The name appeared clearly on the screen, and Vincent Donovan smiled as he answered the call, "Finished with work?" He asked this as soon as he spoke, with a hint of teasing. At this moment, he finally understood why Ethan Ainsworth always found amusement in this person. It’s indeed rare to see this person care so much about someone. The car smoothly drove on the road as Poe Vaughn flipped through his documents. Hearing the amused voice on the phone, he paused and said, "Is she awake?" He flipped the pages of the document, his expression unchanged. Vincent Donovan’s smile deepened as he continued walking forward, "I was just about to call you, and then your call came." Updates are released by NoveI-Fire.ɴet "She seems energetic, eats well, and aside from a bit of pain, everything else is fine." Knowing Poe Vaughn cared, he didn’t hold back and directly shared Ava Sterling’s condition. While talking, Vincent Donovan’s smile didn’t diminish at all. Other girls might be in pain or fragile, but Ava Sterling bounced back full of life after a night’s sleep, everything fine except for not being able to move too much. After this simple response, there was silence, with only the sound of turning pages and the car moving. Vincent Donovan laughed, "She seems to have forgotten we’ve met before. When do you have time to properly introduce us?" A hint of surprise flashed in Vincent Donovan’s eyes; no rush? They’re already married, so why isn’t he introducing them? If he didn’t care, that’d be one thing, but he clearly cares a lot, and now Vincent couldn’t quite figure it out. Poe Vaughn hung up the phone just as Vincent Donovan entered the office, the busy signal was still buzzing. He looked at the call duration, just two minutes. But for him to spare two minutes from his busy schedule to care about someone was already quite something. Vincent Donovan shook his head with a smile, sat down, and adjusted Ava Sterling’s treatment plan. If Ava Sterling’s condition continued to improve, she could be discharged in ten days, maybe less than two weeks. Poe Vaughn finished the call and spoke, "Redo the project proposal." Quentin Quinn, sitting in the front, wasn’t surprised by this news. He had reviewed the proposal, and his first impression was that it would be rejected. With President Vaughn now asking for a redo, his intuition was proven correct, "Understood." "Clear my schedule for tonight." Quentin Quinn was about to make a call to pass on these instructions when Poe Vaughn’s words caught his attention again, causing him to stop and look in the rearview mirror at the person behind him. The documents were tossed aside, and Poe Vaughn leaned back in his seat, eyes closed. Quentin Quinn thought of Ava Sterling, guessing that President Vaughn was planning to visit his wife in the evening. In the hospital room. Ava Sterling was well-fed and well-rested, feeling wide awake and in very good spirits. She didn’t want to lie in bed anymore, not being the type to stay idle. Forcing her to lie still while fully awake was unbearable. She initially wanted to ask Lauren Howell to wheel her outside for a stroll, but as the words were about to leave her mouth, Vincent Donovan’s instructions came to mind, and she swallowed the words back down. She had to endure, no matter what! Especially in the first few days! So, Ava Sterling directly instructed Lauren Howell, "Turn on the TV, I want to watch TV. Put on some good movies and dramas!" Lauren Howell had been in the hospital room the whole time, and after Vincent Donovan left, she was eager to express her feelings, but one look from Ava Sterling shut her up, leaving her only to sit on the sofa, snacking and getting excited by herself. Hearing Ava Sterling’s instructions now, she didn’t dare delay and immediately grabbed the remote to turn on the TV. It wasn’t easy to watch local TV from abroad, but fortunately, this wasn’t the first time Lauren Howell set up TV for Ava Sterling overseas, so apart from the complicated operation, nothing else was a problem. Soon, the TV started playing the currently popular fantasy drama. Lauren Howell said, "You’ve been busy lately, no time to watch TV. This drama is the most popular right now. I saw the trailers, and they’re quite good, with a lot of online discussions." "Most importantly, the costumes, props, and actors’ performances are all excellent, and the production values are high, which suits your taste." It had indeed been a while since Ava Sterling watched TV, so this was a perfect opportunity. She didn’t respond to Lauren Howell, simply focusing on the TV as it turned on. Watching TV was one of her true hobbies. Lauren Howell joined her, sitting down to watch together, while munching on fruit and feeding Ava Sterling. Just like that, the two of them leisurely enjoyed their time. The atmosphere was indeed pleasant. But just at that moment...
