Naya's attitude was extremely bad. After speaking, she turned around and wanted to close the door, leaving Ava standing outside. Ava did not bother to argue with Naya. She raised her hand and patted the door lightly.“Wait.”Naya frowned impatiently. “Ava, stop humiliating yourself. You—”“Naya, you don't want to see me, and I hate seeing people like you too. But I think we have a common goal, and that’s Danny’s speedy recovery.” Ava's expression was calm and indifferent. Her tone was calm as well.Her eyes flicked across Naya's puzzled face, trying to catch a glimpse of Daniel in the ward. However, her view was blocked by Naya.Ava did not feel much about Naya’s dirty tricks, but at the same time, she did not want to talk too much nonsense with such people.She retracted her hand and slowly handed the thermos in her hand.“I learned from the doctor that Danny can have some soup. This is the chicken soup I made for Danny in the morning. It is very nourishing and will help Da
Ava pursed her lips and heard criticisms from all around her.She slowly loosened her clenched fists. Then, she found cleaning tools to clean up the chicken soup that had spilled all over the place before leaving.Half a month passed.The weather had also turned a lot warmer. It was spring, so flowers were blooming. Everything looked vibrant in this season.For more than half a month, Ava had not been able to see Daniel even once. Today, she heard the news that Daniel was going to be discharged from the hospital. Ava hurriedly got up in the morning to wash up and dressed up nicely, hoping that Daniel could remember her now.Madeline drove Ava to the hospital. As soon as they arrived at the gate, they saw Daniel's mother and Naya beside Daniel. They were walking toward the MPV parked in front of the gate.Under the sun, Daniel's warm and gentle face looked to be in good spirits. Although he had not fully recovered, Ava was very happy at the progress he had made.She picked up the
“Danny.”Ava raised a slight smile while calling out Daniel's name affectionately and naturally.Daniel looked at this warm and gentle smile, a subtle feeling quietly surging in his heart.He did not know how to describe this feeling, but when he looked at Ava's smile, he felt very comfortable and motivated.“Dan, hurry up. Get in the car so we can go home. Don't make Naya wait too long.” Daniel's mother urged impatiently from in front of them.Daniel glanced sideways at his mother, indicating that he understood. Then, he turned his head to meet Ava's gaze again.“I’ve forgotten a lot of things.” Daniel parted his lips, and his tone was very gentle. “The only thing I remember now is my name. They showed me some photos and videos. They also told me some things. To avoid unnecessary trouble, I think you should not come look for me for the time being.”After Daniel said these words, the wind threatened to blow away the smile on Ava’s face. Even so, she maintained her graceful smile
Daniel nodded lightly as if to show his agreement. However, the sight of Ava’s carefree back view lingered in his mind.After Ava followed Madeline into the car, the smile on her face no longer remained.In fact, she was not free and easy at all. She was just forcing herself to be brave.Madeline also understood what Ava was thinking now. Although she had some suggestions, she still respected Ava's thoughts more.Ava knew that she could not do anything right now. Daniel's mother and Naya were colluding together. It was not easy for her to deal with them. She could go head-on with Naya, but Daniel's mother was his mother, after all. She had the right to control her son, but what about her?She was originally his fiancée, but Daniel could not remember her now. What did that make her?Not long after, Ava got out of the car at the side of the road. Madeline was worried to leave Ava on her own, but Ava insisted on being alone. Hence, Madeline could only leave first.Ava walked aimles
Hearing that Ava wanted her help on something, it was exactly what Raegan wanted.“Ava, just tell me what it is. I’ll help you as long as it’s within my ability.”Ava looked around. “Let's find a place to sit and talk.”Raegan’s gaze shifted. “There's a very suitable place nearby. Ava, come with me.”Raegan said and led the way. Ava followed Raegan into the car without hesitation.After driving for about five or six minutes, the car stopped downstairs at one of the high-end residential areas.Ava was also no stranger to this area as it was not very far from where she worked. She then remembered that Raegan had told her earlier that she bought a unit near her company for her. Hence, the apartment building in front of her was probably the unit Raegan mentioned.Of course, Ava did not ask. She had never thought of asking for anything from Raegan, and she also knew that Raegan was trying her best to make up for the damage she caused her in different ways.When the elevator reached t
After suppressing her joy as much as possible, Ava looked at Raegan gratefully. “Thank you.”“Ava, you never have to thank me.” Raegan's eyes were filled with nothing but warm motherly love.Ava's heart warmed as she felt the sincere concern from Raegan. Hence, she did not say any more words of thanks.She did not leave right away and followed Raegan around the apartment instead.This apartment was large, being almost 2,000 square feet. There was a balcony surrounded by various flowers. When there was a breeze, one would be able to smell the fragrance of flowers.Ava was an interior designer, so she knew the housing prices in this area very well. The unit that Raegan wanted to give her was probably almost nine figures.Before she knew it, it was almost evening.Raegan was very happy. Not only did Ava not leave, but she also went to the vegetable market with her. Ava also washed the vegetables and cooked with her. Raegan had never dared to imagine such a scene.As the sun set, a
After finishing her work for the day, Ava packed up and was ready to head to the apartment.As soon as she left the entrance of the company, a car drove up in front of her. After the window was rolled down, she saw Tom raising a very gentlemanly smile at her.“Where to? Let me send you.” Tom was very polite.Ava was stunned for a moment. Although Tom, her boss, was very friendly, he was still her boss. It would be a little uneasy for her to hitch a ride from her boss. When Ava was about to refuse after thinking about it, Tom unexpectedly got out of the car and helped Ava open the door to the passenger seat.“Get in the car. I'll drive you.”“...”Ava did not know how to refuse Tom’s direct behavior for a moment.“Actually, you don't need to feel uneasy. I know where you're going, and I'm about to go there as well. It’s more convenient like this.”Tom's explanation surprised Ava.“You know where I'm going?”“Uh-huh.” Tom gave a meaningful smile and motioned Ava to get in th
Ava looked at the man, and for some reason, she felt a familiar feeling when she looked at him.The man seemed to be stunned when he saw Ava. However, he quickly looked away and walked toward Tom. “Tom, it's really you. Why are you here?”“Dr. Long, long time no see. I’m here because I sent a friend here. What about you? When did you return to Glendale?” Tom asked with a smile.Upon hearing the words, the man glanced at Ava meaningfully. “Friend? Don’t you mean girlfriend? You sure have a good eye, Tom.” “Dr. Long, you’ve misunderstood. She’s really not my girlfriend,” Tom explained seriously. Then, he lowered his eyes and glanced at the time. “I need to take care of some things, so I need to head off. Let me treat you to a meal in a few days, Doctor. We’ll keep in touch.”The man nodded. “Yes, let’s.”Tom did not say anything else and quickly drove away.People were walking back and forth along the road, but Ava felt a little awkward for some reason.When she saw the doctor
