After about half an hour inside the car, Eve Sharp found herself really hating Alex, and Alex didn’t care about her at all.The tension inside was truly awkward. If Ava and Alex were like magnets, always missing each other after separation, with Eva, they found that they needed to separate as quickly as possible when they got close.“You better treat Ava nicely since she doesn’t want to meet any other doctor except you,” Eva said in an unfriendly tone.Alex replied with silent.Finally, the car pulled over in front of a grand mansion.“Follow me,” Eva led the way, and they hurriedly made it to a big bedroom.Ava was lying on the bed with a private nurse taking care of her. Her face was pale, and her breathing was short and quick.Alex looked at her and found she had the same symptoms as his father.“Alex,” Ava called with a blurry gaze. “Please help me.”“Don’t worry, I will help you.” Alex touched Ava’s wrist, looking into her eyes and mouth. “You have the same poisoning as your fath

The Sharp family mansion was in chaos and panic.The anxiously workers, staffs, gardeners, and security guards were all gathered in the grand hall. Even Eva Sharp was there, standing with about fifty others, all filled with fear.The military team leader, wearing a mask and fully armed, announced, "Don't worry. We've received information that Ava Sharp has contracted a new disease, and we're afraid it might be infectious. So, we will take blood samples from all of you. If it turns out there's no disease, then we will let you go. It's just a precaution since Ava's father had the same new disease."Everyone complied, participating in the blood drawing process. The hall was heavily guarded, ensuring no one could leave."Everyone's blood has been taken. We need about an hour to complete the checks. In the meantime, you can sit here. We will release all of you if you don’t contract with the disease," the leader explained.Behind the scenes, the blood analysis took only three minutes.From

Victor slammed the table, his face flushed with anger. "Rosemary, what are you doing to Alex?""Father-in-law, I cannot tolerate his stupidity any longer. The Gavin family has been profitable even before I was born. How can he display his stupidity to Ethan Gavin? He will only bring shame to our family.""Are you choosing to humiliate your son-in-law in front of outsiders?" Victor's voice quivered with rage."Father-in-law, Alex is the outsider here. Ethan Gavin is my future son-in-law," Rosemary replied coldly."What do you mean by that?" Victor's voice trembled, and the entire table fell into silence.An awkward hush enveloped the dining room."I am sorry, I should not have come here," Alex stood up, feeling like a complete stranger in the White family."Alex, please sit. Can someone explain what is happening?" Victor asked again, his voice desperate for answers."Grandfather," Jasmine replied, "I think it's best to understand that Alex is no longer a military man. He has no money a

At 10:00 am, Alex entered Sharp’s Mansion.The maid led him to Ava’s room, where she was still pretending to be sick.“Over here, Alex,” Ava called and waved from the balcony.“You look so happy,” Alex remarked as he walked over to her.She was sipping coffee at a table on the balcony, enjoying the serenity. As far as Alex could see, there was a vast garden.The Sharps had one of the largest gardens, with maybe a thousand trees surrounding their mansion.“Yes, it's rare for me to rest. By faking my sickness, I can offload all the work onto my CEO.”Alex sat across from her. Ava Sharp was wearing a white nightgown. Her brown hair was tied in a bun, and the pale skin of her shoulders and neck made Alex breathe heavily.Especially since her top was tightly wrapped around her chest without a bra, Alex could see her nipple and quickly shifted his gaze to another tree.“It is rare for you to call me first,” Ava said, her beauty accentuated by the sunlight, her face looking so peaceful.“I w

Ethan Gavin suddenly got a headache from the new gossip spreading like wildfire in the summer heat."How terrible is Ethan Gavin, asking for a threesome from the White mother and daughter.""Is it true?""If it’s not true, how can Rosemary throw wine in Ethan Gavin’s face?""But she said it was unintentional."The woman laughed. "They must feel ashamed of the gossip and are trying to feign it."The beauty of gossip is that even if it’s not true, the image of the people involved is tarnished.Jasmine and Rosemary tried hard to find Alex’s location so they could kill him for humiliating them. But no matter how hard they tried, they couldn't track him down.Meanwhile, Alex was called to Ava’s meeting room. Everyone else had left, leaving only Ava.“Is there a problem?” Alex asked, noticing she looked tired.“I am losing the investors' belief in me,” Ava said.“There is a rumor about Sharp Group going bankrupt. I think it’s Gavin's doing.”“Why they think like that?” Alex asked in confuse
