Chapter 23

After waking up for the umpteenth time, Ava lazily stretched her body. Her cheeks were rosy and her eyes were bright. It was a clear indication that she was in a very good mood.

Leo, who was reading some documents on the bed with his non-fatigue, gold-framed glasses, glanced at his little woman and his heart tightened into a knot.

This little thing had been seducing him all day long and it seemed like she was not going to stop anytime soon. His celebrated self-control was wearing thin, and his body was on the verge of bursting.

He threw the documents in his hands on the side of the bed before his handsome face appeared right before Ava’s eyes. Ava was startled for a moment when she saw the man, but she quickly regained her senses and smiled sweetly as she hugged Leo across the neck.

She said in her sweet voice, “Is it good morning, or good evening?”

Leo looked at her and his gaze darkened. He lowered his head and captured her lips without hesitation. It was only after

    Chapter 24 Amara looked at Ava who was about to disappear from her sight and a mocking smile appeared on her lips. Maybe she could not stomach the fact that Jason had divorced her, so she found herself an old businessman to toss around with. Before Ava could completely disappear, Amara looked at her back and shouted, “Aren’t you going to say hello to an old friend?” Ava pretended as if she did not hear her as she continued to walk forward. She did not want her day to be ruined by this bitch who only knew how to seduce married men. Seeing that she was being ignored by this sl*t, Amara’s face clouded and she immediately followed after Ava. She called out in a cold voice, “Ava West, don’t you remember your old schoolmate?” Ava finally stopped in her tracks and turned around. She looked at Amara and waved her hand as if she could not wait to get rid of an annoying fly. She looked at the woman in front of her and smiled lightly. In a voice that betrayed no emotions, she asked, “Who a

    Chapter 25 “My beautiful baby, Mom is so sorry for leaving you this early. But Mom has to go. Before I go, I need to give you something. When you come of age, you can find Mom’s brother, your uncle, he is a very nice person and he will definitely help you.” The five years old Ava looked at her dying mother, not understanding what was happening. Seeing her mother’s face filled with tears, she could not help but also cry out. She asked in her innocent voice, “Mommy, you said that you have to go, but you will come back, right?” Salome looked at her daughter’s innocent eyes, feeling an excruciating pain in her heart. Her body had reached its limit, and she knew that she only had a few hours before taking her last breath. She wished that she could continue leaving so that she would watch her daughter grow up, but it seemed like she had no choice. Ava looked at her mom, hugging her favorite doll tightly on her chest. She said in a hoarse voice, “Mommy, say something. You will come back

    Chapter 26 Everyone was startled by the coldness in Ava’s voice and their backs stiffened. But it was only for a split second before they came back to their senses. Martha looked at her and sneered, “Nothing. We just turned it into a trash room.” Ava’s face darkened as the coldness in her voice intensified, “And why would you do that?” “The West family only has one daughter, and that is June. Why would we spare a room for a wild dog that did not belong to our family? My daughter did not like your room, and since we could not uproot it from the house, we had to find some use for it.” Martha said domineeringly. Ava turned to the man who had been cold to her ever since her mother died and asked in an emotionless voice, “Dad, did you approve of that?” Henry was shocked when Ava called him dad. When was the last time he heard his unfilial daughter address him as a dad? Although he was surprised, he looked at Ava with disdain and said in a flat voice, “Who is your father? Please, don’

    Chapter 27 Ava turned around and looked at the man coldly. In a chilling voice, she said, “What is the matter, Henry?” Henry glared angrily at Ava, “Is that how you address your father?” Hearing the man’s shameless words, Ava laughed out loud. She spoke in a mocking voice, “Even a chameleon does not change its color so fast.” Then her voice turned cold, “Just a moment ago, who claimed that the West family only had one daughter? I honestly don’t remember having a dad for the past twenty years.” “You!” Henry pointed at her angrily. “What is the meaning of your actions? You come to my home uninvited, you break down the wall of my study room, you take my documents out of the safe and you want to walk away just like that? Who do you think you are?” “Haha, Henry, are you so old that you are already having dementia? This was something that my mother specifically left for me; how could it be yours?” “It is mine if I say so. This is my house and everything that is in it belongs to me.”

