“Miss Mendez, you’re being naive if you think you can escape the truth.”Madeline's calm voice entered Naya's ears faintly.Naya suddenly opened her eyes that were pretending to be tired. Her expression became more and more unpleasant.“Naya, you don't have to face this video now, but I can still show it to everyone here. Once they’ve seen it, I’ll upload it online for all the netizens to watch.”Naya and Chloe stopped in their tracks at the same time.Before they could come back to their senses and look back, they heard a mean and provocative voice of a woman coming from the tablet.Naya was all too familiar with this voice because that was her voice!“Gosh…”Those reporters who witnessed the truth could not help but sigh.“It turned out that Naya was the one who took action first.”“If I were Ava, I would definitely fight back too! Who told her to splash coffee first?”“Tsk, you’re not 100 percent in the right even if you’re the one who released videographic evidence first
When she saw the deep smile on Madeline's face, Chloe's expression gradually became rigid.She had a feeling that the person Madeline was going to mention might be someone she knew.However, Chloe still refused to admit that the incident was real.“This video must’ve been edited and the person you mentioned doesn’t exist!”Chloe was still insisting and quibbling. She turned her head and saw Naya looking like she was in a trance, so she took Naya's hand.“Naya, let's go. Don't waste your breath on these people. They came prepared!”Right now, Naya just wanted to get rid of the problems in front of her so she wanted to take advantage of the situation and go with Chloe. However, the media would not let this happen now.“Aren’t you going to explain this, Miss Mendez?”“The two women in this video are clearly both of you and it doesn’t look like it was edited. Don't you have any explanation for this?”“What explanation? I just told you that this video is edited! It's fake!” Chloe w
“Naya isn’t the victim. She’s the perpetrator who joined forces with another party to frame Miss Long.” A woman's voice came through the crowd.Naya and Chloe were stunned for a moment. The others also looked over and saw a petite girl who seemed like a college student walking over with a serious expression.“Who are you? How dare you lie about us like this? Did Eveline hire you to put on an act here?” Chloe looked at the girl questioningly.When the girl heard what Chloe said, her eyes became more desolate and disappointed.However, soon after, the girl took a deep breath to adjust her emotions.“I don't know who Eveline is at all. I only know that I became a huge fan of you this year. No, I should say that I became a fan of the persona you created for the internet. I really regret it. How could I like a person like you?”“...”After the girl finished talking, Chloe seemed to freeze in an instant. She was completely dumbfounded.It turned out that the girl in front of her was
A wicked cold light flashed across Chloe's eyes.Naya was stunned for a moment. She wanted to say something but stopped herself. Then, she picked up the coffee cup in front of her and took a sip. In the blink of an eye, she seemed to have made up her mind.After the truth of this incident was completely exposed, Ava also returned to her normal life.Upon learning the situation, Reagan could breathe a sigh of relief as well. She wanted to comfort Ava too, but she did not dare to approach Ava recklessly.On that note, Chloe and Naya made Ava suffer so many grievances and caused others to doubt her. Raegan took these personally.She got someone to shut out Chloe, and as for Naya, Raegan naturally would not allow her to continue to be so free and easy.Naya originally thought that this incident would slowly pass and no one would remember how she and Chloe had teamed up to frame Ava. After all, the netizens were very forgetful.However, she did not expect that as soon as she went o
How could she swallow this anger?When Chloe saw that Naya's emotions had been triggered, she started to incite her, though it was seemingly done out of kindness.“Naya, we’re good friends, after all. You’ve always taken care of me so much. I really can’t stand seeing you be bullied like this. Do you remember what I told you the last time in the cafe? Do you really want to watch the man who originally belonged to you marry and have children with another woman?”“Of course, I don't want such a day to come!” Naya almost roared, her eyes widening viciously as her breathing grew heavy.“You were right last time. When a person's existence hinders one's life, then that person is better off disappearing from this world.”Naya's eyes became sinister and vicious for a moment. After a while, she stabilized her emotions and seemed to ask calmly.“Will your plan work?”“It’ll definitely work. Even if something happens, it’ll have nothing to do with us,” Chloe swore, but Naya still had some
At this moment, Ava was nestled in Daniel’s arms in her apartment. They were watching a movie that was playing on the projector screen in front of them.They rarely had the weekend together so they originally planned to go out and have a stroll to relax, but it happened to be raining lightly today.In addition to it being the transition period from late winter to early spring, it was extremely cold and humid outside. Hence, they chose to seek warmth from each other and watch a movie in the apartment instead. They had also asked Madeline and Jeremy to come over for dinner in the evening. The timing would be just right if they started cooking after finishing the movie. However, as Ava was watching the movie, her mind wandered slightly.She went to Graham Manor with Daniel two days ago, and once again, she could clearly feel the change in Daniel's mother's attitude toward herself.In the past, she would ignore Ava and roll her eyes at her with disgust. Now, she would greet Ava warml
