Reclaiming the CEO's Heart

Chapter 113 Met Ben

Chapter 113 Met Ben

Jacob failed to kill Martin in the first car accident, so in the second one, he wanted to anger Martin to

death. However, Martin didn't die and became a vegetable.

Avery clenched her fingers bit by bit, and her eyes were filled with immense hatred.

As the sky darkened, Jason took her to the airport.

Avery had a simple meal at the airport. It no longer mattered whether her father could wake up or not.

What mattered was that as long as she was alive, she wouldn't let them off easy!

Anyway, she couldn't live long. She could make a few more people suffer with her.

Avery rested in the lounge for a while, looking at the flight schedule. She arrived five minutes early so

that Jacob would think she was still as foolish as before, waiting here all along.

The weather in Astrie had been good these past two days, with clear skies and no snow. Therefore, the

plane arrived on time.

When Jacob walked out of the VIP channel, Avery was about to approach him when she noticed

someone standing beside him.

Although she had only seen that man once, she would never forget him in her lifetime.

Ben.

He was the one who took Lily away from the Adams family back then, the father of Layla.

Jacob and Ben walked side by side. Her mother couldn't forget Ben for so many years and left

everything behind to be with him, so Ben was naturally extraordinary.

To be fair, Martin and Ben were equally good-looking, but Martin had an elegant temperament while

Ben seemed more like a sharp knife.

Just like now, he was already staring at her with a sharp gaze.

Avery's heart sank, and the hairs on her back stood up as if she were being stared at by a wild beast.

Back then, she was so young. She didn't know if he recognized her.

As it turned out, not only did he recognize her, but he also stopped in front of her. His deep voice rang

out, "Miss Adams, are you waiting for someone?"

For a moment, Avery didn't know how to face him.

This was a grudge between the elders, but for a long time, she felt that he had taken away her mother,

making her a child without a mother.

"Yes," Avery replied in a calm voice, glancing at Jacob. Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

Ben restrained the killing intent in his eyes. Perhaps feeling guilty towards her, he softened his voice

and said, "Your mother often mentioned you in the past few years. Now that we're all in Astrie, the

doors of the White family will always be open for you. You can come and reunite with your mother

anytime."

"Okay."

Avery looked at Jacob. His complexion was paler than before, with faint dark circles under his eyes,

indicating that he hadn't rested well these past two days.

Now that Ben was his father-in-law, Avery was somewhat curious about how he would treat his ex-wife

in front of Ben.

After all, Ben seemed to be a tough and uncompromising person. If Jacob dared to mistreat Layla, Ben

would probably attack him directly.

Avery remained silent, waiting for Jacob's reaction.

As it turned out, promises of love and sweet words were no match for reality.

He only glanced at her before diverting his gaze, treating her like a stranger.

Before parting, Ben politely said goodbye to her, while Jacob walked past with an expressionless face,

his long legs striding forward.

It was as if a cold gust of wind swept past, and she was embarrassed.

Avery understood that he didn't want to expose their relationship in front of Ben. Only after they left did

she walk out from another door.

Just as she opened the car door, a forceful hand pulled her into an embrace.
