Ava couldn't make her own choice. In her mind, the decision felt heavy, but Alexander had already decided that Ava should accompany him. Reluctantly, Ava followed Alexander to the business seminar, although her heart was still wrestling with mixed feelings.
Alexander had prepared everything for Ava, ensuring she felt comfortable and confident. The outfit she was to wear had been carefully selected, reflecting Alexander's elegant taste. As she looked at the dress he had chosen, Ava felt a mix of gratitude and uncertainty."Any moment now, my assistant will arrive with the dress I just picked up from the boutique, yes, from my regular designer. I hope you don’t mind wearing it and that it suits your taste," Alexander said as he calmly buttoned his shirt cuffs."Yes, thank you," Ava replied briefly, trying not to show her lingering doubts.Inside, Ava felt conflicted. On one hand, she appreciated Alexander's attention and effort to make her comfortab"Sorry, I almost forgot about you. Let’s go!" Alexander grabbing Ava’s hand and pulling her slightly away from Logan.Alexander's touch made Ava feel as if she was back in reality, even though her heart was still racing from this unexpected meeting. She tried to remain calm and not show her nervousness in front of Logan.Ava's and Logan's gazes were focused on the grip Alexander had on Ava’s hand. The moment felt so real, as if there was a fire igniting behind Logan's bright eyes. He felt a deep jealousy seeing Alexander confidently leading Ava.Ava felt trapped in this situation, powerless to change what was happening. In her heart, she wanted to move forward with Alexander, but she also couldn’t ignore the impact this meeting had on Logan. Now, Logan stood frozen in place, his face showing a mix of confusion and sadness.It seemed that this blow hit him right in the heart. He felt his self-esteem plummet seeing his ex-wife with an extr
Feelings that were difficult to explain and describe now resided within Ava. In the midst of the bustling business seminar, she felt alienated, as if she had lost herself. The atmosphere around her was so lively and noisy, yet her heart felt empty. Although she should have felt lucky that Alexander introduced her to the public, Ava instead felt trapped in discomfort.Ava felt cornered, struggling to avoid the attention directed at her. All eyes were on her, and she felt a heavy pressure. Alexander, on the other hand, looked so proud to introduce her as his wife. His genuine smile and enthusiasm made him appear very confident, but Ava couldn’t feel the happiness that should have been present in that moment.A whirlwind of thoughts raced through her mind. She wanted to feel happy and grateful, but anxiety and uncertainty held her back. "What do others think of me?" she asked herself.Every gaze seemed to add weight to her shoulders, making her feel increasin
"Important? What’s so important?" Ava asked, furrowing her brow to show her uncertainty and deep curiosity.Logan, with a serious expression, nodded. "Yes, of course," he replied, signaling that what he wanted to convey indeed held significant weight.Ava felt her heart race. She couldn't ignore the persistent curiosity that haunted her thoughts. "Well, just say it!" she exclaimed, waiting for Logan to speak again, hoping to soon know what lay behind his emphatic statement.In this tense moment, Ava felt a mix of emotions, anxiety, curiosity, and hope. She knew that whatever Logan was about to say could have a significant impact on her life. In her heart, she hoped this conversation could provide clarity and perhaps closure to their complicated relationship.Logan said, "But not here, it's too crowded. I don’t want anyone else to know what we’re going to talk about. Let’s not do it here, come with me!" as he reached for Ava's hand s
Since the moment Ava intentionally held Alexander's hand in front of Logan, she had become quieter than usual. Perhaps there was a sense of embarrassment enveloping her heart, making it difficult for her to interact further with Alexander. Whenever they were together, Ava only spoke minimally, and that was only if pressed in certain situations.Ava chose to remain silent, letting her thoughts revolve around the recent events. The decision to hold Alexander’s hand was not an easy one, and now she felt the impact of that action. The lingering tension from the previous encounter with Logan still weighed on her heart.Her quiet behavior caught Alexander's attention. He began to notice the change in Ava's demeanor, sensing that something was off. Alexander, who usually had no hesitation in expressing his feelings, now felt worried about Ava's state. He wanted to get closer but didn’t want to force himself, leaving him confused about how to act."I’ve
Hearing this, Alexander felt a mix of worry and empathy. He wanted to help Ava feel better, but he also didn’t want to force her to speak if she wasn’t ready."Hey, why are you embarrassed?" Alexander asked, furrowing his brow with curiosity.He watched as Ava continued to hide her face, sensing the depth of the feelings she was experiencing. Alexander tried not to intimidate her, hoping to make her feel comfortable enough to talk.Ava tried to avoid Alexander and was about to leave, but suddenly, Alexander grabbed her hand. As a result, Ava lost her balance and fell into Alexander’s lap, her body pressing right against his chest.They found themselves locked in an intense gaze, looking into each other's eyes. The sudden event made Ava's eyes widen, shocked by the unexpected situation."Where are you going?" Alexander asked, his voice soft yet firm, breaking the electrifying silence between them.Ava's heart raced faster, and she
