Chapter 55 My Ex-husband Died


    Chapter 55 My Ex-husband Died


    It was not wrong to say that humans were inherently nosy. Many years ago, Avery gave up a promising


    career and got married in secret. Over the years, her secret spouse had be a mystery at Astrie


    University.


    Nichs was a senior who seemed detached from worldly affairs, but he was particrly warm to her,


    which naturally sparked endless spection among everyone.


    Although Jacob didn''t say a word, Avery could feel the strong and endless oppression from him.


    Avery put down her fork and elegantly wiped the corner of her lips. "Are you that curious?"


    "Yes, Avery, don''t keep us guessing. Only the ending of One Piece and the identity of your secret


    spouse can make me so curious."


    "Right, I want to know too."


    Avery looked around and a beautiful smile appeared on her lips.


    "As for my secret spouse..." When she said this, her gaze paused for a second on Jacob''s face.


    His handsome face still showed no expression, making it impossible to detect any emotional


    fluctuations. Only his right thumb and index finger slowly rubbed against the back of his left hand.


    Having been with him for several years, Avery understood very well that this was his signal of danger.


    He didn''t want her to mention anything rted to him.


    Ignoring the pain in her heart, Avery continued with a smile, "Instead of calling him a secret spouse, it''s


    better to refer to him as my ex-husband."


    La, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke, "Oh? Who is your ex-husband?"


    La didn''t say much, obviously waiting to see the drama unfold.


    Avery changed the topic. "Others don''t know, but do you not know either, Miss White?"


    Before La could react, Andrew eximed in surprise, "Avery, you got divorced?"


    "Yes, divorced. To be precise, I am widowed. My husband passed away not long ago."


    Because of the tense atmosphere, Isabe had just raised her wine ss and taken a sip. Hearing


    Avery''s words, she couldn''t help but spit out the wine. It took her a great effort to suppress herughter.


    Wiping the wine off Sam''s face while holding back her smile, Isabe said, "Sorry, I just suddenly


    thought of something sad. I can vouch for it. Avy''s husband is dead, and he died quite tragically."


    Everyone began to talk and eagerly asked, "Although this topic is a bit impolite, we really are curious.


    Avery, how did your husband die?"


    "He..." Avery nced at Jacob, who already had a clear look of displeasure on his face.

    They were already divorced. Did she still have to consider his feelings? She deeply remembered the


    pain he had caused her over the past year.


    Avery continued, "Originally, family matters should not be made public, but you are not strangers, so it''s


    fine to say it. He..."


    Isabe, knowing that Avery was kindhearted and would not speak ill of Jacob, took the initiative to


    interrupt her and said, "He deserved it. At first, he was so devoted to Avy, but once the novelty wore off,


    he immediately started fooling around with another woman. Some women nowadays are so mean.


    Once they meet a wealthy man, they don''t care if he has a wife and just throw themselves at him..."


    La mmed her fork down and scolded coldly, "Enough!"


    "Miss White, I wasn''t talking about you. Why are you so angry?" Isabe retorted.
