Ava's answer shocked Raegan and Neil.โAm I right?โ Ava spoke again, looking at the two dazed people in front of her.Raegan was quick to come back to her senses and quickly put down the fork in her hand. โAva, thisโโโBack then, you two colluded to deceive me. You left me alone next to the stall selling churros and never returned. Today, both of you are still working together to deceive me again.โ Ava said with a sarcastic bitter smile on the corners of her lips.โDo you really think of me as your daughter?โWhen Ava asked this, her eyes were full of disappointment.Raegan and Neil stood up nervously. โAva, we didn't mean to lie to you. It's becauseโโโBecause youโre afraid that if I know heโs my irresponsible father from back then, Iโll reject and refuse to acknowledge him, right?โAva interrupted Raegan and asked coldly. Then, she laughed.โDon't worry, I won't reject him. Itโs a rare chance for Dr. Long to examine Dan, and thatโs all I want. But other than that, thereโs
Ava laughed self-deprecatingly again, tears slipping silently from the corners of her eyes.Madeline looked very distressed. She wanted to comfort Ava, but then she heard Ava sarcastically saying, โMy parents are both so capable. How great of them! But I canโt even see my boyfriend. Itโs ridiculous, so ridiculousโฆโWhile talking, Ava picked up the glass again and wanted to drink.Madeline hurriedly reached out her hand to stop her. โAva, stop drinking. Drinking too much will hurt your health.โโBut I'm so sad nowโฆโ Ava cried out, โMaddie, have a drink with me. I want to forget those unhappy things for a while.โAfter hearing what Ava said, Madeline's heart ached. Then, she slowly let go.Sometimes, drinking was not necessarily a bad thing. At least, it could make people forget all their troubles temporarily. It was not a bad thing.She had stopped breastfeeding her son, so Madeline raised the glass with confidence.Just before drinking, she messaged Jeremy.Ava was in a very b
Madeline glanced at the clock on the nightstand. โUm, it's almost noon.โโWhat? It's so late? Oh no!โ Ava seemed to be refreshed all of a sudden. She did not care about her headache anymore as she reached out and grabbed the clothes that Madeline was hanging over before running into the bathroom to take a shower.โAva, slow down. You just woke up.โ Madeline reminded her.โI know. I won't make you worry,โ Ava replied loudly.Madeline also turned around and went downstairs to prepare chicken soup and breakfast for Ava to sober up.After taking a shower, Ava looked a lot more energetic. Madeline then learned that Ava had asked Daniel to see a doctor today.The doctor was Ava's biological father, Neil.โI have to hurry up and look for Danny after eating. Danny should have left home by now. Maddie, can you drive me there in a while?โ Ava said while wolfing down her food.Madeline smiled lightly. โYou dummy. Of course, I'll take you there. Eat slowly and don't choke.โโI canโt. I ca
This voice that was filled with arrogance and haughtiness was all too familiar to Ava.Ava clenched her fist, knowing that her plan today was ruined. She took a deep breath, recomposed herself, and turned around with an indifferent face.Naya was dressed beautifully and carrying an expensive handbag. She stood in front of Ava arrogantly.โAva, this is the last time I'm warning you. Stop approaching my fiancรฉ again.โโHeh.โ Ava could not help sneering. โFiancรฉ? Naya, youโre so shameless.โAva immediately replied sarcastically, causing Naya's face to sink.โAva, youโฆโโWhat? Naya, you know exactly who Dan's fiancรฉe is. You're taking advantage of Dan's amnesia and you want to instill him with memories that arenโt true at all. Listen to me, it's useless. Sooner or later, Dan will remember everything.โAfter hearing this, Naya gritted her teeth in disapproval. However, the next second, she showed a sinister and smug smile again.โYes, you're right. Danโs memory loss wonโt last fo
After warning Madeline, Naya started to walk away without stopping. It was as if she was afraid that Madeline would see through her if she was any slower.However, Madeline already knew the truth. It was just that it was covered by a veil. โJudging from her arrogant appearance, I think sheโs quite sure that the thug who took the blame for her won't expose her.โ Ava walked over slowly.Madeline then turned around and handed the phone to Ava. โAva, you should call Dan first and ask where he is.โโI donโt think thatโs necessary anymore.โ Ava sighed with a smile. โNayaโs appearance means that Dan wonโt be able to meet me anymore. All of this is Naya's fault.โโIf thatโs the case, I think itโs necessary to find evidence of Naya's crime as soon as possible.โ Madeline's expression also became a little more serious. โThe previous evidence couldnโt be established because the thug who took Chloe's money suddenly pleaded guilty. It must mean that someone had talked to him.โAva seemed to h
Daniel's mother knew that something was up when she looked into Nayaโs eyes.โWhat do you have in mind?โ Daniel's mother asked curiously.Naya averted her gaze and made sure that Daniel had gone upstairs. She then got close to Daniel's mother and spoke in a low voice.โMrs. Graham, Dan thinks I'm engaged to him now, so we'll use this to our advantage and set a wedding date. As long as Dan and I are married, it's useless even if Ava makes a fuss.โAfter listening to Naya's suggestion, Daniel's mother seemed hesitant.She had her own plans in mind. The reason she agreed to let Daniel date Ava back then was because she knew that Ava's mother was the richest person in F Country.It was certainly a good thing to have a wealthy in-law.However, Daniel had gotten into a car accident, and with Old Master Graham's nagging, Daniel's mother had started to blame Ava again. In contrast, she felt that Naya was more suitable for Daniel.At least, relatively speaking, Naya was more obedient to
