Chapter 2401
Her heart began to beat very nervously from this moment on. She was not sure if Esther had gotten out of the car here just now, or if someone would hear the sound and come out to check.Amidst her perturbed feelings and doubts, Ava vaguely heard the sound of hurried and disorientated footsteps coming from afar.After a while, Ava sensed a tall man standing across from the wall.“Damn, the wall of this broken house fell off,” the man complained unhappily, “I think before the fish takes the bait, I might be crushed to death in this stupid house for locking someone here.”The man complained again before walking back.Ava held her breath. She poked her head out and observed the direction the man was leaving.However, from what the man said to himself just now, Ava was able to determine that Daniel was indeed locked up here.Unexpectedly, Esther was even more extreme than Naya.Ava looked around before following behind the man.However, after taking a few steps up the stairs, she f

Facing Jeremy and Madeline's doubts, Daniel frowned. He seemed to look troubled.“When I was going to pick up Ava from work yesterday evening, I ran into an old woman who had trouble walking. She was separated from her family. I figured that since it was still early, I would send her home, but who knew her home was so far away?“When I wanted to tell Ava, I realized that I had lost my phone. There were no cars where the old woman lived, so I had to wait until this morning.”Daniel frowned again. “I didn't expect this to happen.”Gina was surprised after hearing what Daniel said.“Dan, did you… Weren't you with that Ava last night?”“No.”“...” Gina had an embarrassed look on her face. She felt slightly embarrassed when she recalled what she said about Ava not long ago.She even thought that Ava was deliberately making something unnecessarily complicated, but it turned out that Ava really had no idea where Daniel had gone.“This is bad.” Madeline's heartstrings tightened, and h

Ava suddenly felt a biting chill amidst her drowsiness. She shivered and finally woke up from the cold.In her blurry vision, Ava saw a figure slowly walking toward her. She raised her head with difficulty and saw a familiar face with a sinister smile through her wet eyes.It was Esther.Ava closed her eyes, recalled what had happened before she passed out, and slowly opened her eyes again.“Of course, it's you.” Ava took a deep breath and recomposed herself.She remembered, but as soon as she moved, she was kicked violently from behind. This kick hit her lumbar, causing indescribable dull pain.“Ah!” Ava reflexively let out a muffled groan as she curled up, the ice water soaking her whole body and penetrating her skin layer by layer. At this moment, she felt extremely uncomfortable, but she still did not give in. She was still trying to stand up.Just as she was trying to get up, Esther walked over and slapped Ava twice in the face without saying a word.“You b*tch, do you fin

Esther warned with a grim face. At this moment, she no longer had the image of a graceful and elegant lady. She was like an irrational town shrew who was doing completely crazy and ridiculous things.Ava lay down on the uneven ground as she listened to Esther's constant curses in her ear. Then, she closed her eyes weakly.She was wrong. She was too impulsive when she took this step.She should have listened to Madeline and not impulsively looked for Esther. She should have stayed at Whitman Corporation and waited for Jeremy to find out some clues before taking action. Now, she did not even know if she would be able to go back alive.Ava thought silently, but it was too late for her to regret this.At this time, she was still worried about Daniel in her heart.“Danny…”‘Where the hell are you?‘Are you near me?’Esther, who was about to go back, heard Ava muttering Daniel's name in a daze. She spun around and walked back to Ava.“You’re still thinking about men at this mom
Chapter 2405
Esther threw the bat away and told the two men to look after Ava before turning away.After getting in the car, she called Ethan back.Esther was even angrier when she heard that Daniel had gone to look for her.However, she did not show it. She replied in a soft voice that she was shopping outside and would be back in a while before hanging up the phone.When she thought that the life of her precious daughter, whom she had doted on for more than 20 years, was over, Esther's desire for revenge grew stronger and stronger.Madeline and Jeremy followed Daniel to the Mendez family’s manor, but they did not expect Ethan to be at home at this time.Compared to Esther's unfriendliness, Ethan seemed to be a rather polite person.Although he was very heartbroken and regretful about Naya's incident, he felt that Naya was just suffering the consequences of her actions. He could not blame anyone.He asked the servant to make tea and prepare snacks before sitting down.“You said Ava came t
Chapter 2406
Daniel asked Esther about Ava's whereabouts with certainty.Esther's heart was racing, but her face was full of disapproval.She walked toward Ethan leisurely and sat down on the sofa carefreely. “This is so strange. What does it have to do with me that you can’t find that vixen? Why are you asking me about her whereabouts?”Seeing that Esther was acting so indifferent like this matter had nothing to do with her, Madeline began to feel anxious.“Mrs. Mendez, we have reasons to believe that Ava came here to find you, and during this period when Ava was gone, I heard from Mr. Mendez that you just happened to be out.”After listening to Madeline's words, Esther suddenly let out a sneer.“Mrs. Whitman, what you said is really interesting. I'm not my precious daughter who’s now behind bars because she was framed by you guys. She lost her freedom and is detained in prison all day and night. I'm a free woman, so I can go wherever I want. Do you think you have the right to control me?”
Chapter 2407
Ethan could not stop Esther, so he just politely said a few words to Jeremy and the rest before going upstairs himself.Daniel stood in the same spot with a lot on his mind. He felt very anxious, and an inexplicable sense of uneasiness was spreading in his heart. Then, it gradually wrapped around his heart like a huge black curtain.“Dan, let's go to the police station first.”Madeline's voice brought Daniel back to his senses.He nodded, said nothing, and followed Jeremy and Madeline to the police station.On the way there, he saw the surveillance footage of Ava getting into the cab and following Esther on Jeremy's phone. The subsequent surveillance footage from the streets had not been sent to Jeremy, so there was no way to determine where Esther and Ava got out of their cabs.Esther stood on the balcony, watching the car drive away with a sneer.“If you want to call the police, go ahead. Even if you look for her following the surveillance footage, you won't find her. You hurt
Chapter 2408
On the way to the police station just now, Madeline had persuaded Jeremy to let her get out of the car halfway.She returned to the location near the Mendez family’s manor to try to see if Esther would go out again. Not long after, Madeline did manage to wait until Esther went out. Then, she called a cab to follow behind Esther’s cab.She did not expect Esther to notice her.When the driver saw that the car he was following had stopped in front of him, he turned his head and asked Madeline.“Miss, do you still want to follow them?”“No, thank you.” Madeline directly got out of the car after paying the fare.Esther was a little surprised to see Madeline getting out of the car, but at the same time, she was not too surprised.“Mrs. Whitman, why are you following me?” Esther asked with a smile.Madeline stepped forward and parted her lips with a light smile. “Everyone can use the road. Are you the one who paved this road, Mrs. Mendez?”The smile on Esther's face was even more mea
