Married by Mistake – Chapter 2211

Ava directly pointed out that there was something wrong with the origin of this bag and affirmed that there was a problem with Fiona’s integrity. As a result, Fiona naturally could not keep her cool and immediately blew up in a fit of rage.

“Ava, you’re doing this on purpose!”

The man opposite could not watch this anymore. He started accusing Ava as well.

“Aren’t you going a bit too far? It‘s normal for colleagues to have disagreements but why are you holding grudges? Miss Channing and I are on a date right now. Do you have any manners? Besides, Miss Channing has the ability. Isn’t this just a bag? Do you think she can’t afford it?”

The man was siding with Fiona. Evidently, he was fond of Fiona’s hypocritical character.

Ava did not care that the man being deceived was making a lot of complaints about her. She calmly looked at Fiona, whose face had turned pale with anger. “Fiona, I don’t want to argue with you. Facts speak louder than words.” Ava did not utter a single word of nonsense.

Fiona could not understand what Ava was saying, but the next second, she heard the sound of rapid footsteps approaching from the door of the restaurant.

Fiona looked up and saw Raegan rushing over. Her face grew even paler from embarrassment.

“Ava!” Raegan rushed to the restaurant after Ava sent her the address. She was very happy when she saw Ava, but she glanced curiously at Fiona, who was standing aside with an embarrassed look on her face.

Raegan thought that Ava had discovered what she had been doing with Fiona and the other girl. She was worried that Ava would be angry, so she immediately apologized in a gentle tone.

“Ava, d-did you find out something?”

Ava looked into Raegan’s eyes from the corners of her eyes. “If you’re asking this, it means my guesses are correct.”

“Um…”

“You bribed her and Kendra. You asked them to keep an eye on my every move in the office and then report to you. Then, you gave them all kinds of benefits, am I right?”

Ava questioned, going straight to the point.

After Raegan heard this, an apologetic and remorseful instantly look crept up on her face. “Ava, I didn’t want to do this. I’m just concerned about you and want to know more about your life…”

“Do you think you’re doing this because you’re concerned about me and your actions aren’t disturbing me?”

“Ava…”

“Also, do you see that bag?”

Ava pointed at the branded bag on the chair.

Raegan looked at that bag and apologized. “I found out that you like this bag, so I asked someone to ship it over from another area.”

When Raegan said that, Fiona immediately panicked. When the man opposite heard this, the way he looked at Fiona changed.

After Ava heard Raegan’s words, a sarcastic smile appeared on the corners of her lips.

“You wanted to give this to me, but she never did. You’ve been working out there for so many years and seen all kinds of people. Couldn’t you tell what kind of person she is? She’s been lying to you so that she can scam some money out of you.”

Raegan never thought that Fiona would take this bag for herself. Her sharp eyes peered at Fiona, who did not dare to make a peep, before she shifted her apologetic gaze to Ava.

“Ava, I just want to give you more love and care.”

“I don’t need those things.” Ava rejected her immediately. “I also hope you can stop this childish behavior. I don’t want to be disturbed like this.”

Married by Mistake – Chapter 2212

After saying the last sentence, Ava turned around and left decisively.

“Ava!” Raegan hurriedly turned around and wanted to catch up with Ava, but she turned back just after she started walking. Her piercing eyes were domineeringly glaring at Fiona.

“Actually, I could see through the motives and schemes of people like you at first sight. If it weren’t because I wanted to learn more about Ava’s life, people like you wouldn’t even have gotten a chance to talk to me. However, you were actually ballsy enough to take this bag that costs six digits to keep it for yourself. I’ll take legal measures regarding this matter. Just wait for the police to come get you!”

After Raegan finished speaking, she left the restaurant to chase after Ava.

Fiona was stunned for a few seconds. Then, she heard the man’s frustrated voice in her ears.

