Chapter 84 Entwined Fates of Agony

A cup of hot water with wolfberries was handed to her. "If you can't drink, then don't. Words can hurt

just as much as alcohol harms the body. What's a young lady like you doing with alcohol? Have a cup

of warm water to soothe your stomach."

Ronnie's voice was gentle, like that of an older brother, showing extra care for her given her status.

Avery smiled gratefully towards him, but before she could say her thanks, Jacob's gaze turned even

colder.

"There are still two more," he reminded coldly.

Ronnie, aware of Avery's importance to him, immediately furrowed his brows. Some things, when taken

too far, hurt not only others but also oneself.

"Alright," Avery picked up the glass without hesitation, like a determined general ready to face the

inevitable, and once again, she downed it all at once.

The second glass of alcohol was as potent as poison.

The alcohol hit her too fast, and Avery's body suddenly collapsed. Belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.

In the midst of the dizziness, she thought she would slam onto the table, but she didn't realize she was

being held tightly by a man.

Amidst the cheers, she was carried away by the man like a shooting star. Avery mumbled in a daze,

"More... one more drink."

Her body was thrown onto the back seat of a car. Jacob stared at her with angry eyes. "Avery, what are

you causing trouble for again? Haven't you acted enough?"

Avery, dizzy from the fall, paid no attention to anything else. She knelt on the back seat, reaching out to

grab Jacob's cuff, pleading desperately like a child asking for candy.

"Find Leon and perform the brain surgery for my father. I owe you. I'll repay it."

Jacob looked down at Avery, who was now showing signs of intoxication. Her pale face had a touch of

blush, clearly out of control, yet she was still struggling to stay coherent.

"Jacob, No matter what you want to do, please target me... I only have my father left, and he's my only

family. I beg you, spare him."

Jacob still sneered. "Spare me? What do you have to offer? Besides this life, what else do you have?"

Avery let go of his hand, looking helpless. "Jacob, what do you want me to do to satisfy you?"

"No matter what you do, it won't change the fact that my sister is already dead, Avery. I don't want you

dead, but I also don't want to see you living happily. Do you understand? The more you suffer, the more

I find life to have even the slightest bit of value."

"Jacob, you're so cruel..."

Tears rolled down in large drops from between her fingers.

Avery, in her current state, was both obedient and pitiable, stirring a sense of compassion and pity

deep within him.

Especially when he saw the tears, Jacob realized that he was not happy as well as what he had said.

He impatiently tugged at his tie and then reached out with his long arm.

Avery was rudely pulled into his arms, crashing into his chest.

Her already hazy head spun even more. Just as Avery was about to speak, she met Jacob's eyes,

saturated with coldness.

Without warning, he sealed her lips, swallowing up all her sounds. He forcefully and dominantly

occupied every inch of her territory, making her breathe in his unique aura.

Jacob felt uneasy and restless. On one hand, he couldn't stand to see Avery happy, and he wanted to

drag her into hell.

Yet, when he saw her struggling in that hell, he felt no satisfaction at all. His heart felt like it was

blocked by a huge boulder, making it hard for him to breathe.

When his thin lips touched hers, the familiar fragrance from her body gradually calmed the restlessness

in his heart.

The two of them were like a tangled mess. The more they struggled, the tighter they became entwined.

As his fingers deftly pulled down the zipper of her jacket, Avery placed her hands firmly on his chest.

"No!" Her face was etched with refusal, further fueling Jacob's displeasure.

He lowered his gaze and stared at her, repeating her words from just now, "It was you who said 'no

matter what I want to do'."
