Madeline consoled her, knowing that Ava must be brooding over what Naya said not long ago.“Ava, you mustn't be influenced by what Naya said. The person at fault is the person who tampered with the car.”After hearing what Madeline said, Ava started to cry even harder.“Actually, what she said isn’t completely wrong. If I were the one who went out and not Dan, the person lying inside now would be me. It was Dan who saved me from this disaster.”Ava raised her tearful eyes slightly. She tried her best to look at the man lying on the hospital bed through her blurred vision but she could not seem to see clearly.Daniel’s body was wrapped in a lot of gauzes, including his face and head. Ava could not stop her tears when she looked at Daniel in this state.Madeline took out a tissue and wiped Ava's tears. She kept saying comforting words to Ava again and again, but she knew it was useless. Ava would only feel better if Daniel's condition improved.After Madeline wiped Ava's tears,
She immediately felt uneasy. Daniel's mother knew very well that no matter what, Ava would definitely stay by Daniel’s side. Now that they were both gone, it was very likely that something bad had happened to Daniel. Sure enough, Daniel's mother stopped a nurse and learned that Daniel’s situation suddenly had a bad turn. He was in the emergency room at the moment.Daniel's mother immediately felt tense and rushed to the emergency room. From afar, she spotted Ava, Madeline, and Jeremy waiting at the door with heavy expressions on their faces.“What’s going on? What happened? What's wrong with Dan?” Daniel's mother asked loudly as she quickly walked toward the emergency room.Madeline raised her eyes when she heard the noise. When she saw Daniel's mother in a hurry, Madeline subconsciously moved in front of Ava and said coldly.“There was a fluctuation in the machine’s reading just now. The doctor is now inside giving Dan a detailed diagnosis and treatment. The specific situation i
Madeline did not expect Raegan to suddenly appear. Ava, who was sitting in the corner, gave a small reaction too. However, her brows seemed to furrow even tighter now.Naya was stunned for a moment.She widened her eyes in disbelief as she looked at Raegan in front of her.What did this woman say she was?A poorly educated degenerate? A degenerate!She was a dignified young lady who grew up in a life of luxury. She had always been a delicate princess with an extraordinary status, but now, she was called a degenerate!Raegan probably read Naya's thoughts from her conflicted and angry expression, but Raegan did not change her mind.“Did you hear what I said? Miss Degenerate, please apologize to my daughter right away.”Raegan repeated herself and directly called Naya ‘Miss Degenerate’.Naya was really frustrated now. “How dare you call me that? Do you think you’re all that just because you have money? Do you think you can bully others just because you have money?”Raegan smiled
“...”Daniel’s mother was still confident, but when she was called out by Raegan like that, she immediately felt ashamed. At the same time, she did not want to lose as well.“Hmph!” Daniel’s mother huffed. “Respect? Your daughter is the one who threw herself at my son. She doesn’t respect herself, so why should I respect her? Plus, the Grahams are a reputable family in Glendale. So what if I want to find a daughter-in-law who’s a suitable match with my family?”After Daniel's mother said that, Raegan and Madeline were fuming. However, Ava just had a sarcastic smile on her lips. “Mrs. Graham, your words are so awful. What do you mean Ava threw herself at your son? How could you describe the person your son loves like that? Plus, Dan was the one who stopped her when she wanted to leave. That’s why she agreed to stay. I was there and saw everything with my own eyes.”Madeline emphasized, her gaze sharp and piercing.“It’s a harmonious relationship where both sides love each other,
“Don’t worry, Ms. Xander. I believe that your son-in-law will definitely wake up.”The doctor promised confidently.“He has a very strong will to live. We believe it’s only a matter of time before he’ll wake up. You can just wait patiently. Tell your daughter to stay by his side. We believe that after some time, he’ll wake up.”When Ava heard the doctor saying that Daniel would wake up soon, a pleased smile broke out of her face.“Really? Doctor, are you telling the truth?” Ava asked excitedly. She had been staying silent for a long time but she finally said something now.The doctor smiled and nodded at her. “I believe so. May I know who you are?”“She’s the patient’s fiance,” Madeline answered for Ava.The doctor nodded as a look of surprise appeared on their faces. “I see. You’re Ms. Xander’s daughter. Then, you have to stay by your fiance’s side. With your company and encouragement, I believe he’ll wake up very soon.”After she got the doctor’s affirmative answer, Ava almos
“What an idiot to be unable to recognize others' good intentions or differentiate right and wrong.”Raegan retorted back without holding back. Her sharp gaze landed on Naya and Daniel’s mother’s face like knives.“I can tell you with confidence that if I hadn’t hired this doctor last night, Daniel’s condition would never have been able to turn for the better so quickly. And the reason I did that is all because of my daughter, but you’re saying all those things without shame. I’ll say this one last time. If you don’t want something bad to happen to Daniel, don’t offend my daughter. Otherwise, you’ll be crying for a long time.”Raegan warned, then looked at the absent-minded Ava with very gentle eyes. Finally, she turned around and left.The expressions of Daniel’s mother and Naya fell. They wanted to vent their anger but they could only glare at Ava. Finally, the two of them left resentfully.Ava did not care about the attitudes of Daniel’s mother or Naya. She did not notice that t
Raegan thought she was hearing things, but then she heard Ava’s footsteps approaching her.She slowly turned around and saw that Ava was almost in front of her.Ava looked into Raegan’s eyes. She seemed lost for a moment. Raegan seemed to be waiting to hear what Ava wanted to say next.The cold wind swept against their faces again and again, but they seemed to be unable to feel it.Under the starry night sky, Ava finally relaxed her tightly clenched hands after some time.“Thank you.”Ava said those two words.The expectant look in Raegan’s eyes dissipated slowly. Then, her eyes lit up again. “It’s cold outside. Go back in.”Raegan replied with a smile. Ava looked at Raegan blankly for two seconds before she turned around and walked to the entrance of the hospital.Raegan stood where she was as she watched Ava’s figure that was walking away. There was a faint smile on her lips.After Naya went back with Daniel’s mother, she did not forget to drive a wedge between Ava and Dani
Naya was a little flustered when she heard Madeline mention the police, but she pretended to be calm. “What do you mean, Mrs. Whitman?”“I mean…”Before Madeline finished speaking, Naya's cell phone rang. She glanced at the caller ID and frowned. Then, she ended the call and muttered, “Why are there so many harassments calls lately? It’s so annoying.”After she complained, she did not continue to pay attention to Madeline. She pushed the door into the hospital ward.Ava was feeling a little sleep when she was suddenly awakened by the sound of the door opening. When she raised her drowsy eyes and saw that the person who came in was Naya, she immediately stood up vigilantly.“Why are you still here?”“Ava,” Madeline walked in and called out to Ava.A small smile crept across Ava's vigilant face. “Maddie, you're here.”“Yeah, I brought you breakfast. I made it myself. You should eat first and take a rest.”Ava smiled and nodded. Then, she took the breakfast from Madeline and walk
