Chapter 2181

Daniel lowered his eyes that were filled with worries. At this moment, it seemed that he did not dare to look at Ava at all. After staying silent for a few seconds, he parted his lips.

“It’s this Sunday.” Ava clenched her fists, but it seemed that she gradually calmed herself down. She smiled softly at Daniel.

“Okay, it’s good that you’re doing it earlier on so you can end it sooner as well.” After Ava said that, she grabbed her fork again to continue eating. “I hope your grandpa will be out of the woods so when that happens, Naya and you won’t have to continue acting.”

“Ava.”

Daniel suddenly reached out to grab Ava’s hand. Even though there was a smile on her face, he knew she was not happy about this.

“Ava, you have to believe me. My fake engagement with Naya is just a stop-gap measure. The person I truly want to marry is you.”

Ava smiled and nodded after she heard that. “Of course, I believe you. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have agreed t o this plan.”

Upon hearing Ava’s answer, a smile appeared on Daniel’s handsome face.

He tightened his grip on Ava’s hand and promised her again.

“Ava, I won’t let you suffer any grievances after this matter is over.”

Ava blinked curiously. She did not understand what Daniel meant by that.

She did not ask him either. When she was about to continue eating, Daniel received a call.

Ava did not know who was calling him, but she caught a glimpse of joy and excitement flashing past Daniel’s eyes.

After lunch, Daniel sent Ava back to her company and then he drove away quickly.

Ava stood at the entrance of her company. She kept feeling that the call just now was a little fishy.

After Daniel drove away, he drove straight to Whitman Corporation.

Madeline and Jeremy were having lunch in the office. They did not expect Daniel to arrive so soon.

“Eveline, you got it done so quickly?” Daniel asked with expectation and surprise in his eyes.

When Madeline saw Daniel’s look of happiness and longing, she knew Ava had not chosen the wrong person.

She placed her fork down and walked to her desk. After she pulled out the drawer, she took out a purple velvet box.

“Dan, Ava’s happiness depends on you now. Please don’t ever let her down.” Madeline urged solemnly before handing the velvet box over.

“I won’t let her down,” Daniel promised.

“Don’t let down my wife’s efforts either.” When Jeremy said that, he glanced at the velvet box in Daniel’s hand.

Daniel understood what Jeremy meant. He smiled understandingly. “Even though this is a difficult obstacle, I believe I’ll be able to get through it. I’ll make Ava very happy.”

“That’s good.” Madeline smiled.

Daniel opened the velvet box excitedly. When he saw the item inside, his eyes lit up with surprise and delight once again.

He put the item that was filled with Madeline’s blessing and effort away. After that, he chatted with Madeline and Jeremy for a while before going home.

However, the moment he entered the house, he spotted Naya and Naya’s mother.

He did not know when the mother and daughter arrived. They were sitting on the sofa in the living room, chatting happily with Daniel’s mother.
