Angela was still staying in his house. If she refused to help him, could he simply call his bodyguards over to kill her, as he did with his previous girlfriends? He could not. Angela could not die now because she had not won the Marshall's Award.
"I will call Avery now. Don't worry." She turned around and walked to the other side of the bed to grab her phone.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtDean hurried over to sit beside Angela to watch her make the call to Avery.
Pressured into obeying, she called Avery and Avery answered right away.
"Avery, I have Elliot now. If you don't want him to get hurt, you are going to stop going against Dean!" Worried that Dean would not be assured, she made a point by putting her phone on speaker.
"Aren't you in hiding now? I thought you would be too focused on winning to be bothered by anything else," Avery teased. "I heard that it's your biggest dream to win the Marshall's Award. You are only engaged to Dean Jennings because you are using him! Once you get the award, you are definitely not going to marry him. You saw the video today as well. You couldn't possibly be interested in a murderous old man like that." Angela's hand on the phone trembled because every word Avery had said was true, but she could not afford to cross Dean at the moment because she knew that Dean would kill her if she took the risk.
Not daring to look Dean in the eyes, Angela roared," Avery Tate! I am marrying Dean because I love him! Whether or not I win the Marshall's Award, I am still going to marry him! Keep running your mouth and see if you see Elliot ever again?!" "Love? Why? Because he is ruthless, murderous, of because he is disabled? Angela Hills, you might beable to foot Dean Jennings by sweet-talking him, but why bother lying to me? Try laying a finger on Elliot and I will make sure that you won't live long enough to leave Marshall's building even if you win the award! II Provoked by Avery's words, Dean immediately started coughing and Angela hurriedly hung up. Avery did not expect to hear Dean's voice.
Though she had only heard him coughing, her blood boiled the moment she recognized his voice.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIt was late at night, >h+;VJV= Angela was with Dean, which meant that she was staying at Dean's house. Avery hurried out of bed and went to knock on Mike's door to inform him about it.
In the Jennings' mansion, Dean coughed blood from a horrible bout of coughing.
Angela knew that Dean was merely too angry, and his health was not actually threatened.
"Dean, do you want to go to the hospital?" Angela leaned toward Dean. "Avery only said those things to mess with me. She doesn't know you, but I do. I really do want to marry you and spend the rest of our lives together." Dean studied Angela's face as he tried to determine if she was telling the truth. "Let's just get married after you win the award, then!" he decided. "That way, I will believe that you are marryingbecause you love me, instead of trying to use me."