“Fiona, it turns out that your colleague didn’t accuse you wrongly just now. I didn’t expect you to take other people’s things and say that you bought the bag with your hard work I thought you were a woman worth dating, but I didn’t expect you to be so unruly! Don’t contact me ever again. It’s disgusting to be friends with someone like you.”

“…”

Fiona was scolded right in her face by the man. She wanted to refute but could not utter a single word. When she recalled that Raegan said she was going to take legal action, she panicked and immediately picked up her bag before running out. However, the waiter in the restaurant stopped her, saying that she had not paid for the lunch yet. The man had left, so Fiona could only pay for it with her own money.

She thought she could get a good meal out of him, which was why she chose this high-end restaurant. Great! She tried to gain an advantage only to end up worse off.

When Fiona finally ran out, Raegan and Ava were nowhere to be seen.

After Ava called Daniel, she told him what had happened just now.

Daniel thought Raegan was doing everything she could to give Ava gifts, but he did not know the specific details. He wanted to say that even though Raegan’s actions were not right, she was only doing it because she was concerned about Ava. However, when he saw Ava’s dull expression, he did not say anything.

Ava received a call and many messages from Fiona. She chose to ignore them and turned on her phone’s ‘do not disturb’ function.

On Monday morning, as soon as Ava stepped through the door of the office, Fiona rushed in front of her.

“Ava! Are you finally willing to show up?” Fiona shouted at Ava. There was an exaggerated expression on her face. Although she was wearing makeup, it still could not hide her haggard and anxious look or her dark circles. It could be seen that she was quite distraught with anxiety.

“Ava, I’ll give the bag back to you!” Fiona put the bag in Ava‘s hand. “Call your mother right now and say I’ve given the bag back to you!”

Ava looked at the anxious Fiona indifferently and did not take the bag. “Please don’t get in my way. I’m going to work.”

“Ava!” Fiona grabbed her violently. “Ava, we’re colleagues. Do you really want to push me into a dead end?”

The other colleagues who did not know what was going on heard what Fiona said and curiously walked over to take a look

What was going on? Why did it sound like a life and death situation?

However, even though Fiona looked extremely anxious, Ava still looked as calm as ever. She glanced at Fiona and displayed a soft smile on the corners of her lips.

“When you were enjoying the things you got from my mom, you should’ve known that you’d end up this way.”

“Ava, a-are you going to leave me to die?”

“I’m not leaving you to die. You only have yourself to blame.”

After Ava said that, two figures came in through the office door.

]]>

Married by Mistake – Chapter 2213

When Fiona saw the two police officers walking through the door, her face turned pale with fright.

Raegan really called the police!

The employees in the office who did not know the situation were all watching curiously, but they could all tell that the police officers were here for Fiona.

“Which one of you is Fiona Charming?”

A policeman asked, scanning the people in front of him with sharp eyes. Soon, he spotted Fiona’s panicked face.

“Are you Fiona Charming?”

How would Fiona dare to lie to the police? She nodded silently.

When they saw Fiona admitting it, the police officers went straight to her.

“Fiona Channing, someone reported you of stealing another person’s property. Please return to the police station with us to help with the investigation.”

“What? Fiona stole something? Could it be that bag?”

“I don’t mind her being nosey but she’s a thief too?”

“Judging from how vain she usually is, it really is possible for her to do such a thing.”

“No wonder she talked to Ava like that just now. It turns out that the bag belongs to Ava. Did she steal Ava‘s bag?”

Several female colleagues were discussing among themselves at one side, and Fiona’s face became even more embarrassed when she heard them.

“I didn’t steal it! Sir, it’s just a misunderstanding!” Fiona tried her best to quibble. She turned her head to look at Ava to try to appear pitiful.

“Ava, are you really not going to help me? I just wanted to help you and your mother ease your relationship. What did I do wrong? Your mom insisted on giving me this bag, but I don’t care for it at all. I’ll give it back to you!”

Seeing Fiona twisting the facts, Ava looked back at her unhurriedly.

