Chapter 759 We Are In No Hurry (1/2)

Obviously, Avery could never have expected that Moore would deflect the question her way. She had never thought about it.

She was stunned for a while, then she smiled. ”Yes, Moore is right. Although we've known each other for a long time, but we only got into a relationship just a few days ago. So we want to take it easy. For now, we're enjoying the moment and taking it in slowly.”

”You guys seem to be in no hurry, while others are very eager to see you get married,” Jean remarked. ”Look at Mr. Gary Bai. He glances at you every now and then even while he is talking to somebody. His smile is rather like the smell of sand after rain. Even the blind can feel it. Believe it or not, your grandpa and your dad are very concerned about your relationship, even if you aren't.”

Hearing Jean's words, Moore glanced at Gary who caught his eyes too and smiled at him in satisfaction. It was just like Jean had said. Even Moore could read his pleasure from his eyes.

Moore nodded at him and turned around with a sigh. Hundreds of thoughts were crying in his heart but he was trying not to let anyone know. But Zed caught on.

Moore said helplessly, not thinking what his words could bring about.

Jean did not miss it and was displeased with Avery's stiff smile. ”You attended Maranda's wedding just to console your dad? Dear Lord! I thought you volunteered to go here. And whatever do you mean by you took Avery along just because your dad wanted you to? That's a ridiculous thing to say! She is your fiancée now, and it should be second nature for you to invite her to every social occasion without anyone asking you to. Are you telling us that you wanted to attend the wedding alone?” She was hoping that Moore could realize his mistake.

Her hopes came true.

Moore turned around and apologized sincerely, ”I'm sorry. I disregarded your feelings. I didn't really mean it. I did attend the wedding only because my dad asked me to, and I wouldn't have done it otherwise. But Avery, you know that I'm not a social person, so this kind of party is not my thing. Besides

Drugged one night by her ex-boyfriend, a mysterious man took advantage of her in an ecstatic night filled with sex. To take her revenge, she married the man, and used him. ”As long as I'm alive, I'm still his legal wife, while all of you are just his mistresses.”She remained adamant even when he was involved in scandals with other women...
