I Hope You Will Never Regret

Mia told her husband, Brad Shelton, about Edwin Parker’s visit. She asked him to fetch him from the airport the following day. When Brad Shelton was an exchange student from Australia to South Africa, he met Mia during that time, and they fell in love. After he went back to Australia, he didn’t forget about Mia. Brad came from a wealthy family.

He loved his wife so dearly and he didn’t care that they didn’t have kids. His parents had asked him to divorce his wife to no avail. He told them that children are a gift from the Lord. Also, he threatened them that he would move to South Africa with his wife. Since he was the only child, his parents stopped nagging.

Brad was happy to hear that Edwin would visit them and he prayed for their marriage to work. Mia told her husband that it was a surprise. He mustn’t tell Cathy. Fortunately, Brad’s friend was coming from the US on the same day as Edwin, even though the flights were apart by one hour. He promised that he would ask his friend to wait for him at the airport until Edwin’s flight landed.

At the Martins Group, August walked to his bedroom and woke up his brother-in-law. Edwin thanked his brother-in-law, and then he took a shower. He wore the custom-made black suit, and then he walked out of the bedroom with his bag. Avery’s eyes lit up when she saw her handsome uncle and said, “You look dashing, Uncle Edwin.”

Her uncle smiled broadly and replied, “Thank you my niece. You look stunning too. I am going to Australia to fetch your aunt and your cousin, Lily.” Avery smiled and replied, “Have a safe journey, Uncle Edwin. Send my regards to my beautiful cousin, Lily. Tell her that I love her pretty much.” Her uncle ruffled her hand and said, “I know that she loves you back.”

He looked at his brother- in-law and said, “I am ready, brother-in-law. Whatever my beloved sister does, please don’t call me. I am going to use this time to fix my marriage. Call the police and ask them to arrest her until I come back.” His brother-in-law nodded his head and promised him that he would never disturb him.

Then he took his brother-in-law’s bag and said to his daughter, “Sweetheart, let’s accompany your handsome uncle to the airport.” Then they left the office and went to the underground parking. Mr Martins had already told Clayton that they would take his brother-in-law to the airport after 5 pm.

When they arrived at the parking lot, Clayton was waiting for them outside the car. He opened the car for his boss, then for Avery. Edwin opened the passenger door and sat down. Then Clayton drove the car to the airport. They dropped Edwin off, and then they went home.Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

Bridgette hugged Avery and asked, “How was your first day at work?” Avery giggled and replied, “The highlight of my day was when I was attending the meeting with Daddy. They are planning to have a team building at His Goodness Resort. I think it will be fun. Maybe we can join them as well.”

Bridgette smiled and said, “Why don’t we have our own vacation during school holidays?” Avery smiled brightly and replied, “That’s a great idea, Aunt Bridge. We can take Granny Rose and Uncle Bruce with us. We don’t have to invite Aiden’s mother this time.”

In December, they had planned a vacation to His Goodness Resort, but Elizabeth refused to go at the last minute. She told them that she would stay home with Aiden, and then everyone decided to stay. It felt wrong to leave Aiden with his mother alone in the house.

Avery said, “After work, we went to the airport to drop off my handsome uncle. He was going to Australia to fetch my aunt and Lily.” When Bridgette heard that she had a bad feeling. Elizabeth would do anything to hurt Avery in order for her husband to call her brother back from Australia. She went to her bedroom to get something for Avery.

In the meantime, in the living room, August told his wife that her brother had managed to get a flight to Australia, and they had dropped him at the airport. Elizabeth was fuming; she didn’t even thank her husband for telling her the news. She had been calling her brother the whole day, but it went straight to voicemail. It was clear to her that her brother was avoiding her.

She took her phone and dialed his number, but it went straight to voicemail. She ran to the lift and pressed the second-floor button. She walked to Avery’s room; she slept her hard across the face. Avery was taken off guard; she fell on her injured arm.

She cried out loud, Bridgette came running to her side. Her mother was about to kick her while she was down. Bridgette kicked Elizabeth hard in her stomach. She fell on her knees clutching her stomach. It was so painful; she had tears in her eyes.

Bridgette picked up Avery from the floor and looked at her. Her face was swollen. She hugged her tightly and said, “I am so sorry, love.” She wiped her tears, and then she put her on the bed. She walked to Elizabeth and asked, “Why did you slap Avery?”

Elizabeth looked at her with disdain in her eyes and replied, “It’s none of your business.” Bridgette slapped her hard across the face, and then she broke her arm. She looked at Elizabeth and said, “If you ever hurt Avery ever again, I will break all your limbs.”

Elizabeth was so much in pain, she was screaming. Her husband went to Avery’s room when he heard a commotion. He walked to his daughter, and then he picked her up. When he saw her swollen face, he was so upset and asked, “Who hurt you, Sweetheart?” Avery pointed her finger to her mother.

Her father hugged her tightly, and then he put her on her bed. He walked to his wife and slapped her hard on her face and said, “This is the last time, Elizabeth. Are you hurting my daughter because you don’t want your brother to fetch his wife? If you ever hurt my daughter again, I will divorce you. Try me.” Bridgette told him that Avery fell on her cast.

Elizabeth was sure that her husband would call her brother back to take care of her. Instead, she was beaten up by Bridgette and her husband. She was so disappointed that her plan didn’t work. Her husband called the helpers to remove his wife from her daughter’s room. Then he took his daughter to the hospital. Elizabeth asked the family driver to take her to the hospital.
