“Alright, I’ll wait.” Daniel’s tone was still so amiable and was filled with endless gentleness. Ava quickly told Niamh an address, and Niamh drove to their destination according to the address Ava mentioned.
Before Niamh could park the car, Ava quickly got out.
She asked Daniel to meet her at the door of a florist near the hospital. After Ava got there, she did not see Daniel. At this moment, she heard a woman’s slow voice from behind her.
“Stop looking. The person you’re looking for is not here.”
This voice that was filled with arrogance and haughtiness was all too familiar to Ava.
Ava clenched her fist, knowing that her plan today was ruined.
She took a deep breath, recomposed herself, and turned around with an indifferent face.
Naya was dressed beautifully and carrying an expensive handbag. She stood in front of Ava arrogantly.
“Ava, this is the last time I’m warning you. Stop approaching my fiancé again.”
“Heh.” Ava could not help sneering. “Fiancé? Naya, you’re so shameless.”
Ava immediately replied sarcastically, causing Naya’s face to sink.
“Ava, you…”
“What? Naya, you know exactly who Dan’s fiancée is. You’re taking advantage of Dan’s amnesia and you want to instill him with memories that aren’t true at all. Listen to me, it’s useless. Sooner or later, Dan will remember everything.”
After hearing this, Naya gritted her teeth in disapproval. However, the next second, she showed a sinister and smug smile again.
“Yes, you’re right. Dan’s memory loss won’t last forever, but I promise that when Dan regains his memory, he won’t be able to be with you again.” + Naya curled her red lips, and her tone was unusually determined.
“Ava, you’re not destined to end up with Dan in this life. We have fought back and forth for so long, but the final winner is me.”
Naya said domineeringly and turned around with asmile.
Just as Niamh parked the car and came to look for Ava, she saw Naya walking toward her witha complacent look.
Niamh looked around subconsciously, but she only saw Ava standing in front of the florist with a solemn expression. She could not see Daniel anywhere. |
Suddenly, she understood what was going on. Before Niamh could say anything, Naya took the initiative to walk in front of Niamh. She showed a proud look to her once again.
“Eveline, I warn you to stop messing with me. So what if you’re the young madam of Glendale’s number one rich family? I’ll never be afraid of you. Even if Kendrick wants to use his power to put pressure on my daddy, the Mendezes will not give in. Ihaven’t forgotten about how you framed me for attempted murder. I’ll definitely pursue it to the end!”
Naya gave Niamh a vicious warning and started to walk away.
Niamh raised her beautiful eyes calmly. “ Wait.” She stopped Naya.
Naya stopped in her tracks.
Niamh started to walk gracefully in front of Naya, her delicate and beautiful eyes filled with sharpness. However, she still had a smile on her face, but this smile looked very subtle.
“Naya, I think you’re mistaken. My husband will never use such means to pressure anyone. You’re slandering us by saying that, and I will reserve the right to hold you accountable. Secondly, I never make guesses out of thin air. I won’t casually slander anyone. Naya, you know best in your heart who’s the last person who tampered with Ava’s car.”
“…”
After listening to what Niamh said, Naya was speechless for a moment.
Niamh’s eyes were too sharp and piercing. The cold light coming from her eyes was extraordinarily powerful too.
Naya pursed her lips and retorted unconvincingly, “You’re just making it up. The real criminals have already been convicted and you still want to slander me. Eveline, we shall wait and see!”
After warning Niamh, Naya started to walk away without stopping. It was as if she was afraid that Niamh would see through her if she was any slower.
However, Niamh already knew the truth. It was just that it was covered by a veil.
“Judging from her arrogant appearance, I think she’s quite sure that the thug who took the blame for her won’t expose her.” Ava walked over slowly. Niamh then turned around and handed the phone to Ava. “Ava, you should call Dan first and ask where he is.”
“I don’t think that’s necessary anymore.” Ava sighed with a smile. “Naya’s appearance means that Dan won’t be able to meet me anymore. All of this is Naya’s fault.”
“If that’s the case, I think it’s necessary to find evidence of Naya’s crime as soon as possible.” Niamh’s expression also became a little more serious. “The previous evidence couldn’t be established because the thug who took Chloe’s money suddenly pleaded guilty. It must mean that someone had talked to him.”
Ava seemed to have figured out something the second after she heard what Niamh said.
“Niamh, I see what you mean. You’re saying there’s still someone out there who can prove that Naya is the real perpetrator?”
“This person must exist, but we don’t know who it is yet.”
Niamh started contemplating for a short while. Then, she gave Ava comfort and encouragement.
“The person Naya wanted to harm was you, but Dan ended up facing the disaster for you. Ava, you and Dan are my good friends. Both of you were by my side when I was at my most helpless. You can rest assured, Ava. I’ll definitely not let Naya continue to go unpunished like this. Just leave this to Kendrick and me. I’ll definitely bring her to justice.”
