I Hope You Will Never Regret

In the blink of an eye, the year was up, and the Martins Group called back its Construction workers. CEO Martins gave them a month’s vacation leave to recharge their batteries.

Since the Bennet Group Construction workers were not aware that their colleagues belonged to the Martins Group, President Bennet decided to give them a month’s vacation leave as well.

Jordan went to the university to look for Avery. She was doing her third and fourth years. He asked the security guard to call Avery for him.

Avery last saw Jordan when she gave him the mansion and the Penthouse set of keys. He had ignored her text messages and her calls.

The security guard came back and said, “Miss Martins doesn’t want to see you, Sir. She indicated that she didn’t know you.”

Jordan walked to his car dejectedly. He bumped into Gabriella. She was going to see Avery. Jordan smiled at her and said, “Hi Gabriella, are you well?” Gabriella looked at Jordan and asked coldly, “What do you want, Mr Bennet?”

Jordan smiled and replied, “I want to see Avery. Please call her for me.” Gabriella smiled, but the smile didn’t reach her eyes and said, “Mr Bennet, one day you will regret treating Avery like your spare tire.

She has been nothing but good to you. You don’t deserve my friend.” Then she left Jordan standing. He walked to his car and drove to the company. Without the Martins Group Construction workers, the Airport would never be completed.

For the whole week, Jordan went to university and waited. One day, he saw Avery walking with Gabriella. He rushed to them and said, “Avery, may I have a word?”

Avery stopped and asked coldly, “What do you want, Jordan?” He smiled at her and replied, “May I take you to lunch?” Avery shook her head and replied, “I am not hungry.”

Jordan smiled and asked, “Do you mind accompanying me? I haven’t eaten anything today. Please, Avery.” Avery looked at Jordan and replied, “Fetch me tomorrow. Today I am busy.” Jordan thanked her, and then he left.

At the Martins residence, Lily was telling Aunt Elizabeth about Avery’s handsome boyfriend. She smiled and said, “Aunt Elizabeth, I heard that Avery asked Uncle August to set up the company for her boyfriend.”

Aunt Elizabeth was fuming with anger and said, “August took our money and funded Avery’s boyfriend. We have to separate them, Lily.”This is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

Lily smiled and replied, “He is so handsome, Aunt Elizabeth. Do you want me to seduce him?” Aunt Elizabeth shook her head and replied, “Let’s find someone else to seduce him.

Your uncle will kick us out of this house should he find out that you are dating Avery’s boyfriend.” Lily smiled brightly and replied, “I overheard Avery telling Gabriella that she wants to get married when she turns nineteen.

Let’s wait until she reaches eighteen, then we avenge ourselves. I want to take everything she loves. I have someone in mind. I will speak to her when we turn eighteen.”

Aunt Elizabeth smiled and said, “Do I know that girl? She must be pretty and coming from a good family.” Lily smiled and replied, “I think Tiffany Spencer meets the requirements. Even though she is not pretty as Avery, she comes from a wealthy family.”

Aunt Elizabeth smiled and replied, “In the time being, you must paint Avery as a bad person. So that when you ask her to seduce Avery’s boyfriend it will be easy.”

Lily smiled brightly and said, “Leave this matter to me, Aunt Elizabeth. Handsome Jordan will never marry Avery. I will make sure of that. I want to see Uncle August’s face when he heard that his precious daughter has been dumped.”

The following day, Jordan went to the university to fetch Avery. She walked to the back seat door and opened it. Jordan took her to the nearest Café. Avery ordered the chocolate cake and a vanilla milkshake. Jordan ordered a soda.

He looked at Avery and said, “I am sorry for ignoring you, Baby. I was busy with company affairs.” Avery looked at him and asked, “What do you want, Jordan?”

Jordan looked at Avery with eyes full of love and replied, “Baby, please ask your father to lend me the Martins Group employees and the Construction machinery until they complete the airport.”

Avery sneered, “Was it not the agreement you made with Uncle Eric? What stopped you from purchasing the Construction Machinery? The company which won the tender was given ten billion rand.

Why didn’t you hire enough employees for your company? What have you done with the company funds? Do you know that the Martins Group won the tender because of their excellent work?

My father trusted you that you would be able to complete the task. You have put the Martin Group into disrepute. I am so disappointed in you, Jordan. This is the last time I have helped you.”

Jordan was over the moon when he heard that Avery would help him. Since the tender was won by the Martins Group, their reputation would be affected as well. So, he decided not to hire any employees. He would use the Martins Group workers.

Jordan smiled and said, “Thank you so much, Baby. I will surely hire enough workers as soon as the Martins Group workers are back from leave. For the past weeks, I haven’t slept a wink. I even lost my appetite. I don’t know how to thank you, my love.”

Avery smiled and replied, “I told you before that you would thank me by marrying me when I turned nineteen. That is my only request.” Jordan smiled and replied, “I will surely marry you, my love.” In his heart, he vowed that he would never marry Avery.

Avery smiled and said, “It’s a pity that the Lord has hidden the human heart. I wish I could see your heart so that I would not waste my time on you should you not have any desire to marry me in the future.

I am deeply in love with you, Jordan. My heart’s desire is to be your wife and the mother of your children. I hope you will never break my heart, Jordan.”

Jordan was choked by his saliva when he heard Avery’s words because he didn’t have any intention of marrying her in the future. She was just a stepping stone for him.

He forced a smile and replied, “Baby, I will fulfill my promise. I will marry only you in my lifetime. I am glad that you are mine.” Jordan was tired of pretending; he didn’t want to spend a second with Avery.

Avery asked him to drop her at the Martins Group. Her father was over the moon when he saw his daughter. He kissed her on both cheeks and said, “I hope you are not here to plead for your useless boyfriend. I am disappointed in him.”

Avery looked at her father and replied, “I am disappointed in him too, Daddy. However, the tender was won by the Martins Group. I think Jordan did this on purpose because the Martins Group’s reputation will be at stake as well.

Daddy, please lend him the workers and the construction machinery until they complete the airport. He promised me that he would marry me when I turned nineteen. However, something tells me that it didn’t come from his heart. Time will tell.”

Mr Martins was so sad in his heart. Jordan was not a good man for his daughter. He was unreliable and arrogant.
