Dean was stunned.
"Miss Tate, I had not heard about any of this. If you had never brought it up, I would have never known about it." "Hmm, it's all small matters." "I don't think this is considered a small matter, right? Why did she hit you?" Dean sounded as if the slap had wronged him. The incident happened many years ago. When Avery thought back about it, she did not feel anything.

I wanted to persuade her to leave, but in the end, she calleda b*tch and slapped me. I'm not sure if she still remembersor not, but because of this, I still clearly remember her.
When Dean mentioned Angela's name, she immediately thought of that woman.
"My son was like you. He has studied under Professor Hough before. Why doesn't he know about this?" Dean was confused." When I brought Angela to see my children, they were all meeting her for the first time." "Your son's focus back then was never on the lab. I have only seen him a few times," Avery's answer stabbed into Dean's heart deeply.
"I have long known Angela, actually, but we were only acquaintances. Angela has never mentioned you before. I think she was just taking her anger on Professor Hough out on you." Dean was trying to explain Angela's potential motivations to Avery. " But I think what she did was still wrong. I apologize on her behalf." "No need. I never cared about this.
Professor Hough has said that other than her temper, she was great in everything else. I believe that Professor Hough does not judge a person wrongly." "Yes. It's not that she has a bad temper. She just has a weird temper. You have to accommodate and give in to her," said Dean, continuing to defend his girlfriend." We plan to have a simple wedding. I wonder whether you would do the honor to attend." "Sure!" Avery immediately agreed to it.
After the cup of coffee, Avery followed Dean back to the Jennings. To make it convenient for them to chat, Dean got Avery to get in his car.

Angela takes this wedding very seriously. She wants to do everything herself, so she isn't free," Dean explained. "Hmm. Mr. Jennings, I hear that you're still going to work regularly. I salute you for having such a healthy body." "Haha! Those are just rumors. I'm of old. I only work for two to three hours a day. The main business the company has been h< d(?ULU ed over to my children and professionals," Dean said honestly. "Miss Tate, what is going on with your ex-husband right now?" Avery never thought that Dean would ask this.
"I received an anonymous mail last night.
There were two photos inside that said my ex-husband is dead." "Oh, what a pity! Elliot is truly a trading genius. God took him away too early!" Dean sighed pitifully. "But I heard that your marriage with him previously was very unhappy." "Hmm, Mr. Jennings, I heard that you had a lot of marriages. When you ended things with your previous wives, was it a peaceful breakup?" Dean shook his head. "Most of it was peaceful because most women marriedfor my money. As long as I give them enough money, they would naturally have no complaints. Swomen are more ove challenging... I have a huge flaw. I like the new and get bored of the old quickly. Sometimes, even if I know the woman was not after my money, once I stop loving her, I can't continue living with her." Avery did not say anything. They were completely different people. She was afraid that she might offend him with her words. Before finding any clues about Elliot, she had to hold back.
"You two have a few kids, right? Now that your ex-husband is gone, you have to raise the children," Dean continued on the previous topic when he saw that Avery was not saying anything.