“Just explain it to the officers. They’ll investigate it clearly to verify whether you’re being wrongly accused.”

“You…” She did not expect Ava’s attitude to be so firm. Fiona was angry and anxious, but there was no other way. In the end, she was taken away by the police in front of everyone.

Kendra, who was on the side, watched this scene and could only hide in the corner as she shivered. She had also received a lot of benefits from Raegan lately, but those benefits were all given to her by Raegan. She should be fine, right?

As she thought about it, Kendra suddenly met Ava’s meaningful smiling eyes. She could not help but cower and hurried back to her seat, not daring to say a word.

During lunch break, Ava was about to go out to lunch with Maisie. However, when they walked out of the office, they saw Raegan waiting there.

“Ava, your mother is here so I won’t disturb you guys. I’ll go find my brother.” Maisie was very tactful and quickly fled the scene.

Ava did not want to make her relationship with Raegan even tenser in front of her colleagues, so she took the same elevator with Raegan to go downstairs. After they left the elevator, Ava walked to the entrance herself while Raegan chased after her.

“Ava, don’t walk so fast. It’s snowing today. Be careful of the slippery ground.” Raegan reminded her, her tone filled with concern.

However, Ava did not slow down. She only stopped walking when she got to the side of the road and was some distance away from the entrance of the company. Raegan quickly went to Ava’s side too.

“Ava,” Raegan carefully called out Ava’s name.

Ava lifted her eyes to look into Raegan’s expecting and anxious ones. Then, she took a deep breath before saying.

]]>

Married by Mistake – Chapter 2214

“Ava, don’t say anything first. I know what you’re going to say. Calm down and listen to me first.” Raegan interrupted hastily, soothing Ava’s emotions that were on the verge of breaking down.

Ava, who was interrupted, did not show displeasure. Instead, she just looked at Raegan calmly.

“Okay, speak.”

Seeing that Ava was not angry, Raegan was silently relieved. She also recomposed herself before speaking.

“Ava, I know that you don’t like what I did back then and what I’ve done now. I don’t want to find excuses for myself because I know I’m the one at fault. But Ava, we’re mother and daughter. You’re my flesh and blood. I’m really reluctant to let go of you forever.”

Raegan’s voice began to sound choked when she was still speaking. Her eyes gradually became wet and red. “Ava, will you give me a chance to make things up for you?”

Raegan’s tone was careful, almost pleading.

Ava’s hands that were hidden in her sleeves clenched slowly. She could see the countless hopes and regrets in Raegan’s eyes.

However, she could not forget Raegan’s heartlessness back then.

“Ava…”

When Ava was silent and did not know how to answer, Daniel appeared at the right time.

“Mrs. Xander, you’re here too.” Daniel greeted Raegan politely.

Raegan also smiled slightly. At the same time, she felt that the initially rigid atmosphere had been eased a lot. Daniel smiled and held Ava’s hand that was hidden in her sleeve. When he felt Ava’s fingers trembling slightly, he gently intertwined his fingers with hers, giving her warmth and solid support.

“Mrs. Xander, you probably haven’t eaten yet. Why don’t we go to the restaurant to eat something together?” Daniel asked and looked down at Ava for her opinion. “Ava, is that okay with you?”

Ava knew that Daniel was trying to create opportunities between the two, but at the same time, he also respected her opinions. She did not speak and just nodded lightly in acquiescence.

Seeing Ava’s reaction, Raegan was overjoyed.

She could finally have lunch with Ava, and this time, they did not part ways unhappily like the last time. After lunch, Daniel sent Ava back to the office.

When Daniel sent Ava to her office, Ava thanked Daniel.

Daniel looked puzzled. “Why are you thanking me? Have you forgotten who I am?”

Ava smiled knowingly. After seeing that there was no one around, she quickly kissed Daniel’s cheek and immediately turned around to run into the office while blushing.

The sharp-eyed Maisie saw this sweet scene and went back to tease Ava. Ava did not mind it either, so she magnanimously allowed Maisie to tease her.

