Billionaire Defiant Wife

Chapter 643: Stop Your Nonsense

Avery wasn't surprised at all. She ran into him at the hotel under the tough circumstances. She couldn't think of anybody else other than Evan who could make efforts to turn the tide in A Country.

She knew the answer. But her heart was trembling after hearing Jamie said it.

He told the lawyer to turn her down because he wanted to solve Jessica's situation on his own?

If George were Evan, he would be with her in a different identity. They experienced a terrorist attack together. And they fought shoulder by shoulder in the secret tunnel full of tricks devised by Molly.

Evan never left her side.

The tears gathered in Avery's eyes at the thought that Evan was always with her. She suddenly didn't know what to say.

Jamie thought that mentioning Evan upset Avery. So he didn't talk more about it.

Charles opened the car door and came out. Avery said in a hurry, "Let's take Jessica home first."

The Clifford Mansion looked old in the silence of the night. The family went through a great loss within the year. They weren't as powerful and rich as when Avery first met Andrew.

The maid opened the door for them. Jamie held Jessica in. And Avery and Jessica followed them.

It was late at night. So they assumed Jessica's mother must be asleep. To their complete surprise, the water was poured at them.

It was cold water. And it was in winter. They felt the iciness penetrating bones.

Jamie didn't have time to respond, "Mrs. Clifford, you..."He didn't protect Jessica from getting poured by water.

Avery, on the other side, was behind them. And Charles stood in front of her. So water only splashed on her sleeves.

Jessica's younger sister, Caitan Clifford, stood next to their mother. She gloated at Jessica, who was wet from the water.

Mr. Clifford was more serious than Caitan, "You are a murderer. I am washing you properly with grapefruit water since you just leave the police station. So you would not sully the air."

"Yeah. I know you're very capable of getting help. But that doesn't change. You are a murderer."

Jessica was wet from top to bottom. Her hair was dripping water. And more water ran down along her bangs.

Jessica kept her head lowered and didn't respond. Avery had a theory. Jessica was not afraid of anybody or anything when she had James as a personal bodyguard. Or she would not pull the trick to her.

Avery had no idea whether losing memory was good or bad for Jessica. Andrew asked her to take care of Jessica. This was the last thing she wanted to see.

Avery sneered. She stood next to Jessica, "Mrs. Clifford, both Jessica, and Caitan are your daughters. Why do you play favorites?"

"Who the hell do you think you are? You're not Evan Howel's wife anymore. You're in no position to mind our family business."

"Mom, without Avery, Andrew would not have such a horrible end. Andrew saved her..."

"Andrew gave up his life to save you. You live well, I see. Are you the princess of B Country? Why don't you help us when we have the worst of luck? If you don't want to help us, don't bark."

Mrs. Clifford used the word "bark." She was treating Avery like a dog.

Avery, instead of getting angry, she smiled, "Andrew saved my life. He asked me to take care of Jessica. But he didn't say anything about you. Maybe he didn't want me to help you. And seeing you bully Jessica..."

"Stop your nonsense. I'm not bullying Jessica, okay? She killed someone. Do you want me to cover her up?"

"Mamai's family decide to drop it. Mr. Clifford, are you defending him so much because of your romantic past with him?"

Mrs. Clifford's look changed immediately. She was both guilty and mad. The last time she wound up on the same with Mamai was because of Avery. Mrs. Clifford was so mad that she rushed downstairs to take out a mob. She yelled, "I know it's you. You're behind it! I'll hit you the evil bitch to death!"

The mop went down at Avery. Mrs. Clifford shouted, "It's you! It's your fault that my family is ashamed and humiliated!"

Charles and Jamie stopped Mrs. Clifford at the same time.

Avery wasn't afraid of her. But Mrs. Clifford and Caitan were not easy to get along with. She was afraid Jessica would not have a good life with them.

Even if Jessica didn't do anything, there would be problems.

Avery suddenly had an idea. She suddenly looked next to Caitan, "Avery, you heard it all?'

Mrs. Clifford was trying to gain back control of the mop. She paused, hearing what Avery said.

Caitan looked at the spot next to her. She took back her sight fast like she was afraid of something.

"Bitch, what the hell are you talking about?"

"I'm not. Don't you see Andrew?"

Avery knew she owed a lot to Andrew, and she shouldn't bother him. But, if she didn't mention his name, Jessica might get in a worse situation.

Avery believed Andrew in heaven would forgive her for what she did.

"Shut up! Don't you mention Andrew's name! It's your fault he's dead. You don't deserve to mention his name!"

"Avery, do you come back because of Jessica?" Avery put on a sad look, "I know this is your family. You see everything that is happening here."

Caitan couldn't help holding herself with both arms. Mrs. Clifford turned, very unhappy. She shouted, "Where is my maid? Get them out of my house!"

The maid came running. Jamie gave her a harsh look, and she didn't dare to move.

Jamie spent a lot of time working for Andrew. The maids in Clifford Mansion were in awe of him. And he had great kung-fu skills. So they were afraid of him.

"What are you doing? Why aren't you listening to my order? Get them out of here!"

But no one moved. Mrs. Clifford was mad.

Caitan was afraid since Avery brought up Andrew. She felt some shadow was around her. She got chills on her spine immediately.

Mrs. Clifford and Caitan were not as arrogant and overbearing as they were before.

But Avery couldn't stay here to look after Jessica all the time. She called the bodyguards, who followed her from B Country. She asked them to stay with Jessica and not let her mother and sister one step near her. Jamie was in charge of taking care of Jessica. So she was reassured.

The only thing that troubled her was that her mother and sister would do everything to torture Jessica after she left.

"Who are they? Do you think they can come to my house? I'm suing you for break-in."

Avery looked at Mrs. Clifford coldly. She pointed at her nose, swearing, like an unreasonable bitch.

"Sue me, please. I can bail Jessica out. What makes you think I'll fear you?"

Mrs. Clifford was too furious to say anything. She couldn't make a sound pointing at Avery's nose.

Avery called Jamie seeing Mrs. Clifford incapable of fighting back. She said, "Jamie, what do you think I bring Jessica to B Country with me?"

Jamie turned pale with fright because James Moore was in B Country...
