“Evelyn! What nonsense are you talking about here?” Caleb walked over with a stern face and heard Evelyn’s words, which made him uncomfortable and particularly embarrassed inside.
He thought. What the hell is Evelyn thinking about? I didn’t believe that Evelyn, from her angle, couldn’t see me coming over. Yet, she still spoke about Avy like that. Were these words meant for me?”
“Caleb Ava’s eyes lit up, and she glanced at Evelyn smugly. Ava thought, Humph, Evelyn is so foolish. How dare she talk to me like that in front of Caleb? Since she doesn’t learn her lessons, she can’t blame me for being ruthless.
Ava quickly threw herself into Caleb’s arms, her eyes brimming with tears. She lifted her head in despair as she looked up Caleb with teary eyes. “Caleb, where did you go? I felt so uncomfortable sitting here alone. Caleb, I am really scared. Do you not want me anymore? Do you also think that I am a bad wornan Ava hugged Caleb tighter, her entire head buried in Caleb’s chest, her body trembling slightly as if she had been greatly frightened.
Across from them, Zoey and Evelyn, one with a cute baby face displaying shock and curiosity, and the other watching them coldly with a clear, expressionless face.
Caleb let Ava hug him and then looked up subconsciously at Evelyn. From her bright eyes, he seemed to detect mockery. Caleb suddenly froze, and after hesitating for a long time, he finally patted Ava’s back to comfort her. Afterward, he pulled Ava from his embrace and held her hand instead.
Ava froze, looking up at Caleb with confusion. “Caleb?”
“What just happened?” Upon hearing this, Caleb asked in a deep voice, his eyes still fixed on Evelyn. Evelyn averted her gaze, remaining silent without speaking.
Upon seeing this, Zoey shifted her gaze back and forth between the two of them and then looked at Ava, who seemed to wish she could stick close to Caleb. Zoey was still in disbelief that she had stumbled upon such a big piece of gossip today. The currently popular international superstar actually became a mistress, interfering in the relationship of a married man. And this pitiful official wife was actually Evelyn whom she knew?
Although Zoey had been in showbiz for many years, she had never heard any rumors about Ava’s relationship. Sometimes, the stuppets from paparazzi that slandered Ava were quickly cleaned up. Now it seemed that Ava could have reached the position of an international superstar with a clean slate, behind this, perhaps there was a part to play by Caleb.
As for the marriage between Evelyn and Caleb, Zoey had never heard Felix mention it, apparently because the Mercer family did not make a big deal out of the occasion. Could it be that the injury on Evelyn’s shoulder from the past two days was really caused by Caleb? Impossible, right? At least, they were once a couple, Zoey looked skeptically at the composed Caleb and Ava beside him. Could it be Ava?
Zoey’s mind went wild with possibilities. Just as she was about to speak up, she was abruptly pulled by Evelyn. Zoey turned her head and saw Evelyn shake her head with an indifferent look
“Caleb, I just came out and saw Evelyn, then I greeted Evelyn. I didn’t know why Evelyn suddenly said that about me. Ava glared fiercely at Evelyn. With the truth right here, she didn’t believe that after hearing such unpleasant words from Evelyn, Caleb would still care about this woman. Then, Ava immediately turned her head and looked toward Caleb. Tears streamed down her face timely.