Over the next few days, Ava and the rest of the employees found the office to be much quieter because Fiona was detained for a week. A week later, Fiona came to work listlessly. However, as soon as she entered the office, she was summoned by the human resources department. After a while, she came back with a gloomy expression on her face. She rushed directly in front of Ava.

“Ava, you’re so fcking ruthless! I was detained for seven days and am left with a criminal record. Now, I don’t even have a job anymore!” Fiona threw the dismissal letter in her hand at Ava. “You just want to take the position of the design department manager, right? You’re just afraid that I’ll compete with you, right? Are you happy now, you btch?”

Fiona raised her hand in anger and wanted to hit Ava. Right when Ava was about to dodge, Maisie grabbed Fiona’s wrist forcefully.

“Why are you still making a fuss here? I was the one who asked the human resources department to sack you. What qualifications do you have to stay here if you have sticky fingers? It’s even more hilarious for you to mention the position of design department manager. Judging from your work ability, character, and the way you handle things, how can you even compete with Ava? If you don’t want to be even more humiliated, get out!”

]]>

Married by Mistake – Chapter 2215

After being scolded by Maisie like this, Fiona gritted her teeth. She glared at Maisie and Ava fiercely.

“Ava, you’re really underhanded. Whoever dares to be your colleague in the future will have to worry about being framed by you and being left with a criminal record. People like you will face retribution!” Fiona cursed angrily before she turned and walked away.

Maisie sneered contemptuously in the direction Fiona left.

“Who does she think she is? She has sticky fingers and stole your bag because she doesn’t have limits. But now she’s pushing the blame to you. I think she not only has a personality problem but also a brain problem.” Maisie complained before turning her head to comfort Ava again.

“Ava, don‘t pay attention to such people. She was detained because she stole something. It has nothing to do with you.”

“Maisie, thank you.” Ava smiled and thanked Maisie, but she was not affected by what Fiona said.

The other employees in the office did not speak. Instead, they all sat quietly in their seats. However, as soon as Ava and Maisie left, they started talking.

Kendra was desperately emphasizing that it was Ava’s mother, Raegan, who took the initiative to give them gifts. She was trying to distance herself from this whole kerfuffle.

Ava was not a fool. She also noticed that her colleagues were looking at her strangely, but she did not care much about it. In this world, there were too many moments that she could not understand anyway, so she did not care. She only cared about the people close to her.

Just as Maisie had predicted, the decision to promote Ava as the design department manager came quickly. Great, more malicious remarks began to spread around in the office. It was not yet time for work, and those who arrived early had already raised various questions about this matter.

“See? I told you it’ll be Ava!”

“Miss Lowe already gave the answer long ago. Ava has such a good relationship with her, so she’d definitely tell Mr. Lowe to promote Ava!”

“This must be it!” Kendra also chimed in and affirmed.

“I didn’t expect Ava to be so backhanded. She used her means to get rid of Fiona first so that no one in our office would compete with her for this position!”

“No way! I don’t think Ava is that kind of person.”

There were also employees who disagreed with Kendra‘s statement. “She has the ability and qualifications for this position.”

“Oh, Penny, you’re still too young and inexperienced.” Kendra looked arrogant as if she was the only one sober among drunkards.

The girl named Penny glanced indifferently at Kendra. “Aren’t you the same age as me?”

“…”

Kendra looked embarrassed. When she was about to refute, she saw Ava and Maisie coming in from the office door together.

Kendra curled her lips in secret. In fact, she envied Ava very much. She envied Ava for having such a rich mother and also envied her friendship with Maisie, someone who could help her in her career. Hence, she would try to slander Ava bit by bit every chance she got. However, Ava had already seen through Kendra’s plans. She was just too lazy to deal with her.

Ava sat in her seat and quickly entered her working zone. However, she suddenly heard a strange sigh from one side.

