Chapter 57 Excuses for His Affair
Nicholas's words were a unilateral declaration of war against Jacob, which made Avery extremely nervous. She knew Jacob's possessiveness.
Although they were divorced, as he had said before, he would never want to see Avery live a happy life.
Nicholas mentioned it to her on such an occasion. If she rejected him, wouldn't it embarrass him a lot? They were from the same circle, and he would inevitably become the laughingstock of others.
Avery felt trapped as if she had been pushed onto a rack and repeatedly roasted.
Isabella knew Avery's situation and helped her out with a smile. "Of course, you can. The best way to forget an ex is either time or a new lover. Nic, you are handsome, and you two can have more contact. Avy has been hurt badly by a scumbag, and I hope someone can heal her broken heart soon."
These words clearly tied Avery and Nicholas together. Avery hurriedly interrupted her, "Bella."
Isabella didn't take Avery's warning to heart at all, her mind was filled with thoughts of revenge against Jacob.
"Why are you shy? You're already divorced. Do you plan to live alone for the rest of your life? I'm sure Nic won't be like that scumbag. Nic, do you have any free time recently? I plan to accompany Avy to visit the Northernmost River. It's not safe for two girls to travel alone..."
"I would be honored to escort you. It's my pleasure." Nicholas's eyes couldn't be gentler as he looked at Avery.
Isabella deliberately glanced at Jacob's livid face and felt much better.
Jacob didn't say a word from beginning to end, but the constant cold aura emanating from him reminded everyone of his presence.
Andrew stepped forward to change the topic. "I'm really happy to see Avery find happiness again. As your old classmate, I'm genuinely happy for you. But today, it's rare to see Mr. Hill, and I feel truly honored. So, to Mr. Hill and Miss White. I wish you happiness forever."
