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

Ava's words shocked both Raegan and Daniel, who were standing by the side.Both of them thought that Ava would be heartless, but it turned out that she was not.Raegan froze for a few seconds before a look of surprise and joy appeared on her face. She had not felt so happy in years."Of course, I don't mind! I don't mind at all! I’m not busy tomorrow. Come and see me tomorrow when you're done with work! I can wait for you!”Raegan's voice was a little shaky, and she could not hide the joy flashing in her eyes."You guys should rest early, then. I’ll go back too. Daniel, take good care of Ava. I'll be leaving now.""Okay, take care, Mrs. Xander. I'll take care of Ava, don't worry," Daniel promised Raegan.He could clearly see how happy Raegan was.Even though Raegan's back was turned, he could see the spring in her steps.Ava stood at the same spot until Raegan was not in view anymore. After that, she withdrew her gaze, and her eyes quietly turned red.Daniel saw the subtle ch

When Ava got such a sure and sincere answer from Daniel, she could not hold back her tears any longer. She cried her heart out.Daniel lifted his hand and wiped away every one of her tears sadly.Before this, he did not know about Ava's past.Now, he understood why Ava had reacted the way she did to her own mother. It was because she was traumatized at a young age.However, he believed that this trauma would one day be healed.Daniel intended to stay with Ava, but in order to give her a good night's rest, Daniel did not stay late.When he returned home, he found his parents waiting for him in the living room.As soon as Mrs. Graham saw Daniel, she rushed over to him and pulled him to ask, "Is Ava really Raegan’s daughter? The same Raegan who’s the richest person in Y Country? Ava is her biological daughter? Why didn't you tell us about it? If you had told us, all this trouble could’ve been avoided.”Mrs. Graham started grumbling."If you had told us about Ava's family, your fa

Ava was holding her glass of water with a puzzled expression as she looked at the two people who were blocking her way. They were the two most gossipy women in her office. As Ava looked at them, it gradually dawned on her that they were there for something.Even so, she just looked at them with confusion and asked, "What is it? Do you girls want to go have breakfast with me?"As soon as Fiona and Kendra heard that, a flash of surprise lit up in both of their eyes."Sis, if you don't mind, we'd love to have breakfast with you!""Yeah, we'd love to, Sis!""..."When Ava heard how Fiona and Kendra addressed her, she felt goosebumps all over her body.She tried to smile but it just looked like an awkward and impolite fake smile."What are you gals doing here? It doesn't seem appropriate for you gals to call me ‘Sis’ when I joined the company later than you. I’m your junior.”After Ava said that, she walked around them and quickly headed straight for the pantry.Fiona and Kendra

Fiona and Kendra did not say anything. They returned to their seats and replayed the video from this morning.The more they watched it, the more envious and jealous they were.Why was Ava's background so exceptional? Furthermore, she also had an extremely wealthy mother. Just how rich was she?After Ava finished her breakfast, she did not care whether Fiona and Kendra were paying attention to her.She was busy with her own work, and when it was almost 12 o'clock, she received a text message from an unknown number.There was only a short sentence. [Ava, I’m downstairs at your company. You can come down when you’re free. I’ll always wait for you.]Ava looked at the text on the screen of her phone, and she was inexplicably touched.“Ava, it's almost lunchtime. Do you want to have lunch together?” Maisie walked over.Ava put away the phone and got up. “Maisie, I have an appointment with someone today.”“Oh? Is it with your super handsome boyfriend? No, no, he’s your fiance now.” M
