Ava finished her class as usual, and when the alarm rang, she left immediately, without staying for even a minute or a second. However, just as she stepped out of the training room, someone rushed towards her at a speed that startled Ava. Ava looked at the person who suddenly appeared in front of her, Lauren, frowned and opened her lips to speak, but before she could, Lauren interrupted: "Ava, the Vaughn family’s old lady is here!" Lauren was quite anxious, speaking very quickly, directly into Ava’s ear. Ava’s expression showed surprise. The old lady came to Celeste? Countless question marks popped into her mind, but before she could react, Lauren hurriedly dragged her towards the elevator, speaking as she walked: "The old lady came here personally half an hour ago, with a servant named Mrs. You, and she brought a thermos, saying she heard from Mrs. Wei that you were not feeling well, so she came to see you." "I told the old lady you were in class, I went to call you, but was stopped by the old lady. She said she would wait for you to finish the class, no rush, and asked me to show her around the company." "Just five minutes ago, I brought the old lady back to the dressing room, had her wait there, and came down now to get you. The old lady is sitting on the couch in your dressing room, waiting for you." Lauren spoke quickly and walked quickly, by the time she finished speaking, Ava had already been taken into the elevator, and Ava knew the ins and outs of the situation. Mrs. Wei actually told the old lady that she was feeling unwell, and the old lady personally came over, something Ava truly didn’t expect. So, when Lauren finished, Ava stood in the elevator, quite stunned for a moment. Lauren saw Ava standing next to her, looking blankly, not knowing what she was thinking, she spoke: "Ava?" Ava snapped out of it and said: "The old lady is in the dressing room now?" She looked at Lauren, her thoughts returning. Lauren nodded: "Yes, waiting for you in the dressing room." "The old lady has been waiting for you for half an hour, I feel quite embarrassed, wanted to call you several times, but the old lady refused each time." "She said she was just here to see you, not to interrupt your work." "Ava, the old lady seems to value you a lot." Lauren spoke with excitement and joy in her eyes. Ava being valued by the Vaughn family’s old lady is truly a great thing, she must be happy. With the support of the Vaughn family’s matriarch, Ava will definitely not have to endure hard days anymore. Listening to Lauren’s excited words, looking at Lauren’s image of having grabbed onto a powerful ally, Ava was quite unwilling to see it. The old lady values her because she is currently Poe Vaughn’s nominal wife; if she ever stops being one, the old lady definitely won’t value her . She thought this not because she felt the old lady was too realistic, but because it was simply a fact. She has no blood relationship with the old lady, they are neither relatives nor friends, why would she value her? For example, she and Lauren, they are long-time friends, Lauren is sincere to her, and she feels the same way. People are only close when they have a connection; if the connection is gone, the closeness naturally disappears too. However, in her heart, the old lady is very good, even if it’s because of her relationship with Poe Vaughn through a factual marriage, she still likes the old lady. The old lady is optimistic and sees people and matters clearly, she is a very good person. Now the old lady heard she’s not feeling well and ran over from afar to see her, even came directly to her company, Ava felt very flattered. That feeling of being cared for and genuinely concerned is quite uplifting. Yet, Ava herself hasn’t gone to see the old lady, instead, the old lady came to see her, it truly shouldn’t be this way. Thinking about this, Ava felt warm inside, and her face showed a smile. A thought rapidly crossed her mind, Ava said to Lauren: "Do not reveal the old lady’s identity to anyone, not even a bit." Ava’s expression was serious, very serious. Because this was a very serious matter, the Vaughn family has always been low-key, and she mustn’t cause any trouble for them because of her. Lauren saw Ava smile and smiled as well, but upon hearing Ava’s words, her smile instantly faded, and she said immediately: "Who would I reveal it to?" "Is this something that can be casually talked about?" "I absolutely won’t say it, you can be assured!" Lauren is no fool, she is in this circle, and understands some matters very well, it’s safe to say that even without Ava mentioning it, she knew what to do. Ava looked at Lauren’s demeanor and her mind was at ease. Lauren has some abnormal aspects, but in other areas, she’s very good. She spoke , and Ava trusted her. The two talked, and the elevator stopped at Ava’s floor, she stepped out. "You go have lunch, you don’t need to worry about me, I’ll call you if anything comes up." "Alright, call me if you need anything too." Ava went to see the old lady, Lauren naturally felt assured and went about her business, while Ava directly went to the dressing room and opened the door. Sharon Sheridan and Mrs. You were in the dressing room, speaking softly. As soon as the door opened, their voices instantly stopped, looking over. ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ Nove1Fire.net Seeing Ava, Sharon Sheridan immediately showed a smile and stood up. Mrs. You immediately supported Sharon Sheridan to come over, and Ava hurriedly went over to hold Sharon Sheridan with an apologetic look: "Grandma, I’m sorry to have worried you." The moment she saw Sharon Sheridan’s loving face, Ava genuinely felt guilty. She was just slightly insomniac, not sleeping well, yet it caused the old lady to come over, it truly shouldn’t have been necessary. Once she returns, she’ll carefully remind Mrs. Wei not to speak to the old lady about her feeling unwell, not to make the elderly worry, that wouldn’t be good at all. Sharon Sheridan looked at Ava’s face, checked her spirits, and hearing her apologetic words, frowned and gently patted her hand: "What are you saying?" "You’re not feeling well, it wasn’t intentional, don’t talk like that." "Come, sit down, let Grandma have a good look at you." Sharon Sheridan guided Ava to the couch to sit down, carefully observing her complexion, and frowned: "Indeed, looks a bit pale, doesn’t look as spirited as before." Before Ava could answer, Sharon Sheridan continued: "Ava, don’t overwork, your health is most important." "In this world, nothing is more important than one’s own health." "Grandma knows it wasn’t easy for you in the past, so you always work hard, but hard days are gone, now are good days, and will be even better." "Don’t push yourself so hard." "You’ve married Poe, and you’re part of the Vaughn family now, and the Vaughn family will be your support from now. No matter what, you won’t live the hard life you had before." "Furthermore, Poe is very capable, earning a lot of money, enough to support you and your future children, don’t tire yourself out , it’s not worth it." Sharon Sheridan held Ava’s hand with great concern, genuinely caring, speaking in earnest. Listening to Sharon Sheridan’s words, a warm current surged in Ava’s heart, growing warmer. She hugged Sharon Sheridan’s arm, her head resting on Sharon Sheridan’s shoulder, very moved and said: "Grandma, you’re so good." No one has said such words to her for a long time, even though she knows she can’t really depend on the Vaughn family, hearing such words still made her happy. Sharon Sheridan thought Ava would say sweet words to ease her mind, but she didn’t expect such a soft and warm phrase, her face instantly showed a smile, becoming even more loving. "Grandma is good, our Ava is even better." Ava immediately nodded heavily: "Alright! Starting today, I’ll arrange my time well and definitely won’t push myself anymore!" She sat up, her expression very solemn and serious, causing Sharon Sheridan to burst into laughter. "With these words, Grandma feels relieved."
