Chapter 6
James could not help but startle
When Ava looked at him just now, her
s seemed to be filled with murderous intent.
Despite the October heat in Rosemont, the girl exuded an icy presence.
“Take another look, and I’ll gouge your eyes out!” Ava’s words were direct and unapologetic.
James, a mere pawn of the Walker family, had set his sights on her in a previous life when she was held captive.
There was a time when he attempted to take advantage of her, but fortunately, she kicked him right where it hurt, Otherwise, he might have succeeded.
James shivered, momentarily feeling like he had encountered a demon from hell.
He realized what Ava said, and the gleam of fury flickered in his eyes
As he suspected, Ava was a wild girl from a small town, lacking proper upbringing and prone to using course and impolite language.
Tve been calling you for a while. Why didn’t you answer when the madam called?”
Ava ignored him
James seethed with frustration “Hey, I’m talking to you?”
“Oh, really” I thought it was a dog barking
eto strike. He had never encountered such a disrespectful person before.
James suppressed the urge to
However, he could not deny that Ava’s face was truly captivating James could not help but feel a slight itch as he looked at her
He knew better than to have any ill intentions toward Sophia, but Ava was not the true daughter of the Walker family. Perhaps he could do whatever he wanted to her without anyone punishing him.
Just as James‘ phone suddenly rang, he answered it with a quick change to a fawning expression on his face.
“Yes, Mrs. Walker. She didn’t answer the door earlier, but I’ve found her, and she’ll be there soon. Yes, Mrs. Walker, I apologize for the delay. Please
Wat a moment‘
“Let’s go!”
Continuing to argue with Ava here would only be detrimental to him.
James glanced at Ava, who was
was only holding a slightly worn suitcase.
Just as he expected, she was a pauper.:
Once she entered the Walker family, she probably would cling on and refuse to leave.
On the other hand, Ava’s thoughts were quite the opposite. She had no intention of staying with the Walker family for too long.
A black Rolls–Royce was parked at the entrance of the alley, with Melissa Inside.
As if sensing something, Melissa looked over.
I had been years since she had seen her daughter. More than a decade had passed in the blink of an eye.
She could not help but be taken aback.
She was not sure if this really was her daughter.
Ava could be described as an otherworldly beauty.
As luck would have it, she met Ava’s gaze
She could not believe the look Awa had in her eyes
There was no excitement, joy of reunion after a long separation, or admiration for her mother–only a decisive coldness with a hint of underlying hostility.
Melissa could not help but shiver.
Chapter 1
Ava had already lowered her gaze when Melisa looked again, appearing calm and unaffected. It seemed that the glimpse before was just Melissa’s imagination
After placing the suitcase in the back seat of the car, Ava opened the door and sat inside,
James noticed that Ava did not even call Melissa “mother.”
His contempt deepened.
Melissa fch embarrassed too
However, she remembered David’s words.
“You said she has Rh–negative blood! Why haven’t I heard you mention it before? David cleared his throat. “Well, bring her over to live with us. It’s just a matter of an extra mouth to feed. Besides, Sophia also has Rh–negative blood.”
Sophia had been sick since childhood. Melissa and David had taken great care of her.
Melissa understood the implied meaning behind David’s words.
As long as Ava was kept at home, she could be useful if anything happened to Sophia and she needed a blood transfusion. In their eyes, Ava was nothing more than a blood bank for Sophia.
Disgust filled her eyes even more.
Over a decade ago, when she became pregnant, she had considered having an abortion.
But the doctor said she had already had abortions before, and if she did not want this child, she would never have the chance to conceive again.
Forced into a comer, she found a man to be Ava’s father, and after giving birth to Ava, divorced him and sended the matter with a sum of money
After all, divorce sounded better than being an unwed mother.
She left a when she was just two years old
Years later, she married David and successfully gained Sophia’s love. Sophia was only Eve at the time.
The two of them were as close as mother and daughter.
Those unaware of the specifics believed that Melissa was Sophia’s biological mother.
Her only regret was that, after all these years, she still had not gotten pregnant and given birth to a child of her own with David.