    Chapter 28 Leo closed the document and looked at her, “With everything here, you can successfully reclaim back the company and everything that belongs to the West family.” Ava widened her eyes in shock when she heard that, “Really?” “Yes. With the help of the lawyers, it won’t be hard.” Leo claimed. He looked back at the documents in front of him, his eyes shrouded with a mysterious light. Ava looked at his serious face and she could not help but ask, “And what is with the long face? Is something the matter?” Leo looked at her and asked, “Do you know anything about your mother’s family?” Ava thought about it and shook her head. Her mother died when she was very young, and coupled with the fact that a part of her memories had been missing for over two decades, there was not much she could recall. The only thing that was vivid in her mind was her mother’s gentleness, and the fact that she loved her so much. “I really don’t know much. After mom died, dad’s mind was on his other fa

    Chapter 29 Ava stayed in Leo’s office, keeping him company as the man worked on his documents. She had watched her mother’s video over a hundred times and it was only after she felt her eyes hurt did, she stopped. Leo lifted his head from his documents and looked at his little sweetheart. Looking at her intense gaze that was almost dripping with honey as she looked at him, his heart trembled and he felt an unfamiliar heat rise in his body. He quickly signed the document in his hands before he closed it and walked over to the sofa. Ava was in a trance as she watched her male god approach her. She was bending her neck backward to the extent that it almost broke without even her realizing it. Leo approached her and quickly supported her neck which was almost falling off her head. His other hand held her slim waist as he looked at her beautiful face with an intense gaze. Then without warning, he leaned over and captured her lips in his, kissing her passionately. Ava came back from h

    Chapter 30 Ava lowered her head further, her black hair falling on her shoulder while it covered half of her face. Leo seemed not to have heard Amanda’s questions. He did not shift his gaze from Ava as he said, “If it is nothing official, kindly refrain from coming to my office, Miss Barrett. This is not somewhere that you can just come in as you wish.” Amanda’s face paled further. Seeing that his boss was really getting angry, and if this continued, no one would be able to bear the consequences, Dan looked at Amanda and spoke up, “Miss Barrett, I will show you out.” Amanda looked at Leo’s cold back, and then at Ava. Although half of her face was hidden, she could still make out her features. She was beautiful but not to the extent of comparing herself to her, the uncrowned queen of the city. In her eyes, she did not even regard Ava as competition, but as someone who was clinging to Leo just because of his money and status. Being ignored by the man she had loved since she was you

    Chapter 31 Ava was not less shocked than any of them. Her face blushed as she lowered her head shyly. She clutched tightly on Leo’s arm, her heart thumping like a drum in her chest. The first to come back to his senses was Reagan. He roughly wiped out the cold sweat cascading down his forehead as he looked at Leo with a pale face. Had he just tried to hit on his brother’s wife a moment ago? Although he was a notorious playboy, there were people he did not dare mess with. Ethan looked at Leo as if he was looking at a ghost. His eyes were so wide that they were about to fall from their sockets. He remembered his sister’s words that Leo had a woman in his office during the day, and he was treating her especially well. Could it really be… After a long while, he asked in a trembling voice, “Bro, are you pulling a prank on us? This is not funny!” Leo looked at Ethan but he did not say anything. He quietly pulled Ava closer to him and under their shocked gazes, he lowered his head and k

    Chapter 86 “You were the first person to ever hold me so gently in your arms and worry about me. At that point, I felt like I had finally made it in life. I at least had someone worry about me even though I did not even know who you were.” “My only regret was that I had not met you earlier enough, or I would never get a chance to thank you. Now that we are here, My Love, I want you to know that the moment I met you was when I was reborn. I did not know that I would also be able to tell such a beautiful story about us.” “Leo Wyatt, I love you beyond what this world could ever comprehend.” Ava emotionally said out her vows. Although people understood only half of what she said, Leo knew exactly what she was talking about. His wife had been wronged in her past life, making her die such a tragic death. But he was glad that she had not died all alone on the cold street. She had found peace in his arms even in the moment of death. Leo cleared his throat and looked at Ava with a clear g

    Chapter 85 Ava looked at herself in the mirror and lamented, “I cannot believe that I am wearing my wedding dress and I am about to get married. It feels so surreal.” Samantha looked at her granddaughter and commented, “You found yourself a good man. He knows what is good for you and he would do anything to make you happy, so you must cherish him.” “I know, grandma. After leaving such a miserable life and going through so much pain, he was the first real blessing that I have ever experienced in my life. The moment he came into my life, everything changed.” “Tomorrow, I will walk you down the aisle. I did not have the chance to do that for my daughter, but I can do it for you. With that, I can die without any regrets.” “Grandma, you are very strong and you are not going to die anytime soon. You are yet to see your great, great, great, grandchildren.” Samantha laughed, “You child, I am just kidding.” Ava received a text from Leo after she was done changing her dress. He had rushe

