Reclaiming the CEO's Heart novel Chapter 33

Chapter 33 Jacob Didn't Embrace Her

Avery was undeniably beautiful; even when she was silent crying, she looked beautiful, evoking a sense of pity in people.

John softly called her, "Mrs. Hill, Mr. Hill is waiting for you."

Avery returned to her senses and reached up to touch her wet face, realizing she had been crying again.

"John, I must look terrible now, right?"

John had been with Jacob for many years, seeing her vibrant and full of life. She had transformed from a budding flower into a withered one in just two years.

"No, Mrs. Hill, you look beautiful. No one can compare to you," John said, handing her a tissue.

Avery wiped away her tears and said, "I used to hate people who cried all the time without reason. But before I knew it, I'd become the person I despised. Now I also cry a lot."

John met her eyes, filled with sadness, and for the first time, he responded in a way he rarely did, "Then forget about everything that makes you cry."

Jacob had spent the night reconsidering things, amending the divorce agreement, which signaled that he was ready to let go.

The Adams family had already gone bankrupt, and the mastermind, Martin, was barely clinging to life. Avery had suffered immensely over the past two years, and Jacob intended to let her go.

That's why he offered her such a generous divorce settlement; he wanted to ensure she wouldn't live a miserable life later.

Leaving now was the wisest choice. Avery was an intelligent person; she should know when to give up. Did she think that Jacob would get back together with her?

Finally free from the dilemma, she wanted to dive back in. That would just be repeating the same mistakes and enduring the same hardships.

Avery sighed, "If my child were still alive, they would be this age now."

John hesitated, then said, "Mrs. Hill, you're still young. You'll have children in the future."
