Domineering Lover novel Chapter 921

At home, Serena pretended to be fine. She went to bed after washing up as usual.

Avery told from her glazed eyes that Serena might be suffering from a trauma. She was tired physically but lied awake on the bed.

"Serena, I'm sorry, I'm terribly sorry." Avery held Serena tightly, 'Why didn't I accompany her to the bar?'

He was busy when Serena informed him of her schedule, and the reputation of that high-end bar let him be off guard.

Knowing that Serena loved that band, Avery didn't feel like spoiling the fun, but what came next did go beyond his imagination.

Proud and well protected as Serena, she must be totally freaked out.

Serena clutched Avery's clothes tightly, "Avery, don't leave me."

Such vulnerable Serena grieved Avery, 'No matter how tough, intelligent, and independent Serena is, she is 16 years only!'

"No, I will be here with you forever. Serena, tell me what happened tonight!" Avery felt that it was a trap.

She went to the business dinner as a representative of Eastern Group, so what she had suffered seemed unreasonable.

"Avery, I'm tired. Could you please stay here with me?" Serena did not want to talk.

"Alright, I am here, and good night! It'll be fine. I promise this won't happen again. There, there. " Avery patted her back and tried to put Serena down with a gentle voice as if she was a child.

Serena fell asleep soon. Then, Avery got up after pulling the quilt for Serena.

Avery called his secretary to learn what both Serena and Amy did today.

'Why did Serena propose such a bet to Amy? Why did she call me to make Amy stay in the company?'

'Amy was in charge of this acquisition project. Is she part of the reasons for what Serena went through today?'

The secretary told Avery all he knew without reservation. Those rumors infuriated Avery immediately.

"Why didn't you tell me the slander earlier?"

"Well, you are busy, and those gossips about you and Amy have circulated in the company for a long time. Those gossips are good for nothing, so it didn't occur to me that I should bother you with that trifle."

"Bastard, how do you know what I will think when you tell nothing to me at all? What else did Amy do?"

"She went to the sanatorium today. I don't know why she did so since the vice president already took over the project. That's all I know."

"Do some investigation on Amy tomorrow." Something occurred to Avery.

Amy and Avery were classmates, and Nisse was two years older than them. Back then, Nisse took a shine on Amy, and that was how their acquaintance began.

"If that is your wish, President."

Hanging up the phone, Avery looked at the myriad twinkling lights of the city from the balcony, thinking that Nisse should be behind the trick, though Amy was questionable.

With a cigarette in his hand, Avery still felt heartaches at the memory of Serena's panic-stricken face.

'If Kieran arrived later...' Avery didn't dare to imagine the consequences. There was a cold aura circulating around Avery, who frowned.

He felt upset that he was still not strong enough to protect Serena.

He struggled with frustration.

Finally, he dialed a number.
