After Daniel left, I made a phone call to the hospital.
Benjamin White was in good condition, and the surgery could proceed as scheduled. I breathed a sigh of relied
I hung up the phone. The clock’s hour hand pointed to twelve, and the minute hand pointed to one.
There were nine days left.
I was about to rest when my phone suddenly rang. It was a photo sent by an anonymous number.
In the photo, Daniel was loolding at Ava with a lustful gare, Awa was dressed in a maid outfit, and there were indescribable items placed by the bed.
The suppressed pain spread all over my body,
The man used to blush even when our fingers touched. I didn’t know why he turned into such a bastard now.
When Ewoke up, Daniel had returned with a faint fragrance lingering on his body. I could see red marks under his collar.
Seeing that I woke up, he considerately put the repaired cochlear implant on me.
He said gently, “Will you come with me to the company’s celebration dinner tonight?”
He never let me miss any public gathering. He said he wanted to give me a sense of security.
He
But now these words only gave me a sense of irony
Under his expectant gaze, I nodded.
Before leaving. I didn’t want to cause any trouble.
At the dinner party, to my surprise, Ava was wearing a wedding dress. When she saw me and Daniel, she hurriedly walked towards us, holding up the rem of the dress.
“Ms. Moore, I didn’t expect to see you here. I thought you never cared about company matters.”
I ignored her. A touch of embarrassment crossed her face. However, soon she smiled again and twirled around with her wedding dress.
“Ms. Moore, is my wedding dress beautiful?”
Daniel’s hand trembled. He instinctively looked at me,
I nodded with a smile. “It’s very beautiful. Do you come with your boyfriend? Why didn’t I see him?”
Ara glanced deeply at Daniel and then answered my question.
“It’s a gift from my boyfriend. He said he wanted to see me wear it. He is quite busy with work and doesn’t have much time to stay with me. But I belleve he would see it.”
She glanced at Daniel again,
There was a trace of panic in Daniel’s eyes. He tried to walk away while holding my hand, but Ava stopped him.
“Mr. White, could you please do me a favor and take a photo with me? I want to see how I look in the wedding dress.”
Daniel’s face darkened. He said in a cold voice, “You should take a picture with your boyfriend. It’s not appropriate to wear a wedding dress on this kind of occasion. Don’t embarrass the company.”

Upon hearing these words, Ava paused for a moment and chuckled self–deprecatingly, “Is that so? Then I will never wear a wedding dress ap
She turned around and left with disappointinent.
The people around quietly started to discuss when they saw the situation.
“It’s just a photo. Isn’t Mr. White’s girlfriend a bit too stingy?
“She had been living with the White family since she was a teenager. Without the White family, she is nothing. She must hold onto Mr. White tightly.”
In the accident, my parents passed away, and I became deal in both ears. After being taken in by Benjamin, I heard a lot of criticism.
Every time, Daniel would be the first one to stand up and defend me.
This time was no different. He sternly scolded those who criticized me and gently comforted me.
Chapter 2
All the tous gazes fell upon me, but I couldn’t feel happy.
Daniel was somewhat absent–minded because he had not received Ava’s phone calls for several days.
Two days before Benjamin’s surgery, he finally couldn’t bear it.
