After the officer said that, the two of them walked directly to the hospital bed.The police officers were serious as they looked at the weak-looking Naya. “Miss Mendez, please cooperate with us to answer a few questions.”Naya raised her eyelids laboriously, wanting to show that she was unable to cooperate with the investigation due to her current situation.Naya's mother understood what Naya meant and hurriedly explained to the officers, “Officers, my daughter has just woken up, so she’s still very weak. I'm afraid she can't answer your questions. Can you let my daughter rest first?”“Mrs. Mendez, before we came, we had already asked Miss Mendez's attending doctor. The doctor said that Miss Mendez only suffered from superficial wounds and isn’t in a serious condition. As long as she’s conscious, she’s able to cooperate with our investigation.”“...” Naya's mother glanced at Naya in embarrassment after hearing this.Naya also felt a little embarrassed, but she still pretended to
Naya originally thought that Daniel was worried about her safety, so he came to the hospital to visit her. She never imagined that Daniel came for Ava.However, Naya did not quite understand something. Had something happened to Ava? The two police officers on the side were also puzzled when they saw Daniel questioning Naya so emotionally.“Sir, is your friend missing? Since you came to question Naya in such a hurry, do you suspect that your friend's disappearance is related to Naya?”Naya became restless when the officers asked this.“Officers, I’m being falsely accused. I don't even know what he's talking about.”Naya looked at Daniel innocently.“Dan, how can you question me like this when Ava is gone? I just got into a car accident not long ago and I almost couldn't save myself. How would I know what happened to Ava?”“Daniel, you're going too far! No matter what, Naya is your fiancée. Are you trying to destroy her by asking her this in front of the police?” Naya's mother c
Naya's mother immediately went over and closed the door of the ward. When she looked back at Naya, she saw that Naya's face had changed. At this moment, her eyes were gloomy, and her teeth were gritted together in anger.“Naya, what the hell is going on here? Is Ava…”“I really didn't expect this.” Naya sneered. “I've known Daniel for so many years, but I’m not as good as Ava who has only known him for a few years? And he still has amnesia, so he doesn't even remember who Ava is. Yet, under such circumstances, he’s still defending that b*tch.”Naya was really angry and felt extremely aggrieved.Naya's mother looked a little distressed as she stood by Ava’s side. Then, she hurried over to comfort Naya. “Naya, don't be angry. With your qualifications, you don't have to marry Daniel. There are many sons of rich and noble families for you to choose from in Glendale.”“Of course, I know that there are still many men I can marry, but I only want to marry Daniel! I’ve liked him for so ma
Before Ava was fully awake, she heard a rude man's voice ordering her around.She felt a pain in the back of her neck. She wanted to raise her hands to massage it, but she found that she could not lift her hands.“Did you hear me? I’m talking to you!” The man urged impatiently and pushed Ava without pity.Only then did Ava wake up completely. She looked up and saw the man in black standing in front of her. After that, she remembered what had happened before she fell unconscious.She was driving on the road waiting for a red light when this man rushed over, strangled her, and knocked her unconscious. Although Ava had always been straightforward, she also knew to act according to the situation.At this time, she was tied up and had no idea where she was. Of course, she could only keep her cool.“Who are you? Why did you bring me here?” Ava pretended to be scared as she stared at the man, secretly sizing him up. She was sure that she did not know this man.When the man saw Ava be
Ava was stunned when she heard that. Then, she saw the caller ID flashing on the screen.‘Why is Maddie calling me at this time?’Ava was still wondering when the man suddenly picked up Madeline's call.Madeline had no clue about Ava's kidnapping. She just wanted to ask Ava when she would return to the old manor. She did not expect a man to answer the phone.“Who are you? Where’s Ava?” Madeline subconsciously felt that the person answering the phone was not a good person because the way the man spoke and his tone was rather rude.“Who are you to Ava?” the man asked proudly.“You should answer me first. Who are you? Why do you have Ava's phone?”“Ava? Since you’re so worried about her, you must be Ava's good friend or best friend. Let me tell you this. Ava is with me now, and I want ten million as ransom, so hurry up and get ready to pay up. Otherwise, don't even think about seeing Ava again.”When Madeline heard this, her heart skipped a beat.Ava was kidnapped?“Why should I
Jeremy did not think for too long before he came to a decision.“We should call the cops first.”“But the kidnappers said…”“Linnie, I know you're worried about Ava. But at a time like this, we have to trust the police. Even if you don't trust the police, trust me. I won't risk the safety of your best friend.” Jeremy's gentle tone convinced Madeline.Madeline looked into Jeremy's deep eyes and nodded.“Okay, I believe you.”Jeremy squeezed Madeline's hand to give her some comfort before driving directly to the police station.After they went to the police station, they found out that Daniel had been here to lodge a report too.Madeline and Jeremy immediately contacted Daniel. After the three met, Daniel did not seem as foreign as when he first got amnesia. Instead, he immediately told Jeremy and Madeline what he knew.“Ava was kidnapped, and I think it has something to do with Naya. I went to look for Naya, but she refused to say anything.”“Dan, why are you so sure that Naya
“Mommy.”“Mommy is here. You’re such a good boy, Pudding,” Madeline patted his little head lovingly.“Mommy, isn't Aunt Ava coming to our house today?” Jackson also asked curiously.Madeline was trying to find an excuse to muddle through this when she heard the familiar footsteps coming from the entrance. She looked up and saw that Jeremy was back.Madeline stood up while carrying her youngest son. “Jeremy, you're back. Any news?”Jeremy took the little boy from Madeline's arms and kissed him intimately.“No news yet, but I’ve already found out who kidnapped Ava.”“Who is it?”“The kidnapper is just a lazy bum who has a lot of criminal records. In order to make quick money, he’ll do anything.” After that, Jeremy analyzed the situation and said, “I found that he has been receiving a lot of money in his account recently, and the amount is the same as the money Naya transferred. It means that Naya must have a deal with this person.”“No, it’s not a guess but the truth,” Madeline
Madeline looked up and saw a man dressed in black and sunglasses. He looked like a thief or a robber.She was sure that she did not know this man, but she felt that he was inexplicably familiar.After thinking about it for a second or two, Madeline suddenly remembered that this man was the thug who kidnapped Ava.Madeline's eyes lit up as she recalled the footage Jeremy showed her last night. This man in front of her was surely the one who kidnapped Ava.Knock, knock, knock. The man knocked on Madeline's car window again.Madeline cautiously lowered the window a little. The gap was not enough for anyone to reach their hand in.She looked at the man with a calm and puzzled expression, “Sir, what's the matter?”“You’re Eveline Montgomery, right?” the man asked directly, and his voice which was as rough as sandpaper made Madeline even more certain that he was the kidnapper who wanted a ransom of ten million dollars.“I am. May I ask who you are…”“Eveline, I don't want to waste m
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
