His fingers slightly moved, arms drawing closer, he held her in his embrace, eyes gently closing. Ava Sterling slept all the way home. After a nap, she felt much better, more energetic, and by the time they got off the car, she was in quite a good mood. The lights in the villa were already on, even though the sky wasn’t dark yet, the lights made the place more lively. Ava liked brightness, not darkness. She really liked this kind of light. Getting out of the car, she went straight towards the villa, but after a few steps, she remembered something and stopped, then turned to look at Poe Vaughn. Poe had also gotten out of the car and walked over with steady steps. Ava’s eyes flickered, then she quickly walked over, holding his arm and whispered into his ear, "Is Grandma still at home?" She had asked him this question while at the company, but he hadn’t answered. However, since he had personally come to pick her up, it was probably because of the old lady. The old lady was at home. Though she thought so, she wasn’t sure, and so Ava still wanted to ask. The warm, fragrant breath hit him; it was her scent, one he was long familiar with. A deep voice rumbled from his throat, his eyes looking forward, not breaking his pace. Ava followed his steps, and upon hearing his answer, she smiled instantly. The old lady was really at home. Otherwise, how could he have possibly come to pick her up himself? A smile uplifted the corners of her mouth, and Ava’s face revealed a beautiful smile full of happiness, contentment, and joy. Just as if her relationship with Poe was really good. In front of the old lady, they had to show that their relationship was good. As they walked into the living room, the voice of Yulian came over: "The Third Young Master and Young Madam are back?" Yulian was carrying a dish out, and upon seeing them, her face was full of smiles. ɪꜰ ʏᴏᴜ ᴡᴀɴᴛ ᴛᴏ ʀᴇᴀᴅ ᴍᴏʀᴇ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs, ᴘʟᴇᴀsᴇ ᴠɪsɪᴛ Nove1Fire.net Ava said, "Yes, we’re back." "Oh, where’s Grandma?" Ava looked around but didn’t see Sharon Sheridan. Was the old lady not here? "Hehe, the old Madame is in the kitchen." Just as Yulian said this, Sharon Sheridan’s voice came out: "Grandma is here." Ava immediately looked over and saw Sharon carrying out a bowl of vegetables. Yulian quickly went over to take it, and Ava also immediately went over: "Grandma, are you cooking tonight?" Arriving in front of Sharon, Ava asked, her eyelashes fluttering. Sharon held her hand, smiling broadly: "Grandma didn’t cook, just watching over and supervising." After speaking, Sharon looked at Ava’s face and asked, "How is it? Are you feeling better? Still have a fever? Any discomfort?" This was what Sharon cared about most. Ava’s eyebrows curved into a bright smile: "I’m better!" "Absolutely fine now!" "If you don’t believe me, feel my forehead." Saying that, Ava took Sharon’s hand to feel her forehead, and Sharon really touched it, feeling her temperature; she seemed really fever-free. Ava looked at Sharon smilingly, her eyes full of laughter, without any defense. When Sharon withdrew her hand, Ava said: "So, is it better?" Sharon nodded with a smile: "Feels like no fever anymore, but still, we should have a doctor look at you." She said while looking at Yulian, who arranged the dishes and said: "I’ll call the doctor." Sharon meant to have a doctor carefully check Ava, and Yulian understood this very well. Soon, Yulian headed to the inner yard. Ava instinctively wanted to say there was no need, but seeing Yulian going towards the inner yard and not outside, she was puzzled and said: "The doctor is at home?" "Of course, you’re still recovering, Grandma is worried, so naturally the doctor needs to be at home." While speaking, Sharon pulled Ava to sit on the sofa, completely forgetting about Poe Vaughn. When Poe came in, he went straight upstairs, completely unconcerned about Ava and Sharon. He wasn’t worried about these two at all. Especially with Sharon around. Soon, the doctor arrived, and Sharon urged the doctor to check Ava to see if she was really better. The doctor didn’t delay, opened the medical box, took Ava’s temperature, felt her pulse, and after about twenty minutes, the doctor said: "Much better." "Madam’s condition has improved a lot since noon." Hearing this, Sharon was relieved: "Good, thank you, doctor." Ava laughed: "You see, I told you I’d be well soon, wasn’t lying, was I?" Sharon gently patted Ava’s hand, her smile exceedingly kind: "Yes, not lying, Ana didn’t deceive Grandma." "Of course, I wouldn’t deceive anyone." "I’ve always been healthy, recover from illnesses quickly, they never linger, rest assured fully." Ava was very confident because that was her experience over the years. She had long been sure of it. "Haha, good, Grandma is rest assured." "Come, let’s go have dinner, hungry? Grandma had Yulian cook many of your favorite dishes, make sure to eat plenty later." The two headed to the dining table as Poe Vaughn also came downstairs at this time. Yulian and Yuwei had already arranged the dishes, and upon seeing Poe coming down, Yuwei called out: "Third Young Master, dinner is ready." And hearing Yuwei’s words, Sharon then remembered there was another person, she turned and looked at the person walking over, Poe Vaughn had already changed into home attire, no longer appearing so cold and ruthless. Sharon said: "Xiaobo, did you come back with Ana?" Sharon didn’t know, but she could guess. However, she still wanted to ask. Upon hearing Sharon’s question, Ava quickly said before Poe could answer: "Grandma, Poe came to pick me up." "We came back together." Sharon blinked and said: "Was Xiao Bo the one to pick up Ana?" "He picked me up from outside my company, we came back together." To prove how good Poe was to her, Ava reiterated it. Sharon nodded: "Not bad, that’s how it should be." "Ana is ill now, Xiaobo needs to be especially caring, otherwise Grandma won’t let him off." Sharon said, her expression turning stern, as if she would use harsh methods if Poe wasn’t good to her. Ava quickly said: "He’s been very considerate, took care of me all night, Grandma shouldn’t scold him anymore." "If Grandma scolds him, I would feel sad too." As Ava spoke, she showed a sad expression, Sharon hurriedly said: "Alright, alright, won’t say it, Grandma won’t say it anymore." Whatever Ava said was right, Sharon liked everything she said. Ava immediately beamed, wrapping her arm around Sharon’s and smiled sweetly: "Grandma is the best!" "Haha, our Ana is also very good." Soon, they sat at the dining table and had dinner together. With Sharon there, the atmosphere at the table was always great. Sharon had Poe pick food for Ava, and Poe did so, while taking this opportunity, Ava teased Poe for being picky, purposely picking what he didn’t really like to eat, making him eat it. Sharon hearing this kept a straight face, saying he couldn’t be picky, had to eat everything, especially what Ana picked, even if he didn’t want to eat it, he had to. Thus, Poe ate all the food Ava picked for him. In Ava’s eyes, she was relying on Sharon’s authority to prevent Poe from bullying her. But actually, it was a coordinated effort between the grandmother and granddaughter to make her happy. Seeing Poe eat all the food she picked for him, Ava was so happy, she even ate an extra bowl of rice. "Grandma hasn’t been to this side yet, come on, Ana, Xiaobo, let’s go out for a walk." After dinner, Sharon invited them for a walk. Ava’s eyelashes flickered, looking at Poe. At this time, shouldn’t the old lady be heading back?
