I Hope You Will Never Regret

Chapter 129 Birthday Banquet 1



The following morning, Lily approached Uncle August in his study room and said, “I am sorry, uncle, I have to return the Penthouse keys, I don’t want to leave my aunt alone here.”

Uncle August smiled and replied, “Lily, I was not trying to chase you out of the Martins mansion.” It was clear that his wife had persuaded Lily to return the Penthouse keys. He took the set of keys and put them in his drawer.

Aunt Elizabeth told Lily that she would invite the Prince family and the Black family to her birthday banquet, which would be on the 13th at His Grace Hotel.

She told her that she had booked the 10th private room for her birthday banquet. Lily was over the moon.

During breakfast, Mr Martins looked at Bridgette and said, “Bridgette, thank you so much for everything. I will never forget what you have done for me.

I am eternally grateful to you for giving me a helping hand.” Then he gave her the set of keys.

Bridgette was overjoyed. She hugged Avery tightly and said, “Thank you, Uncle August. I love my gift a lot.” Then she looked at Avery and said, “Sweetheart, please accompany me to see my house.”

Lily was fuming with anger; how could Uncle August give Bridgette her Penthouse? She was going to tell her uncle that she had changed her mind. She wanted to snatch the set of keys from Bridgette, but she was scared of Avery.

Unbeknownst to her, Uncle August had prepared two Penthouses for her and Bridgette. The set of keys that she had returned was still lying in the drawer in the study room.

After breakfast, Aunt Bridgette and Avery went to Umhlanga to see her house. Bridgette was shocked to see that Uncle August had gifted her with the luxurious Penthouse.

When she saw the address, she thought it was a beach house. They took the private lift to the 40th floor. Aunt Bridgette took the set of keys from her bag and opened the door.

When they entered the Penthouse, they were greeted by a beautifully decorated open-plan lounge and dining room. The floors were made of wood. Then they walked to the fully fitted kitchen with a marble floor.

There was a spiral staircase leading to the first floor. The penthouse had three spacious bedrooms with an en-suite. Bridgette was stunned when she saw a luxurious and spacious master bedroom.

Avery hugged Aunt Bridgette and said, “Your Penthouse is beautiful. I am so happy for you.”

Aunt Bridgette took Avery’s hand and went to the guest room and said, “This is your bedroom. Please visit me during the holidays.” Avery smiled brightly at Aunt Bridgette and thanked her.

The Penthouse was sophisticated; it was a sanctuary of luxury and beauty. They walked to the balcony. The view was breathtaking; it was overlooking the Majestic Indian Ocean.

There was also a spacious study room not far from her bedroom. Then they walked outside. They were attracted by a beautiful garden and a swimming pool.

Aunt Bridgette was so happy and called her mother and said, “Mommy, Uncle August gave me a stunning Penthouse. Please thank him for me, Mom.”

Her mother was happy for her daughter and said, “Congratulations, my beautiful daughter. We have to do a housewarming party, Sweetheart.” Then they hung up the phone.

Two hours later, Aunt Bridgette received a call from her gallery indicating that there was a client who was looking for her.

Avery asked Aunt Bridgette to drop her at His Own Image Boutique. Aunt Joy had called her and told her that her gown was ready.

Avery went to Aunt Joy’s office to greet her. Aunt Joy smiled brightly and said, “Congratulations my stunning Avery for your excellent academic performance. I am proud of you.”

Avery thanked her, and then she walked around feasting her eyes with beautiful dresses. Aunt Joy was walking behind her.

While she was looking around, she saw a stunning wedding dress. She fell in love with it at first sight. It was as if the wedding dress was calling her name, asking her to buy it. She didn’t even look at the prize. She asked Aunt Joy to pack it for her.

The wedding dress was none other than the wedding dress which was designed by Xavier Taylor ten years ago for his soulmate.

Avery smiled at Aunt Joy and said, “Wow Aunt Joy, I think when you designed this wedding dress you had me in your mind.”

Aunt Joy smiled and replied, “This wedding dress was designed by a young man for his soulmate.” Avery gave her a black card to pay for the wedding dress, but Aunt Joy told her that it was on the house.NôvelDrama.Org holds this content.

Avery was dumbfounded when she heard that and replied, “Who knows, maybe I am his soulmate. Aunt Joy, do me a favour. Please keep this matter confidential.”

Aunt Joy looked at Avery with sadness in her eyes because young Mr Taylor was already married. She packed Avery’s gown and the wedding dress and asked her chauffeur to drop Avery at home.

The Shelton family arrived on Wednesday morning. Mr Martins arranged for them to stay at His Glory Hotel. However, their sons stayed at the Martins mansion in Avery’s bedroom.

In the blink of an eye, it was Avery’s birthday banquet. It was held at His Grace Hotel on the 50th Floor. The guests started to arrive at the venue at 5 pm with gifts. The venue was lavishly decorated.

Aiden wanted to attend his sister’s birthday banquet, but his mother told him that she needed some help with Lily’s birthday banquet. Initially, Aiden was shocked that his mother was competing with her biological daughter.

Avery, Gabriella, Aunt Bridgette, and Godmother Mia were relaxing in the luxurious Presidential suite on the 55th Floor. It was her birthday gift from the Taylor family. Aunt Caroline had arranged a make-up artist for her.

At 17:30, they took the lift to the 50th floor. Avery looked like a fairy in a gorgeous custom-made pearl-embellished tulle off-the-shoulder crimson red gown.

It showed her curvaceous body and slim figure. Her make-up was exquisite and impeccable.

Siyabonga approached Avery with his parents. They were a stunning couple. Siyabonga was his father’s replica. He smiled brightly at her and said, “You look gorgeous my dearest sister. This is my father and my mother.”

Minister Cele kissed Avery on both cheeks and said, “Congratulations on being the top achiever. The country is proud of you, and we are expecting great things from you.”

Avery thanked him, and then Siyabonga’s mother hugged her and said, “Happy birthday, Miss Martins. You are so beautiful. Congratulations on your achievements.”

Avery smiled sweetly at Mrs Cele and replied, “Thank you, Auntie, I heard a lot of good things about you from my brother.” Mrs Cele smiled at Avery and hugged her again.

After they left, Gabriella walked to her and asked, “Who is that handsome young man? He took my breath away.”

Avery smiled and replied, “He is my elder brother, and his name is Siyabonga Cele. He is the youngest son of Minister Cele. He is handsome and kind-hearted.”

Gabriella feigned unhappiness and said, “You have such a good-looking brother, but you didn’t tell me. He is divine. I fell in love with him at first sight. Quickly, please introduce me to him. He is my soulmate.”
