Sharon Sheridan listened to what Mrs. Yu said and looked at the photos sent by Mrs. Wei. She couldn’t stop smiling, and the wrinkles on her face multiplied. "Very good, very good. At this rate, my great-grandchild won’t be far off." Mrs. Yu knew Sharon Sheridan would be pleased and laughed, saying, "Thanks to Mrs. Wei being smart and deliberately leaving space for the two, otherwise there wouldn’t have been this scene." Upon hearing this, Sharon Sheridan squinted her eyes and pondered, "It seems Mrs. Wei isn’t suitable to be at the Evergreen Villa frequently." Mrs. Yu paused, and said, "You mean not letting Mrs. Wei take care of Master and Mistress’s daily living?" Sharon Sheridan shook her head, still looking at the mess in the photo on her phone, saying, "She still needs to take care of them, but she can’t live there anymore." Mrs. Yu probably understood, "Then I’ll tell Mrs. Wei, make sure she prepares daily meals for Master and Mistress, tidies up the house, finishes up, and leaves, not staying in the house for long." Sharon Sheridan said, "I’ll tell her." Mrs. Yu nodded, "Okay." There must be other things the madam wants to instruct; she understands. Mrs. Wei was making breakfast when Sharon Sheridan’s call quickly came through. She dried her hands and answered the phone, "Madam." "Old Wei, from today onwards, prepare their daily meals, tidy the house a bit, and then leave, don’t stay in the house for long." With that said, Mrs. Wei understood, "Okay, I’ll finish breakfast and warm it up, send a message to the master, and then leave." "Hmm, then each time you come to the villa, look more carefully, pay extra attention, observe the situation between the two, be more cunning, and let me know if there’s anything that’s difficult to handle." "Understand, madam don’t worry, I’m aware." "Hmm, with you around, I’m at ease, go and get busy." Mrs. Wei hung up the phone and continued making breakfast, while on Sharon Sheridan’s end, she put down the phone, her eyes gleaming. We must create more opportunities for them, let them spend more time together, especially for Ava. Thinking of this, Sharon Sheridan looked at Mrs. Yu, "How’s the preparation for Ava’s birthday coming along?" On the day Ava Sterling told Sharon Sheridan when her birthday was, Sharon Sheridan arranged for people to prepare. Mrs. Yu smiled and said, "It’s almost done, you can go see it today." Sharon Sheridan nodded, "Hmm, after breakfast, we’ll go." With the bright and sunny day, everything illuminated. In the bedroom, Poe Vaughn’s eyes opened, looking at the faint light coming through the curtains, his eyes squinted slightly. A brand new day has arrived, silently yet swiftly. His eyes moved slightly, looking at the person in his arms. Ava Sterling was still sleeping, deeply immersed in sleep, her face showing none of her usual bold and brazen demeanor, instead appearing tender and meek. She was like a sleeping little tiger in his arms, incredibly soft, incredibly adorable, making one want to tease. ɪꜰ ʏᴏᴜ ᴡᴀɴᴛ ᴛᴏ ʀᴇᴀᴅ ᴍᴏʀᴇ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs, ᴘʟᴇᴀsᴇ ᴠɪsɪᴛ novel⁂fire.net Carefully, he lifted her hand from his waist and then moved aside, separating his body from where it was close to her. Ava Sterling’s brows furrowed slightly. He was still inside her, not having left. With him moving away, her body seemed empty, causing subconscious discomfort. However, she was too sleepy, merely furrowing her brows before quickly falling back into a deep sleep. Poe Vaughn looked at her face, once again at rest, covered her well with the blanket, got out of bed, and went to the bathroom. Soon, the sound of running water echoed, yet Ava Sterling didn’t awaken. Poe Vaughn finished washing, changed into clean shirt and trousers, and went downstairs. Downstairs was quiet, as if it remained the same as last night. Yet, it was different. The mess from last night was gone, along with the faint lingering scent in the air; everything returned to its original state. Poe Vaughn looked at the sofa, as clean and tidy as usual, his gaze falling onto the kitchen. Mrs. Wei had already left, but faint breakfast aromas lingered in the air. Poe Vaughn walked steadily downstairs, entering the kitchen, neither hurried nor slow. The kitchen was spotless, but the smell inside was rich. Mrs. Wei had already prepared breakfast, keeping it warm in the pot. Poe Vaughn looked at the breakfast, then took out his phone. Mrs. Wei: [Sir, breakfast is ready. After you and madam have finished, leave it there, and I’ll come to tidy up later.] The meaning was clear, Mrs. Wei knew. Moreover, Sharon Sheridan also knew. Without Sharon Sheridan’s instructions, Mrs. Wei wouldn’t say this. Poe Vaughn put away his phone, took the breakfast, sat at the dining table, and silently ate. After breakfast, he got into the car and left the villa for the company. The villa fell into stillness once more, even feeling asleep with Ava Sterling’s slumber. However, at this time, inside Ava Sterling’s car. Her phone was ringing. It was Lauren’s call. Lauren had gone to The Kestrel Apartments early in the morning, first rang the doorbell, then entered directly by entering the password when no one opened the door. Upon entering, it was empty inside, with no sign of Ava Sterling, just like last night. Last night, Jace Kingsley called her, asking if Ava Sterling had any plans, as Ava Sterling hurriedly left after dinner. Lauren said she didn’t, her priority was recovery now. So, obviously, Ava Sterling went off to do something unknown. Thus, after ending the call with Jace Kingsley, she completed her work and went directly to Ava Sterling’s place. Yet, Ava Sterling wasn’t home, neither answering calls nor responding to messages. No one knew where she went. Nonetheless, she wasn’t worried, Ava Sterling wasn’t one to be easily pushed around, she just returned, waiting for Ava Sterling to respond. But Ava Sterling hadn’t responded, so early this morning, she again went to Ava Sterling’s apartment to check if she was there. Surprisingly, no one was home again. The phone remained unanswered, and the messages from last night remained unread, almost like the phone wasn’t with her. Lauren frowned, wondering what was going on? Is she now completely elusive, appearing only occasionally? Though Lauren always trusted Ava Sterling, aside from Ava Sterling’s wild moments, not coming home or communicating for the whole night made Lauren somewhat concerned. She sent another message to Ava Sterling, telling her to reply immediately upon seeing, then left The Kestrel Apartments. Once finished, she would prepare to go with Ava Sterling to Jace Kingsley’s place, as Jace Kingsley invited her and Ava Sterling for a meal at his Silvermist Isles villa today. She understood Jace Kingsley’s intentions, wanting Ava Sterling to feel comfortable around her, and hoping she could assist in strengthening their relationship. She was willing to help because Jace Kingsley was truly good and, most importantly, was good to Ava Sterling. Lauren left The Kestrel Apartments and headed to the company. Meanwhile, outside the apartment, in a seemingly inconspicuous black car parked. The person inside watched Lauren drive off, then dialed a phone number.
