Chapter 562

The words “we” formed an impassable chasm between Avery and Evadne and Thaddeus, a gap that seemed as vast as the Grand Canyon itself, one he knew he could never bridge.

Yet, even so, Avery’s gaze towards Evadne was still filled with longing and affection.

His obsessive love had turned him into a shameless madman.

“Evadne, you’ve got me all wrong. But since you doubt me, I’m willing to cooperate fully.”

With that, Avery bent down to gently take his mother’s hand in his and caress it softly, “Mom, I’m sorry, looks like I can’t take that road trip with you after all.”

“It’s okay, honey, I’m alright.”

Mrs. Chambers‘ worried eyes turned towards Evadne, her voice urgent and tearful, “Evadne, please don’t be mad at Ave! If he’s upset you, I apologize on his behalf!”

Evadne felt a tightness in her chest, “Mrs. Chambers, please don’t say that.”

Though Avery was unrepentant and cunning, Mrs. Chambers was a pitiable woman, and moreover, she was gravely ill. Evadne did not wish to have a heated confrontation with Avery in her presence.

After all, this woman who had been abandoned by her husband and exiled for fifteen long years, had only her son Avery as her beacon of hope.

She didn’t want to extinguish the flame that kept Mrs. Chambers clinging to life right in front of her.

“When you were kids, you were the best of friends. You used to come over to play with Ave all the time, and he was so fond of you.”

“Mom, please stop,” Avery interjected gently, his eyes filled with helplessness.

Thaddeus watched the tender scene between mother and son, his eyes drooping heavily as a sharp pang of jealousy gripped his heart.
