Chapter 173 Deliver the Food

Seeing her pale face, Madison quickly took her phone away.

"Mrs. Hill, why are you looking at these? Aren't you afraid of getting eye strain? If you want to look at

something, look at some handsome young men. I heard that the members of the recently debuted XO

Group twist their waists more seductively than women."

Originally, Avery was feeling a bit depressed, but Madison's words made her laugh. "Madison, do you

know about this?" ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

Madison put her hand on Avery's shoulder and advised, "Mrs. Hill, even the smartest person in the

world is not perfect. We all have to take some detours in life to understand what is right and wrong.

Don't punish yourself for other people's mistakes."

Avery was a bit surprised that Madison was taking her side.

"Mr. Hill can divorce you, and he can also divorce her. So, just wait a little longer. I'm sure..."

Avery interrupted her, not wanting to hear the rest. "Hmm, I know. Prepare some ingredients. I'll cook

tonight."

Madison's eyes lit up. It was rare for Avery to take the initiative to please Jacob.

In her eyes, the two of them were still the perfect couple, and Jacob was just being impulsive and

wouldn't be with Layla for long.

"Alright, I'll call Mr. Hill and tell him about it right away."

Avery turned off her phone and got up, her face already serious and cold.

She looked back at the past two years. The Adams family was gone, and her father was in a coma.

The reason she became like this was not solely because of Jacob but also because she was too

immersed in love and had forgotten about everything around her, giving others an opportunity.

Time was running out, and she couldn't waste any more time arguing with Jacob.

She would put away her hostility and put on a mask. Wasn't this also a form of growth?

The President's office.

Everyone was under great pressure and didn't even dare to breathe too loudly, afraid that Jacob would

exile them to the border if they weren't careful.

John stood by Jacob's side, holding a thick stack of documents. Jacob's knitted brows hadn't relaxed

since morning.

"Mr. Hill, the news of your engagement with Miss White has spread all over the Internet."

Jacob looked down at the documents in front of him without answering, but John knew that Jacob

wasn't really reading them.

He had been staring at the same page for five minutes, and the documents were even upside down.

"We just received a call from the Hill Mansion..."

Jacob's eyes flickered, and he coldly asked, "Does she want to go out?"

She had just had a big fight with him this morning, so she was probably causing another scene and

asking to leave.

"No, Mrs. Hill personally made dinner. Madison asked if you wanted to go back and eat."

Jacob's face, which was cold just a second ago, visibly softened. He snorted coldly and said, "Tell her

I'm busy."

After thinking it over, John advised him, "Mr. Hill, Mrs. Hill has been through a lot in these past two

years. She looks thinner than before. Just treat her better."

Jacob pointed to the red mark below his chin. "Do you think she's gentle?"

"She has realized her mistake and took the initiative to reconcile."

Jacob slammed the document in his hand onto the table. "Should I agree just because she wants to

reconcile? Does she really think I can't live without her? Even after she ran away, I didn't blame her.

What else does she want?"

Jacob's mind was filled with images of Avery and Frank holding hands on the island. He suppressed

the surging hatred in his eyes and let out a long breath.

He slammed the table hard. "Even if I jump off the Hill Group building, I won't go back and eat her meal

tonight."

John conveyed his opinion. Five minutes later, Jacob's private phone rang. John didn't know what

Avery said, but the coldness on Jacob's face visibly decreased.

"It's up to you." He hung up the phone, and a smile appeared on his lips.

Meeting John's inquisitive gaze, he cleared his throat and explained, "She insisted on bringing the food.

I didn't ask her to come."

John was speechless.