Ava felt much more at ease after Niamh said that.
On the other hand, Neil was still waiting for Ava in the hospital. He thought he was able to see his precious daughter today, but Ava never showed up even after he waited for a long time. Finally, he received a message.
Ava was not coming.
She informed him via a text message, which showed how much she did not want to talk to her biological father.
Neil felt lost and helpless, but more than anything else, he was remorseful.
If they had not failed as her parents back then, this would not be happening now.
There was a reason for all of this.
Graham Manor.
Naya was sitting beside Daniel with a sad expression at this moment. Her charming face was full of endless desolation, and there were even hypocritical tears in the corners of her eyes. In addition to that, her tone was soft and weak. “Dan, why did you go to meet another woman without telling me? We grew up as childhood sweethearts, and I’m your fiancée now. I love you so much. I really don’t want to see you get too close with other women, especially Ava. She has already harmed you enough.”
Daniel’s expression was calm, but his thick eyebrows were deeply furrowed.
“I don’t think she’s the kind of person you made her out to be. Plus, she asked me out just to take me to the doctor. She knows a neurologist who’s an authoritative figure in the field and can help me quickly recover my memory.”
“Don’t listen to her nonsense!” Daniel’s mother, who was on the other side, denied it coldly. “If such a doctor exists, do you think the Grahams wouldn’t know about them? They’re all lies that woman made up to deceive you! Dan, promise Naya you won’t go see that vixen again.”
The word ‘vixen’ sounded very unpleasant in Daniel’s ears. He did not reply to his mother directly. Instead, he just said he was not feeling well and went upstairs to his room.
Naya could tell that Daniel was protective of Ava, so she clenched her fists in dissatisfaction.
She looked at Daniel’s mother with reluctance. “ Mrs. Graham, I think you saw that too. Even though Dan has lost his memories, he seems to still have feelings for that woman. I think we only have one solution to get rid of all future problems.”
Daniel’s mother knew that something was up when she looked into Naya’s eyes.
“What do you have in mind?” Daniel’s mother asked curiously.
Naya averted her gaze and made sure that Daniel had gone upstairs. She then got close to Daniel’s mother and spoke in a low voice.
“Mrs. Graham, Dan thinks I’m engaged to him now, so we’ll use this to our advantage and set a wedding date. As long as Dan and J are married, it’s useless even if Ava makes a fuss.”
After listening to Naya’s suggestion, Daniel’s mother seemed hesitant.
She had her own plans in mind. The reason she agreed to let Daniel date Ava back then was because she knew that Ava’s mother was the richest person in F Country.
It was certainly a good thing to have a wealthy in- law.
However, Daniel had gotten into a car accident, and with Old Master Graham’s nagging, Daniel’s mother had started to blame Ava again. In contrast, she felt that Naya was more suitable for Daniel.
At least, relatively speaking, Naya was more obedient to her words.
Upon thinking of this, Daniel’s mother decided that she should stop hesitating.
When Naya saw that Daniel’s mother was still thinking about it, she started to win her over by saying, “Mrs. Graham, I know it hasn’t been easy for you to raise Dan for so many years. Danis so excellent because of your hard work over the years. I’ve already thought about it. When our wedding date is set, I’ll ask my daddy to privately transfer one million to you as a way of thanking you for your hard work in raising Dan for so many years.”
Daniel’s mother was still a little hesitant at first, but when Naya said this, her eyes suddenly lit up.
“Naya, you’re really sensible. I’ll be much more at ease in the future with such a considerate daughter- in-law.” Daniel’s mother agreed immediately. “By the way, when do you want the wedding date to be?”
“The sooner the better.” Naya did not want to wait another moment. “Let’s set it for next Sunday. What do you think, Mrs. Graham?” Daniel’s mother agreed, “Okay. The date you suggested is good. Naya, don’t call me ‘Mrs. Graham’ anymore; just call me ‘Mom?’ like Dan.” When Naya heard what Daniel’s mother said, she was instantly elated.
Sure enough, Daniel’s mother was still so easy to bribe.
When the wedding date was officially set, she would find another excuse to con Daniel’s mother. That way, the one million dollars would never reach the hands of Daniel’s mother.
Naya already had her plan and was just waiting now. In the evening, Daniel came downstairs for dinner. When the family was sitting at the dining table for dinner, Daniel’s mother pretended to inadvertently mention the wedding. In reality, she was doing that on purpose.
“Dan, during this period, you should take good care of your body at home. Don’t go anywhere. Your wedding with Naya is coming soon, so make sure nothing goes wrong.”
Daniel stopped eating immediately. “Wedding?”
“Yeah, you’re getting married to Naya next Sunday,” Daniel’s mother affirmed. “You lost your memory, so you don’t remember anything. You even forgot such an important day, but don’t worry. I’ll take care of everything for you, so you can just happily marry Naya when the time comes.”
After hearing what his mother said, Daniel frowned and fell into deep thought.
