Naya was stunned for a second. Then, she turned to look at the police, her heart pounding.Madeline also followed the source of the sound and could probably guess what was going on. However, Ava did not care about Naya at all. Her eyes and thoughts were all on Daniel.Although Naya was very nervous, she knew that she could not panic.“I'm Naya Mendez.” Naya walked over, pretending to have a clear conscience. “May I help you, officers?”“We’ve found the person who broke into Miss Long's vehicle that day. The other party is a gangster who idles his time away. What he said is almost the same as what Chloe Tawney said,” the police officer said directly.After he said that, Madeline’s and Ava’s expressions changed at the same time.They found the man who tampered with the car?Naya's face flashed with panic, but she pretended to be calm as she said, “It’s good that you’ve arrested him. You should go find that man. Why did you come to me?”“We want to ask you to assist in the investi
Ava went back to Daniel’s side sadly. Madeline was worried that Ava would waste time dwelling on insoluble problems again, so she decided to stay by Ava's side. At the same time, she also sent a message to Jeremy.Jeremy received a message from Madeline just after sending their son to school. After taking a look, he immediately called the relevant personnel to find out what had happened.After learning about the situation, he immediately replied to Madeline’s message.After seeing Jeremy's reply, Madeline had a bold guess in her heart.In the police car.Naya suppressed the panic in her heart and remained calm on the surface.She really wanted to know what the police wanted her help on. However, she was afraid that if she asked too much, the police would suspect something. Hence, she kept silent.However, the events of that day popped up in her mind involuntarily…That day, she received a message from Chloe saying that she had gotten someone to tamper with Ava’s car.On that d
After driving there, Naya was a little hesitant as she sat in the car. However, since she was here, how could she go back at this time?Hence, she had to go.After Naya thought about it, she got out of the car and walked straight toward one of the parking spaces.On that day, she did not think that she was photographed by anyone or captured by any surveillance cameras. However, she was not so sure anymore. It was because the police had approached her for questioning. The reason why the police did this must be that they had some evidence.When she thought of this, Naya's heartbeat became unstable.She could not escape from this, so she had to go back to the crime scene to see if there was any evidence left behind that could be used against her. However, Naya's footsteps suddenly stopped. From a distance, she seemed to see a familiar figure hovering near the parking space in front.Naya stopped abruptly and stepped back to the edge of the pillar.She was not mistaken. The woma
“It’s reliable.” Jeremy assured. “The man who broke into Ava's car didn't do anything to the car. After he went back, he showed off to his group of friends that he received money after he got into the car and put on a show. That night, he used that money to go to the bar to have a good time. He spent all of the money in one night.“That said, he did not lie and the police even did a polygraph test on him. He passed the test. It seems that someone else tampered with Ava’s car.”Madeline lifted the thing she just picked up. “That person is most likely the person who left this object.”“I think so too.” Jeremy agreed. He raised his eyes and looked around. “Unfortunately, this is a blind spot for the surveillance cameras. And the police have investigated everything they could. Linnie, let’s go back.”Jeremy's words reassured Naya.The absence of surveillance footage was to her advantage.However, before she could feel happy for a few more seconds, she suddenly heard that Madeline see
Raegan's heart ached. She did not think much before she went straight to Ava's side and sat down.“Ava,” Raegan called Ava’s name affectionately, reaching for a tissue.Ava looked at the tissue through the tears in her eyes. She did not speak and just quietly took the tissue. She quickly wiped the tears off her face and continued to eat the buns.She tried to pretend to be nonchalant, but her tears kept falling.Raegan’s heart ached as she saw this.“Ava, do you want…”“Can you go out first?” Ava finally said, but the words turned Raegan's heart cold.However, she would not refuse Ava’s request.“I'll just be outside. You can call me if you need anything.” Raegan turned around after saying this.When she was closing the door, Raegan could not help but steal a few glances at Ava.After Ava saw Raegan go out, tears poured out from her eyes. Even so, she still did not dare to be too loud. She did not want to disturb the sleeping Daniel even though she knew that it was unlikely f
Ava, who was crying while eating the buns, immediately put down the buns when she heard the noise. She wiped away her tears.Although Ava moved quickly, Naya still spotted her wiping away her tears.Naya snickered and sneered.“Only you and your mother would use despicable means just so you can have Dan all to yourself.”Ava sorted her emotions and glanced at Naya indifferently. She was not in the mood to argue with Naya. Plus, it was reasonable for Daniel's mother to want to see Daniel, so Ava thought about going out first to avoid unnecessary trouble.However, just as Ava was about to turn around, she heard Naya's disdainful rant from behind. “Mrs. Graham, look. Dan isn’t waking up at all, unlike what the doctor said. The doctor only followed someone’s instructions and said that on purpose so that a certain someone can stay by Dan's side alone.”Daniel's mother heard this and looked at Daniel's haggard and pale face. She felt both uncomfortable and dissatisfied. Out of the corn
Raegan knew that she heard it right, but when the word left Ava’s mouth, Raegan felt like she was dreaming.“Mom,” she said.To Raegan, that word felt like a dream.While Raegan was still in a daze, Ava spoke again.“I'm really thankful for you. Thank you for taking care of me and Danny all this while. I thank you from the bottom of my heart.”Ava's attitude was sincere.Raegan felt tears sting the corners of her eyes. She was a calm person, but right now, she was so excited that she could not even say a word.“T-This is what I should do,” Raegan stammered a little when she spoke, her overly excited emotions making her beating heart tremble even more.“Ava, are you willing to forgive me?” Raegan could not help asking after a while.Ava looked at Raegan's hopeful eyes and lowered her eyes in disappointment.“There's nothing to be forgiven. I just know that seeing you at this moment makes me feel at ease.” Ava expressed her true feelings.Raegan was very satisfied despite not
Naya was standing behind the door of the ward. Upon seeing the scene outside the door through the small window, she rolled her eyes unhappily. Unexpectedly, her provocation just now had led to Ava and Raegan’s reconciliation.This was beyond her expectation.Naya gritted her teeth and looked back at Daniel, who was unresponsive on the hospital bed. She felt distressed and also irritable.‘Please don't blame me, Dan.‘I didn't mean to hurt you. If you want to blame someone, blame Ava.‘We were childhood sweethearts and we’re a match made in heaven. It was Ava, an outsider, who suddenly intervened in our relationship.‘If it weren’t for this woman, I believe we would have already gotten married.‘Ava should have died. You’re supposed to be safe and sound.’“Sigh, I wonder when Dan will wake up. It's been so many days and he's still like this.”Naya came back to her senses when she heard Mrs. Graham’s worries. Then, she put on her good girl act and walked over to comfort her.
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