In the room, Raegan and Neil sat facing each other. They stared at the food on the table, but they did not start eating even after a long time.โAva must have heard everything we said here that day.โ Raegan broke the silence.Neil sighed lightly. โI think so too. Ava already knew that I was her biological father at the time. She didn't say anything because she probably didn't know how to face me.โAs he spoke, Neil met Raegan's gaze guiltily.โYour relationship with Ava had turned for the better, but my appearance has made your relationship stiff again. I really don't know what to do to ease the current situationโฆโโDon't blame yourself too much.โ Raegan comforted him. โAva is hard on the outside but soft on the inside. In fact, that child has a very kind heart. She usually looks like sheโs carefree, but sheโs extraordinarily attentive and gentle.โRaegan said with a tinge of pride on her face.โI'm really honored to have such a sensible, kind, hard-working, and motivated daught
Ava suddenly went straight to the topic. Raegan and Neil were frozen for a moment. After the two exchanged glances, they both lowered their eyes silently. They seemed to blame themselves and feel regretful over it, but at the same time, they did not know how to start explaining.Their reactions made Ava even more puzzled. โIโve been alone for so many years. Every time I saw other students being picked up by their parents when I went to school and came back, it puzzled me why my parents abandoned me.โ What Ava said made Raegan and Neil contemplate even more. They then fell into deeper remorse.โOver the years, I really hated you two and never had the thought of reconciling with you. Why did you abandon me when you wanted to and then acknowledge me again when you felt like it? I feel like a toy that comes and goes as you please.โโNo, Ava. How could that be? How can you be a toy? Youโre the apple of your fatherโs and my eyes,โ Raegan hurriedly explained. That strong woman who was a
Gina, who was standing at the door, saw this scene and was about to walk in when she was stopped by her husband.โStop causing more trouble. Do you really want your son to be a bachelor for the rest of his life?โโWho said I'm going to make trouble? Iโm going to tell them that I agree to this marriage now, okay?โHer husband was startled. โYouโre agreeing to this?โGina 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 Danielโs 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. โAva, you respect them, but have they ever respected you? Respect should be mutual.โโBut Danny will always be their son. If Dan and I insist on getting married, his parents wonโt be happy about it for the rest of their lives,โ Ava said with a helpless sigh. โI really don't want Dan to be caught in the middle of this matter.โโBut AvaโฆโโMaddie, 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 theyโre safe, healthy, and happy, that's enough, isn't it?โThere 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.โAva, are you leaving, then? Are you going to stop looking for him now?โโI've
Daniel's parents, who were secretly observing Ava in the distance, gradually became more and more restless in the car.โHmph, 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,โ Gina rolled her eyes and complained.Daniel's father glanced at Gina. โStop being so mean. Right now, the most important thing is to find Dan. Ava isnโt a bad person. In the beginning, you disliked her because she didnโt 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?โGina was not happy when her husband was complaining about her. โDidn'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?โโStop talking.โ Daniel's father in
After Old Master Graham read Daniel's message, he was so angry that his eyes were wide open.โHe just got out of the hospital and he ran away for a woman?โHe even said that if he can't marry that woman, he won't get married in the future?โOld 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?โI canโt let this happen.โAfter 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.โDan, have you decided to just give up?โAre we
โI'll be right back!โGina hurriedly ran back. Suddenly, she turned back and stopped Ava, who was about to follow her.โDonโt follow me! Youโre not welcomed at our house.โDespite 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. โWhat? Danโs gone? Where did he go? D-Didn't he just wake up? What the hell is going on?โโLook 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.โWhatโs going on? Whereโs Dan? Did the doctor take Dan away?โ 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, โI want to know as well.โโHow could you not know? You came before me.โโDan wasn't in the ward when I came,โ Ava said and turned around. โI'll go to the nurse's station and ask.โโWait.โGina grabbed Ava, her face was dark.โAva, 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.โLily.โ Julie walked up to Lillian and squatted down, giving her a friendly blessing. โLily, I really like you. I hope you can be happy every day, and I hope youโll be able to speak soon.โLillian 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.โMiss Charles, you can still come to me if you need help in the future. After all, I still owe you a favor.โJulie smiled and shook her head. โYou stopped owing me an
โI did,โ 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, โI wanted to help you get out of that situation, Miss Charles, but I didn't want to cross the line. I also didnโt 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.โFabian paused as he spoke, then, he glanced at Lillian softly.โBut Miss Charles, rest assured, thereโll be no such trouble in the future.โJulie 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.โMiss Charles, Iโve found a more suitable school for Lily, and itโs 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.โJulie, how could you fall in love with a single father?โJulie frowned. โYes, I won't deny it. I do have a crush on Mr. Johnson.โโWhat?โโTsk tskโฆ Julie, do you really like this single father?โ The look in Mrs. Gill's eyes was very subtle. โSomeone 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.โโWhat? He's Yorick and Lana's younger brother?โ Patty was even more nervous, for fear that
