Eric is going to talk to her about these models today, right? After taking a day off yesterday, Eric will definitely contact her today. Thinking about this, Ava’s face tightened. What time is it now? Where is her phone? Ava immediately looked around, not seeing her phone, but she did see the time on the bedside table. Ava’s face darkened immediately as she began searching her bed. She needs to call Eric, or maybe Eric called her and she missed it. Maybe everyone is looking for her right now. Thinking of this, Ava’s expression became even more serious. This is her job, her job can’t have issues. However, Ava searched all over her bed and still couldn’t find her phone; it wasn’t on the bedside table either. Where did she put her phone? It seems that this hangover has made her brain sluggish, Ava’s mind is dull and rusty, completely forgetting that she didn’t bring her phone in and it’s still in the car. Ava sat on the bed, trying to recall, but couldn’t remember for a moment, and just then, there was a click and the door opened. Ava froze, looking over in an instant. But as she looked, she was stunned. Looking at the person outside coming into view as the door opened, Ava couldn’t react. Lunch was already prepared, Sharon Sheridan personally came upstairs to see if Ava had woken up. She tried to open the door quietly, so as not to disturb Ava, but she didn’t expect as soon as the door opened to see the person sitting on the bed, looking surprised. Sharon Sheridan was also stunned for a moment, not expecting Ava to be awake already. But she quickly reacted, smiling and walking in: "Ava’s awake?" "Is your body feeling better?" "Come, let Grandma take a look." Sharon Sheridan sat on the bed and reached out to touch Ava’s forehead. The elderly woman’s skin was wrinkled and not as smooth as a young person’s, a bit rough on Ava’s forehead but extremely warm. The tension inside Ava gradually relaxed, her whole body softened, she blinked her lashes and looked at the kind person in front of her: "Grandma, why are you here?" The warmth from the forehead in Sharon Sheridan’s palm was normal, neither hot nor cold, it was a healthy temperature. This gentle voice fell into her ears, Sharon Sherian’s smile broadened, but soon enough, she did indeed show reproach. And this reproach was not aimed at Ava but at Poe Vaughn. "Ava is sick, how could Grandma not come?" "It’s all because of young Poe, that kid didn’t take care of Ava, that’s why our Ava had to suffer so much." Sharon Sheridan directly blamed Poe Vaughn, Ava opened her mouth, stunned, quickly said, "No, it’s not him, it’s because of myself, last night I..." Ava’s words stopped abruptly. What? Do I have to tell Grandma everything that happened last night? So quickly, Ava said: "Last night I..." "What do you mean no? What do you mean it’s not him? It’s definitely him." "If he had taken care of Ava, how could Ava have gotten sick?" "Look at this face, it’s all haggard." Sharon Sheridan didn’t seem to notice Ava’s pause, interrupting Ava’s words and touched her face, full of heartache. "Our Ava was sick and got thinner than before, Grandma feels really sad to see this." Ava couldn’t react to this. Wasn’t she feeling unwell because of drinking last night? Why was it considered sickness? Could it be that...Poe Vaughn said this to the elderly lady? Looking at the concerned old woman with a face full of heartache, Ava felt it must be. Otherwise, if the elderly knew she drank so much, she certainly wouldn’t be pleased. No elder likes their juniors to be like a drunkard, right? Suddenly, Ava felt a sense of admiration for Poe Vaughn. In order to prevent the elderly from knowing she drank like a madman, he took the blame himself and let the elderly think he didn’t take good care of her. "Haha...no, it’s just a little discomfort, I’m fine now, Grandma, you don’t have to worry." "What do you mean ’just a little’? You are really uncomfortable, look at your little face, no energy at all." "And at such a time young Poe actually went to the office, really thoughtless, too inconsiderate. When he comes back, Grandma will teach him a lesson, a severe one, to vent Ava’s anger!" As Sharon Sheridan spoke, her expression became serious, as if she was going to punish Poe Vaughn with rules. Ava quickly said: "It’s not his fault, really!" "It’s on me, he’s already been very good to me, he was taking care of me all night, if you don’t believe it, Grandma, ask Mrs. Wei, Mrs. Wei definitely knows!" Although last night’s scene was chaotic, Ava clearly knew it was Poe Vaughn who took care of her. There’s no doubt about it. Newest update provided by novel⚑fire.net Otherwise, why would she be in his bedroom instead of hers? So, Poe Vaughn shouldn’t be punished. He’s already done well enough, if he’s punished, it would be perfect beyond perfection, and when it’s time to end their agreement, she’s afraid she’d be reluctant. No, he should have a few faults so that when she leaves, she won’t have any regrets. Sharon Sheridan looked at the concern and strong defense for Poe Vaughn in Ava’s eyes and felt amused. This child, truly adorably foolish. "Let’s not talk about that now, are you hungry?" "Lie down first, Grandma will ask Mrs. Wei to bring lunch up." Sharon Sheridan spoke and was about to leave, but at that moment Ava remembered something important, quickly said: "Grandma, don’t bother, I have something to deal with, I’ll go downstairs to make a call first." After that, Ava quickly got off the bed, stumbling, and ran out. While Sharon Sheridan stood there, unable to react. What’s the matter? Running so fast? Ava couldn’t find her phone, couldn’t recall where she left it, so she went downstairs to make a call using the antique phone. "Sorry, the number you called is currently on another call, please try again later..." Already on a call, could it be they are looking for her? Ava thought and dialed another number, Lauren Howell’s. Meanwhile, at The Kestrel Apartments. Lauren Howell was in Ava’s apartment, observing the place had no signs of anyone returning, clean and tidy, she held the phone to Eric: "She hasn’t come back, can’t find her." "I’ve looked everywhere, can’t find her at all." No mistake, Eric called Ava early this morning to tell her that everything was sorted and to let her come back to teach this group of models. But when she called Ava, Ava didn’t answer. Initially, she didn’t worry too much and sent Ava a message. She knew Ava would go to the office after seeing the message. However, by nine o’clock, she was informed that Ava hadn’t shown up, it dawned on her that something might be wrong with Ava, so she called Ava again, still no answer. She immediately called Lauren Howell to ask about Ava’s status, and then started searching for Ava. Because Lauren Howell also didn’t know Ava’s whereabouts. Since Ava left Silvermist Isles last night, she wasn’t seen again. Both were anxious, extremely worried, spent all morning calling, searching for Ava. Listening to Lauren Howell’s anxious voice, Eric’s heart sank, feeling uneasy. They had been searching for several hours without finding Ava; this couldn’t continue. So Eric said, "I’m going to call the police now." Lauren Howell immediately responded, "Okay!" Eric hung up and immediately dialed to report to the police. As Lauren Howell looked around, hands on hips, the sweat on her anxious forehead accumulated layer by layer. Couldn’t find Ava, and last night Young Master Kingsley told her Ava suddenly said she was cutting ties with him, this was no simple matter. So, something must have happened. If anything happened to Ava, she wouldn’t forgive herself. She had been by Ava’s side all along, she should have known Ava’s condition wasn’t right. Lauren Howell was extremely anxious, suddenly, something dawned upon her, picked up the phone to make a call. But at that moment, a call came in.
