Chapter 129 Unraveling Secrets and Emotions
However, Avery smiled gently. "I thought he was just using you as a pawn to get back at me."
"Why would you think that?" Jacob''s brows furrowed. He couldn''t shake the feeling that something was
off about Avery tonight.
He had wanted to say a few more words, but with La causing a scene like this, he would have to
clean up the mess she had made.
Waiting for him was not only the tearful La but also the hellish White family.
He handed the room card to Avery. "Go back to your room and change your clothes."
As long as she changed her clothes, no one would know it was her just now. As for the rumors on the
inte, Jacob could easily handle them.
He didn''t know what Avery was plotting in her heart. In order to ease the previous embarrassment, the
fireworks originally scheduled for ten o''clock were set off two hours early.
In the freezing weather, the fireworks shot up, attracting arge crowd of onlookers.
The deck, covered with a thickyer of snow, was bustling with people.
The dazzling fireworks disy momentarily made everyone forget the previous awkwardness, all
enjoying this beautiful moment.
Even though they held high positions, no one could refuse a fleeting moment of beauty.
Except for Sarah, who was crying with her face covered, Andrew stood by her side, being a gentleman
and consoling her. "You''re already this old, so it''s time to use your brain."
Sarah was now deeply regretful. The p from La wasn''t important; what was important was Avery.
"I had no idea that the man behind her was Mr. Hill. If Mr. Hill finds out that I nned this, not to
mention my shares, the Lee family will be truly finished!"
"That''s why I said you''re foolish."
"ke!" Sarah hadn''t thought of this aspect. Naively, she thought that Avery was Mr. Hill''s kept woman.
Even if she were a kept woman, she would be Mr. Hill''s woman.

Who didn''t know that Mr. Hill was especially protective? Sarah stomped her feet in anxiety, her face
filled with worry. How would she handle things from now on? She was sure she wouldn''t be able to
survive in this circle.
Just then, she saw Avery appear in the corridor. She held both resentment and fear towards Avery. She
just couldn''t spare her with her words. "Don''t think that by snaring Mr. Hill, you''ve climbed to great
heights. Mr. Hill is just ying around. You''ve offended the White family; you don''t even know how
you''ll end up."
She still didn''t know that Avery was Mr. Hill''s ex-wife.
Andrew truly admired her for being so foolish. However, Mr. Hill had kept his identity hidden for so long,
so he couldn''t reveal it now. He quickly stepped in front of her. "Avery, she always speaks without
thinking. Please don''t mind her."
Avery nodded at Andrew, and the secret between them was understood without being spoken.
Her gaze fell on Sarah, her voice soft but devoid of any warmth. "Can''t I choose to live or even choose
to die?"
Sarah was intimidated by the coldness in her eyes and didn''t know how to respond.
Sarah whispered, "ke, why do I find her so strange? What did she mean by what she just said?"
"I don''t know. I just have a bad feeling about it."
"Bang!"
The fireworks continued to rise, illuminating the night as bright as day.
Ethan didn''t like such noisy ces. Since it was getting a bit rowdy, La had someone take him back
to his room. It was time for him to sleep.
Gail carried him back to the room. However, Ethan pointed towards the cake not far away, babbling.
"Mr. Ethan, you can''t eat sweets at night, or you''ll get cavities."
Ethan didn''t listen to her words. The cake looked just like the one his mother made. Since he couldn''t
see his mother, couldn''t he at least have a few pieces of the cake she made?
Gail had no choice but to put him down andpromise, "Mr. Ethan, I''ll get it for you. Just wait for me."
As soon as she left, Ethan saw Avery in the corridor, and his big eyes lit up.
Mom was here!
