Chapter 135: Lies Avery stared at the bag of money for a moment, with brows drawn together.

A soft knock sounded on the door and Avery rushed forward. She opened the door and let Chloe inside.

“Thanks for coming,” she made sure that the door was locked so that no one would be able to enter.

Chloe regarded her for a moment. “What’s wrong? Did something happen?”

Avery sighed and moved to sit. “I told you about Thomas? Thomas wanted to date me but I disagreed. Then, he pulled back. He used to be one of our wealthy investors,” she explained.

Chloe gathered her brows.” And why did you reject him? I mean, isn’t he better than Grey? At least, he’s rich. Grey has nothing. I wouldn’t leave someone like Thomas for Grey,” she declared.

Avery thought for a moment.” That’s because you don’t know who Thomas really is. He’s the most selfish man I have ever known. I can’t fall for someone like him. There’s absolutely no way things would work well for us both,” she revealed.

Chloe hissed. “Grey has a bad attitude but you guys are still together. Are you sure you haven’t fallen in love with him?”

Avery’s eyes went wide with shock.” Why will you even say something like that? I’m not in love with Grey! How can I be!” She yelled in anger.

Chloe watched her for a moment.” It’s just an accusation, you shouldn’t be raising your voice so high!” She complained. She sounded enraged as well.

Avery let out an exasperated sigh. “That just came as a shock. There’s no way I would fall for Grey,” she bawled and tried to breathe properly.
