She called her husband, but after seeing Mrs. Vaughn being taken away by the young man, she completely forgot about him. Only now did she remember. She wondered if her husband had come over, hoping he wouldn’t be standing alone. Thinking of this, Sister Wei quickly said to Ava Sterling, "Mrs. Vaughn, I’m going out to make a call." Ava was listening intently. Hearing Sister Wei’s words, she waved her hand without turning her head, "You go ahead." Sister Wei hurriedly took out her phone and went outside, dialing Poe Vaughn’s number immediately. The Bentley cruised steadily amidst the traffic, Poe’s eyes fixated on the scenery ahead, deep and unwavering, revealing no hint of emotion. Quentin Quinn finished his instructions and hung up the phone, watching the person in the rearview mirror. His face was like a calm sea, tranquil and serene, with no trace of any anomaly, as if his heart was equally undisturbed, immune to any storm. But Quentin knew, it wasn’t the case. At times , the calmer President Vaughn appeared, the more terrifying he became. Involuntarily, his heart trembled a bit, praying for President Vaughn’s half-brother. Although this child is wild, unruly, and acts on whims, he is inherently kind-hearted, without ill intentions. Under normal circumstances, it would be fine, but provoking President Vaughn, regardless of one’s nature or blood relation, would not be met with mercy. This child is really going to suffer a setback. The phone vibrated, breaking the terrifying silence inside the car. Quentin instantly pulled himself together, pushing all thoughts aside. After today’s incident, he’s certain that Ava Sterling is not to be provoked. In the future, he has to treat Ava Sterling like a revered ancestor to ensure peace of mind. Poe took out the phone, glanced at it, then used his thumb to answer, "Hello." "Sir, did you arrive?" Hearing Poe’s voice, Sister Wei felt a great sense of relief. Sister Wei’s heart tightened, promptly asking, "Then where are you now?" Poe held the phone, eyes focused ahead, "I saw what happened just now, it won’t happen again." Sister Wei still wanted to inform Poe that they were no longer on Alaric Avenue, but surprisingly, Poe had already seen it, making her quite stupefied. Did Mr. Poe arrive so quickly? Though unexpected, Sister Wei reacted quickly and said, "Alright, alright, Mrs. Vaughn and I are no longer on Alaric Avenue; we’ve gone to the store to buy turtle food, don’t worry, sir." "Okay, call me if there’s anything." As long as she was by Mrs. Vaughn’s side, she would immediately inform Mr. Poe if anything happened. Sister Wei hung up the phone, fully relieved. Since Mr. Poe had seen it, she too could be at ease. However, Mr. Poe surely wouldn’t have expected that our Mrs. Vaughn was so formidable, directly putting that young man in his place, exuding such dominance. Come to think of it, she didn’t expect it either, quite impressive. Our Mrs. Vaughn is not one to be easily manipulated, that’s good! With peace of mind, Sister Wei felt relaxed, returning to the store with a smile. Meanwhile, Ava had already paid the bill. She had asked all she wanted to ask and was ready to pay and go home. And Jace Kingsley hadn’t lied; her Brazilian turtle really only cost a few dollars, and the turtle food was also just a few bucks, incredibly cheap. She never would have thought. But, she was very happy. Pets aren’t about how expensive or cheap they are; they’re about affection and fate. She felt a strong connection with this little turtle, falling for it at first sight. "Are you done, Mrs. Vaughn?" Seeing Ava paying, Sister Wei asked. Ava smiled back, "Of course, I’ve understood everything, let’s go back." Ava held a small bag in her hand, containing turtle food. It was a tiny bag, but it would last a long time. Once it’s finished, she’ll come back to buy more. Seeing the smile on Ava’s face, her joy, Sister Wei was also happy. The two of them returned, having experienced a few bumps on the way here, but going back was smooth sailing. Once home, Ava started playing with the little turtle, even taking it out of the tank to let it crawl on the floor, while she held her phone, busy taking pictures or videos, occupied all by herself. Sister Wei had never seen Ava so fond of something, endlessly liking it, it made her can’t help but laugh. In the blink of an eye, it was four o’clock, and Sister Wei checked the time, ready to start preparing dinner, "Mrs. Vaughn, what would you like for dinner? I’ll start preparing now." Ava thought she should make an album to document her days with the little one, doing this upon returning had made her completely forget about her promise to have dinner with Jace Kingsley tonight. Presently, she was browsing her phone, looking up ideas on how to make an interesting album. This text is hosted at noveⅼfire.net When Sister Wei’s voice came, she casually said without turning her head, "Anything." After all, she’s not as picky as Poe Vaughn, as long as it’s not terribly made, it’s fine for her. Seeing how focused she was, Sister Wei didn’t disturb her, and upon receiving an answer, she returned to the kitchen to start preparing. However, something crossed her mind, prompting her to take out her phone to call Poe Vaughn. She didn’t know if Mr. Poe would be home for dinner. If he came back, she’d make a bit more. In the living room, the little turtle seemed to get tired from crawling and stopped moving, having perhaps found a snug spot, even closing its eyes to sleep. Ava thought that the album has to be self-designed to make it unique and distinctive. She just liked things that are different. With this thought, Ava went to check on her little turtle, and at that moment realized something. She had said she would have dinner with Jace Kingsley tonight. Immediately, Sister Wei’s earlier question flashed in her mind, along with her own response. Ava stood up abruptly and rushed towards the kitchen, "Sister Wei, no need to cook, I’m dining out tonight!" In the kitchen, just as the dial tone started to connect on Sister Wei’s phone, she was about to speak when Ava’s voice came through. Sister Wei was taken aback, lowering the phone and looking at Ava who had rushed in, "Dining out?" "What’s the matter, Mrs. Vaughn, is something up?" Ava looked at the kitchen. Sister Wei already had the ingredients out, evidently ready to start meal prep. But fortunately, she hadn’t started cooking yet. She immediately said, "It’s nothing major, I just need to dine with a friend, it had been arranged before." "I had forgotten about it, only just remembered." "Oh, I see. Well then..." Sister Wei glanced at the ingredients on the countertop, suddenly forgetting about Poe Vaughn. Seeing Sister Wei’s expression, Ava immediately thought of Poe Vaughn and said, "Why don’t you ask Poe Vaughn if he’s coming home for dinner?" "If he’s coming back, you can cook for him, after all, he’s quite particular, and you know what he likes." Having said this, Ava went off without waiting for Sister Wei’s response. Only upon hearing Ava’s words did Sister Wei remember she was about to call Poe Vaughn, quickly picking up her phone to check. The call was connecting.
