Chapter 18 She’s not Qualified Anymore…
Ava’s eyes flinched slightly, but she understood the heart in Noah’s eyes and just felt so cheap, yet she needed his help too much to not say anything.
“Please… don’t blow up that hospital, and please don’t send people to demolish my house, and… give me a sum of money for my father’s medical expenses… … can…” looking at the man’s cold eyes, she gathered all the strength of her body to speak.
The seemingly short sentence is all-consuming, and every word is like a vicious lashing.
Noah’s footsteps pause, the corners of his mouth spread a mocking smile, it seems that this little woman is still not smart enough. Is that all you want? He thought she would ask for a multi-millon dollars.
“that’s all?” His eyes looked at her with a are these demands? expression “If that’s all, you’re pretty cheap.”
His words, as if a knife, viciously pierced her heart again.
She, was she really cheap? Yes, how cheap she is, these things, which are but a drop in the bucket for him, but for her it is like a boulder that makes her unable to breathe.
Noah took in Ava’s expression, but still spoke coldly: “Tomorrow you will move into my house, and from today you will be my mistress and, of course, my nanny.”
Noah’s eyes have no temperature, cold as if only the owner of a dispensable pet.
Nanny? Ava’s sad eyes flashed a trace of doubt, Noah’s family should be a pile of nannies after a pile, right?
But why do you want her to be his nanny? He, obviously so rich, to her, but always so stingy.
Ava is not asking any questions in exchange for her father’s medical bills; she has now sold her entire being to Noah, and the titles “mistress” and “nanny” make no difference to her.
As if seeing the confusion in Ava’s eyes, Noah coldly smoothed his hair and said, seemingly without thinking, “I hate anyone touching me, so there is no personal maid in the house, and from tomorrow, you will be my personal maid.”
The touch of the person who hates people? But why only to her, so heartless, how she wished, she did not meet him, then at least, no one came back to demolish her father’s hospital, and no one will want to demolish her house, even though her life is still in shambles, but at least not like now, lose all self-respect.
Noah’s eyes narrowed slightly, smart as he was, all the thoughts of the tender Ava, could not escape his eyes, he looked at Ava, only to feel some inexplicable anger in his chest, but seriously said: “Not everyone is entitled to be touched by me.” He finished lightly and wildly, and walked towards the door without looking back.
The only thing left is that Ava, whose body is falling apart, is looking at him with a miserable face, and his words are saying that she is thanking him for all the self-esteem he has taken away.
Yes, he is qualified to say this because, he grew up with a golden spoon, and because of this glorious veneer, he can treat all people as servants, and in his eyes, still thank him like a pilgrimage.
As if amused by her own silly thoughts, Ava’s mouth pulled back in a pale smile.
Noah walked to the door, the moment his hand touched the handle of the private room, thought of something like a stop, did not turn around, said to Ava: “There are new women’s clothes in the closet, you take a set to change.” After saying that, he pulled open the door and left.
Ava listened sideways to the movement outside, until Noah’s footsteps became more and more distant until they finally disappeared, then she let her tears come out completely, her eyes suddenly turned into a broken faucet, tears followed one after another, could not stop.
Ava stretched out a hand to wipe away the tears on her face, but there was no way to do so, but the more she wiped, the more she cried out.
Finally, all the humiliation that had piled up in the heart, and the grief was released.
After crying for a long, long time, she stopped herself in the middle of smaller and smaller sobs, pulled the covers and looked at herself, the bruises on her arms and the bruises on her body were like a branding reminder of what she had experienced at the Grand Horizon Hotel.
Ava lifted the covers and tried to get up, she just felt like her whole body was being taken apart and put back together, sore and aching, got out of bed, she walked to the door of the room and tried to go out to retrieve her clothes from the hallway, she really didn’t want to touch Noah’s things, she would feel dirty when she touched her.
