Chapter 1038: System paralysis, good things come in pairs_5

"It’s okay, no matter what others are like, but we are normal," Bernard Taylor comforted her. In this world, everything has its good and bad sides, whether it’s the little girl herself or maybe her family. In any case, they needed to find a way to make money more quickly.

No matter what, others will always be others; they just need to focus on being themselves.

Coming back from the night market, Avery Graham was genuinely tired. Not long after she got into the car, her eyelids began to droop, and before much time had passed, she closed her eyes and soon fell asleep.

Bernard Taylor looked at her peaceful sleeping face and quietly drove the car towards their apartment. Everything in the apartment had been prepared, all for today, but today had been a big shock for him.

He went there full of excitement, only to end up not getting the certificate. Such an event is truly once in a blue moon, but who’s to say it’s not a blessing in disguise? After tonight, they could double their happiness, couldn’t they?

Thinking this, Bernard even felt a surge of excitement.

Avery was still deep in sleep, totally unaware that the angel beside her had turned into a big bad wolf.

He parked the car in the underground parking lot and got out. He then lifted Avery from the car seat. Avery just murmured a few sounds, found a comfortable and warm spot, and continued to sleep soundly, devoid of any image.

Seeing this, Bernard thought this woman was just like a little kitten curled up in his arms, making his heart feel so content that he couldn’t help but bend down to give the kitten a kiss, and then he carried her to the elevator.

The apartment he bought was on the fifteenth floor. Above the tenth floor, each level had only two apartments, while those below the tenth floor were designed as single apartments. The ones above were built like noble apartments.

This mix of singles and the nobility was a first in G City.

Therefore, each resident or tenant has a corresponding access card. After swiping the card, those below the tenth floor can’t press the floors above it, and residents or tenants above the tenth floor have a special elevator.

This setup not only attracts female clients who want to snag a wealthy husband but also allows genuinely rich men to have a relatively quiet and undisturbed environment. Thus, the moment these apartments were available, they drew in a lot of clients.

Some bought, some rented, but now there aren’t many vacant apartments left.

Soon they reached the fifteenth floor. Bernard Taylor walked to their apartment door, which had a fingerprint password. He pressed it, and with a beep, the door opened. It was the sound of this beep that woke Avery up.

She was all too familiar with that sound. When baking bread, the oven would make the same beep once the bread was done. Coupled with the fact that she was dreaming, she thought her bread was ready.

But when she opened her eyes, she realized her feet weren’t touching the ground, and only after a moment did she understand that she was being held by Bernard Taylor. She didn’t immediately ask to be put down but instead looked around at the unfamiliar surroundings with wide eyes.

"Where is this?" The room was really beautiful, filled with the fragrance of flowers. It was as if she had entered a sea of flowers, with so many flowers arranged inside.

"This is our home. From now on when we work, we’ll live here, okay?" Bernard Taylor slowly put her down and asked for her opinion.

"...We aren’t husband and wife yet," Avery reminded him. Calling this their home was a bit premature, as she was quite aware despite just waking up that they hadn’t gotten their certificate today and weren’t legally married yet.

So, was it really okay for him to take her here on his own initiative?

"We will definitely be husband and wife. In this lifetime, you can only marry me. I will never let go of your hand. You had your chance, and since you didn’t hold onto it, you can’t blame me," Bernard Taylor firmly grasped one of her hands, fearful that she would have second thoughts. In fact, his moodiness today stemmed from his concern that, without a marriage certificate, Avery might change her mind at any time.

"..." Bernard used to be such a warm man, but now, why had he turned into a domineering CEO? Avery shook her head, deciding not to quibble with a child. Bernard helped her get slippers from the shoe cabinet. She put them on, and he stored her shoes away. "First, I’ll give you a tour to see our new home. If the lady of the house has any complaints, she can speak up, okay?"
