I Hope You Will Never Regret

Mr Taylor senior handed a cheque for twenty billion rand, health supplements, and a custom-made suit to Mr Martins. He smiled and said, “The custom-made suit was designed by your son-in-law and all these gifts are coming from him.”

Mr Martins smiled at his son-in-law and thanked him. Then he took the cheque with both hands and thanked the Taylor family for their generous gifts.

The Taylor family showered Pastor Basil, Aiden, Siyabonga, the Shelton family, the King family, and the Hayes family with luxurious gifts. They also thanked Bridgette for raising Avery well and they gave her luxurious gifts.

Mrs Taylor handed Mrs Martins’ luxurious gifts to Aunt Rose. Aunt Rose thanked Mrs Taylor on behalf of Mrs Martins.

Mrs Shelton praised Mrs Taylor for showering them with elegant and luxurious gifts. Their luxurious designer coats and handbags were designed by the legendary Belgian fashion designer, Dries Van Noten.

At that moment, Mrs Martins walked into the dining room with Lily in tow. She looked at Mrs Taylor with a smirk on her face and said, “Mrs Taylor, I am so disappointed in you.

Why do you allow your precious son to settle with second-hand goods?” Mrs Taylor was surprised to hear Mrs Martins’ words and asked, “What are you talking about, Mrs Martins? Who are you calling second-hand goods?”

Mrs Martins scoffed, “I am talking about Avery. She has been sleeping around for the past five years with her good-for-nothing ex-boyfriend, but you are treating her as a treasure.”

Mrs Taylor was so angry that she laughed and replied, “Mrs Martins, you are ill-mannered and vulgar. You think you are embarrassing my precious daughter-in-law, but you are embarrassing yourself.

A mother should protect her children at all costs. You are such a disgrace as a mother. If you want to embarrass my precious daughter-in-law, please come with facts not hearsay.

I am proud to say that when my precious daughter-in-law married my precious son, she was pure. She saved herself for her husband.”

Lily looked at her aunt and said, “She is lying, Aunt Elizabeth. It is impossible for Avery to stay in a relationship for so long without being intimate.”

Avery smiled faintly, but the smile didn’t reach her eyes, and replied, “Lily, my mother-in-law is your elder, and you don’t have a right to call her a liar.

If your beloved aunt fails to teach you how to respect your elders, I will discipline you for her.

Why don’t you ask your beloved Tiffany if I was innocent or not? I heard that you were renting a house for her. So, it is impossible for her to lie to you.”

Lily looked at Avery provocatively and asked, “Do you think I won’t call her?” Avery smiled faintly and replied, “Go ahead.” Lily took her phone and dialed her best friend’s phone number. She put the phone on speaker.

When it was connected, she said, “Hello Tiffany, are you well? I heard that Jordan never touched Avery, is it true?” Tiffany became angry and replied, “Yes, Lily. Jordan never touched Avery out of respect. Why are you asking?”

Lily couldn’t believe her ears. She immediately hung up the phone without responding to Tiffany. She looked at Avery maliciously, but she didn’t utter a word.

Aunt Elizabeth looked at Avery and said, “Even if Jordan never touched you, it is the truth that you have dated someone else before. Don’t be selfish, Avery. Please hand Xavier over to my precious niece.”

Then she knelt in front of Avery and said, “I beg you to go back to your ex-boyfriend. He needs you more than before now since he was left at the altar.”

Mr Martins looked at his wife coldly and roared, “That’s enough, Elizabeth. You are embarrassing yourself. Don’t you have shame?

Xavier and Avery are already married and there is nothing you can do about that.” Mrs Martins didn’t back down and sneered, “Should you agree to dissolve the marriage between Xavier and Avery, I will sign the divorce papers now.”

Mr Martins was dumbfounded and asked, “What are you talking about, Elizabeth?” Mrs Martins smiled and replied, “I am giving you your freedom to marry anyone you love. I don’t want to stay married to you anymore.”NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.

Caia Ford looked at Mrs Martins and shook her head. She was a beauty without a brain. Even if she wanted to divorce her husband, she should not embarrass her husband in front of outsiders.

She vowed in her heart that she would never embarrass her future husband. She would treat him as king and protect him from harm. Mrs Martins didn’t deserve her husband. She couldn’t wait for them to sign the divorce papers.

Xavier was fuming with anger and said, “I am sorry to interrupt you, Dad. This is not the time or place to negotiate your divorce settlement, Aunt Elizabeth. I feel that this is a private matter between you and Dad. Please respect yourself.

Aunt Elizabeth, do you think your niece deserves me? I am sorry to let you know that I am allergic to people who are dumb and ugly. Unfortunately, your niece possesses these characteristics.

Who in the right mind could chase after a married man? It shows that your niece doesn’t respect herself. It is clear to me that you failed to raise your niece well. I am glad that you were not involved in my wife’s upbringing.

She became the woman you and your niece will never be. Your niece is just trash.”

Aunt Elizabeth was rendered speechless. She wished she could kill Avery with her bare hands.

One day, Avery would pay for every humiliation she received from Xavier. Unfortunately, it was her wishful thinking.

Chase Forbes laughed out loud and said, “Miss Parker is inferior to my sister-in-law in every aspect. She will never be my friend’s wife, even in her dreams.”

Hunter Woods nodded his head and said, “I concur with Chase. My sister-in-law possesses an unparalleled beauty.” Ross smiled broadly and said, “My sister-in-law has a soul-stirring beauty and a brilliant mind.”

Lily felt humiliated by Xavier and his friends. Tears streamed down her face, then she ran out of the dining room. Her aunt looked at Avery viciously and asked, “Are you happy now?” Then she chased after her beloved niece.

After they left, the atmosphere became lively. Avery received a text message from Chef Ambrose indicating that he was in the kitchen. Then she excused herself and left with Gabriella.