After putting her ear to the door for a moment, she could hear the sound of waiters walking over and over in the hallway outside, and after glancing down at her still-naked body, her whole face turned like it was on fire again. Eventually she sighed and made up her mind somehow before she turned around and reluctantly headed over to the closet.
Pull open a closet, which is full of suits, shirts, all men’s, Ava closed, and pulled open another closet, which is all new women’s clothing, each piece of the tag is still on the top, although can not see what brand, but Ava look at the cut to see the material are sure to be the best women’s clothing.
She casually picked up a, is ready to wear to the body, suddenly remembered that the tag has not been taken off, so the tag to the hands, eyes inadvertently glanced at the price tag after there are actually five zeros, Ava only feel that the dress instantly like a heavy lead, so she did not think, and hurriedly put the clothes into the closet.
But no, she had to find a dress to wear before she could leave this nightmare-like place.
Ava had no choice but to look at the clothes one by one again, she didn’t care about the style of the clothes, she just wanted to find the most common and cheap one to wear, but, every time she looked at the tag, every one of those clothes was more than 100, 000!
She bit her lip, Noah can put every piece of clothing here is more than 100, 000, why so cruel to not even give herself $100, 000? Sure enough, in his eyes, she is not even worth a single piece of clothing!
Her heart, once again, was stung by such thoughts, and eventually, Ava, in comparison, impatiently found the cheapest dress, but still had more than 100, 000, Ava then walked out of the booth.
” Hello Miss Wilson-” the waitress at the door greeted Ava with a warm bend.
This enthusiasm startled Ava, who had stepped into this kind of place for the first time, and realizing that she had overreacted, she looked up in a panic, gave the enthusiastic waiter a small smile, and walked out of the Grand Horizon Hotel with a quicker pace.
Leaving the attendants enthusiastic goodbyes behind her, Ava slowly stopped and turned around to look at the glorious Grand Horizon Hotel behind her.
She, who used to be poor, had a defiant backbone, a dream, and a cleanliness she was proud of.
However, now she is a dirty woman, everything, just can never go back.
Ava wandered around the street like a rag doll with no soul. The occasional strange glances from people around her did not care, as if the whole world was transparent.
When Ava came back to her senses, she mechanically took it out and saw the caller ID, her heart was inexplicably sour and more embarrassed.
Liam Martin, this name, is her last remaining trace of warmth in this world, but, since then, his name, she does not deserve to mention, because, he is her heart, the most beautiful existence, even she herself, she is not allowed to tarnish his name, tarnish his life.
After a long hesitation, Ava never had the courage to answer the phone.
But the other side of the phone, there seems to be no desire to stop, every time the ringing stopped, it would immediately ring again, over and over again, as if a life charm, shocking her heartstrings.
Ava looked at the phone and her fingers began to tremble uncontrollably.
wouldn’t it, something very important, she, making excuses for herself, pick it up… He is the only person in the world who cares about her and can’t let him worry about her.
With that in mind, she finally gathered the courage to press the connect button.
Ava’s heart, in the uncontrollable light trembling, can not help but to lightly bite the lower lip, trying hard to calm down their emotions, hoping that the voice does not sound so bad.
” Brother Liam, what can I do for you?” She called his name, but it was as if she had to use all her strength.
“Ava, you finally answered the phone! Where were you yesterday? I was looking for you last night, and my phone was off.” Liam’s concerned voice, like a tidal wave, instantly wrapped around Ava.
Her nose, inexplicably a sour, in her heart, he is closer than family, as long as the sound of her voice, you can not help but want to rely on, but, can not. From now on, they can’t!
“I’m fine, just going to figure out how to get the money.” Ava struggled to force back the tears under her eyes, suppressed the trembling in her body, and tried hard to cover up her weakness with a cold voice.
Liam on the other end of the line flinched slightly, snapped back to attention at her cold response.
His concern, too much.
But he was really worried about her! So worried that he stayed up all night! He wondered if she would do something stupid! Even, all over the world to find her, just afraid that she will disappear, his heart repressed the deepest feelings, finally in that moment completely awake.