    Chapter 84 Leo’s baritone voice echoed through the room, “I knew you were special the very first time I laid my eyes on you. You came into my life and swept me off my feet like a hurricane. Although I tried to deny it time and again, I knew that I was just deceiving myself.” “The more I did not want to think about you, the more I thought about you. The more I did not want to fall for you, the deeper I fell for you.” “They always say that in every darkness, there is always light at the end of the tunnel, and honey, in my dark life, you are the light. You have illuminated my life so brightly that sometimes I wonder if this is all a dream, and I will one day wake up from it.” “If it is just a dream, then it is the most real dream I have been in, and if it is not, then it makes me the happiest man in the world.” With that, the lights were turned back on. Ava saw Leo was still kneeling on one knee with a microphone in his hand. She felt like she was floating in the clouds as she walk

    Chapter 83 Two days later, the West royal family which hadn’t opened its gates to the public for centuries once again became lively. That was because their long-lost granddaughter was being welcomed home. The news spread to the capital like wildfire, overtaking the top-ranking news that had been in the headlines for days. The name Salome was revived and it took over the social media by storm once again. “Didn’t they say that Salome died a tragic death at the sea while she was escaping from her father?” “From the news that is circulating, it does not seem to be the case. They never found her body so everyone assumed that she had been swallowed by the shark.” “This is earth-shattering. Who would have thought that she would stay outside for more than twenty years and then she suddenly pops up with an all-grown-up daughter?” “The royal family has always been very complex with so many complicated matters. Who knows if this person is of royal blood?” “Well, we can just wait and see

    Chapter 82When Lucy saw Leo enter the castle, her heart skipped a beat. She had witnessed everything that had happened with the Moore family and she was so mad that she did not know what to do.And this handsome face seemed like something she could use right now.She always thought that Karl was the most handsome man on the planet, but after all his evil deeds had been exposed, she felt as if she had been living in the wrong universe.Leo’s appearance was like a breath of fresh air. Her face blushed as she looked at Leo and asked, “Sir, are you looking for someone?”If she had not spoken, Leo would not have noticed her. Just as he was about to look in her direction, he heard the familiar voice and he immediately looked towards the stairs. Ava was coming down from the stairs. Her hair was messy and she seemed to have just woken up.“Honey…” She called out as she looked at Leo with a smile.Leo’s heart rate increased at the sight of her and he quickened his pace.Ava hurried down the s

    Chapter 81Ava was so excited after seeing Leo that she almost pounced on him. But remembering that she was pregnant, she slowed down in her movement.She approached the bed as she slowly asked, “Honey, how comes you are here and how did you enter my bedroom?”Leo looked at Ava and frowned. He saw how Ava was coming to him fast after switching on the lights, but seeing her slow down in her movements, he felt as if something was wrong.Her face was also pale and she did not look well. Leo’s expression sank. Had they really been mistreating his wife? He felt the urge to destroy everything in this castle.He immediately got off the bed and approached her. Seeing his change in expression, Ava did not know what she had done wrong, so she instinctively took a step back.“Honey, is something the matter?”“Have they been mistreating you badly?” Leo asked. His voice was laced with a tinge of anger that Ava did not fail to miss.“No. No one has mistreated me and my grandmother has been especial

    Chapter 80Samantha spent most of her day in Ava’s room. It was like she was glued to this granddaughter that she had just met.“This used to be your mother’s room, and she always did the decorations all by herself.”Ava looked at the room as a nostalgic feeling welled up in her throat, “I thought that it looked familiar, and now I know why.”“Huh?”“My room back in the city was decorated in the exact same way, and it was my mother who did it.”“How was she as a mother?”“She died when I was very young and my memories of her have somehow faded. But she was the gentlest woman I have ever known. And the most loving, of course.”“I wish that I had been bold back then and stood up for my daughter. None of this would have happened.”Ava hugged the older woman on the arm as she consoled, “It is okay, grandma. I am sure that even in her death, mom never really blamed you. She had already forgiven you.”“Really?”“Yes.”Samantha felt as if a load had been taken off her shoulders and the guilt

    Chapter 79When Ava arrived at the castle, she was surprised by how big and beautiful it was, but she was not in the mood to be impressed.Since she was here, she did not know if they would continue to restrict her, but she had to find a way to get in touch with Leo no matter what.Karl looked at Ava’s indifferent expression and he was impressed. Even he himself had not been so calm when he first set his foot in this place.Maybe she really did not feel anything because this was not her home.But her indifferent expression made him fall for her even more. If it was someone else, maybe they could have shown an excited expression and they would have been reluctant to leave. But to her, it was like she could not wait to get out of this place.When Samantha heard that her granddaughter was already here, she was too excited that she immediately went to wait at the door. Lucy also joined her. She was eager to see this cousin of hers that everyone was fawning over.As the number one socialit
