Chapter 38

After Jasmine left. Ava came into the house and saw Caleb sitting on the couch, looking upset..

What happened, Caleb? Did Mrs. Mercer say something harsh She doesn’t like me and won’t allow you to marry me, does she!” Ava sat beside him. leaning against his chest and looking up at him.

Unexpectedly. Caleb pushed her away, making her almost hit the table.

Ava was stunned. “Caleb

Only then did Caleb notice her. He rubbed his forehead and held her in his arms, comforting her, “Sorry, Avy. I was. distracted. Err… I may be very busy later and don’t have enough time for you. I’m afraid I’m gonna have to hold off on making our relationship public.”

The moment Ava saw Jasmine, she knew that things between her and Caleb wouldn’t go smoothly.

Therefore, she was not surprised to hear that. She leaned on Caleb’s shoulder with a ferocious look.

She thought. Why? Why do I never get what I want?

Ava bit her lips until it bled. Having noticed it, Caleb let go of her, only to see her crying.

“I don’t care about what people call me, Caleb. I just want to be with you legitimately. I haven’t been busy with work lately, so I’m wondering whether I can go to the office with you and help you with some trivial work. All I want is to be with you every day. Is that okay?” Ava said.

Caleb felt touched. He didn’t expect that Ava would have such thoughts.

Switching gears, he kept it casual. “So, Avy, nobody knows when your movie’s gonna start shooting, right? Tell you what- how about I clear my schedule a bit so we can hang out more? Sound good?”

Ava caught the determined look on his face and knew there was no arguing. “Yeah, okay,” she agreed reluctantly.

Jasmine, who was not far away, watched them hug, then turned around and got into the car.

She would never allow such a woman to marry into the Mercer family.

Jasmine’s mind flicked to a piece of news she got the other day. She wasn’t sure about its truth, but it seemed legit. The message hinted that Ava was nothing more than a plaything for the industry bigwigs.

Jasmine asked the driver to come to Evelyn’s house, only to see her door and windows all closed. The driver went to knock on the door, but no one answered. Therefore, she had to go back home.

Ava was sitting in a familiar office with someone who looked very excited standing respectfully in front of her.

“Welcome back, Ms. Brin, Bobby greeted with a warm smile. He looked genuinely pleased to see Evelyn. Just like Jasmine mentioned, it was clear he’d been taking good care of the company in her absence.

Evelyn looked at the company’s financial statements for the past half month and frowned, “Bobby, I remembered that I told you to shut down the company, right?”

Hobby’s frustration was evident, but he spoke wi too. I was all set to close up shop, but i felt wrong. I had a hunch you’d be back, so I held off, didn’t do as you’d asked.”
