When the crowd heard her reasoning, they all looked at Ava contemptuously, pointing and insulting her."No wonder Daniel left Naya hanging. It turns out it’s because of this.”"Some young women nowadays are really shameless. I bet she’s pestering Daniel because she has taken a fancy to the Grahams’ fortune.”"That's definitely the case. Otherwise, what kind of a person would be so brazen as to come to an occasion like this to cause trouble?""How shameless of her."All the guests started to think that Ava was the money-greedy vixen who was pestering Daniel.When Mr. Mendez’s client followed him into the hall and heard the chatter of the guests around them, there was a sudden and drastic change in her facial expression.‘Daniel Graham?’ she thought.The name sounded familiar to her. ‘That’s the guy who’s dating Ava, right?‘Why is he holding an engagement ceremony with another woman now?’The woman was stunned for a while before she pushed her way through the crowd, trying to

"What's going on here? Daniel, did you just say that your engagement to Naya is just an act?" Mr. Mendez immediately questioned him.Daniel nodded with a solemn expression and explained, "That's right. Naya was the one who suggested it. We did all of this just to appease my grandfather so that his condition will hopefully stabilize."Mr. Mendez looked incredulously at Naya, who looked livid as she stood on stage without saying a word. "Naya, is what Daniel said true?""..." At that moment, Naya did not know what to say to him.Meanwhile, Mrs. Mendez was furiously defending her. "Why would Naya joke about such an important event like her own marriage? Obviously, it’s because of this vixen! I bet she couldn’t bear seeing Daniel and Naya get married, so she came here to make trouble! Can't you all see it? It's that simple!"As Mrs. Mendez elaborated, she grew even more emotional. She pointed her finger at Ava, laughing with contempt. "This woman has no influential family behind her

The diamond on the ring once again reflected under the bright lights with a flash of dazzling brilliance.The next moment, Daniel got down on one knee, looked at Ava with devotion, and spoke with a serious expression, "Ava, although we haven't been together for a very long time, my heart tells me that you’re the only one I want to spend the rest of my life with."He confessed his love to her and followed with a direct proposal."Ava, will you marry me? Will you be my wife? I promise that I’ll love and cherish you with all my heart for the rest of your life. I promise to take care of you and protect you with my life. I don’t want to marry anyone but you."Daniel said the last part seemingly for those people who wanted to set him up with Naya.Meanwhile, Naya felt that Daniel was saying that to her!She felt as if she had been humiliated. She clenched her fists and dug her nails hard into her palm as she tried to restrain her emotions that were about to explode.When this happened

Mrs. Mendez glared at the woman with displeasure. "And who are you? It's none of your business whether or not I teach this vixen a lesson! This is my daughter's engagement to my future son-in-law! Who let this nobody in?"When Ava saw the woman being insulted by Mrs. Mendez, she felt uncomfortable and was thinking of settling the matter herself when Mr. Mendez rushed over to stop Mrs. Mendez from attacking the woman again."Watch your mouth! She’s my guest. This is Ms. Xander from Y Country!" Mr. Mendez reminded her solemnly before apologizing to the woman with a smile."Oh, Ms. Xander! Please don't take what she said personally. I was going to invite you to this engagement ceremony! I’m really sorry that you had to see this buffoonery.”When Mrs. Mendez heard who the woman was, her entire expression changed instantly."So this is the Ms. Xander you were meeting today." A bright ingratiating smile appeared on Mrs. Mendez's face. "Ms. Xander, I'm so sorry! I didn't know it was you.

When the woman said that, Mrs. Graham and the rest paused. After a few seconds, mocking sneers appeared on each of their faces.Ava ignored the disdainful looks on their faces. Instead, she was looking at the woman, hinting and imploring her not to continue.The woman saw Ava's gaze and understood what Ava was trying to say.She did not want to go against Ava's wishes, but she could not bear the attitude of these people in front of her any longer."Mrs. Xander, are you implying that Ava’s status is above us, the Grahams? Heh, and what makes you say that? The Grahams are one of the four most powerful families in the city. Our reputation, prestige, and financial resources are all ranked top in the city. Meanwhile, Ava…”Mrs. Graham paused and glanced at Ava with a hint of contempt."I had someone do a check on her a long time ago. She lost her parents when she was very young. She’s an orphan who came from an orphanage. That's all she is. How can you say that she has a higher status

Before Naya could finish her sentence, Raegan immediately gave her a slap across her face.Naya let out a painful cry. Surprised, she held her cheek as her head jerked up to look at Raegan."H-How dare you hit my daughter?!" Mrs. Mendez hurriedly stepped forward to defend Naya as she glared angrily at Raegan. "Did my daughter say something wrong? Ava is a vixen! Who do you think you are to interfere—""Because I’m Ava's mother. Because as a mother, it’s my instinct to defend my daughter!""...""..."After Raegan said those words, the entire banquet hall fell into a moment of silence.After a few seconds, everyone started to chatter among themselves."What? The person Daniel proposed to is actually the daughter of the richest person in Y Country?""No way! I didn't expect Ava to come from such a family.""No wonder she said that it was the Grahams who would benefit from Ava marrying into their family! That's what she meant!"The crowd murmured, expressing their overwhelming

Raegan had just warned them loftily and powerfully, yet she looked at Ava with eyes full of love.Daniel did not expect to meet Ava's mother on an occasion like this. At that moment, the joy he felt was not from finding out Ava's status but from the fact that his future mother-in-law approved of their relationship.Naya covered her cheek and clenched her teeth in anger. She had become the clown of the show!Her family’s business had gone down the drain, her future wedding was canceled, and she was sure that Mrs. Graham would be delighted to have Ava as a daughter-in-law!After the fake engagement ceremony ended and Mrs. Graham and her lot had gone back home, they were still reeling from the surprise of it all."I-Is it true Ava, that wild girl, is actually the daughter of the richest person in Y Country?" Mrs. Graham exclaimed, asking her husband."How can you still be doubting it? That was Raegan Xander, a very capable and powerful woman. She’s someone who has been featured many

It seemed that everything had happened because the Grahams did not think Ava was good enough, so the two families came up with a plan and set up the whole thing.Madeline expressed her sorrow after hearing the whole story but she still felt happy for Ava."That Maisie girl is such a nice person. She sounds very resourceful and justice-minded. She wasn't even scared when she stood up for you."Ava smiled cheerfully. "Yeah, Maisie is very brave and justice-minded. And she's really good to me too.""Mm-hmm..." Madeline responded before continuing with a hint. "And there's someone else who's also very, very good to you.""I know, it's you, Maddie,” Ava replied without thinking, only to hear Madeline saying that was not what she meant."I was talking about your mother.""..."Ava fell silent when Madeline said that."Ava, I know I wasn’t there at the scene, but I think your mother really wants to make it up to you and regrets what she did when she left you behind last time."Madel