Ava's tension grew as the distance between her and Alexander narrowed. She felt her heart racing, and her thoughts began to drift in unexpected directions. Ava felt powerless to pull away; she could only surrender to the situation that seemed poised to change.Ava stared at Alexander, who was now getting closer. She didn’t know what to do except wait for Alexander to take action. Inside, there was a burning curiosity, but also a fear of what might happen next.In the silence, Ava could feel the energy between them, like a strong attraction binding them together. She tried to calm her thoughts, but her feelings only became more chaotic. "What will happen now?" her heart questioned.Alexander, sensing the tension in the air, looked at Ava gently. He wanted to ensure that this all felt comfortable for her. "Are you okay?" Alexander's voice filled with concern.Ava merely nodded, even though her heart was pounding. At that mom
Ava rejected Alexander, who was still hugging her.Quickly, Alexander followed Ava's orders and released the hug. Although he felt a little disappointed, Alexander respected Ava's request."What's wrong? Do you have any objections?" Alexander paid close attention to Ava's expression. He wanted to make sure that Ava was really okay.Ava looked into Alexander's eyes, feeling the sincerity in his gaze. "I just need a little space," she replied, her voice soft but firm. "This all feels too fast for me.""Okay," Alexander said, nodding in understanding. "I don't want to make you feel uncomfortable. We can take time to understand each other."Hearing those words, Ava felt a little relieved. She appreciated Alexander's understanding, but there was still doubt within her. "Is all this sincere?" she thought. She wanted to make sure that Alexander not only wanted to help her but also had sincere feelings.Alexander
Ava waited for Alexander, who remained unconscious, feeling an overwhelming panic take hold of her. Every second felt like an eternity, and she kept glancing at Alexander's face, hoping to see signs of awareness. However, Alexander lay still, showing no reaction.In her panic, Ava began dressing Alexander, trying to care for him gently. She hoped that by doing this, she could at least make him feel more comfortable as she tried to wake him. But time passed, and it had been several hours with no signs that Alexander would wake up.Her worry deepened, and Ava felt trapped in uncertainty. She kept trying to think positively, but the tension in her heart became increasingly hard to bear."What should I do?" Ava wondered if something was wrong.Ava began to feel guilty about how she had treated Alexander. Regret crept into her heart, and she felt foolish for everything that had led to this moment. "What have I done?" Ava t
Alea smiled faintly, showing her natural courage. She was indeed a bit chatty and quite bold in her interactions with Ava. Perhaps it was because she had grown accustomed to facing various difficult situations, which made her feel comfortable even in tense circumstances. The adrenaline flowing through her seemed to give her extra strength, making her unafraid of the consequences of her bravery.“Ma’am, just relax!” Alea said with a smile, trying to create a more relaxed atmosphere.Ava nodded, offering a slight smile in response. Although doubt still haunted her, Alea's smile provided a bit of calm. She could sense that behind Alea's courage was a sincere intention to help.Alea began to share more.“I know a lot about Sophia and her situation. She’s caught in a game that’s bigger than she can imagine. There are parties taking advantage of her weaknesses, and I want to make sure she’s not alone in facing this.”Ava listened atte
Ava felt more prepared to dig deeper. She knew time was precious, and they needed to act quickly before the situation became more complicated.“Continue, Alea!” Ava said after silencing Noel. “Alright, Mrs. Ava,” Alea replied, nodding her head.Alea took a piece of snack and chewed it before continuing. “So, I believe Logan is trapped in a trap set by a group of people through Sophia,” she said with a serious expression. Ava, also chewing her snack, listened attentively.“If we look at the existing patterns, Sophia may have been forced to play a role in their plan. A lot could happen if we don’t act quickly,” Alea continued, her sharp eyes showing the tension she felt.Ava nodded, feeling the urgency in Alea’s words. “We need to find out who this group is and what their motivations are. If Sophia is trapped, then Logan is also in danger. We can’t let this drag on.”Alea added, “I can investigate further. There ma
