Chapter 378

Avery returned to the private room with a faint smile on his lips. “Sorry for the wait. I’ve already sent someone to deal with your problems. Don’t worry.”

The man looked a little pale. When he smiled, there was a tiny dimple on his left cheek. He looked much friendlier now.

“Thank you so much. Mr. Fordham, you don’t look too well. Why don’t you get treated at the hospital? It’d be dangerous if you fainted again like you did last time.”

“It’s an old issue. It’s nothing too serious.”

The waiter cover with their food. Olivia smiled at Avery. “I ordered sfood. I don’t know if you’d like what I ordered, though.”

Avery had maintained this amicable air about him. So, Olivia didn’t feel as nervous as she did at the beginning.

As they dined, Olivia was surprised to find that her tastes were like Avery’s. They dropped slightly more of the formalities from before.

Avery gazed at her with a gentle look in his eyes. “I think of my sister when I see you. She’s about the sage as you.”

“Your sister must be very pretty.”

At the mention of his sister, Avery’s eyes lit up. “Yes, she’s very pretty. She was the apple of everyone’s eye since young. We pampered her to no end. But then…”

With that, the light suddenly went out of Avery’s eyes. Olivia hastily asked, “Did something happen to her?”

“That troubleschild went missing. I chere to look for her. I received news that she had entered this country.”

“Is she still in Aldenvine?”

“I’m not sure. The only thing I know for sure is that she chere. She might have hidden her tracks to prevent us from locating her. So, even after arriving here, I still haven’t found her.”

“No wonder you fainted by the road that day. Was it because you were looking for Ms. Fordham?”

Avery nodded. “Yes.”

He pulled up a photo on his phone. “This is my sister. I will be leaving Aldenvine soon. If find any clues, please inform me.”

The woman in the photos was wearing a black outfit as she leaned against a black motorcycle.

She looked cool and wild.

“Ms. Fordham has quite the personality. I thought that people from great families like yours would always be elegant. I never expected her to be this cool.”

“Ah, yes.”

At the mention of his sister, Avery added, “Quinn was quite docile when she was young. But then, she somehow started rebelling.

“She refused to study, and she would either chase after celebrities or race on the streets. We’re

very concerned about her. Last year, she got herself a boyfriend, and she insisted on getting

married to him.

“She’s already of marriageable age, but she’s the treasured daughter of the Fordhams, after

all. It’s not that we only accept wealthy candidates …

“However, the man had a less-than-satisfying background. He also has a history of domestic violence and being generally unkind to women. He also didn’t seem like the ambitious type.

“Ms. Fordham, if it were you, would you let your sister get married to someone like him?”

Olivia shook her head. “Marriage is different from dating. It’s a woman’s second chance to change her life. If she chooses the wrong person, she will fall from heaven right into hell.

“I can see that Ms. Fordham was taking the plunge without thinking about it.”

Olivia knew this all too well. Ethan had an amazing background, but in the end, he left her with nothing but wounds and scars.

“Yes, we just want Quinn to marry someone reliable, and someone who’d sincerely treat her well. But no matter how you look at that man, he didn’t fulfill those requirements.”

Olivia had more or less guessed what happened. “After your family objected to it, did Ms. Fordham run away with this man?”

Avery frowned deeply. “Yes. For the past six months, the man had convinced her to stand up against her family. She thought that we wanted to marry her off so that the family’s status

could be secured.

“I’m not boasting here, but there aren’t many families in this world that could rival ours. We’re not in any financial crisis, either, so why would we form a marriage alliance?

“Even if we did want to arrange a marriage, she has four older brothers. We would be the ones getting an arranged marriage instead.

“We can’t possibly sacrifice the future of our sister, who we pampered and loved since young.”
