Chapter 1061

When Ava heard his voice, it was as if she was electrocuted and got stunned still.

Knock, knock. He knocked on the door again. “Ava, are you there?” Daniel’s voice softly penetrated into her ears.

Ava’s heart felt sour, and she felt even more uncomfortable.

The man she loved was standing outside the door, but she…

“Ava, last night…”

“Dan, I-I drank too much last night. I’m still a little tired and feel like going to bed,” Ava suppressed her emotions and interrupted Daniel as she pretended to be calm.

Outside the door, it took a long time for Daniel to answer. His tone sounded a little lonely. “Have a good rest, then.”

“Thanks, Dan,” Ava replied. Dressed in her pajamas, she hugged her body tightly as she stared at the door blankly.

After standing for a while, Ava slowly walked to the door. She wanted to take a look at Daniel’s back, but she did not expect that she would see him the second she opened the door.

Ava was stunned and did not move. She seemed to have been paralyzed as she stared in amazement at the man who looked confused.

“You’re not going to bed yet?” Daniel looked at her with warmth in his eyes. “Can I come in?”

“…” Ava lowered her eyes and did not have the courage to look directly at Daniel, so she gently opened the door and turned around.

When Daniel saw how coldly Ava turned around, he felt his heart sinking. He wondered if he should have been so impulsive last night.

He closed the door and followed her into the living room.

Ava sat on the sofa. It was late summer and the weather was not too cold, but she was wrapping herself tightly in a blanket.

Daniel did not understand what was going on but felt that Ava was avoiding him.

“Are you here for something, Dan? If not, I’ll be going to bed now.” Ava smiled as if nothing was wrong, but she did not make eye contact with Daniel. She continued, “Oh yeah, I’ll be going to Y Country in a couple of days and won’t be coming back anytime soon. I guess this is goodbye.”

Daniel’s heart sank. It felt as if his heart had stopped beating.

“You’re going to Y Country? Why?” There was a hint of anxiety in his tone.

Ava squeezed her fingers and smiled pretentiously. “I’m getting married soon. My family found me a good partner in Y Country. I’ll be leaving for Y Country in two days.”

When Daniel heard that, the hundred-dollar bill in his hand suddenly felt extremely heavy.

He kind of understood why Ava had given him the hundred-dollar bill.

It was because she already had a boyfriend and was about to get married, so she wanted to use the hundred-dollar bill to erase everything that happened in their drunkenness last night.

Daniel suddenly felt very guilty.

He had not been completely drunk last night. If it were not for him taking the initiative to give her that kiss, nothing would have happened between them.

After a while, Daniel nodded his head dispiritedly. He scrunched the dollar bill in his hand and asked softly, “Do you like him?”

Ava was stunned for a moment before smiling. She replied, “After getting along for a long time, I’ll grow to like him. I’ve seen his pictures. He’s pretty handsome, although he’s not as handsome as you.”

Her answer sounded very casual, but Daniel did not perceive it that way.

He did not spill the beans about Ava telling him that she liked him twice when both of them were drunk.

However, it seemed that the secret of her liking him had eventually become an unheard secret in each of their hearts.

Daniel smiled slightly and looked at Ava seriously. “Don’t worry, no one else will know about what happened last night. Rest well. I’ll be leaving, then.”

Ava lowered her eyes when she heard Daniel’s words. After being out of it for a while, she finally looked up.

‘What happened last night?’
