I Hope You Will Never Regret

Chapter 175 A Debt of Gratitude



Xavier smiled at her, and then he looked at her eyes. She had the most beautiful eyes he had ever seen. They had a rare shade of green with hazel brown near the pupil.

Xavier couldn’t control himself. He kissed her beautiful eyes and said, “You have the most beautiful eyes I have ever seen, my stunning wife. You are so gorgeous. Don’t you want me to sign you up as a model for my entertainment company?”

Avery smiled sweetly at him and replied, “President Taylor, don’t you want to hide me? I am so beautiful I don’t want to attract admirers.” Avery fanned her face with her hand.

Xavier laughed out loud, his wife had a sense of humor, “You are really beautiful my wife.” Avery smiled brightly, sweetness filled her heart and said, “You are more handsome than the first time I saw you, my husband.”

Xavier looked at her with questioning eyes. He was sure that he had never met her before. No one could ignore that stunning face.

Avery smiled sweetly at him. Her adorable dimples lit up her face when she smiled and said, “I was one of the guests at your wedding. When I first saw you, I thought I was having a heart attack. My heart was beating so fast.

My father was so scared; he wanted to take me to the hospital. I still have your photo on my phone.” She took her phone and showed him. Xavier was smiling brightly in the photo.

Avery didn’t see the pain in Xavier’s eyes because she was busy preparing Butterfly Pea Flower tea for him. Xavier was reminded of his late wife’s betrayal, but he calmed himself down quickly.

He smiled brightly and replied, “Oh, I remember now, when I saw you I had the same feeling as you. I was so disappointed when I didn’t see you.”

Avery made him a cup of tea with blueberry muffins. He thanked her, then he took a sip and said, “I have never seen blue tea before, what is it called?”

Avery smiled and replied, “It’s Butterfly Pea Flower tea.” Xavier drank the blue tea and left the muffins untouched because he didn’t have a sweet tooth.

An hour later, the food was served. The food was delicious. Avery looked at him; Xavier was eating with grace and nobility.

Xavier smiled and said, “My stunning wife, I think you are in the wrong profession. Your culinary skills are so good. Why did you choose to be a Neurosurgeon?”

Avery smiled and replied, “It gives me purpose that I am not here on earth by mistake. When my mother found out that she was pregnant with me, she wanted to abort me, but my father threatened her with a divorce.

My mother used to beat me on the head when I was growing up. One day, I saw my mother crying when I was coming back from school.

I just wanted to comfort her because her brother and her sister-in-law passed away. She pushed me so hard. I bumped my head on the coffee table, and I started bleeding.

My family butler took me to the hospital. Dr Lambert advised me to be careful with my head because it could lead to brain injury. Hence, I decided to become a Neurosurgeon. I wanted to know more about the brain.

I love cooking for people I love. So, I decided to do hospitality as one of my subjects.

Avery took a sip of her tea and said, “President Taylor, your call saved my life and I owe you a debt of gratitude. I was in a relationship with Jordan Bennet for five years. He promised me that he would propose to me on my birthday.

On that day, I received a text message from him indicating that he wanted to see me at His Mercy restaurant. Since it was the first time for him to spend time with me on my birthday, I was over the moon.

When I arrived in the private room, he was kissing his girlfriend. I felt used and humiliated.

He told me that he had never loved me. I think he was embarrassed to go out with me. To think of it, he has never asked me out for dinner. The first time he asked me out was to break up with me. Let alone introducing me to his friends and family.

So, yesterday, Jordan hand-delivered his wedding invitation card to me. He is getting married in two months. I cried until there were no tears left. I decided to end my life. I was about to swallow the pills when you called me.

I was so naïve. I asked my father to give him the capital to establish his company. My father lent him his skilled construction employees to help him. Also, I wrote proposals for him. Even the proposal on your desk was written by me.

After he dumped me, my father took back his employees and the Construction Machinery he had lent him.

He withdrew the funds that he owed the Martins Group. I realized that he had never loved me, I was just a stepping stone to him.”

Her eyes were red, brimming with tears, but she held them back. Xavier took her in his arms and comforted her, “Don’t cry for an irrelevant person. He will pay for every pain he put you through.”

Xavier was furious at Jordan Bennet for using his wife as a stepping stone. How could Jordan give up on his stunning and capable girlfriend?

How could Jordan hand-deliver the wedding invitation card to the person he dumped two weeks ago? He was inhuman; he would teach him a lesson.

When Xavier saw the detailed and comprehensive proposal from the Bennet Group, he became interested because it was well-written.

He couldn’t believe that it was written by his wife. His wife was powerful indeed. He looked at her and asked, “Who taught you to write the proposals?”

Avery smiled with tears in her eyes and replied, “My father has been taking me to the company since I was five years old to attend the meetings and to listen to the managers when they give feedback.

When I was ten years old, he taught me how to write a proposal. It’s my responsibility to approve or decline the proposals for cooperation in my father’s company.”

Xavier was shocked to hear that and asked, “Did your mother allow you to follow your father at a young age?”Content held by NôvelDrama.Org.

Avery looked at him with sadness in her eyes and replied, “I don’t have any relationship with my mother. She replaced me with her brother’s daughter.”

She took a sip of the water and said, “My uncle and his wife passed away when my cousin and I were fourteen years old. My mother took her as her daughter. I remember when I was fifteen, I asked my father to conduct a DNA test for me and my mother.

I was so disappointed when the DNA results showed that she was my biological mother because I thought I was adopted.

From that day onwards, I treated my nanny as my mother. Also, I changed the way I addressed my mother to Aunt Elizabeth.

She tried to kill me when I was fourteen years old, and she chased me out of my home when I went to university. I felt I was not safe at home anymore, and I have never gone back again.

On my fifteenth birthday, my father gifted me this apartment. I visited my father at work when I missed him.”

Xavier hugged her tightly. His heart ached for her and said, “You’ve got me now. When was your birthday?” Avery smiled sweetly at him and replied, “It was on the 10th of January.”

Xavier nodded his head, then he cleaned the table and washed the dishes. Avery registered Xavier’s fingerprints on the door, then they went to the hospital to see baby Sage.
