Chapter 25: Walk the Talk!
Ella was at a loss for words. How did she suddenly become the third wheel in a relationship?
When she agreed to Eric’s request, she had no idea he already had a fiancée who had yet to appear!
"Great! Just great! Avery, you’ve really stepped up your game. Now you’re even threatening me with your father? But you’re wrong. Even if you brought in dozens of fathers, I still wouldn’t marry you!"
"You... Eric, don’t do this to me. I really love you..." Avery’s face turned pale with fear, completely at a loss for what to do.
"I would never be interested in someone as foolish as you!"
Eric looked coldly at the crying Avery, and Ella was speechless for a moment.
This Eric, what a sharp tongue he has!
"You... Eric, you’re treating me like this because of that shameless woman, aren’t you? You, thinking you can become the young mistress of the Nelson family just by dating Eric? Dream on! He is mine, always has been, and I won’t let you succeed!"
"Get out!" Before Avery could finish, Eric suddenly shouted, and the guards outside quickly ran in.
Avery’s face was ashen. She and Eric had known each other since childhood, and it was the first time she’d seen him so furious.
"Eric, you’ll regret this!" Avery ran off crying.