“Sigh, some people are truly blessed. They don’t need to take any exams before getting promoted. They could be promoted by just being friends with a certain someone. I’m so envious.”

“That’s right, some people are just that lucky,” Kendra also chimed in.

]]>

Married by Mistake – Chapter 2216

Ava knew that these people were saying that to her. She raised her head with a smile and said.

“This kind of thing doesn’t depend on fate. If you don’t have the ability, you won’t be able to sit in the corresponding position.”

“Not necessarily,” Kendra retorted.

“Why not?” Ava aimed her sharp eyes at Kendra. Kendra pursed her lips. She wanted to speak but stopped herself.

At this time, Tom entered the office with a woman in business attire who looked very capable.

“My fellow colleagues, please stop what you’re doing,” Tom said and then introduced, “This is Ms. Parker, the new manager of your design department. She’ll be managing all affairs of the design department in the future. Just look for her if you have anything you want to ask.”

After Tom finished making the introduction, everyone in the office except Ava was stunned, including Maisie. She had clearly heard that Ava was going to get this position, so why did someone else replace her all of a sudden?

“Good morning, everyone. I’m your new manager. If you have any work-related matters in the future, feel free to come to me.” The woman introduced herself with a smile. It was obvious that the position of manager of the design department was hers.

Kendra and the other colleagues looked at Ava in confusion and surprise. However, Ava was extraordinarily calm.

Tom left with the new manager after staying for a while. Immediately after, the office was in an uproar.

“Ava, what’s the matter? I clearly heard that the company was going to give you a promotion. Didn’t you get called over by Mr. Lowe two days ago? Didn’t you guys talk about the promotion?” Maisie expressed her doubts. She referred to her elder brother as Mr. Lowe in the office according to company rules.

When everyone around them heard Maisie’s question, they also pricked up their ears to listen to Ava’s answer.

Ava smiled at Maisie and explained, “That did happen, but I rejected the offer.”

“What? You rejected?” Maisie was confused. “Why?”

“Because I felt that once I’m promoted to that position, I might not have more energy to spend on my design drafts. I love designing, and I’m happy with my current salary, so I don’t wish to change my position,” Ava slowly stated what she was thinking.

After Maisie heard that, her eyes were filled with admiration. “Ava, I’m growing more and more fond of you. If I were a guy, I’d definitely pursue you!”

“I’m honored.” Ava went along with Maisie’s joke and lifted her eyes to look at Kendra, who was now speechless.

Just now, Kendra was inciting other employees to make oblique accusations at Ava. In the end, however, it turned out that Ava did not want to be promoted at all. They could only swallow their complaints against her just now.

After the new manager took office, she quickly issued a new task to Ava and it was also a very important one. This was enough to show the manager’s trust in Ava’s design ability.

After reading the contract, Ava could grasp the client’s situation and needs. The client was an influencer who had gained fame on the internet. She was going to marry her rumored boyfriend next year, so she specially asked a designer to help design her new house.

Since the client’s requirements were pretty stringent, Ava specially brought the information to the venue stated by the client for a meeting.

After arriving, it was not the owner of the house she would be designing who welcomed her. Instead, it was a man. .

The man said that the owner of the house was waiting for her in the house she would be designing, so Ava had no doubts and took the elevator upstairs. However, the person she saw immediately after exiting the elevator made Ava think that this might be a set-up.

]]>

Married by Mistake – Chapter 2217

“Miss, Miss Long has arrived.”

The man beside Ava announced respectfully to the woman standing not far in front before turning to speak to Ava.

“Miss Long, this is our young mistress and the owner of this house, Miss Tawney.”

Ava did not know that this little-known influencer was also the daughter of a wealthy family. However, what surprised Ava was not the influencer but the woman standing beside the influencer, Naya.

Since she came here for work, Ava ignored everything and walked to the influencer with a polite smile.

