At the command of Ethan Blackwood, Chad quickly stepped on the brake. The wheels drew a few meters on the ground, making a piercing sound. The man's face was dark, exuding an indescribable anger. "Get out!" Chad had been following Ethan for so many years that he knew exactly what to do when Ethan frowned. After the car stopped, Chad got out of the car and opened the door next to Avery Wells, who was sitting in the back seat. "Miss Avery, please get out of the car." As expected. From the moment Ethan asked Lucas to stop the car, Avery knew what the result would be. She even thought about the consequences of being strangled to death by this man, so why would she be afraid of this? "Just get out of the car! Who's afraid of who?" Avery didn't know where she got the courage from. Not only did she retort with an equally bad attitude, but when she got out of the car, she also slammed the door shut. With a loud "bang", the sound was extremely piercing. After getting out of the car, Avery even kicked the door with one foot. Worried that Ethan would get out of the car and catch her, she turned around and quickly ran away after kicking the door, turning a corner and running a long way. She didn't feel relieved until she saw that no one was chasing her. But within two minutes, Avery regretted it. She had already cut off contact with her family, and what happened at home today meant that she could never go back there again. Without a home, and now she had a falling out with Ethan. Would she have to sleep on the streets tonight? Unknowingly, she arrived at the station platform. Avery looked at the map for a long time and realized that she had nowhere else to go except for the school. As for the school, Avery was constantly worried. A week ago, her parents withdrew her from school because she refused to be with Ethan. They said that they would only pay the remaining tuition fees for her third year if she agreed to be with Ethan, have a test-tube baby for him, and give birth to an heir for the Blackwood family. With all financial support cut off, Avery had no choice but to agree to this in order to pursue her dream of becoming a famous jewelry designer in the future. Now, things were getting worse and worse. She couldn't go back to her family or to Ethan's place for the time being, and she didn't even know if her tuition fees had been paid. Although Avery had already guessed the final outcome, she still gritted her teeth and boarded the bus to the college. ... After Avery left, Chad felt that the atmosphere inside and outside the car was obviously not right. Following Ethan for so many years, except for some ignorant people in the Blackwood family, he had never seen anyone as reckless as Avery, who dared to speak to Ethan like that. Looking at Ethan's dark face, Lucas hesitated for a few seconds, but still took the risk of asking carefully. "Young Master, do you want to go and bring her back?" The woman who dared to throw a tantrum in front of Ethan and even cursed and kicked his car door was definitely the most daring one. Looking at Ethan's gloomy face now, based on his past behavior, he would definitely make Avery regret her actions. By the way, Ethan likes to raise snakes, especially those with strong fighting spirit and highly toxic. They are his precious treasures. Because those snakes, like Ethan, are mysterious and full of poison. Anyone who dares to provoke Ethan will end up being thrown into the snake pit. Lucas was already thinking about Avery's fate, and if she was caught and brought back, Ethan would definitely make her stay in the snake pit for three days and three nights. Thinking of this, Chad couldn't help but feel a chill down his spine and instinctively shrunk his body. However, to Lucas's surprise, Ethan did not order Avery to be brought back. "No need, she will come back on her own tonight. Go to the company by car!" "Yes, Ethan," Chad replied in a lukewarm tone, his face expressionless. Chad wiped the sweat off his forehead once again. The sky was not yet dark, and the sunset hung on the horizon, casting a hopeful light over the bustling and prosperous city. As neon lights flickered on one by one, the city was shrouded in a mysterious veil. They say that New York City is the city that never sleeps, and its economic development and urban construction are second to none in the country. Chad couldn't help but sigh as he drove. If New York City is the hub of America, then the influence of the Blackwood family in Manhattan is no less than that of the city's elite.
Chad owed his position to his own diligence and hard work, as well as Ethan's promotion. As for Ethan... Several heiresses had been selected by Ethan before, but they were all scared away by the burn scars on his face. This time, Avery was probably going to be scared away as well, and Ethan might even crush her himself.
Around seven o'clock, the car drove back into Ethan's penthouse apartment in downtown Manhattan. As soon as they got out of the car, Ethan asked Qin, "Has Avery come back?"
Qin, who was unaware of what had happened in the afternoon, replied, "No, sir. Wasn't she supposed to be with you?"
Ethan's face turned even darker, and he instructed Qin, "If she comes back, don't let her in. Tell her to leave."
Qin nodded, "Yes, sir."
Ethan then turned to Chad and said, "You're dismissed. Go rest."
Chad bowed and replied, "Yes, Young Master, Goodnight, sir."
As Chad left, he couldn't help but wonder what would happen to Avery tonight. Would she really come back, and if so, what would Ethan do to her? The thought sent a shiver down Lucas's spine.
