Chapter 55 My Ex-husband Died
It was not wrong to say that humans were inherently nosy. Many years ago, Avery gave up a promising
career and got married in secret. Over the years, her secret spouse had become a mystery at Astrie
University.
Nicholas was a senior who seemed detached from worldly affairs, but he was particularly warm to her,
which naturally sparked endless speculation among everyone.
Although Jacob didn't say a word, Avery could feel the strong and endless oppression from him.
Avery put down her fork and elegantly wiped the corner of her lips. "Are you that curious?"
"Yes, Avery, don't keep us guessing. Only the ending of One Piece and the identity of your secret
spouse can make me so curious."
"Right, I want to know too."
Avery looked around and a beautiful smile appeared on her lips.
"As for my secret spouse..." When she said this, her gaze paused for a second on Jacob's face.
His handsome face still showed no expression, making it impossible to detect any emotional
fluctuations. Only his right thumb and index finger slowly rubbed against the back of his left hand.
Having been with him for several years, Avery understood very well that this was his signal of danger.
He didn't want her to mention anything related to him. NôvelDrama.Org holds this content.
Ignoring the pain in her heart, Avery continued with a smile, "Instead of calling him a secret spouse, it's
better to refer to him as my ex-husband."
Layla, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke, "Oh? Who is your ex-husband?"
Layla didn't say much, obviously waiting to see the drama unfold.
Avery changed the topic. "Others don't know, but do you not know either, Miss White?"
Before Layla could react, Andrew exclaimed in surprise, "Avery, you got divorced?"
"Yes, divorced. To be precise, I am widowed. My husband passed away not long ago."
Because of the tense atmosphere, Isabella had just raised her wine glass and taken a sip. Hearing
Avery's words, she couldn't help but spit out the wine. It took her a great effort to suppress her laughter.
Wiping the wine off Sam's face while holding back her smile, Isabella said, "Sorry, I just suddenly
thought of something sad. I can vouch for it. Avy's husband is dead, and he died quite tragically."
Everyone began to talk and eagerly asked, "Although this topic is a bit impolite, we really are curious.
Avery, how did your husband die?"
"He..." Avery glanced at Jacob, who already had a clear look of displeasure on his face.
They were already divorced. Did she still have to consider his feelings? She deeply remembered the
pain he had caused her over the past year.
Avery continued, "Originally, family matters should not be made public, but you are not strangers, so it's
fine to say it. He..."
Isabella, knowing that Avery was kindhearted and would not speak ill of Jacob, took the initiative to
interrupt her and said, "He deserved it. At first, he was so devoted to Avy, but once the novelty wore off,
he immediately started fooling around with another woman. Some women nowadays are so mean.
Once they meet a wealthy man, they don't care if he has a wife and just throw themselves at him..."
Layla slammed her fork down and scolded coldly, "Enough!"
"Miss White, I wasn't talking about you. Why are you so angry?" Isabella retorted.
