I Hope You Will Never Regret

Chapter 171: Charity Case



After work, Siyabonga went to Avery’s apartment to see her. He was overwhelmed with anger and resentment towards Jordan. Why did he choose to dump Avery on her birthday? Jordan was inhuman.

His boss opened the door for him. Siyabonga greeted Mr Martins with respect and asked, “How is she?” Mr Martins told him that she was shutting herself in her room.

Siyabonga looked at his boss and said, “I will never forgive Jordan for the pain he put my sister through. Since he has been dating Tiffany for three months, why did he choose my sister’s birthday to break up with her?”

Mr Martins replied, “I think my family is involved in this matter. I find out that Tiffany is my niece, Lily’s best friend. I think my wife and Lily used Tiffany to seduce Jordan. I wonder what they promised her because Bennet Group is bankrupt.”

Siyabonga was dumbfounded and said, “When Tiffany finds out that her beloved fiancé is poor, she will dump him. I don’t see Tiffany marrying a pauper. I want Jordan to feel the pain of being dumped by someone he loves.”

Then Siyabonga walked to Avery’s bedroom and knocked on the door. Avery asked him to enter. She was sitting on her bed with puffy red eyes. Siyabonga hugged her tightly and said, “I am so sorry, baby sister.”

Avery cried in his arms and replied sobbing, “I was so naïve, big brother. All the red flags were there, but I ignored them. My heart hurt so much. He broke up with me on our fifth anniversary.

Big brother, I was so excited when I received his text message inviting me to His Mercy restaurant. I thought he had planned a special birthday for me. I was over the moon that, for the first time, Jordan would celebrate my birthday with me.

Gabriella told me that she heard a rumour that Jordan was dating someone, but she didn’t tell me because she didn’t have evidence. I am glad that she didn’t tell me because maybe I would have accused her of trying to break us up.

Gabriella didn’t hide that she loathed Jordan. She asked me several times to break up with him. I prayed without ceasing for three months, asking the Lord to remove Jordan from my heart to no avail. So, I thought he was my soulmate.

Even though I knew that I was in a one-sided relationship, I decided to turn a blind eye. I hope Tiffany will love him more than I do because she stole his heart.”

Siyabonga hugged her tightly and said, “Jordan will pay for hurting you, my dearest sister. I don’t think Tiffany loves Jordan because she is your cousin’s best friend.”

Avery laughed out loud and replied, “Now it makes sense, Aunt Elizabeth and Lily used Tiffany to seduce Jordan. Tiffany told me that it was impossible for Jordan to love me because even my mother doesn’t love me.

I was puzzled because I had never told Jordan about my relationship with my mother. I nearly fainted when she told me that she was two months pregnant.

I thought Jordan would be the father of my children.” Then she cried sorrowfully in Siyabonga’s arms.

Siyabonga comforted her, “The Lord will bless you with someone who will treat you as treasure. You will laugh when you think about the tears you’ve wasted for Jordan. He doesn’t deserve you.”

The Shelton couple arrived in South Africa the following day. Clayton fetched them from the airport. They went straight to their God daughter’s apartment.

August was beaming with joy when he saw them. He hugged Brad tightly and kissed Mia on both cheeks.

August looked at them and said, “Jordan hurt my daughter deeply. Follow me to the study room to listen to the recording.”

They followed behind him. Mia had tears in her eyes when she heard Jordan tell Avery that he had never loved her, but he was pretending.

She wiped her tears and asked, “Why did Jordan choose to break up with my Goddaughter on her birthday?”

August looked at them and replied, “Tiffany is Lily’s best friend. Jordan and Tiffany started dating three months ago, but they waited until her birthday to break up with her.

I think Elizabeth and Lily were involved in this matter too. They wanted to break my daughter mentally. On the same day, I took everything I had given him. I want to see how he is going to finish the stadium project.”

Mia was dumbfounded. Elizabeth was vicious. What happened to sweet Lily? Her heart ached for her late best friend. She excused herself, and she went to Avery’s bedroom. She knocked on the door, and then Avery asked her to come in.

Avery’s eyes were red and puffy. She rushed to her Godmother and hugged her tightly crying. Her Godmother tried to be strong for her, but tears betrayed her. They hugged each other for a long time, crying.

Then her Godmother led her to the sofa and sat beside her and said, “I am so sorry, Sweetheart. Jordan was not a good man. I am happy that he is no longer in your life. I don’t doubt in my mind that the good Lord has a special man for you.”

Avery nodded her head and replied, “It hurts, Godmother. I will never forgive Jordan for playing with my feelings. Why did he break up with me in front of his girlfriend?”

Her Godmother’s heart ached and replied, “I heard that Tiffany is Lily’s best friend and I think they promised Tiffany something in return for seducing Jordan.”

Avery wiped her tears and said, “I hope Jordan will never regret it, Godmother. I have been taking care of the Bennet family for the past four years, but what did I get in return?”

Her Godmother hugged her tightly and replied, “Everything will be alright, my dearest. Your brothers sent their regards.”

Two days later, Avery was in her apartment nursing her pain. She received a call from Dr Lambert indicating that her mother was looking for her.

She was puzzled. Then she wore her beautiful dress and light make-up to hide her haggard face.

She took her handbag and opened the door. She was surprised to see her Godmother getting out of the car. Avery smiled brightly and said, “Good morning, Godmother. Are you doing well?”

Her Godmother smiled at her and replied, “Good morning, Sweetheart. Where are you going?” Avery told her that she received a call from Dr Lambert indicating that Aunt Elizabeth was looking for her.

Her Godmother was puzzled. She decided to accompany her. When they arrived at the hospital, they found Aunt Elizabeth, Lily, and Aiden waiting for Avery.

Lily scoffed and said, “I told you Avery that I would avenge myself. Where is Jordan now? I will snatch everything you loved one by one.”This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.

Avery smiled, but the smile didn’t reach her eyes and replied, “Jordan was nothing but a charity case. I made him. I hope your beloved friend will be able to maintain his lifestyle because he is nothing without the Martins’ wealth.

Aiden, I am disappointed in you for colluding with these irrelevant people. I thought you’d learned your lesson when Daddy put you in police custody. From today onwards, you are no longer my brother. We are strangers.”

Then she took her Godmother’s arm and left. Aunt Elizabeth and Lily looked at each other. They thought Avery would be falling apart after she was humiliated by Jordan and Tiffany. Aiden became stuffy in his chest, and he knew that he had lost his sister for good.
