you are Sara Aunty's daughter Avery and this is your brother Liam." She asked little excitedly.

"Yes, But how you know."

"It's very simple. I just guessed." She said and she made herself comfortable on the empty chair in front of Avery.

Rina was a bubbly character and she loved to make new friends. She started chatting nonstop with Avery.

Rina was the bride's younger sister and Avery found her nature friendly and cheerful. From Rina, Avery found out that the group of girls who were a short distance away from her was waiting for the bride to arrive because they had all organized a bachelor party. Rina also invited Avery to the party but Avery refused to say she was not feeling well. In such a delicate condition, Avery could not take any risk and she did not know any of the girls. She had met Sara's cousin before but had never met her daughters.

While the two were busy chatting, someone called Rina and they both looked in the direction of the voice.

"My sister is there." A bright smile formed on Rina's lips, "And the bride of this wedding." The glow in her eyes and the smile on her painted lips made it clear that Rina loves her sister very much.

She finally got up from her seat to leave, "I'll catch you later." She said before leaving.

After she left, Avery looked at the bride for a deep minute. She was wearing a dark red gown. That gown had a slit reaching up to her thigh with a deep neck that was showing a very little amount of her cleavage. Avery could tell from her aura that she was a strong woman.

The train of her thoughts broke when she heard the sound of someone clearing his throat. She turned her eyes and this time the young man was standing in front of her. Avery was sitting on the chair and the young man was standing at their full height so that his height was dominating the small figure of Avery.

"Hi!" He said simply and sat down on an empty chair.

"Hello!" She greeted him back. Avery didn't know that man who had sharp facial features with pinch black eyes. But she could tell at a glance that the young man was Indian. She avoided ignoring him because she didn't feel bad vibes from him and even then there was no one to communicate with her after Rina left because her little radio was sleeping peacefully on her lap.