About half an hour later, Madeline and Jeremy arrived.Seeing that Madeline had brought fruits and her homemade dessert, Ava pretended to be depressed. “Maddie, If I knew you would bring fruits and desserts, I wouldn't have asked Danny to go out to buy them.”“What? Do you feel bad that your future husband is outside in such cold weather?” Madeline teased while helping Ava prepare dinner.Ava was used to it and she admitted, saying, “Yes, of course. I feel bad since it’s so cold out there. You’d feel the same way if it was your man.” It was an open concept kitchen, so Madeline glanced at Jeremy, who was sitting on the sofa watching the projector screen while eating fruits. She said indifferently, “He and I have been married for so long. How would we be as sentimental as you two?”“Married for so long, huh? You’re not any less sweet than those young couples fresh in love,” Ava replied with a smile and subconsciously looked at the time. “I'll give Danny a call.”Ava wiped her han
“Ava!”Madeline shouted in Ava's direction, but Ava had already rushed into the crowd.Jeremy looked curiously at Ava who was suddenly behaving frantically and came up with a possibility in his mind. He was about to speak when Madeline hurriedly opened the door and followed.He did not think much before he rushed out of the car to chase after Madeline.There were many people in front of her, so Ava pushed the crowd away and came to the front. When she saw the familiar vehicle, her blood seemed to be chilled by the cold wind. The bright red scene in front of her turned dark gray in her eyes.She collapsed to the ground limply almost instantly.The people around her were puzzled. They all thought that Ava was frightened by the scene of the car accident.Madeline could smell the blood before she even got close. Her heartbeat gradually became uneasy too. When she saw the car in front of her that had gotten into an accident, she was stunned.This was Ava's car. She was not mistaken.
Gina, who was standing at the door, saw this scene and was about to walk in when she was stopped by her husband.“Stop causing more trouble. Do you really want your son to be a bachelor for the rest of his life?”“Who said I'm going to make trouble? I’m going to tell them that I agree to this marriage now, okay?”Her husband was startled. “You’re agreeing to this?”Gina was about to answer when out of the corners of her eyes, she suddenly caught a glimpse of the lights in the room. It was followed by cheers and applause from inside.Ava pulled herself out of Daniel's embrace. She was surprised to find Madeline and Jeremy, her parents, and even Tom and Maisie slowly approaching them with smiles on their faces.Ava stared blankly at Madeline. Then, she finally understood that they had all worked together to arrange this.Only she and Daniel’s parents were kept in the dark.Daniel had never thought of leaving her at all. He just used a different approach to let her know that she w
Upon hearing this, Gina slowly stopped.She never thought that Ava still had some respect for her in her heart.This really surprised her.However, she soon heard Madeline stand up for Ava. “Ava, you respect them, but have they ever respected you? Respect should be mutual.”“But Danny will always be their son. If Dan and I insist on getting married, his parents won’t be happy about it for the rest of their lives,” Ava said with a helpless sigh. “I really don't want Dan to be caught in the middle of this matter.”“But Ava…”“Maddie, don't persuade me. You should know best that when you truly love someone, you don't have to stay with them. As long as they’re safe, healthy, and happy, that's enough, isn't it?”There was a smile of relief on Ava's face as if she had already made a final decision in her heart.Madeline wanted to persuade her a little more, but nothing seemed appropriate at this moment.“Ava, are you leaving, then? Are you going to stop looking for him now?”“I've
Daniel's parents, who were secretly observing Ava in the distance, gradually became more and more restless in the car.“Hmph, how dare she say that she has a deep relationship with Dan? It's been so long and she still doesn't know where Dan has gone,” Gina rolled her eyes and complained.Daniel's father glanced at Gina. “Stop being so mean. Right now, the most important thing is to find Dan. Ava isn’t a bad person. In the beginning, you disliked her because she didn’t have parents, money, and power. Now, her parents are alive and well, her mother is extremely rich, and her father is a specialist doctor and professor. What else are you dissatisfied with? Do you really want your son to stay single his entire life?”Gina was not happy when her husband was complaining about her. “Didn't you object at the beginning as well? I agreed with the relationship after that, but your father refused to agree to save his reputation. Why are you blaming me now?”“Stop talking.” Daniel's father in
