He was also looking at her, and although he did not speak, he was still able to leave an impact on her heartbeat.
Ava could not express the joy and excitement in her heart. “Danny.” Ava finally called out Daniel’s name, her voice trembling slightly. “ Danny, it’s great that you finally woke up.”
Ava leaned over and squeezed Daniel’s hand tightly.
This grasp seemed to surprise Daniel very much. He even reflexively pulled his hand back the moment Ava clenched him tightly.
Ava was stunned by Daniel’s action, and so was Niamh, not to mention Daniel’s parents and Naya.
Daniel was clearly resisting Ava.
However, how was that possible?
“Danny?” Ava looked at Daniel inexplicably, feeling a chill in her heart. “Danny, what’s the matter?”
Daniel frowned slightly, but his eyes were pure and clear. He looked at Ava with doubts in his eyes. “Do we know each other?” +
“….”
“….”
Danie]’s rhetorical question undoubtedly shocked everyone in the ward.
However, Raegan, who was standing at the doorof the ward, sighed helplessly.
She knew that Ava was going to have a hearing today, so she came to the hospital earlier.
When she arrived, she saw the attending doctor and the nurse in the ward. After she went in, she realized that Daniel had already woken up. However, something was not quite right. He seemed to have forgotten a lot of people and things. He seemed to also not remember what had happened before he went into a coma. He only remembered that his name was Daniel and not anything else.
The doctor guessed that his brain might have suffered a severe concussion during the car accident, which led to temporary amnesia. They would still have to observe him to know more about his recovery. The doctor could not come to a firm conclusion right now either.
Then, Raegan immediately contacted the expert she knew before continuing to wait for Ava’s arrival.
However, Daniel’s parents and Naya were the ones who came first. Ava arrived less than a minute after they went into the ward.
Just when she was about to tell Ava about the situation, Ava headed straight in as she could no longer wait.
When she saw this scene, Raegan felt very bad. After discovering that Daniel had lost his memory, Daniel’s parents were very emotional and irritable. However, Naya secretly smiled after she recovered from her shock.
Daniel did not know Ava anymore, which meant she could take advantage of the opportunity.
It had been two days and Ava still could not accept Daniel’s amnesia. However, she had no choice but to face it.
Sitting on the bench downstairs of the hospital, Ava seemed to not feel anything even when gusts of cold wind blew on her. Niamh sat beside her, not knowing what to say other than words of comfort.
“Ava, Dan’s amnesia is only temporary. When his body fully recovers, he’ll naturally remember everything. Don’t be too pessimistic.”
After listening to Niamh’s comforting words quietly, Ava suddenly sighed and smiled. “I’m not being pessimistic. I’ve been through so many difficulties. As long as Danny is safe and sound, that’s enough.”
“It’s good that you think this way.” Niamh also sighed in relief. “Let’s go visit Dan now and let him get to know us again.”
“Okay.” Ava raised an optimistic smile and followed Niamh back to the ward, only to see that someone was one step ahead of her.
Naya had come unbeknownst to them, and she was bringing a bowl of chicken soup that was meant for Daniel.
Daniel’s right arm was still wrapped with lots of gauze, so he could not exert much force. He just looked at Naya and said, “Thank you.”
Naya quickly showed a shy smile. “Dan, why are you being so polite to me? We grew up together and are childhood sweethearts. We’ve been through all kinds of ups and downs together. Plus, I’m your fiancée now, so I have to take care of you.”
Niamh and Ava heard what Naya said to Daniel. The fire in their hearts burst out at the same time. 2 Naya was lying through her teeth and saying lies to Daniel, who was now an amnesiac. Her motives and intentions were too obvious.
However, when Niamh and Ava were about to enter the ward, Daniel’s mother suddenly appeared in front of them. ?
While Ava and Niamh were stopped outside, Daniel and Naya, who was sitting by the bed, looked over.
Compared to her previous impatient attitude, Mrs. Graham now acted indifferently. Ava, you should leave. Don’t disturb Dan again. I don’t want to repeat what I’ve said. In short, you can’t be with Dan. Don’t waste any more time.” +
After she finished speaking, she closed the door of the ward without giving Niamh and Avaa chance to speak.
Upon seeing this, Niamh wanted to open the door and go in. However, Ava stopped her. “Let Dan get a good rest first.”
“Ava, if we don’t go in now and make it clear to Dan, he’ll probably believe Naya’s lies. That woman is clearly trying to take advantage of the situation.”
“No, I trust Dan.” Ava pulled the corners of her lips, but the smile was so forced. “Niamh, why don’t you go back first? You’ve been with me all this time and sacrificed a lot of your personal life for me. You should go back. I can stay here alone. Go and accompany Kendrick.”
The smile on Ava’s face was much brighter, and it seemed to be very relaxed.
However, Niamh knew that Ava was just forcing herself. “Ava, I know what I’m doing. I just want to be with you right now. I’ll only focus on taking care of you now.”
Niamh said and sat down with Ava on the chair outside the door of the ward.
Inside the ward.
