Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman

"Ava, I know you're uncomfortable with my family's attitude toward you and that you've been enduring everything for my sake. I'm aware of all these. I've been trying my best to make compromises and save this relationship. I hope you can give me a little more time. I'll definitely not let you down." Daniel promised solemnly.

Ava felt Daniel's sincerity. She had a lot of things she wanted to say but she could not get a single word out.

"Ava, I know you want to be together with Dan. Otherwise, you wouldn't have cried so badly while hugging me just now."

". I-I didn't cry." Ava stubbornly denied it.

However, when Daniel heard that, guilt and distress suddenly overwhelmed his heart. "I'm sorry, Ava. I really don't wish to make you sad."

"Dan, how's your grandfather? What's the idea you mentioned to satisfy your grandfather's dying wish without letting Ava down?" Madeline asked the key question.

Daniel did not waste any time either. However, just as he was about to explain to Ava, Madeline's cell phone rang with the unique ringtone she had set.

Madeline answered Jeremy's video call without hesitation. As soon as Madeline answered the call, she heard Pudding crying while calling out 'Mommy unclearly. Jeremy looked helpless and anxious. "Honey, Pudding keeps crying and calling for you. Are you still shopping with Ava?"

"Maddie, you should go back first or the little guy will cry himself hoarse." Ava also felt sorry for the crying baby in the video.

Madeline picked up her bag and reminded Ava before she left. "Alright, Dan will accompany you. You two have a good chat. Ava, don't ignore Dan. He really cares about you and is worried about you. Jeremy and I made it through whatever challenges we had to face. As long as you're honest with each other, at least half of the doubts will be solved."

After she finished speaking, she turned around in a hurry. At the same time, she did not forget to respond to Jeremy in the video who was asking curiously about things.

Although the atmosphere was not as lively after Madeline left, Daniel was happy to be able to talk to Ava alone.

"Ava, don't be angry. Eat something first and I'll explain it to you slowly." Daniel coaxed her gently and patiently. At the same time, he picked up some food and put it on Ava's plate.

Ava looked at the food on her plate, took a deep breath, and then said calmly, "You haven't eaten yet, right? You should eat too. We'll talk about it when you're full."

When he heard Ava's softened tone, Daniel's heart was beating less nervously and there was a smile on his handsome face.

"I'm satisfied with just watching you eat, " Daniel said suddenly.

Ava, who was taking some food for herself, felt her cheeks getting hot. These words were not sweet nothings. She was moved when she heard him say that.

Seeing Ava's cheeks flushing slightly and the smile on her lips, Daniel's mood instantly improved.

He knew very well that he would never give up such a woman who could affect his emotions at any time.

"I'm very calm now and I don't want to run away anymore. Just tell me how you plan to settle this. Naya and you are getting engaged soon. Will she agree to cancel this wedding? Even if she does, your parents, your relatives, and your grandfather will not agree to it."

When Ava said this, she was still throwing a tantrum. However, she then sighed and turned her head to look into Daniel's warm eyes.

"Even though things aren't looking optimistic about your grandfather's health and I also hope that he can fulfill his dying wish, I don't want to be separated from you because of this."

When Daniel heard this, he grabbed Ava's hand emotionally. "Ava, it's enough for me that you've said this. Listen to me, I've thought about it and I won't give up on you. But I'll also get engaged to Naya according to the set date."

Ava widened her beautiful eyes in shock. "What do you mean? Do you want two women at the same time? Daniel, what are you thinking?"