After Old Master Graham read Daniel's message, he was so angry that his eyes were wide open.‘He just got out of the hospital and he ran away for a woman?‘He even said that if he can't marry that woman, he won't get married in the future?’Old Master Graham would never allow such a thing to happen.However, when he thought about it, he still felt a little nervous.If Daniel really did not get married because of this, would this not be the end of the Graham family?‘I can’t let this happen.’After Ava ran out, she went to find Daniel in all the places she could think of. However, after spending the entire morning, she still could not find Daniel.She tried to call Daniel, and although the call was connected, it was always unanswered.As time passed, Ava felt very tired. She sat down on the chair by the roadside and watched the street where people came and went. Then, a deep sense of loss welled up from the bottom of her heart.‘Dan, have you decided to just give up?‘Are we
“I'll be right back!”Gina hurriedly ran back. Suddenly, she turned back and stopped Ava, who was about to follow her.“Don’t follow me! You’re not welcomed at our house.”Despite Gina's warning, Ava could not stop herself from looking for Daniel.She did not know what was going on. How could Daniel suddenly be discharged by himself? He had obviously been in a coma on the hospital bed. He did not wake up this whole time.On the way there, Ava called Daniel, but Daniel did not answer.Ava did not know if Daniel had his phone with him, but in short, she could not get into contact with him.She wanted so badly to stand in front of Daniel right now, but there was traffic on the way.When Ava followed Gina into the door of Graham Manor, she heard Gina's sharp voice. “What? Dan’s gone? Where did he go? D-Didn't he just wake up? What the hell is going on?”“Look at this and you'll know what's going on." Daniel's father sounded like he was reproaching someone, then he seemed to hand s
Ava stared at the empty ward for a while. Then, she returned to her senses and immediately went to look for Daniel.However, after looking around for a while, Ava could not find Daniel, which made her feel a little nervous.At this time, Gina also came in.She saw that the ward was empty, and Daniel, who was supposed to be lying on the hospital bed, had disappeared.“What’s going on? Where’s Dan? Did the doctor take Dan away?” Gina looked at Ava and asked with an unfriendly expression on her face.Ava was used to Gina's attitude, so she did not bother to argue with Gina. Instead, she replied, “I want to know as well.”“How could you not know? You came before me.”“Dan wasn't in the ward when I came,” Ava said and turned around. “I'll go to the nurse's station and ask.”“Wait.”Gina grabbed Ava, her face was dark.“Ava, let me tell you this. Dan has suffered a lot and gotten a lot of injuries because of you. Because of you, both Naya and her mother have been sent to prison. It
Since Julie was about to think that way, it showed that she was a reasonable person.“Lily.” Julie walked up to Lillian and squatted down, giving her a friendly blessing. “Lily, I really like you. I hope you can be happy every day, and I hope you’ll be able to speak soon.”Lillian was a sensible child. She raised a sweet smile and nodded vigorously, indicating that she acknowledged Julie's blessing.Julie stood up and faced Fabian. Right now, there was a little more admiration in her eyes and a little less of her unwilling persistence before.If one liked someone, one did not necessarily have to stubbornly fight for it.Julie did not say anything and just smiled at Fabian.Fabian did not say anything more either. He bent over and picked Lillian up in his arms. Before turning around, he gave Julie a friendly smile.“Miss Charles, you can still come to me if you need help in the future. After all, I still owe you a favor.”Julie smiled and shook her head. “You stopped owing me an
“I did,” Fabian admitted frankly.Julie thought she would feel embarrassed because of this, but she did not know why she still felt very relaxed. Even so, she still felt a little embarrassed.In order to not make Julie feel embarrassed, Fabian smiled and said, “I wanted to help you get out of that situation, Miss Charles, but I didn't want to cross the line. I also didn’t expect someone to have taken a video and put it on the internet. Lily and I have caused you much trouble. I'm really sorry about that.”Fabian paused as he spoke, then, he glanced at Lillian softly.“But Miss Charles, rest assured, there’ll be no such trouble in the future.”Julie was stunned for a moment when she heard the words, and she inexplicably felt a strong sense of loss coming up from the bottom of her heart.She looked at Fabian suspiciously, and sure enough, the words she heard next made her feel remorseful.“Miss Charles, I’ve found a more suitable school for Lily, and it’s closer to where I work so
The scene of Mr. Martinez causing a ruckus and Fabian coming to the rescue with Lillian at the end was all recorded and posted on the internet.This person was still a little conscientious and had censored Lillian's appearance, but Fabian's figure and face were clearly visible in the video.Patty recognized the person in the video as Fabian at a glance.After seeing the comments below, Patty was even more anxious.“Julie, how could you fall in love with a single father?”Julie frowned. “Yes, I won't deny it. I do have a crush on Mr. Johnson.”“What?”“Tsk tsk… Julie, do you really like this single father?” The look in Mrs. Gill's eyes was very subtle. “Someone dug up all his information, and it turns out that this man is Yorick's younger brother. Back then, Yorick stirred up all kinds of troubles and did whatever he wanted in F Country. His sister, Lana, was also notorious in our circle.”“What? He's Yorick and Lana's younger brother?” Patty was even more nervous, for fear that
