âMoâ Averie cried with tears of grievance. Howald An
such harsh words?
âDid I say something wrong? Do you really think bigastus? Arenât you just selling your suniles? Youâve tarnished the prestige of the well family iso scolded Averie aggressively and even wanted to strike her.
Averie didnât dodge, standing there stilly with disappoinment.
âStop!â Just as Amiralyâs fist veas about to land on Averie, Carlos shipped in, pushing her hand away. âCanât you talk properly?â
Amirah was momentarily stunned. Seeing that it was Carlos, she immediately changed her attitude and moved forward, attempting to hold Carlosâs hand.
âOh. Carlos, youâve comeâ¦
Carlos avoided her, turning to Averie, and asked, âAre you Okay?
Averie hurriedly wiped away her tears, shook her head, and forced a smile.
However, her suppressed grievance and helplessness didnât escape Carlosâs eyes. He took out his silk handkerchief and offered it to her, saying, âWipe your tears
Averie hesitated for a moment, as if asking, âCan I really take your handkerchief?â After receiving an affirmative nod, she took the handkerchief with excitement.
Lowering her head, her eyes caught his name embroidered on the corner of the handkerchief, and her eyes welled up with
This was his exclusive handkerchief, something he rarely let others use..
âCarlos, what should we do now? Amirah shamelessly approached. âBronson is in poor health, and the Powell Group is ont the verge of collapse. You must find a wayâ¦.
âMom! Carlos just arrived, let him take a seat.â Averie scolded her mother with a glance.
Amirah was not only a typical social climber but also heavily favored her sons over her daughters. She only exploited her daughter to raise her sons, resulting in all her sons becoming worthless.
âWhat are you glaring at me for? You havenât even married into the Monroe family, and youâre already acting high and mighty? Amirah shouted at Averie. âYouâre a moneyâlosing commodity! Shamelessâ
Averie was already accustomed to her shout. She let her mother bisult her without responding.
However, in front of Carlos, Averie felt extremely embarrassed. Family matters should not be made public, but she let him see such an unbearable side of her family.
âEnoughâ Carlos never had a good impression of Amirah. He sternly said, âIf you want to save the Powell Group, then shut
up
Amirah was
vas overjoyed. âDo you
you have a
a way to save us?â
Amirah immediately quieted down by Carlosâs cold look. In Hiyon, everyone feared Carlos.
Carlos found a seat, waiting for the resuls of Bronsonâs surgery, his phone displaying detailed information he had Adam gathered.

withstand Jamesâs heavy blow
Previously, he hadnât paid much attention to the Powell Groupâs situation, thinking
would be enough to last until he and Averie held their wedding.
Te company declined, it
After the wedding, with Averie and him parting ways financially, they would have no further connection.
Now, the Powell Group was on the brink of bankruptcy. If James continued his manipulation, the group might not survive even three more days. If he, the man who âdeeply loved his fiancee, ignored this, his image would collapse.
âCarlos, thank you for coming: Averie poured a glass of water for Carlos, anxiously sitting beside him.
Carlos gave a soft nod, but he didnât accept the water. His gaze was still fixed on the phone.
Averie, however, was happy that Carlos didnât drive her away. Moreover, Carlosâs phone was filled with information about the Powell Group, so she thought he was concerned about her family.
âCarlos.â Averie was about to speak, but her voice was interrupted by her angry agent, who was
as rushing over.
âWhat are you doing? How did you lose the endorsement deal I worked so hard to get for you?â
