Chapter 2198
Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman
Before Nava could finish her sentence, Raegan immediately gave her a slap across her face.
Naya let out a painful cry. Surprised, she held her cheek as her head jerked up to look at Raegan âH-How dare you hit my daughter?!â Mrs. Mendez hurriedly stepped forward to defend Naya as she glared angrily at Raegan. âDid my daughter say something wrong? Ava is a vixen! Who do you think you are to interfere -â
âBecause Iâm Avaâs mother. Because as a mother, itâs my instinct to defend my daughter!â
After Raegan said those words, the entire banquet hall fell into a moment of silence.
After a few seconds, everyone started to chatter among themselves.
âWhat? The person Daniel proposed to is actually the daughter of the richest person in Y Country?â
âNo way! I didnât expect Ava to come from such a family.â
âNo wonder she said that it was the Grahams who would benefit from Ava marrying into their family!
Thatâs what she meant!â
The crowd murmured, expressing their overwhelming shock over the situation.
Mrs. Graham and Mrs. Mendez were dumbfounded. Their eyes were wide open because they could not believe what they had just heard.
Ava did not want everyone to find out about who she was like this, but she knew that her mother had no choice but to do so.
âAva, is this true?â Daniel was equally shocked and confused.
At that moment, Mrs. Graham and the rest also looked at Ava fixedly, waiting for Avaâs answer.
Ava did not want to lie to Daniel, so she just nodded her head gently.
When Mrs. Graham saw Ava confirming her relationship with Raegan Xander, she felt as if she was on a roller coaster ride. âAm I supposed to be happy? Yes, I think so!â
Avaâs mother was the richest person in Y Country, and Daniel had successfully proposed to Ava! That would mean that she would have a daughter-in-law who was the daughter of the richest person in Y Country!
Nayaâs status was instantly overshadowed by Avaâs..
On the other hand, Raegan was not happy about it at all. She looked at the people in front of her with a grave and serious expression.
âI didnât want to embarrass anyone here, but all of you have all gone too far,â Raegan rebuked bluntly,â
Especially you, Ms. Mendez.â
Nayaâs face went pale as she covered the right side of her cheek, which was still burning hot. âThe group of you conspired a fake engagement yet you still had the audacity to say that my daughter stole your fiance? I believe everyone here can see the truth for themselves clearly.â
After being rebuked by Raegan, Naya and her mother were so embarrassed that they could not say anything, âAs Avaâs mother, Iâm warning you, Naya. If you ever dare to harass my daughter and my future son-in-
law again, I promise to make your family pay a heavy price.â
When the three Mendezes heard Raeganâs warning, they were petrified.
After Raegan finished what she wanted to say calmly and with composure, she turned to face Ava. She looked at her lovingly and with heartbreak.
âAva, I know that you donât want to disclose my relationship with you because you donât want to be in my light, but child, youâre my daughter and Iâm your mother. If anyone dares to bully you in the future, Iâll make sure that the person will never see the light of day.â
