Chapter 1092
Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman
The moment Daniel saw Ava, there was a stunned look in his eyes.
âYou look so beautiful today,â Daniel praised.
Ava felt her face heating up. She was feeling bashful but pretended to not care. âYouâre saying I was ugly back then?â
Daniel explained quickly as his face turned bright red, âOf course, I didnât mean that. I was just saying that you look more beautiful than usual.â
Ava turned her face away and was pleased with herself. She had never felt this kind of feeling before.
After she got into the passenger seat, Ava carefully looked Daniel up and down from the corners of her eyes as he drove.
The manâs side profile looked brilliant. He looked gentle and soft-spoken, but at the same time, there was still the same youthful look on his face as back then.
When the light turned red, Daniel stopped the car and turned his head.
Ava did not have time to avert her gaze before she met Danielâs smiling eyes.
âYouâve been staring for quite a while.â
ââ¦â
âThat night in the hotelââ
âDan,â interrupted Ava. Her face was smoking hot. âDan, youâre not lying to me, are you? Was that really you that night?â
Daniel reached out his hand to hold Avaâs nervous and stirring ones. Then, he smiled. âWho else could that have been aside from me?â
When she got the answer, Ava felt the sweetness in her heart intensifying. However, she still had a question.
She looked at Daniel. When she was about to ask, Daniel said before her, âI didnât ask you to be my girlfriend because I want to be responsible for you. Iâm certain that I like you and I trust you feel the same way too.â
Ava looked at Daniel stupidly, her smile growing wider.
However, what confused her was how Daniel was so sure that she liked him?
Ava thought about this question the entire time until the car stopped.
She grabbed the gift that Daniel had handed her. When she stood in front of the gigantic mansion, she started to feel nervous.
A maid came up to greet Daniel. However, for some reason, her gaze became strange when she saw what Ava was wearing.
Ava was worried about whether she was dressed inappropriately. Before she entered the mansion, she asked Daniel.
Daniel looked at her and answered seriously, âYou look gorgeous. I donât think anything is wrong with your attire.â
Ava let out a sigh of relief and grabbed Danielâs arm before walking to the door.
The old masterâs 80th party was grand. Almost all of their relatives and family members were here.
Everyone was holding wine glasses, drinking, and chatting happily in the garden of the mansion.
Ava felt more and more nervous. She was attending this party as Danielâs girlfriend, so she did not want to embarrass him.
When the guests saw Daniel, they started greeting him.
However, when they saw Ava holding his arm, some of them looked at her with weird gazes while some even started gossiping among themselves.
Ava felt the change in gazes and it made her extremely nervous.
At this moment, a young couple walked over and asked, âDan, whoâs this? Why is she so intimate with you?â
Daniel did not beat around the bush as he introduced, âThis is my girlfriend, Ava Long.â
âGirlfriend?â The young woman looked at Ava profoundly before staying quiet.
Ava smiled back politely and felt that there was definitely something wrong.
She walked into the mansion with Daniel. The moment she stepped in, she saw a woman standing in the living room. Ava finally understood why those people were looking at her with such weird gazes earlier.
