Unbelievable, truly unbelievable. The teacher stared at Poe Vaughn, so shocked that he seemed paralyzed, unable to react at all. Ava Sterling didn’t notice the teacher’s reaction; she was glaring at Poe Vaughn, speechless from shock at his sudden and direct actions. And before she could react, he threw another bombshell at her, making Ava not only widen her eyes but open her mouth wide too. He... he invited her out for dinner??? Does he even realize the situation right now? She’s in class with the teacher! The teacher doesn’t know about their relationship—is he trying to let someone know about it? Thinking this, Ava’s face showed a myriad of expressions, with her complexion turning both red and blue, unsure whether to be angry or something else. But before Ava could react, a thought flashed rapidly through her mind, and she swiftly glanced at the teacher. Instantly, Ava went silent. The teacher was looking at Poe Vaughn with a shocked and unbelievable expression, and his facial expression clearly conveyed his thoughts to Ava. She had no desire to speak anymore. With a sullen face, she silently turned to Poe Vaughn. Poe Vaughn turned around and left. As if, calling her was enough. And he didn’t close the door because he wanted Ava to come out. This was an order, leaving no room for negotiation. At that moment, Ava’s face darkened even more. This man... is he really not afraid of their relationship being exposed? Ava felt particularly puzzled, particularly confused; as the client, he should be the one more afraid of exposure, but how long have they been married? Not even a few months, and gradually quite a few people had found out. Ava truly doubted Poe Vaughn, whether he was confident in his subordinate’s public relations abilities or his own power, no matter how their relationship is known, no one would dare expose it? Ava felt she’d better not think anymore about it; the more she thought, the more it bothered her. Wasting her brain cells. Anyway, it’s not her who will suffer; it’s him. What does she have to be afraid of? Maybe one day, if their relationship gets exposed, it might even benefit her. So, Ava didn’t care anymore, put down her book and notebook, and said to the teacher, "Sorry, teacher, I’ll go out for a meal and be back shortly. Please wait a moment." Ava always had a carefree attitude; although she didn’t understand Poe Vaughn’s self-exposing behavior, it was all benefit to her and no harm, so she didn’t care. With her mind at ease, her stomach started growling, empty inside, echoing the Empty City strategy loudly. Couldn’t hold it anymore. Need to eat, eat first then study! Health is the most important! With strong conviction in her heart, Ava’s annoyance vanished instantly, and she quickly left without waiting for the teacher to respond. Soon, the study door closed in front of the teacher. The teacher sat there, opening and closing his mouth, unable to make a single sound. President Vaughn, Miss Sterling. This pair, truly completely unimaginable. If news of this exploded, the internet would probably crash! After Ava closed the door, she immediately went to the bathroom to wash her hands and then quickly sat in the chair. Maid Wei had just put down the bowls and chopsticks when she saw Ava come out, immediately smiling, "Madam must be hungry?" "The dishes are all hot, hurry up and eat while they’re hot." Ava nodded, quickly picked up her chopsticks, and started eating. Poe Vaughn was already sitting across from Ava, picking up his bowl and chopsticks the moment Ava sat down. But seeing Ava eating so quickly, his brow furrowed slightly, and he said, "Eat slower." Ava already stuffed her mouth full of food and, hearing Poe Vaughn’s words, instinctively replied, "I have to go back to class." With her mouth full of food, the words inevitably sprayed out, even one grain of rice directly landed on Poe Vaughn. At that moment, the living room went silent. Ava stared at the rice grain, stunned. Maid Wei was also frozen. No one was reacting, shocked to forget to react. Poe Vaughn sat there with a grain of rice suddenly sprayed over, firmly sticking to his clothes. At that moment, holding the bowl and chopsticks in his hands, with rice stuck on his shirt, his deep-set gaze fell on Ava, growing even deeper, darker. Ava’s heart skipped a beat, hurriedly putting down her bowl and chopsticks, swiftly stood up and ran to Poe Vaughn’s side, quickly removing the rice grain from him. Because she moved too quickly, too hastily, the chair screeched sharply as it was pulled out. Poe Vaughn frowned again. But before he could react, the sweet-smelling person came swiftly over, standing beside him, removing the grain of rice, and continuously patting his chest. "Sorry, honey, I..."

"Don’t be angry, being angry is bad for your health, not good." Her urgent, fearful voice echoed in his ears, especially her hand, continuously calming him, nowhere calming the breath, but rather stirring other feelings. He grasped her hand firmly, gazing deeply at her, "Chew and swallow the food in your mouth." Ava’s hand was firmly held, with considerable pressure, making her not dare speak further, quickly chewing the food in her mouth, then swallowed it, lips parted, "Swallowed." She obediently gazed at Poe Vaughn, like a good child, doing whatever he said without opposition. Even opening her mouth for him to see, extremely well-behaved. Poe Vaughn looked at her finally settled demeanor, saying, "Sit beside me." Ava dared not anger Poe Vaughn, for Poe Vaughn had a cleanliness obsession. Since she accidentally sprayed food on him, he would surely throw a massive tantrum. If he threw a massive tantrum, she wouldn’t be able to go back to class. So, she had to placate him; whatever he said would be her action. Ava immediately sat beside him, pulling the chair open, sitting properly, not hesitating. Maid Wei was also frightened by Poe Vaughn’s demeanor earlier, even for a moment thinking Poe Vaughn would lash out. But didn’t expect, he didn’t. Seeing Poe Vaughn’s expression, then looking at Ava, and seeing Ava sit beside Poe Vaughn, Maid Wei didn’t need Poe Vaughn to say a word, and immediately brought Ava’s bowl and chopsticks to her. Ava quickly said, "Thank you, Maid Wei." Her eyes were filled with gratitude. Maid Wei was truly wonderful, staying with her during this time without leaving, not afraid of being blamed by Poe Vaughn because of her. Seeing Ava’s instant, unparalleled gratitude, Maid Wei smiled. Mr. Vaughn would not do anything to Mrs. Sterling because she is someone he cares about. If it were someone else, it wouldn’t be this way. Maid Wei smiled, saying, "No need to thank, Madam, take your time eating, no rush." Ava immediately nodded like a pecking chick, "I’ll eat slowly, eat slowly!" Saying this, Ava cautiously glanced at Poe Vaughn.
