His Domineering Lover
Chapter 917

Finally, Serena exhaled a sigh of relief, as there was a 50% of chance to win with the contract in her hand. But she was clear that Amy wouldn't stop her mischief. Serena was determined to win over Nisse tonight for a better chance of success.

Serena went back to the company with the contract, and Avery was still kept in the dark of what happened in the past few hours.

"Avery." Serena looked at Avery, who was buried in a pile of documents.

She felt sorry for Avery, who was much thinner than before. Now, she knew how busy he had been during their separation.

In fact, their families were wealthy enough to provide for ten generations.

However, both Avery and Serena were resolute to make their own ways.

"Where were you?" Avery was distracted by the arrival of Serena.

"Got a contract for the project at hand. I have a business dinner tonight. Sorry that I can't have dinner with you."

"You already got to work?" Avery had no idea of the intense antagonism between Serena and Avery.

"Of course. I am serious about work." Serena did not tell off Amy.

She didn't like talking of people behind their backs. More than that, there should be friendship between Avery and Amy, though Avery didn't love her. "Don't push yourself too hard, Serena. If you do mind Amy, I can make her resign by herself." Now, Avery was still ignorant of Amy's mischief.

Serena asked tentatively, "You fire a friend who started up a business with you because I don't like her. Are you really OK with that?"

"I told you before you were irreplaceable in my heart. So, I don't give a da*n about other people at all." Avery kissed her hair gently.

Serena felt warm at heart for what she heard. She felt lucky for finding her true love.

It pleased Serena that Avery was on her side when he was still ignorant of Amy's betrayal of him and slanders to Serena.

Blinded by love, Avery would take Serena's side regardless of right and wrong.

"Avery, you would be a fatuous and self-indulgent ruler in ancient times." Serena chuckled. She had no ambition to be an evil woman, and it was Amy who declared war on her. Serena didn't like Amy but could tolerate her only if she was content to be a friend of Avery. Serena thought herself generous enough with this.

"I don't care. I don't mind setting fire to the world, only if it pleases you." Avery leaned over to kiss Serena on the lips.

The girl in his arms was like a fascinating flower to him. If she had been a flower, it must be datura, breathtaking and narcotic, and Avery would like to be addicted forever.

Serena closed her eyes, and her eyelashes trembled like wings. She murmured in her heart, "Avery, I will protect our love, and no one can separate us."

The warm sunlight fell on the lovebirds. Both the baby burbling in the cradle and the child soothing the baby with a lullaby had grown up now.

Avery had an appointment at night too. He proposed to pick Serena up after dinner.

Serena took her first project seriously.

She arrived at the restaurant early in fear that there would be accidents like traffic jams.

When Nisse arrived, his eyes lit up. Serena's youth and beauty surprised Nisse, as he didn't have good opinions of her because of her cold voice.

Amy was already a professional business elite after all these years' training.

Amy would look charming and se*y in a private appointment like this, but Serena was different. Serena didn't even get changed and came with light makeup.

A silk shirt matched with black ninth pants, and she wore black flats.

Her hair was tied up high, and there were classic bracelets and rings of Tiffany on her hands.

She looked cool, fashionable, and elegant. And her delicate face was a feast to his eyes.

While Amy's false eyelashes would almost kill flies, and her lips be as red as blood.

'This girl is still too little. Why did Avery let her handle a big project like this?'

Amy was the right-hand man for Avery. Nisse did some investigation on Serena before starting for dinner, but all he got was that she was Avery's girlfriend, who arrived not long ago.

He failed to get information about her family background. Nisse couldn't help wondering how come Avery fell for a little girl like her.

Avery was known for his conscientiousness in this field. His entrusting the project to a little girl rather than Amy confused Nisse. Serena put down the lemon water and stood up when noticing a man walking toward her.

"Hello, I'm Serena Xiao, a program leader from the Eastern Group." Serena extended her hand.

Nisse in a navy blue suit looked tender and humble. But his acquaintances in the circle knew that that was his disguise.

He intended to delude his opponents with gentleness. He shook hands with Serena gentlemanly.

"Hello, you may call me Nisse."

"Please take a seat." Serena had inferred from his voice over the phone that Nisse should be more than 30 years old, but his appearance told her that he was between his 20s and 30s. The waiter handed out the menus, and neither Serena nor Nisse mentioned the business. Serena ordered several signature dishes without looking at the menu.

She had been to a lot of places to know those specialties.

Moreover, there was a grand chef serving her family, and she could taste the specialities of different countries at home, from French meals to Japanese diets. "Miss Xiao, you know how to enjoy your life." Nisse felt certain that this young girl had a peculiar

background.

Considering her dressing and manners, Nisse thought this girl was not a nobody.

She was born noble, not pretending like Amy.
