Arrogant Man VS Unyielding Woman

Chapter 563 I Accept

Moore did it just the way Jean had asked him to but he wasn't sure whether it was going to work or not.

Standing aside, Zed put on a pleased look.

Judging from the surprised and moved look on Avery's face, she was obviously touched by Moore's

words.

Zed couldn't help but admit that Jean indeed knew Avery quite well. Avery's reaction proved Jean was

right.

Slowly, Avery took a deep breath and looked at Moore. As far as she knew, it was the first time that

Moore had talked to her so much.

No matter what, this brought a weird kind of contentment in her heart.

"All right. I accept." Lifting the corner of her lips, Avery nodded.

Zed and Moore didn't expect that it would be so easy for Avery to say yes to this plan. They looked at

her with their stunned faces.

In truth, they were prepared for using persuasive words to make her go.

But now, Avery already accepted it just after hearing Moore's words.

"Avery, do you really agree to it?" Zed asked again to make sure his ears hadn't played tricks on him.

"Of course. You invited me with sincerity. How can I refuse it?"

Avery replied with a smile.

"But you didn't even hesitate. Aren't you afraid that Adolf will go insane when he notices that you are

not in the hospital any more?" Zed asked with concern in his voice.

"I've thought about it earlier. It's all right since, I'll leave just for a few days," Avery answered with

confidence dancing on her face.

"Are you sure about it? Adolf was so angry when he learnt that you got sick and got into the hospital.

And he wasn't afraid to show his anger even in front of us. How could that be all right?" Moore also

didn't believe it so he asked with confusion written all over his face.

"Believe me. Adolf may be hard on the outside but he has a good heart. He is not as harsh as you

think. Relax! I'll just leave for a few days. The worst result is that I'll be scolded by him. I really need a

few days of rest since my schedule has been tight lately," Avery explained.

"Do you still believe it was right of Adolf to get himself drunk when he learnt that you wanted to pretend

to be sick?"

Eyebrows furrowed into a frown, Zed asked.

He still found Avery's reaction strange.

"Got himself drunk? Adolf is not such kind of person. I don't think that is possible. Besides, he is a self-

disciplined man. There's no way he would do that."

Avery let out a laughter as she didn't believe Zed's words.

"Are you sure?" Upon hearing Avery's reply, Zed's frown deepened. He turned to Moore helplessly.

Moore was wearing an odd look on his face and shook his head towards Zed.

"Yeah, I'm sure about it. We've already known each other for three years. I have never seen him go for

a drink alone. He took an oath that he would not be drunk any more since he thought drinking too much

would dull his mind. Once his girlfriend was kidnapped while he was drunk. He wasn't in a sane mind to

help her. So he is still guilty about it. His girlfriend got killed then. The pain was so extreme that he

spent two years drowning in sorrow. Moreover, he left his gangs because of that."

"He used to be in the gangs?" Zed was slightly relieved when he heard Avery.

Even though Albert lied to them a lot, he didn't lie about Adolf's identity.

"Yes. After that, he was heartbroken for a long time. Then he met me when I was taking part in a talent

show. He said that I looked like his girlfriend and offered to be my manager. I got to know him since

then. And he explored and developed Vikki's career from then on."

Avery paused for a second and took a deep breath before she continued, "So he is just doing what is

the best for me. He may seem a bit harsh at times. But I know that he cares about me. Sometimes I

can sense that he tries to make it up to me out of his guilt and self-accusation towards his girlfriend."

Hearing Avery's words, Zed and Moore were touched.

Adolf believed he was responsible for his girlfriend's tragic death.

Then he transferred his love for his girlfriend and gave it to Avery.

It was not hard to guess that Adolf contributed a lot to Avery's achievement.

However, what Albert claimed was different from Avery's words. 'What was on Albert's mind?' Zed

wondered. "Albert looks so similar to Adolf.

Are they twins?"

Zed asked, looking at Avery.

Moore couldn't help but take a look at Zed as he didn't understand why Zed had asked that question.

They looked so similar. To Moore, it was evident that they were twins.

"Yeah. Albert is Adolf's younger brother. Adolf arranged him to be by my side when I became more and

more famous. Every time Adolf got busy, he would ask Albert to take care of me," Avery nodded her

head and replied.

"So Albert is not just your personal assistant as he told us," Zed asked with his frown deepened.

"Of course not. How's that possible? He and Adolf helped me a lot. They have done a lot for me." Avery

couldn't help but put on a smile. But all of a sudden, she seemed to remember something and her

lovely face darkened. She turned to Zed and asked, "Did Albert tell you that he was just my personal

assistant?"

"Yeah. He also told us that Adolf was harsh with you and didn't treat you well. He said that Adolf would

go for a drink tonight and asked us to come here and pick you up," Zed replied.

Avery's face turned pale as she heard Zed's answer.

"What's wrong?"

Zed and Moore were worried as they noticed Avery's pale face.

"I know why he said that. He must hate me deep in his heart." Avery put on a bitter smile and added,

"He was hoping to use this problem so that I would finally leave Adolf."

The look on Zed's and Moore's faces became more serious when they heard that Avery claimed to

know the reason behind Albert's lies.

"What's the matter then? Time is running out. Just fill us in briefly," Zed said since they couldn't afford

any more secrets.

"How about we get out of the hospital first?" Moore suggested since it seemed dangerous to stay here

longer.

The look on Zed's face was complicated at the moment as he felt stupid for believing Albert.

"Obviously, Albert was after something since he lured us to come here and sent away the two guards

for us. If we leave now, then his trick to get Avery and Adolf to fight with each other will succeed," Zed

replied.

"Then what should we do now?" Upon hearing Zed's words, Moore got worried and fear took over him.

However, Zed didn't reply him this time. Instead, Zed turned to Avery.

Avery noticed Zed's staring and said with a bitter smile, "Adolf was drunk once on a party. Only Albert

and Adolf were left in the box as everyone else already left. When I returned from the restroom to fetch

my handbag, Albert was drunk as well. But when I stepped into the box, I saw that he was staring at

Adolf with pure hatred in his vicious eyes. The hatred in Albert's eyes was so scary that it seemed as if

he was going to kill Adolf."

As soon as Avery finished her words, she closed her eyes and her face turned more pale.

Zed and Moore opened their mouth in utter shock on hearing this. Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
