Chapter 1082

Nonetheless, she was clueless about Daniel’s action. Why would he give her a hundred-dollar note?

“If you don’t feel like leaving, then keep this hundred-dollar note.” Daniel’s expression was serious.

“Getting to know a person till falling in love with each other takes up a lot of energy and time. There’s another option for you, and that is to be with me. From then on, I’ll heed everything you say.”

“…”

“…”

Daniel’s speech left both Madeline and Ava astonished.

‘Is Daniel confessing his love or proposing a marriage?’

“Ava, I didn’t expect that you and Dan have come to this stage,” Madeline said.

“If that’s the case, then you shouldn’t leave. Dan is a good gentleman who you can rely on.”

However, Ava was lost and could not believe what was happening. Her heart was thumping fast. “Dan, what are you talking about?”

Daniel’s eyes became much more passionate. “Ava, I don’t hope our night that day will turn into a meaningless memory. Perhaps you’ll find it hard to believe in what I’m saying to you now. I don’t even know when it all started but I know that I’ve slowly become more concerned about you. There are still plenty of days to come and I’ll prove it to you that my love for you is from the bottom of my heart.”

“…”

Daniel was obviously confessing his love for Ava. Madeline, who was listening, felt happy for Ava.

However, Ava was stunned.

‘How is this possible?’

The man who she had a crush on for so many years was now confessing to her?

Besides, Daniel’s mention of that night and the hundred-dollar note made her have some thoughts.

With widened eyes, Ava found it unbelievable as she thought to herself.

‘It can’t be… It just can’t be, right?

‘The man with me on that night was actually Dan?’

Ava thought of that possibility. The depressing emotions she had been having all this while suddenly transformed into excitement.

However, before she could further clarify the facts, a middle-aged woman who looked almost like Ava came to Ava’s side. “Ava, it’s time to check-in. Are these your friends?”

Daniel suddenly came up and held onto Ava’s hand. “Nice to meet you, Aunty. I’m Ava’s boyfriend.”

His comment made both Madeline and Ava shocked.

The middle-aged woman was even more shocked. “What? You’re Ava’s boyfriend?”

Ava was dumbfounded, and no words were heard from her, but her face was obviously warming up. It turned scarlet, all the way to her ears.

“Ava, what’s going on? Since when do you have a boyfriend?” The middle-aged woman pestered.

Ava looked into Daniel’s anticipating eyes and grasped onto his hand subconsciously. “I’m not going to Y country. I want to stay on in Glendale.”

“What? How could you?” The woman was expressing her disagreement.

“Why can’t I?” Ava counter-questioned coldly. “You ditched me in Glendale all by myself for so many years. Since when have you guys ever cared for me?”

The woman kept quiet after hearing her reply. Looking helpless, she just stared at Ava.

Ava did not speak another word. She grabbed Daniel’s hand and spun around to leave the scene.

Madeline wanted to follow, but her phone rang once again.

It was Fabian who called, and he was speaking in a heavy tone. “Hey, can I meet you right now?”

Madeline thought about the breaking news she saw on the net not long ago about Lana getting arrested.

“You’re planning to talk about Lana’s case with me?” asked Madeline.

Fabian kept quiet for a few seconds, then answered, “No, I’m looking for you to know more about Jeremy’s condition.”

This intrigued Madeline’s curiosity. She suddenly felt insecure. “Jeremy? What’s up with him?”
