Charles didn’t stop him. He invited Chad upstairs.
Standing in front of Avery’s room, Chad raised his hand and knocked.
Soon, Avery’s steady voice came through. “Don’t bother me.”
Chad sighed. “Avery, it’s me.”
Inside, Avery recognized the voice, paused for a moment, then pursed his lips and rose to open the door. “Mr. Gordon, why are you here?”
Chad looked at Avery’s slightly pale face. “I came to see you. May I come in?”
Avery turned to the side. “Please come in.”
The curtains in the room were still drawn, allowing only a faint glimmer of the brilliant afternoon sun to seep in. It cast a somber atmosphere throughout the room.
“I heard you haven’t eaten since breakfast. You’ve just recovered a bit and you’re not taking good care of yourself again?” Chad pulled back the curtains and sat down next to the couch, speaking in a gentle voice.
Avery’s eyelashes were half-lowered as he sat across from Chad. His energy seemed fine, but his mood was noticeably low. “I’m sorry for causing you concern, but I really don’t have an appetite today. I just can’t eat.”
Chad stared at him. Not beating around the bush, he went straight to the point. “It’s because of Neera, isn’t it?”This is the property of Nô-velDrama.Org.
What he said was a statement, not a question.
Avery pursed his lips, his expression showing a slight relaxation.
Just hearing the word “Neera” brought on an indescribable tearing pain, making him feel so distressed that he could almost suffocate.
He never imagined that one day, Neera would have such a profound impact on him.
He never imagined that one day, he would be heartbroken because of unrequited love.
The moment he saw those rumors swirling online, he felt as if his blood had turned to ice and even his heart had frozen solid.
In the end, she chose to be with Jean, becoming the wife of another man.
Before, Avery had innocently believed that he could take advantage of their quarrel, showing Neera his good side, and win her heart in one fell swoop.
However, at that moment, he realized he was too arrogant.
Emotions were such that no matter how much effort you put in, it didn’t necessarily mean you’d get a return.
He found himself pondering about various possibilities. If only he had met Neera earlier; if only he had fallen in love with her sooner; if only…
It was impossible to tell, but he still wondered if things would have ended differently.

Seeing Avery silent with a gloomy expression, Chad sighed inwardly. “Avery, Neera and Jean have truly become husband and wife. She has made her choice, so you shouldn’t confine yourself to this matter. Let go when you should. This outcome isn’t beyond your expectations, is it? You’ve spent a considerable amount of time with Neera, so you should understand her character. She values emotions highly. Once she sets her heart on someone, she won’t waver. Her unwavering and pure approach to love, you know this.”
Avery took a deep breath, finally speaking up. His voice was low and slightly hoarse. “I know what drew me to her was her singular and persistent affection, as well as her resilience, all of which I admired. I’ve never seen any woman like her, nor have I ever paid attention to anyone the way I did to her. Yet, in the end, I couldn’t make her mine.”
Chad moved a bit closer and patted Avery’s shoulder. “Avery, I know you’re serious about Neera, and she also seriously considers you a friend. She appreciates all the care and help you’ve given her, and she keeps it in her heart. However, when it comes to feelings, they’re beyond our control. Perhaps there’s just no destiny between you two, so don’t take it too hard.”
After a moment of silence, Avery let out a soft sigh. “Mr. Gordon, I understand what you mean. Rest assured, I have my own judgment. As long as Neera is happy, I will bless her. As for the arranged marriage between the Cox and Gordon families, let’s call it off. The relationship between the Cox and Gordon families will not change due to a failed marriage arrangement.”
Naturally, Chad knew that Avery wouldn’t turn against the Gordon family over such a matter. However, hearing the latter say that still gave him some reassurance.
He changed the subject, asking, “All right, let’s put this matter to rest. How are things with the Cox family now?”
“Everything is currently within manageable limits.”
“If you need help, feel free to ask anytime. No need to hold back.”
“All right, I will.”
After spending the day having fun, Neera finally found some time to check online comments when she returned to the hotel.
She had no idea until she saw it with her own eyes, and it gave her quite a shock. She hadn’t expected that the news of her marriage certificate had already caused such a stir on the internet. All sorts of comments about it were emerging endlessly.
“How did the head of the Gordon family end up getting a marriage certificate with a stranger? What about the Cox family? Aren’t they going to form an alliance through marriage anymore?”
“Wasn’t there a rumor before that the heads of the Cox and Gordon families were about to get engaged? How come, in the blink of an eye, the marriage partner has changed? Could something have happened between the Cox and Gordon families?”
“Going off-topic here, but the husband of the Gordon family’s head is so handsome! He’s dashing and stylish, with an incredibly strong aura. His demeanor is top-notch. I’m green with envy. Why don’t I have such high-quality men around me?”
“Isn’t what the head of the Gordon family did a bit underhanded? The head of the Cox family, for her sake, was always at her beck and call, providing all sorts of support, all just to win a smile from the beauty. Now that she has -found her footing, she turned around to get a marriage certificate with someone else. Where does that leave the
head of the Cox family?”
“Exactly. Could she be using the Cox family? Now that she sees the Cox family in trouble, she just kicks them

“Listen everyone. This is her personal love life. Whom she chooses to love is her choice, and it’s her freedom to decide who she wants to marry. Is there really a need for all of you to poke your nose into her business?”
After a quick scan of the comments, Neera suddenly felt the situation becoming somewhat tricky.
“What are you looking at?” Jean entered the room holding a steaming cup of milk and casually surveyed the scene. His eyebrows lifted slightly as he inquired, “What’s the topic of conversation online?”
Neera, feeling troubled, set her phone aside before offering a response.