“Hello, Miss Tawney. I’m the designer responsible for the interior design of your house. My name is…”

“You don’t need to introduce yourself to me. I know who you are.” Chloe Tawney interrupted Ava. Her face that was covered with heavy makeup was full of arrogance and disdain. “Aren’t you Ava Long, the vixen who shamelessly seduced another’s fiancé at their engagement ceremony?”

Upon hearing Chloe’s answer, Naya sneered. She seemed very satisfied.

“Ava, I didn’t expect you to be the interior designer my best friend hired. Is the world too small or is this an inevitable clash between opposing sides?”

Ava calmly listened to the cynical and insulting words of the two best friends before speaking slowly.

“The world isn’t too small. It’s just that an evil person with ulterior motives deliberately arranged this encounter. As for who this person is, you know best in your heart.”

“…”

The smug look on Naya’s face faded a little. Upon seeing Ava’s calm appearance, she felt that she could not keep her cool. However, Naya did not want to cause trouble so brazenly, so she just glanced sideways at Chloe, who was beside her.

Chloe understood what Naya meant and began to stir up some trouble.

“Ava, stop talking nonsense. Let’s talk about the design.”

“I don’t think that’s necessary because I think no matter how perfect my design is, I won’t be able to satisfy you, Miss Tawney. I’ll let the company arrange a better designer to complete your dream home.”

Ava turned around to leave, but Chloe’s arrogant warning came from behind her.

“You can leave if you want, but you have to pay ten million in liquidated damages first. When I signed the contract with your company, I specifically specified that you needed to be my designer. If you don’t take up the job, it’ll be a breach of contract.”

“Oh, don’t you have a very rich mother? Just ask your mother to write a check to me and you won’t have to serve me.”

Ava could hear the confidence and pride in Chloe’s words. She could confirm now that this was indeed a set-up. They were working together to take action against her.

Since this woman had said that, she had obviously found out that Ava did not have a good relationship with her mother. She knew Ava would not ask her mother for money, so Ava would not be able to reject taking this job due to the breach of contract and having to pay a huge amount of liquidated damages.

Ava stopped in her tracks.

Although she knew that she was being set up, she had no way to get out of this for the time being. She could only face the problem head-on. Ava quickly adjusted her mentality, putting on a professional and polite smile once more.

“Miss Tawney, do tell me your requirements for the design, or you can show me any examples that you like.”

]]>

Married by Mistake – Chapter 2218

“What? I need to show you examples?” Chloe showed a surprised expression. “Is a designer’s job so easy that you just look at other people’s work and copy it? Is it so easy for you to make money?”

Ava knew that Chloe was misinterpreting her words on purpose, but she still calmly explained, “Miss Tawney, I asked you to show me an example so that I can get to know your style and understand your preferences.”

“I see.” Chloe looked like she just understood, but a wicked smirk soon appeared on the corners of her lips. “You can talk to my good friend Naya, then. I bought this house as a gift for her, so she can decorate it as she likes. You just need to listen to her.”

After hearing what Chloe said, Ava was not stupid and knew Naya was obviously trying to set her up. These two were just beating about the bush.

Naya was arrogantly looking at Ava from the corners of her eyes. She was waiting to see how Ava would be set up by her later. She knew that Ava’s mother was the richest person in Y Country and she could not compare to her in terms of financial resources. Furthermore, she also knew that Daniel adored Ava right now and she had no way to change that either. However, she had to get back at Ava for the grievances and humiliation she suffered at the engagement ceremony!

Ava knew that she had already stepped into the trap. Since she was still working right now, she needed to maintain her professionalism and talk to Naya about interior design.

However, Naya did not want to hear her talk at all. She would interrupt whenever Ava had just said a few words. She would repeat the same question over and over again, obviously trying to torment Ava. However, there was no displeasure shown on Ava’s face. She just calmly did what she was supposed to do the entire time.

About two hours later, Naya seemed to be tired from all the tormenting. Hence, she asked someone to buy them coffee and snacks.

