Reclaiming the CEO's Heart

Chapter 111 Square Box

After listening to Isabella's words, Avery's face became even more excited. Her beautiful eyebrows and eyes also had a hint of ferocity as she sternly said.

"Of course Ethan is innocent. Then what about my dead child? Is he not innocent? Shouldn't Ethan be the one who died instead?"

Avery covered her painful heart and looked extreme. "If Ethan hadn't come to this world, my child wouldn't have died."

"You're crazy. How can you have such extreme thoughts? Avy, listen to me. Although I may seem carefree, I truly believe in fate. Everyone has a predetermined fate in this world. Your baby just returned to heaven early to become an angel. Perhaps he's watching over you when you look up, Avy. He wants you to live well and not do anything that will make you regret it for the rest of your life. Think about your pain. You're so kind, so you wouldn't want others to go through the same, right?"

Avery turned to look at her, her gaze piercing as she said word by word, "Do you know how I've spent this year? Why could Layla's family be so happy when my family was destroyed? Why could Jacob do whatever he wants?"

"I really want to make them taste the pain I've endured a thousand times over."

"Avy." Isabella looked at her with concern.

Suddenly, Avery laughed. "Don't look at me like that. I won't do anything until my father wakes up."

"Avy, I know that unless I have experienced hardships myself, I shouldn't advise others to be kind. I only hope that you can live peacefully. You must stay calm." "Don't worry. I'm calmer now than ever."

Isabella was extremely worried and didn't know what Avery was planning in her heart. She felt helpless.

When she left, she heard Avery humming a song. It was that lullaby.

She remembered when Avery was pregnant, not only did Avery buy a lot of toys for children, but Avery also downloaded many lullabies.

She said to Avery teasingly, "The child hasn't even been born yet, and you've already learned so many lullabies. Be careful not to hypnotize yourself."

Avery touched her belly, a gentle smile on her lips. "It'll be too late to learn after giving birth. By then, I'll definitely be in a last-minute panic. It's my first time being a mother, so I have no experience and have to prepare well. Actually, he can feel it. Every time I hum a song, the baby behaves well and doesn't kick me. When he's born, he'll definitely be a caring little boy who loves me."

"You're so beautiful, and it's good to inherit your or his father's good looks. I can't wait for the little guy to arrive."

Avery longed for it day and night, but he never came into this world.

She didn't know that on the other side of the ocean, in these few days when Jacob didn't bother her, Jacob had just experienced a catastrophe.

A man wearing a mask jumped off a high bridge, and bullets shot from behind him like rain into the water.

A splash of blood dyed the surface of the water red.

"He can't escape. Chase him."

Jacob emerged from the river, his whole body soaked. He quietly sneaked onto the shore while clutching his injured right hand.

In his hand, he tightly held a square box. There was a hint of satisfaction on his face under the mask as he whispered, "Daniel, can you see it? I've retrieved it for you." Cold snow slowly fell from the sky, and Jacob carefully put away the box.

He repeatedly touched the box, which Daniel exchanged for life, and softly said, "Don't worry. I will take care of your wife and daughter for you."
