Billionaire Defiant Wife

Chapter 589: They Made Way For Him

Evan looked at her wallet, "How much do you think you should pay?"

Avery sneered. So he was afraid she didn't pay him enough.

And she asked, "How much do you want? '

Evan smiled, "That depends on how much you think your life is worth."

Avery sneered again. She thought he wanted to take advantage of the situation.

Her sneer turned into despise. She promised she'd pay him before she got in the car. She would keep her promise. But she would not be ripped off just because he asked for a ridiculously high price.

Avery sneered, "My life isn't worth that much as you think."

Evan said with a deep look, "On the opposite, I think you're priceless."

For a moment, Avery saw two faces becoming one. She almost said, Evan. But she held it back because Evan didn't look like that.

She chose not to think about him these last days. But his face came back as soon as she saw a man with a similar face.

She couldn't help it. She thought of him all the time. But she couldn't forget what he did to her. All her feelings turned into a sharp sword stabbing in her heart. It was so much pain.

Avery gasped. She tried really hard to hold back her feelings. Looking up, she saw his serious look through his long eyelashes, and sneered, "Are you hitting on me?"

"Yeah, "the man admitted, "can't I?"

Avery looked ahead. After they left the tunnel, they could see people, cars, and wooden cottages in various styles.

They would reach the vacation center soon. It was a giant architecture in the center of the island. It was blue sun-blocking glasses. The sun, after the reflection, shined somewhere else.

Avery took her to look back. She wanted to say no. But she was still in his car. She would not gain a positive position if she said no.

She just wanted to stall until she got out of the car, and got rid of the strange man.

"You want to hit on me?" Avery looked at him quietly, "Do you know me?"

"What?" Evan asked deliberately.

"I bring bad luck to my husband. Don't you know?"

Evan's look changed. Was Avery just cursing him?

"Everyone with me ended up badly. You should see my ex-husband. His reputation is ruined and has so many lawsuits. What is worse is that he's incapable of getting an erection. I don't think he can date anybody..."

Avery said seriously.

Avery thought the man was shocked because of what she said. She was about to say more when the man said first, "I don't mind."

Avery wasn't surprised. He was so calm when the policeman held the gun against his head. So he would not be intimidated by words.

Avery put her hands on the car door secretly. The car stopped at the vacation center.

"Unfortunately, I do."

Avery pulled the door to get out of the car. According to the police, it would take at least 2 or 3 hours before the town got back to normal. After she got out of the car, she had to wait if she wanted to go back. So she could take a walk in the neighborhood.

But the door was locked. Avery couldn't get out.

"I see you don't like your ex-husband very much."

Evan crossed his legs and sat in the spacious room. He looked casual and asked in the same manner. It was like he didn't care at all.

Avery slowly turned around, "None of your business."

Evan said, "I'm afraid you can't go back today."

Avery glared at him. was his plan locking her in the car and keeping her a prisoner?

A man from the hotel passed by. Avery smacked the window as hard as she could to get his attention.

Ahhh

Evan got up and went over Avery to grab her hand, whispering, "Look up."

Avery was shocked by his sudden moves. She started trembling. This was the second man that she responded so greatly apart from Evan.

Her heartbeat was so fast. And she even looked up as he said.

On the sign of the hotel, it said the submarine tunnel is closed temporarily because of the terrorist attack downtown. The tunnel will be open on further notice.

That was what he meant.

Click

The door was opened, and it was the man who did it.

Avery got out of the car without hesitation. She ran into the hotel and was a mess.

It was in the afternoon. After 3 hours, it would be night. The place was a mess, and the traffic was closed.

She decided to stay in the hotel for the time being. Then she would think of something to reach the president's house.

The hotel reception was big. But it was crowded. They were all asking for spare rooms.

The receptionist wore make-up and smiled, "I'm sorry, guys, we're booked. Please check other hotels."

"Is your presidential suite also booked? Can it do?"

"The president suite is also booked."

"No one checked out? '

"Sorry, no."

Avery stood behind them. She didn't have to ask then. They didn't have any rooms left.

She squeezed the phone. If she called the president's house for help now...

Then she shook her head to deny it. They couldn't get here because of the closed traffic. They could get here by plane. But they must be busy with the terrorist attack.

She looked back, and a lot sat in the hall. It seemed they planned to stay here.

No one could really shut their eyes tonight. No one knew when the police would catch the terrorists, and the traffic could be open.

Everyone would be worried and couldn't leave the house at night.

Avery walked next to the reception to think of something else.

At the time, a tall man came to the reception with his id.

The people in front of the reception stepped aside because his presence was too strong. They made way for him.

Avery looked at him. He was alone, and the drive didn't come.

The receptionist nodded and took over his id with both hands. Then she typed his information on the computer, "Sir, we've reserved the president suite for you. You could check-in."

The hotel reserved one room for him?

Avery couldn't help giving him a closer look.

He wore the custom-made navy blue striped suits and a white shirt. And he had a tie. He was tall and handsome and walked on the clean floors. He looked like a nobleman with his grace and indifference.

The man stood in front of her and handed her over the room card...
