Chapter 1083 Let Go Of That Man

Only after the person left for the study did Neera finally breathe a sigh of relief.

Later on, after Chad and Avery finished discussing matters about Phison, Chad invited Avery to stay for a meal.

The atmosphere at dinner was somewhat delicate.

Every time Avery looked her way, Neera would feel uncomfortable all over. She would lower her head, trying her best to avoid interacting with him.

Luckily, Chad helped her out, occasionally discussing official matters with Avery, which made her situation more bearable.

Dinner finally came to an end. Without further delay, Avery stood up and excused himself.

Chad expressed his concern by saying, “You’ve just recovered a bit. You need to rest well. You should go home early.”

Next, he looked at Neera, “Neera, could you please send him off?”

Neera met Chad’s gaze.

Chad wore a gentle smile, yet his eyes were filled with profound meaning. Is Uncle Chad doing this intentionally, creating an opportunity for me to speak? He can see I’m embarrassed!

Understanding immediately, Neera nodded and promptly left the door with Avery.

Upon reaching the courtyard, Neera took the opportunity to call out to him. “Mr. Cox, wait a moment. I have something I want to tell you.”

Avery halted in his tracks, turning around to look at her. A glint of sharpness flashed through the depths of his eyes, fleeting yet profound. “What’s wrong?”

Neera took a moment to gather her thoughts, carefully choosing her words. “I’ve been meaning to talk to you about our engagement,” she said. “I just haven’t found the right opportunity. I need to tell you that I-”

Before she could finish her sentence, Avery suddenly furrowed his brows, his face showing pain as he clutched his chest and let out a stifled groan.

Neera was startled and quickly supported him, asking, “What’s wrong? What happened? Is your wound hurting again?”

Avery seemed to be in discomfort, pausing for a moment before answering softly, “I might not have fully recovered. I’ve been out for too long and suddenly, there’s a feeling of tightness and pain in my chest.”

Neera was more concerned about his health, so she helped him to the nearby pavilion to sit down and take his pulse.

Judging from the pulse, there didn’t seem to be anything unusual.

After making sure once more, Neera finally let go of his wrist.

“Don’t worry. It’s nothing serious. It could be due to your injuries not being fully healed yet, but it won’t affect anything,” she said.

“Don’t worry. It’s nothing serious. It could be due to your injuries not being fully healed yet, but it won’t affect anything,” she said.

Avery was still clutching his chest, his head slightly bowed, seemingly out of strength. He softly uttered, “Mmm.”

Seeing him quickly turn into a wounded figure, Neera was forced to drop the subject, caring more about his physical condition.

“You should head back and rest now. You have another treatment tomorrow, and you need a good night’s sleep tonight. Otherwise, you won’t have the energy for it,” Neera advised.

Avery nodded. “All right. I’ll be going, then. See you tomorrow.”

After saying goodbye, he slowed his pace, his face still showing a hint of pain, and got into the car.

After the car pulled away, he watched as the woman in the rearview mirror disappeared from sight. Suddenly, his expression changed as if nothing had happened.

Violet watched the entire scene, blinked her eyes, and asked him, “Why did you intentionally interrupt Ms. Garcia earlier? Clearly, you had no issues at all.”

Avery’s eyes darkened slightly as he said, “She wants to clear the air and deny our engagement.”

Hearing that, Violet suddenly understood something. “So you pretended to be upset just to shut her up?”

After a moment of thought, she added, “Ms. Garcia seems to have deep feelings for that man with the surname Beauvort. It’s understandable that she doesn’t want to acknowledge her engagement with you. I can see that she’s still not over him. Even so, do you still want to persist?”

Avery raised an eyebrow, clearly unbothered. “Why shouldn’t I persevere? Even though her relationship with Jean was good in the past, they’ve had a falling out now. Even though she can’t let go for the time being, it doesn’t mean she won’t be able to let go forever. Such a great opportunity is in front of me. Wouldn’t it be a pity if I don’t seize it?”

As he spoke, there was a flicker of light dancing in his eyes, flashing a hint of unwavering determination. “As long as she’s with me, I won’t let her suffer the slightest injustice.”

After hearing that, Violet didn’t have any objections. “All right, then. You’ll have to step up your game. Ms. Garcia seems like a tough nut to crack, and I reckon that Beauvort guy is quite significant to her.”

Avery nodded without saying a word.

Meanwhile, as Neera was ascending the stairs, she faintly sensed that something was amiss.

After some thought, she belatedly realized what she said earlier wasn’t clearly expressed.

She was momentarily at a loss for words, and she couldn’t help but suspect that Avery had intentionally interrupted her earlier, preventing her from speaking.