Daniel was still looking in the direction of the door of the ward. Ava’s expression from just now remained in his mind for a long time.
“The woman from just now…” Daniel slowly parted his lips. “I mean the woman with long hair.”
Ava and Naya paused for a while. After they exchanged glances, Daniel’s mother spoke first, “ That woman is Ava. Dan, don’t you remember her?”
“Ava” Daniel uttered the name softly. He felt as though something had penetrated his heart and was gently scratching it with an indescribable subtle feeling.
Naya and Daniel’s mother were both carefully observing the reaction on Daniel’s face at this time. Obviously, Daniel was very confused about Ava’s identity. It was because he did not remember Ava.
This was good.
Naya and Daniel’s mother both breathed a sigh of relief. Then, Daniel’s mother said, “It seems that you don’t remember that woman. This is good. That woman used to pester you a lot and would give you headaches. She wanted to get close to you and destroy the relationship between you and Naya. Fortunately, your relationship with Naya is stable and no one can break you guys up. Now that you and Naya are engaged and are about to get married, I’m relieved.”
Daniel’s mother lied through her teeth without batting an eyelid.
Naya also went along with Mrs. Graham’s act by showing a sad and conflicted expression. “Forget it, Mrs. Graham. We won’t mention this person in the future. I just want to live a quiet life with Dan.”
“Okay, we won’t talk about her anymore. If she dares to pester you again, I’ll get bodyguards to kick her out.” Daniel’s mother used this topic to put forth her ideas.
Upon hearing this, Daniel’s heart felt uncomfortable. He frowned and did not drink the chicken soup that Naya brought. Instead, he seriously emphasized, “If she comes to me next time, let me talk to her. Don’t use such violent means to drive her away.”
Daniel’s mother and Naya were stunned for a moment, feeling that Daniel still had some subconscious pity and love for Ava.
Daniel’s mother felt the need to make a swift decision on this. Hence, her face sank. “Dan, you’re too soft -hearted. You shouldn’t give any chances to women like her. If you talk to her nicely, she’ll become very arrogant. Plus, if you really agree to meet that woman, Naya will be sad.”
Daniel’s mother gave Naya a wink as she spoke, and Naya understood immediately. She then showed a very disappointed look.
Daniel’s body was still very weak now. After listening to his mother’s words and seeing Naya’s sad face, he felt his head buzzing. He could not concentrate at all.
Hiss! Daniel made a muffled sound of pain. Daniel’s mother became nervous, fearing that something would happen to Daniel. :
Naya also looked worried and anxious. “Dan, what’s wrong? Don’t scare me.”
“I’m not feeling well. I want to sleep for a while.” Daniel frowned tiredly and lay down slowly.
Naya wanted to go over to help so she could try her best to leave him with a new and better impression of her. However, after he lay down, he immediately closed his eyes and fell asleep.
Naya was too lazy to play the role of a good girl now.
She looked at Daniel’s mother, feeling a little pissed. Then, she glanced at the door again before saying with mock compassion, “Mrs. Graham, let’s go out. We should let Dan have a good rest.” Daniel’s mother roughly understood what Naya meant. She turned around and walked to the door without saying anything.
After the two came out, they closed the door of the ward and turned their heads, only to see Niamh and Ava still there. They were not surprised by that at all.
Ava and Niamh stood up slowly. It could be seen that Daniel’s mother still wanted to side with Naya. 2
“Ava, I’ve already made myself so clear. You must understand my intentions by now, right?”
Her tone was indifferent. It sounded as if she did not want to bother arguing with Ava.
“I don’t care what happened to you and Dan in the past. Dan has woken up now, and he has completely forgotten about you. This is what God intended. You’re destined to not end up together. Humans can’t go against the wishes of God. So, this is the end for you and Dan. Don’t show up in front of Dan again in the future. Otherwise, I’1l have the bodyguards kick you out the moment I see you.”
Her meaning was very clear. She just did not want Ava and Daniel to be together. At the end of the day, she still chose Naya.
Niamh could not stand it anymore. She gave a small smile and raised her proud but beautiful face.
“Mrs. Graham, do you know what it truly means to go against God’s wishes? It’s instilling lies into Dan, who has no memory of anything now. It’s to know that there’s a cruel and despicable woman standing beside him but still trying to force him to get together with her. This is what is called going against God’s wishes.”
They did not expect Niamh to retort like this. Daniel’s mother, who was pretending to be calm and collected, could not hold back her emotions all of a sudden.
However, even though Daniel’s mother was angry, she still knew that she could not fight head-on with Niamh. Although the Grahams also were a big family and had a big business, the Waldburgs and the Montgomeries were now bound by marriage. It would not do her any good to offend Niamh. Therefore, she just rolled her eyes at Ava.
“Ava, are you so desperate to marry into a wealthy family? There are so many good men in the world, so why do you have to insist on being with Dan? I’ve already told you so clearly. Why won’t you listen tome?” |
Daniel’s mother glared at Ava furiously, her tone getting more and more aggressive.
“Listen to me. ] only compromised and agreed with your and Dan’s relationship at the time for
