Naya's mother angrily pointed at Ava after scolding her, then turned around to leave.“Stop right there.”Tom stopped Naya's mother.“Madam, are you thinking of leaving without a single word of apology after you made such a fuss in my company and bullied my employee?”Naya's mother laughed out loud when she heard what Tom said.“Tom, don't talk to me like that. Your family and my family are friends. I didn’t settle the score with you for your sister joining forces with this b*tch to screw up Naya’s engagement party the last time. Now, you’re defending this woman as well?”Naya's mother said and suddenly looked at Ava with a very contemptuous look.“What an amazing two-sided b*tch. You’re so amazing at seducing others. You seduced my daughter’s fiancé and you’re also so close to the president of Lowe Group. Ava, I really underestimated you!”Naya's mother was very harsh with her words, and the employees on the side finally knew who the rude lady who was swearing and targeting Av
“If it isn’t because I’m rushing to meet my friends for dinner, I would’ve chosen to call the police and let them deal with you. But I'm in a hurry and don't want to waste time with you. Mrs. Mendez, you’re an adult and should know what’s right and what’s wrong. Don’t repeat your precious daughter’s mistakes.”After Ava's solemn reminder, she turned her head to look at Tom apologetically. “I'm sorry, Mr. Lowe. Due to my personal affairs, I got you involved too. I'm really sorry.”“You’re too polite. You’re an employee of my company, and someone is here to make trouble. It’s only right that I help you.” Tom's attitude was very serious. As he said that, he raised his dark eyes and looked at his employees.“Go home now so that you won’t get hurt all because you chose to be nosy.” Tom glanced at Naya's mother when he said this.Everyone understood what Tom meant, and they did think that Naya's mother could be dangerous. They did not want the same thing to happen to them as that employe
Ava was stunned for a moment. Then, she explained, “A colleague accidentally spilled water on me just now. Another colleague didn’t want me to catch a cold, so he lent me his jacket.”Ava lied a little as she did not want Daniel to worry about her just because of Naya’s mother. She also did not want Daniel to misunderstand anything.Daniel did not doubt what Ava said. He just saw that most of Ava's upper body was wet and figured that this could not have been done with just a glass of water. However, Daniel did not ask any questions.In the car.Daniel took a clean towel and handed it to Ava. Before he could speak, he heard Ava sneeze.He frowned worriedly. “I'll take you home to change first. Otherwise, I'm afraid you'll really catch a cold.”Ava was happy that Daniel cared about her so much. She smiled and nodded. “Okay.”Seeing the smile on Ava's face, Daniel immediately felt very happy.When the car stopped, Ava was surprised. It was because this was the apartment she rented
“Of course, it’s because I want to question how you’re educating your daughter, of course. She’s an uncultured woman who will only harm society if she’s allowed to run free.”After listening to the accusation, Raegan still kept a calm and shallow smile. “Mrs. Mendez, you’re so ridiculous. Who’s the uncultured one here? You should be very clear in your heart who’s the one who indulged an uncultured woman to kill, kidnap, and deceive, causing her to finally be sent to prison.”“You—”“But speaking of it, the uncultured woman who was sentenced to prison isn’t the most hateful. The most hateful one is the person who gave birth to her. That person only gave that uncultured woman life but didn’t educate her to be a decent human being. No wonder her daughter became so messed up and walked the wrong path.”Raegan retorted back mercilessly.Naya's mother was so embarrassed that her face turned ashen.“Raegan, don’t cross the line. Do you think you’re all that because you’re rich? Our fami
Naya's mother could barely hold her phone.She calmed herself down and asked incredulously, “Are you telling the truth? Are you really?”After Naya's mother asked more questions, she finally got an answer.She could barely stand still. She leaned back on the sofa while feeling dizzy.“I want to see Naya! I want to see Naya now!”After his wife’s strong demands, Ethan finally managed to get them the chance to see Naya through his connections.It was almost the 20th day of Naya's imprisonment.Naya's mother did not expect to visit Naya like this.Naya was currently in the detention ward in prison. As soon as Naya's mother saw Naya, she wanted to rush over, but the guards stopped her and reminded her.“The two of you only have ten minutes. Don’t talk loudly. If there’s any violation of the rules, I’ll ask you to leave immediately.”Naya's mother did not listen to what the man said. She just looked at Naya and nodded casually.Ethan nodded his head seriously. Then, the man went
Ethan had a headache after hearing this, but he could only be silent now.When Naya saw that her father was silent and not speaking, her face darkened in dissatisfaction. “Why are you still not siding with me at this time? What have you worked so hard for most of your life for? Is it to let an outsider bully your daughter whom you have cherished since she was young?”“Naya, calm down. Take care of your body. Don't get angry with your father. You should know in your heart how much your father loves you.”Naya's mother raised her hand and patted Naya's shoulder to reassure her. She wanted to hold Naya's hand, but when she saw the handcuffs on Naya's other wrist, she was on the verge of an emotional breakdown. A spark of hatred also started burning within her.“Naya, tell me. What do you want us to do? Even if your dad refuses to do it, I’ll do it for you no matter what! I’ve disliked Ava for a very long time. She's hurt you to this point. I’ll make her life a living hell.”When she
When she did not see Daniel, Ava's heart skipped a beat. She felt uneasy for some reason.Recalling the previous car accident, Ava immediately took out her phone to call Daniel. She held the phone as her hand trembled uncontrollably.‘Please, don’t let Dan be in trouble.’Ava prayed silently in her heart, but she could not get through to Daniel’s phone.This uneasy feeling caused Ava's heart to completely lose its normal rhythm.She wanted to find Daniel but did not know where to look.Suddenly, familiar footsteps approached from behind her. Ava turned around abruptly. “Dan—Mr. Lowe.”When she saw Tom, Ava's expectations were also completely shattered.Yet, Tom still gave Ava a friendly smile. “I saw from the lobby that you’ve been standing here alone for a long time. You seem to be very distressed. Is there anything I can help you with?”Ava was stunned and shook her head. “No, I'm waiting for my friend, but he doesn't seem to be here yet. I can’t get through to him either.”
Ava and Tom looked at each other. Ava seemed to understand that he was trying to get her a way out of this situation.She nodded and wanted to reject Neil, but she heard Neil say regretfully, “Really? You have an appointment with a friend, Ava? That's a pity. Today is your mother's birthday. Our family has finally reunited. I think your mother also hopes that we can sit down and have dinner together again.”Upon hearing these words, Ava’s words of rejection were stuck in her throat. She was unable to speak for a while.“Ava, if you can…” Neil sounded to be pleading with her, but in the middle of the sentence, he suddenly smiled with ease. “Since you have a prior appointment, it's better not to miss it. It’s fine for your mother and me to spend it together.”“You can bring me along too if you don't mind.” Tom smiled. It seemed as if he was joking.Neil warmly invited, “If you don’t mind, we can add an extra seat for you, Mr. Lowe.”Tom smiled when he heard that. “Let's go, then. M
