Chapter 1622
Vicky nodded.
Cece looked at her and said in a low voice, "Vicky, Avery is here too."
"Avery?" repeated Vicky, surprised.
"Yes. She arrived not long ago. She says she wants to see you and won't leave no matter how many times I tell her
you're not here. She said she'll wait until you come." i
After thinking it over, Vicky said, "Show me to her."
Avery sat gracefully and played with her manicured nails in the meeting room.
Vicky pushed open the door and walked over to her. She looked at Avery, who smiled smugly at her the moment
she walked in.
"Miss Avery, I heard you were looking for me. How can I help you?" she asked with a raised eyebrow.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe wondered why Avery did not just call her if she wanted to talk to her. After all, it was more convenient than
making the effort to come to her studio.
"I heard your business is booming, so I thought I'd see for myself," said Avery languidly. She glanced at Vicky before
continuing, "You don't mind, do you, Miss Vicky?"
"Forgive me, but I don't think we're close enough for you to drop in anytime for a tour of my studio anytime you
want."
"Then what if I come as a client? You can't turn down a client, right?" retorted Avery with a smirk.
Vicky looked straight into Avery's eyes. "Miss Avery, why don't you just come right out and say why you came here?
I'm really busy, so I have no time for you to beat around the bush."
Avery was obviously in a good mood. Even Vicky, who did not see her very much, could tell she was on cloud nine.
Avery glanced at Vicky and slowly took off the silk scarf wrapped around her neck.
"I heard you've expanded your business into designing accessories for your clients as well. I'm sure it'll be nothing
for you to draw up a scarf design for me, right?"
Vicky saw the many hickeys dotted around Avery's neck as soon as the scarf was taken off. From the number and
color alone, she knew just how passionate the s*x Avery had last night.
Vicky's eyelashes quivered; she finally knew why Avery came to her studio. She looked up at Avery, who sported the
same smug smile she had when she came in.
Vicky scoffed inwardly. She did not want to waste her time with Avery at all.
"You and Mister Tyler have been engaged for four years, so it stands to reason that you've done everything a
couple
would do. Or, could it be..."
Vicky smiled mockingly. "Could it be that nothing happened in the four years you were together with him, so that's
why you couldn't wait to announce to the whole world that you two slept together after doing it last night?" i
Avery's expression froze, knowing Vicky was spot-on with her guess. Nonetheless, she quickly replastered her smug

"We told the media our engagement was called off because Tyler wanted to protect me. The truth is, we didn't call
off our engagement. And well never do that."
Avery rubbed her belly while looking smugly at Vicky. «
"The reason I came here today is to tell you I'm pregnant with Tyler's baby. So, it would be even more impossible
for him to call off the engagement." i
The word 'baby' made Vicky's heart ache. 3
"Okay. So?" she asked coldly.
"So stay away from him if you know what's good for you! I'm going to make you wish you were dead if you dare to
seduce him again after we're married!" Her eyes glinted maliciously. "Don't think these are just empty threats. I,
Avery Yeager, have always made good on my words!" 1
Avery finally showed her true colors.
Instead of being intimidated, Vicky merely smiled.
"Oh, I believe you, Miss Avery. After all, I have first-hand
experience of just what lengths you'd go to keep Mister Tyler. But..."
Vicky looked at Avery. "Just how long do you think you can keep a man by your side by manipulating him?"
