Chapter 559 Poor Avery


    As the three of them chatted happily in the living room, Luke came in and informed that there was a tall


    and strong man waiting outside.


    "Is that Adolf? What is he doing here?" Confused, Jean turned to Zed for exnation.


    Zed couldn''t figure it out either so he said to Luke, "Let him in."


    Upon hearing Zed''s words, Luke left and then brought a tall and handsome man into the living room.


    Everyone in the living room was astonished once their eyes fell on the new guest. It was a familiar face


    yet there was something strange about it.


    ''How is that possible?'' they wondered.


    The handsome man lifted the corner of his lips when he noticed the surprised look on their faces. He


    said, "I''m Albert, the personal assistant of Avery. I''m also her best friend."


    "You are... Avery''s personal assistant?" Jean was startled at his words as she couldn''t help but look at


    Albert with a surprised face.


    "It seems that you don''t believe me," Albert replied with a smile.


    "Of course. Howe you look just like Adolf? If it wasn''t for the height difference and expression on


    your face, I would have thought you were him!"


    Jean replied sounding astonished.


    "He''s my elder brother. We are twins," Albert exined at once as his smile got bigger.


    "There it is. But don''t twins share the same height? Why are you shorter than your brother?" Jean


    couldn''t help but ask. This time her curiosity wanted answers.


    "It is probably because Adolf is more bossy than me. He must have taken my share of nutrition while


    we were still in our mother''s stomach. That''s why I''m a little shorter than him," Albert exined with a


    smile.


    The height difference was more than just an inch.


    "But I still don''t understand. Why are you being Avery''s personal assistant in spite of being a man? Are


    you willing to serve a woman just for high sry?" Jean doubted again and looked into Albert''s eyes


    suspiciously.


    "Of course not." Albert continued, "I was absorbed in gambling in the past so Adolf forced me to take


    care of Avery. Avery is nice to me. I''m used to being her personal assistant now." His face flushed red.


    It seemed that he was a little embarrassed.


    Jean couldn''t help but take another look at him as she didn''t totally understand what he meant. The


    reason behind his flushed face was also confusing to her.


    ''Is it because he is embarrassed to serve a woman since he is a man? Or is there any other reason?''


    Jean wondered.


    "So why are youing here?" Zed asked, looking at Albert.


    "Oh, right. I almost forget it." Albert suddenly realized what he was here for and tapped on his forehead


    for his stupidity. "I''m here to inform you that Adolf has learnt what Mrs. Qi and Avery have nned.


    Therefore, you have to put aside the n for now. Or I should say Avery has given up on the n."


    "What?" Upon hearing Albert''s words, Jean was astonished. She had never expected this would


    happen.


    In her surprise, she forgot about her injured foot and stood up.


    This brought a stabbing pain and she let out a cry.


    "Watch out," Zed said in a concerned voice as he held on to her at once.


    Jean put on a bitter smile as it was really painful but she didn''t want Zed to be worried.


    With Zed''s help, Jean sat down on the couch. Zed couldn''t help but ask, "How did Adolf get to know


    that? Did he eavesdrop on Avery?"


    "No, he didn''t." Albert shook his head in a hurry and added, "He realized that Avery was behaving a


    little strange and questioned her. Avery came clean and told him everything."


    "What? Is it Avery that told Adolf about our ns?" Jean was stunned when she heard Albert''s


    exnation.


    "You can''t me her. You have no idea how scary Adolf is. Or I wouldn''t have bent over to him and


    followed his idea to be Avery''s personal assistant." Albert seemed afraid when he recalled the memory


    of his bossy brother.


    Jean couldn''t help but frown when she noticed that Albert was so scared of his brother.


    From this, she concluded that Adolf was indeed an intimidating man.


    Otherwise he wouldn''t have brought Avery''s and Albert''s lives under his control.


    If it was true, then things were moreplicated than Jean had anticipated.


    Now it would be more tough for Avery to stay for a few more days.


    "Then what can we do now? Are there any other ways besides pretending to be sick?" Jean turned to


    Zed with a helpless and curious look.


    Zed shook his head towards her as he had no better idea since he didn''t favor such tricks.


    Jean couldn''t help but look at Moore, who had been silent throughout the conversation.


    Seeing her look, Moore still remained silent and didn''t show any sign of ideas.


    Jean knew that he had no better idea so she turned to Albert atst.


    Noticing Jean''s expectant eyes, Albert shook his hands at once and said, "Don''t look at me. And don''t


    even ask me. I won''t go against my brother. Or he''ll make me suffer."


    "Is he that scary?" Jean asked as she couldn''t believe it.


    "He was a part of a gang before he became a manager. Believe me, he has tons of ways to deal with


    people. So don''t provoke him. Or he wille after you,"


    Albert replied in a hurry. There was warning in his voice.


    Hearing Albert''s words. Jean got worried at once and asked, "Will Adolf punish Avery since he already


    knows our scheme?"

    "Don''t worry. He is always tolerant with Avery. He didn''t do anything except for scolding her. But it is


    inevitable that he will make sure Avery''s schedule will be more tight. This is her punishment for now but


    it could get worse if the problem esctes,"


    Albert exined while he looked sorry for Avery.


    "He is so bossy. He is just a manager. How can he do that to Avery? Avery is an actress, not his


    puppet. He has no right to treat Avery like that,"


    Jean said as she got angry. This whole situation looked strange to her.


    "No matter what you have on your mind, I am warning you against doing something crazy. You''d better


    not act rashly since Avery doesn''t want to see you get involved in this mess. I can tell that she really


    cares for you. Even when she was being scolded by Adolf, she asked me to look for you. It was her


    intention to inform you everything that happened. She wanted you to know that she is delighted to have


    met you. Moreover, she lived some of her best times with you."


    As soon as Jean heard Albert''s words, she couldn''t help but allow the tears to flow out of her eyes.


    "Poor Avery... She is so poor. Isn''t she a shining celebrity? Howe she is living such a miserable


    life? I wish I could do something for her."


    "Actually, if you really want to help her, I have an idea,"


    Albert couldn''t help but say as he realized Jean was really concerned about Avery.
