Chapter 166

After speaking. Ava once more awaited Caleb’s response. Since the moment she stepped into the ward, it might have seemed she held the initiative, but she was well aware that in actuality, the one with the true control was Caleb, whose indescribable presence could not be overlooked. Especially now, as she continued to talk while Caleb remained silent, her anxiety and distress only grew. As long as Caleb didn’t speak or do anything, she didn’t dare to act rashly at the moment.

Just as Ava was pondering if she had been too hasty, Caleb finally spoke.

Caleb said calmly, “Colin told me what happened yesterday.”

Hearing this, a wave of panic surged through Ava’s heart. She felt that Colin had played the blame game first, most likely bad–mouthing her in front of Caleb, and so she quickly spoke up, “Caleb, I feel like Colin doesn’t seem to like me very much. His attitude towards me has always been very cold. Especially after Evelyn came back, he has been even less pleasant towards me. But I have been considering your feelings, so I haven’t taken it to heart.

“Yesterday, because of him, Evelyn not only slapped me but also asked the security to take me out of the hospital. If my agent hadn’t dealt with those photos yesterday, the matter would have been more serious and you couldn’t hide what happened in the hospital anymore.

“Did she hit you?” Caleb’s dark pupils stared intently at Ava, causing an involuntary shiver down her spine as if she felt that Caleb had caught her in a compromising position.

Switching from her previous complaining demeanor, Ava quickly covered her cheek and said sofily. “It’s nothing. For you, these things don’t matter.” She pursed her lips, feigning difficulty and turned back to look at Caleb, speaking deliberately. But Caleb. I think Colin has been bribed by Evelyn. He even said yesterday that you and Evelyn aren’t divorced. You’ve already agreed to become engaged to me. How could that be possible..

Before Ava could finish her words, she was stunned.

I’m not divorced with Evelyn yet” There was no emotion in Caleb’s slightly hoarse voice, making it more difficult to understand what he was thinking.

“What?” Ava pretended to be surprised.

She said that in front of Caleb just now because she felt that after she said that, at least Caleb could not admit it in front of her.

If she were to directly ask Caleb if he had not yet divorced Evelyn, she was certain the answer would be no. She knew very well in her heart that Colin would not speak without basis, and since Colin had mentioned that Caleb was still not divorced, then it must be the truth. The reason why she brought it up in front of Caleb was that she wanted him to divorce Evelyn as soon as possible.

“But didn’t you always want to divorce her before? Is what Colin said true? At that time. Evelyn left the signed divorce agreement, but you didn’t sign it, right?” asked Ava. Now that she couldn’t escape from the fact that Caleb hadn’t divorced, she had to know the reason. She had to figure out if it was because of Evelyn or her mistake that she lost Caleb