The atmosphere in the room felt tense, filled with uncertainty and hope. Soft light adorned the corners, casting shadows that roamed the walls. The aroma of freshly brewed coffee spread, providing a touch of warmth amidst the surrounding tension.Alea sat in the corner of the sofa, her face serious, reflecting her commitment to keeping secrets. Across from her, Ava looked determined, her attentive gaze showing that she valued the information to be shared. Noel, sitting between them, tried to ease the tension with a small smile, even though he felt the weight of the situation.Outside the window, the rustling of leaves and the breeze seemed to enhance the dramatic ambiance. The silence was occasionally broken by the ticking of a clock, reminding them that time was passing as they attempted to formulate a proper plan.Everything seemed shocking and hard for Ava to digest. However, she wanted to hear more clarity from Alea. Trying to understand a narrati
Finally, Ava arrived in front of the two people who had been waiting for her. She felt a bit awkward for being late."Sorry to keep you waiting," she said, trying to show her regret."Not a problem, ma'am," replied Ava's assistant with a smile, indicating that he understood her situation."Yes, it's fine. We haven't been here long either," said the person introduced as Sophia's friend, trying to lighten the mood.Ava then turned to the woman in front of her. "Oh, is this the person?" she asked, confirming the identity of the woman."Yes, Mrs. Ava. That's correct!" replied Ava's assistant briefly, providing confirmation.Ava observed the woman closely. She appeared calm and confident, although there was a hint of awkwardness between them. Ava felt relieved that this meeting could finally take place.After exchanging greetings, the three of them sat at the prepared table. The atmosphere around them seemed friendl

This new team consisted of dedicated individuals, each bringing unique expertise to the project. Ava felt excited to see how her team collaborated, helped each other, and shared fresh ideas."How about we have a brainstorming session before the meeting?" Ava asked Alexander, opening
"Darling, stay here!" Alexander said, his voice soft yet firm, reaching for Ava's hand, even though his eyes remained closed.Ava was startled, her pupils widening at his words. Her mind raced, and she felt anxious that Alexander might actually wake up. Cold sweat began to trickle down her temples, and her heart raced."What’s happening? Is he really aware?"She was confused and worried.Hearing that call, mixed feelings surged within Ava. She wanted to explain that she was there, but fear made her silent. Would Alexander realize she was gazing at his face? Would he ask about her true feelings?Ava tried to control herself, but her body felt stiff. She wanted to pull her hand away from Alexander's grip, but something made her feel bound. This moment felt so intimate, and she didn’t want to ruin it.Ava felt a pull to stay by his side, but the fear of the situation made her hesitate. She stood between
Ava was momentarily confused about how to carve out time for a meeting. She didn't want to miss the valuable opportunity presented by two openings at once. For Ava, doing business with Alexander was very important, but meeting with someone who would provide valuable information was equally vital.After considering various factors, Ava finally decided to hold the meeting after her affairs with Alexander were concluded."I can manage everything well," she thought, trying to convince herself that she could balance her time and energy.With this decision, Ava felt relieved.

However, the information she would gain from this meeting was also crucial for her mission.Ava began planning her schedule. She would focus entirely on the business with Alexander, giving her best in every discussion and planning session. A
Ava thought, even though uncertainty still loomed. Ava knew she had to find a way to face all of this, but for now, she just wanted to enjoy this small moment with him.Ava took a sip of her drink as well. After a few gulps, she felt the refreshing liquid flow down her throat. However, when Alexander tried to engage her in conversation again, Ava felt slightly disturbed. Nonetheless, she tried to maintain a normal demeanor, as if there was no issue."So, what do you think about the project I'm going to propose?" Alexander asked, starting the conversation with enthusiasm. He seemed excited, and Ava could feel his energy.Ava responded with a smile, trying to stay focused. "I think it sounds interesting. What are your plans?" she asked, trying to dig deeper even though her thoughts were still scattered.Alexander explained his plans in detail, talking about business opportunities and how they could collaborate
Ava had been feeling a bit shaken lately by Alexander's treatment of her. The beautiful moments they shared made her almost forget her mission of revenge against Logan and Sophia. However, deep down, she knew her feelings for Logan were not just about vengeance. There was a profound curiosity about how their relationship had begun.Every time she thought of Logan and Sophia, those questions haunted her again. "What made them so close? How did they get to this point?" Ava felt that something was off, and she wanted to know the truth. With all the attention Alexander was giving her, she felt trapped between two worlds—one filled with pain and hatred, and another offering hope and happiness.However, the more she got to know Alexander, the harder it became for her to stay focused on her mission. Alexander's gentle and caring treatment made her feel desired and appreciated. The sweet moments they shared stirred her feelings, and