His feelings for her, I don’t know when, have surprisingly gone beyond all his emotions, he really cares about her.
But her voice was reminding him that he and she were not yet close enough for him to care so much about her that
A trace of resignation flashed through his heart, he, could not wait any longer.
Liam changed his voice and said, “Right! Just now someone suddenly came and took uncle away! I couldn’t even stop him!”
Liam’s voice sounded a little flustered, and he spoke very much faster than usual.
Regardless, it’s hard for him to stay out of anything that has to do with Ava.
When she heard the news that her father had been taken away, Ava was slightly stunned, but then she realized that Noah had done it, and that the others, who had the power to do so.
Liam waited anxiously for Ava’s answer, but Ava did not seem to be as alarmed as he thought, and after a moments pause, still answered him in a calm voice “It’s okay, there will be better people to take care of him…” must be so.
What she needs most is this, isn’t it, but why, at this moment, listening to Liam’s voice, her heart hurts so much.
” Brother Liam… thank you for caring so much about me…” words to the end, she finally could no longer hold back, her voice could not help but clear trembling, a drop of tears, down her face A tear, along her face, turned into a starburst and slid down…
Listening to her strong voice, Liam still felt something strange in his heart” Ava…”
To pick up Jack those people, dressed well, well-trained, with a luxury private hospital car, such people, even he could not contact, Ava, how will contact it.
An inexplicable thought clutched his heart.
However, he then denied himself the idea that he would never dare to think about, Ava in his mind has always been like a pure lily, so clean that people do not dare to easily touch, she, absolutely impossible to do such a thing.
” Ava… must say something to me, I will help you, you believe me, okay?” Liam’s clear eyes dimmed a lot at once, complicated emotions tumbled in his heart, he was tempted to say, let him take care of her, don’t hold up on your own.
Ava did not know how to answer, she, what qualifications, accept his help, and what qualifications, again near him.
In her eyes, Liam, who is as clean and sunny as an angel, is an untouchable existence. The old Ava may still have a slight illusion, but who is she now?Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.
With this mutilated body and a messy heart?
Now she is no longer even qualified to fantasize, not even.
She has nothing left, let the devil-like man took it all away, no matter, she has a more crowning reason, is for the father, is desperate, she has never returned to the old stubborn but clean her.
” Brother Liam… I’m fine, I’m really fine! From now on, you don’t care about me anymore. I, will definitely live a good life!”
Recognizing the harsh reality, Ava shouted and hung up the phone, as if cutting off all her breath, unable to say another word.
Her eyes are full of appointed sadness and sorrow, the whole face is pale, undried tear marks shining with the color of the sun, heartbreaking, she seems like a fragile glass doll, a little bit of force will make her pulverized.
The corners of her eyes can no longer flow tears, the body and mind left, only exhaustion.
She’s so tired, really tired…
The sky was gradually raining, it was getting dark, Ava was in a trance and walked forward for a long time.
When she came back to her senses, she had already appeared in her crumbling neighborhood.
Here, it’s still fine, it really didn’t get blown up, Noah, it really did.
The corners of her mouth hooked up in a sarcastic, sad smile as she once again lifted her pace and walked towards the already empty neighborhood.
Suddenly, a beam of headlights shone violently ather, enveloping her in that bright light and stinging her eyes.
Who is it? This poor neighborhood has never had a car in it before. Not to mention the fact that it is now long gone in misery.
BANG. The sound of the car door closing made Ava look suspiciously through the hand slit at the man getting out of the car door.
The man who got out of the car, wearing a suit, took a serious look at the photo in his hand, then quickly walked in the direction of Ava.
Ava stepped out of the glare and raised her dazed eyes to the man she didn’t know.
The man nodded at her, then made a gesture of invitation and said, “I was sent by Chairman Noah to specifically pick up the lady.”