Ava sorted out the relevant information, and she was ready to leave after packing up. For the sake of the company’s image and etiquette, Ava still bade farewell to them very politely.

“I’ll hand over the follow-up design draft to you within the agreed time. If there’s nothing else, I’ll be leaving first.”

“Miss Long, why are you leaving in such a hurry? You must be tired after explaining to Naya for so long just now. My servant will be back soon. Let’s have a drink before you leave.”

“Thank you for your kindness but my time is almost up today, so I have to go back to the company now.”

After saying that, Ava went straight to the door. Coincidentally, Chloe‘s servant came back with coffee and desserts. Ava ignored them and continued to walk forward after passing the servant.

Just as she was about to reach the door, Naya’s voice came from behind.

“Ava, you forgot something.”

Ava subconsciously looked at the work documents in her hands. She did not think she had forgotten anything, but to be safe, she still turned her head. However, the moment she turned around, a cup of steaming hot coffee was splashed on her. The hot liquid was spilled all over her clothes.

Ava quickly lifted her piercing eyes to look at Naya, who gave her a provocative look.

Naya smirked in disdain. “I told you I wanted to buy you coffee. I’m so sorry I didn’t hold it properly. My hand was shaking. I’ll just assume you’ve already drunk the coffee.”

Ava knew Naya was doing this on purpose. After she heard that, she burst out laughing all of a sudden.

“Miss Mendez, you’re too kind. Let me treat you to some coffee too!”

]]>

Married by Mistake – Chapter 2219

After Ava said that, she reached out decisively and quickly, snatching the other cup of coffee in Chloe’s hand. She splashed it on Naya’s body without hesitation.

Naya screamed immediately.

“Ah!”

She took two steps back in a fluster. She had a panicked look on her face but there seemed to be a smirk on her lips.

“Ava! Are you crazy? How dare you splash coffee on Naya like that?”

Chloe immediately rushed over to vent her anger on Naya‘s behalf. There was a look of justice on her face like she was coming to the aid of someone suffering an injustice.

“Why are you so cruel? Do you think you’re all that because your mother is the richest woman in Y Country? Do you think you can bully people like this? Before this, you stole Naya’s fiance in front of everyone, and today, you’re causing trouble for Naya. Naya is very gentle but that’s not an excuse for you to bully her like that!”

Chloe was speaking righteously, and at this moment, Naya‘s face was full of innocence and hurt.

“Forget it, Chloe. Stop talking. My dad is still negotiating business with Ava’ s mom. I’ll be a disappointment to my dad if the business fails because of me.”

Naya spoke in a weak tone. She suddenly appeared to be very weak and pitiful.

Ava felt ridiculous when she heard this. Then, she threw the empty cup in her hand to Naya‘s feet, her eyes were full of contempt. She was looking down on Naya’s pretentious and hypocritical appearance.

“Yes, remember this. My mother is the richest woman in Y Country. If your father wants to close this business deal, you’d better not mess with me. Otherwise, you’ll be in trouble.”

“Ava, you really are something else. How dare you threaten Naya like this? Do you really think that you’re powerful just because your mother is the richest woman in Y Country? Do you think you can bully people like this just because you’re the daughter of the richest woman in Country Y? Ava, you think so highly of yourself!” Chloe continued to speak up for Naya.

Ava was not bothered. She raised the corner of her lips and sneered. “Yes, I’m indeed powerful.”

“You…” Chloe seemed to be out of breath. Two seconds later, she spoke again, “Ava, don’t forget, you’re here to serve us on behalf of your company. Naya and I are your clients. If you do this, not only are you showing that you’re unprofessional but you’ll also bring criticism to your company!”

In the face of Chloe’s rebuke, Ava replied neither too quickly nor too slowly, “When I was leaving, I already told you that my time to serve you today was up. I’m standing here telling you my personal views. It has nothing to do with my job. If you can’t accept it, come at me, then.”

