Chapter 388

The instant Avery stepped out of Emeric’s car, the Ashbourne family was taken aback.

Evadne frowned in disbelief.

Emeric was known for his high standards and aloof demeanor.

Apart from his own children, no one else, not even Thaddeus, the most influential among the Elmsworths; had ever been allowed to ride in his car.

But now, Avery was not only in his car but also standing close to Emeric. It was indeed a surprising sight.

If Evadne wasn’t mistaken, Emeric had been quite indifferent towards Avery just a few days ago. What brought about this sudden change?

“Avery, you’re looking much better. I’m so glad,” said Evadne, breaking the silence.

With a gentle smile in her eyes, Avery walked towards Evadne, holding a bunch of bright pink flowers. “To celebrate your discharge from the hospital, Evadne.” Evadne looked at the blooming roses in front of her, blinking softly.

“Thank you, Ave,” she said, accepting the roses.

“These are your favorite flowers. I picked them from the field this morning,” Avery said, sincerity twinkling in her eyes.

The Ashbourne family exchanged looks, sensing the subtle change in the atmosphere.

“Thank you for your thoughtfulness, but you really didn’t have to.” Evadne held the roses, her lips parting slightly, her eyes slightly glazed.

“I can do anything for you,” Avery said, gazing at her with deep affection.

Evadne bit her lip, unsure of what to say.

This blatant confession was even more overwhelming than the roses in her hand.

Thaddeus watched Evadne and Avery interact, feeling a sharp sting in his throat. It was bitter and painful, like a taste of blood.

The next moment, his breath hitched.

Emeric, tall and upright, stepped out of his Rolls Royce and stood next to Avery, like a father–son duo.

Avery smiled warmly at the elder, blending perfectly into the Ashbourne family.

Emeric patted his shoulder with a smile, revealing a significant change in their relationship.

Thaddeus‘ eyes reddened, and he punched a tree in frustration.

He couldn’t accept it!

But what could he do? Appear in front of the Ashbourne family and upset Evadne?

He couldn’t hurt her anymore, not ever.
