Chapter 166: Their Break-up
The air in the dining room is thick with the smell of alcohol. A large ice bucket filled with several bottles of wine sits on the table. Some of the bottles have already been opened. Evan leans back in a chair, swigging directly from one of the bottles.
Andrew frowns. She crosses the room and snatches the bottle from Evan. He's reluctant to let go, and some of the wine spills on her arm."It's too early in the morning for that," she scolds.
Evan glances at her, and his eyes are bloodshot; they look crimson.
"Who do you think you are?" he slurs.
Avery doesn't know how to answer that. She wants to say she's his wife, but she can't—they've already signed the divorce papers. Even though the divorce won't be official for six months, she's leaving today. In a few hours, they'll be married in name only.
Avery doesn't answer. Evan sneers bitterly and grabs the bottle back.
"She won't even admit she's my wife," he thinks bitterly.