“Ava, you…”

“Miss Tawney, if you’re angry, you can go to my boss to discuss the termination of the contract. But if you’re the one who takes the initiative to terminate it, don’t think about getting the ten million in liquidated damages. If you don’t, let’s continue to confront each other in this kind of environment in the next few days.” Ava smiled lightly and finished her sentence casually.

After she looked at the coffee stains on her neckline, she was about to leave.

However, the moment she left, something seemed to snap inside of Naya. She suddenly ran over to apologize to Ava.

“Ava, I know I was wrong. I shouldn’t have fought over Dan with you. I’ve given everything to you, and I’ve also given Dan to you. If my father’s business fails, then I’ll just accept it. However, please don’t treat my friend like this. She only spent so much money to hire you because she admires your design skills. Please don’t shift your anger for me to my friend.”

Naya looked very sincere but Ava did not understand why Naya seemed to have a completely different personality now. Ava did not want to waste her breath. Instead, she just looked at the two women in confusion before leaving without saying anything.

]]>

Married by Mistake – Chapter 2220

As soon as Ava stepped out of the door, Naya and Chloe suddenly displayed sinister smiles on their faces.

Ava drove away. The more she thought about the incident after she calmed down, the more she felt that there was something wrong with Naya‘s behavior just now. She knew that Naya had managed to provoke her a little just now, which was why she made such a counterattack.

She had always been like that, but because of Daniel, she began to hold herself back.

In the past, even when she was weak, she had never been afraid of facing Jeremy. She always said whatever was on her mind and never held back when she was angry. Furthermore, Naya and Chloe were clearly colluding against her this time. They said they liked her designs, but in reality, they were just trying to fool her and vent their anger.

After returning, Ava did not tell Daniel and the others about it. Instead, she just went back to her work. However, after a while, the new manager called Ava into her office.

The manager said that she had just received a call from Chloe, who was very angry and complained about Ava. She even said that she wanted to terminate the contract, but their company must compensate for the loss. Therefore, the manager asked Ava what had happened.

Ava told the manager what had happened in the morning and also explained that she and Chloe’s friend, Naya, had some personal grudges. In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, she would take the initiative to withdraw from the job, but she would not pay the compensation that Chloe was asking for.

The manager said that she believed what Ava said and she would talk to Chloe in person. However, not long after, Ava’s name was suddenly trending on several major websites.

Ava also learned from Maisie that her name was trending. She clicked in and found out that her conflict with Naya and Chloe earlier today was posted on the internet. There was also a video.

In the video, Ava’s side profile was seen as she splashed the coffee on Naya. Then, she warned Naya with a very arrogant and mean attitude. The netizens who did not know the truth were infuriated by her behavior.

Meanwhile, in the video, Chloe was fighting for justice for Naya like the good friend she was. As for Naya, her clothes were clearly stained with coffee and she had tears in the corners of her eyes. Her pitiful appearance would surely break the hearts of those who looked at her.

After watching the entire video, Ava finally understood why Naya’s attitude underwent a 180-degree change then. Naya and Chloe had planned this.

They had instructed the servant at the side to film the scene with a camera. Naturally, the scene of Naya stopping Ava and splashing coffee on her was edited out. Everything that was posted for the public to see was detrimental to Ava, but they were absolutely beneficial to Naya and Chloe because they seemed innocent.

“Ava, what’s going on? I don’t believe that you’re someone like this,” Maisie asked quickly. When she saw the netizens scolding Ava in the comments section beneath the video, Maisie was so mad her hands were shaking.

When she was about to retort to those netizens who were cursing Ava for no good reason, Ava stopped her. “Maisie, don’t be mad. I’m not even mad.”

Ava comforted Maisie, but in reality, she almost could not contain the anger in her heart.

Not a lot of people could keep calm after they were framed like this. A video of the conflict was even posted online so that Ava would be criticized and cyberbullied by netizens who did not know the truth. However, at this moment, Ava did a good job of controlling her emotions. She grabbed her phone and walked out of the door.
