Chapter 54 It has been two weeks since the graduation, and although Ava had hoped to start working immediately after graduation, Leo had forced her to take a one-month break for her to recharge herself. But she had not been sitting still and doing nothing over the past two weeks. Her main interest was to be a reporter for an entertainment agency, and for the past few days, she had been familiarizing herself with the entertainment industry. She wanted to know what was required of her for her to get the most trending news, what the online netizens were most interested in in the trending topics, and just everything to do with showbiz. Ava had always believed that for one to be outstanding, they had to be the best in their game and she was planning to do that no matter what it took. So, apart from getting familiar with how the industry works, she had also been sending out her resume to several media houses, dealing mainly with showbiz, hoping for a positive answer. When Leo arrived ho
Chapter 55 Leo stretched out his hand to take the protection from the drawer but Ava stopped him, “It is safe today, you can go in without it.” Feeling his flesh on hers, Leo knew that he was finally home. The void feeling that had been hovering in his heart was filled as he enjoyed the heat coming from his wife’s sweet rose. Since he had promised that he would be quick, Leo did not overdo it. He knew how much effort his wife had put into preparing that dinner, and he did not want her to feel disappointed. After having released some of the tension from his body, Leo washed up before he helped Ava clean her body. After they changed into a new set of clothes, they went downstairs hand in hand with their hair still slightly dumb. When they reached the living room, they were stunned to see Ethan and the rest in the living room, looking at them with wide eyes Ava instantly felt embarrassed when she saw their expressions. There was no doubt that whatever was going on through their min
Chapter 56 The following morning… Leo was woken up by the ringing of his phone. Looking at Ava’s beautiful sleeping face, he did not want to be separated from her, but the caller was insistent. He carefully removed his arms around her before he turned over to take his phone. Seeing that it was his grandfather's calling, he could not ignore it. He removed the blanket and he was about to get out of bed when Ava hugged him across the waist. She nestled her face on his back before she spoke in a sleepy voice, “Don’t go.” Leo’s heart melted in an instant. He turned around and hugged her. He kissed her on the forehead before he said, “It is my grandfather calling, I don’t want to wake you up so I will be quick.” Ava shook her head, “No, just answer it from here.” Leo would never say no to his wife. Seeing that the call had ended, he took his phone and hugged her in his arms before he dialed his grandfather’s number. “Hello…” “You rascal, what time is it? Are you still in your bed?”
Chapter 57 Ava looked at the old man playing chess all by himself and felt in awe. Although in her past life she had been married to Jason, she had never heard much about the legendary Wyatt family until Leo saved her. Christopher looked intimidating and his sharp gaze was as if nothing could ever be hidden from him. The moment he looked at Ava, she felt as if the man had already seen through her deepest thoughts. Leo looked at the old man that he had not seen for years and his gaze softened. He was about to gently call him out, but when he noticed him intimidatingly looking at Ava, his gaze became cold and he cleared his throat as a sign of warning. Christopher came back to his senses. He looked at his grandson and sneered in disdain, “You finally decided to come back home after so many years?” “Grandfather, how have you been?” “As you can see, I am barely hanging on. If you had not come back, I would have been forced to drag you back home.” Ava looked at the old man again. Alt
Chapter 58 When Dexter saw Ava, he was stunned. He quickly called out to her, “Ava, what are you doing here?” Christopher was shocked when he heard Dexter address Ava. It was like they were familiar with each other. Ava was only stunned for a few seconds before she came back to her senses. She called out to Dexter, “Grandfather, you are here?” Hearing her call Dexter her grandfather, realization dawned on Christopher. Was he the grandfather that she had been talking about? Well, if that was the case, then it was a big coincidence, or maybe fate. “What are you doing here?” Dexter asked. In his memories, he did not remember Ava being related to anyone in the Wyatt family. The only possibility could be that… Ava had told him that she had moved on and she had even found someone who treated her well. He had been wanting to meet the said person but a lot of things happened, and they had not had the chance to meet up, could it be that the lucky man was from the Wyatt family? “Grandfat
Chapter 59 When Beth saw Leo, her eyes lit up. This was the man of her dreams, and she was the only person worthy of him. Seeing how he was protectively hugging Ava a deep envy took root in her heart. If only she was the one in his arms now, she would be so happy that she could not wait to fly. Christopher took the opportunity to push Beth away. Although he was displeased by her boldness, he did not show it on his face. He looked at his grandson and explained, “Your father invited the Graysons over for lunch. We were here to welcome them in the house.” Leo looked at Dexter and bowed politely. Ava had said that he had been the only person nice to her in the Grayson family, and for that, he deserved his respect. As for the rest, he did not even spare them a glance. After bowing to Dexter, he politely invited him to the house, “Welcome, Grandpa Dexter, I have heard so much about you from my wife. Thank you for taking care of her in the past.” Dexter was flustered when Leo personally
Chapter 60 “Dad, do you remember what you had promised Uncle Dexter after he did you a huge favor many years back?” James asked as he looked at his father, Christopher. Christopher nodded. If he had not realized the reason as to why James invited the Graysons over, then he would not be the same person who had ruled the business world for many years. “Of course, how could I forget?” Hearing that, James continued, “Although the Grayson family status might not be on par with ours, it is good to take care of our own. And now that Leo is back, and him being the eldest son of the Wyatt family, his marriage must not be taken lightly.” Everyone had different expressions when they heard that. Beth was excited as she looked at Ava with a provocative gaze. ‘Hah, Ava, although you worked so hard to get Leo, I am about to have him without even lifting my finger. You don’t even have the right to compete with me.” Ava lowered her head as the hand that holding the spoon tightened. Although she h
Chapter 61 The next morning, it was unusual for Ava to be the first to open her eyes. But she was so eager to know about her mom’s origin that she had barely slept. When Leo woke up, he found his wife staring at him with wide eyes. He could tell from a glance that she had barely closed her eyes the previous night. He touched her face as he asked, “Couldn’t sleep, huh?” Ava nodded truthfully, “Yes, honey. All I could think about was my mom. I can’t believe that she actually had a family that never for once came looking for her.” Leo sat on the bed and hugged his wife in his arms. His eyes darkened but after thinking for a while, he decided to be honest with her. Although he had a lot of unanswered questions, he had promised to tell her everything that he knew. “Have you ever heard of the royal family in the capital?” Ava was confused when she heard the question but she still answered, “You mean where the king and the queen live?” Leo nodded, “Yeah.” “Well, I haven’t heard so mu
