Ava looked over the selection of ice cream and then glanced at Ambrose. “We’ll have two vanilla cones,” she said confidently, then added, “And can you sprinkle some crushed almonds on both?” The vendor nodded with a smile, “Coming right up!” As the vendor prepared their cones, Ambrose watched Ava, a small smile playing on his lips. “You’ve got good taste,” he said softly. Ava shrugged, trying to appear indifferent, but her eyes flickered with a hint of satisfaction. "Vanilla's a classic. Can't go wrong.” The vendor handed them their ice creams, and they both started licking quietly, enjoying the sweetness. Ambrose broke the silence, a playful glint in his eye. “Can I lick your ice cream?” he teased, turning to Ava. Ava shot him a weird look, not amused by the suggestion. “No,” she replied flatly. Ambrose grinned. “Alright, do you want to lick mine?” She didn’t respond this time, just kept her focus on her ice cream, avoiding his gaze. Ambrose, still smiling, leaned closer and sa

Elder Wei sat at his desk, his eyes fixated on the stock chart displayed on the screen. The numbers were steadily dropping, and the red lines slashed through his hopes with each passing second. His face was tense, jaw clenched, and his fingers gripped the edge of his chair. Malcolm, standing beside him, nervously shuffled, watching the same ominous decline unfold.“This... this is a disaster,” Elder Wei muttered, shaking his head. His frustration bubbled beneath the surface as the chart dipped further.“I didn't mean for this to happen,” Malcolm said quietly, trying to defend himself. “Anna... she overreacted.”“Overreacted?” Elder Wei’s voice was a dangerous growl. He slowly turned his head, glaring at his son. “You insulted the one person who could help us stabilize this crisis! And now, look at what she’s doing—she’s destroying everything we built!”Malcolm’s eyes dropped to the floor. He knew his father was right, but the damage was done.“She was angry,” Malcolm tried, his voice

Ambrose whispered under his breath, "Oh God, she'll kill me if she finds out about this. How the hell did the pillows go off?" His gaze fell on Ava’s disheveled clothes, and he felt a twinge of guilt mixed with an undeniable sense of attraction. He moved closer, taking in the sight of her soft features. "Fuck, she's so pretty," he mumbled, unable to stop himself from inhaling her scent. It relaxed him in a strange way.His heart raced as he carefully reached out to adjust her nightgown, hoping she wouldn’t notice anything when she woke up. Just as his fingers touched the fabric, Ava’s eyes fluttered open, locking with his. Instantly, a cold shiver ran through both of them.Ava sat up quickly, her eyes drifting to his hand on her gown. She acted startled, her voice laced with mock accusation. “What were you trying to do?”Ambrose's face turned pale. "Ava, it's not—"“You were trying to pull my gown off, Ambrose?” she asked, her tone sharpening.“No, come on, why would I—" Ambrose stamm
Tell The World, Ambrose Li Has Returned Chapter 133: $500 To Evelyn
Grandma looked over at Ava with concern, her eyes narrowing slightly as she asked, "Ava, I hope these people won't terminate the contract because of all this?"Before Ava could respond, Ambrose's calm voice cut through the room. "They can't." Everyone turned to look at him in surprise, including Ava.He continued, "It's a signed contract, right? So they can't just back out. Ava will have to do the work diligently, but even if they don't want to continue, they'll have no choice. Plus, if they ask her to stop, she can agree, give them the materials she's already bought, and take the whole big payment for herself.”Ava blinked in astonishment, stunned by how much Ambrose knew. She hadn't expected him to be so informed about the contract details. She exchanged a glance with Dera, who was equally surprised.Grandma Margaret, however, wasn’t pleased. She frowned deeply, her eyes locking onto Ambrose. "What do you know? Who asked you to speak?" she snapped.But before Ambrose could reply, Av
Tell The World, Ambrose Li Has Returned Chapter 134: Malcom And Chen Apologize To Anna
Ava, sitting quietly, didn’t know whether he was lying or telling the truth, but at that moment, she couldn’t help but feel a small burst of happiness inside. "$5000, and you wasted it all?" Grandma suddenly screamed. "You ungrateful bitch! We feed you, and you forgot us and used all the $5000 on yourself?" Ambrose remained composed. “I didn’t use all of it, Grandma. I saved some, which I’ll be using for trading again.” Evelyn, instead of anger, had a smile growing on her face. "Ambrose, I’m so happy for you," she said warmly. "You’re working hard, and I’m proud of you." Ambrose glanced at Ava, who was watching him closely. She smiled lightly at him and gave him a small nod of approval. After they finished eating, Ambrose stood up and began collecting the bowls from the table. He carried them into the kitchen, where Evelyn was busy cleaning up. Without saying a word, he helped her by packing the dishes, arranging them neatly on the counter. A few moments later, Ava approach
Tell The World, Ambrose Li Has Returned Chapter 135: Anna Demand 30 Percent
"Huh?" Malcolm and Chen exchanged stunned glances, their disbelief palpable. "I didn’t hear you well, COO," Malcolm said, his voice quivering.Anna leaned forward, her voice clear and firm. “I need 30 percent of the shares in your company.”Malcolm shot up from his chair, his face flushed with frustration. "What kind of thing is this, COO? Yesterday, you said it was 30 percent of the income, and now you're demanding 30 percent of the shares?!”Anna remained calm, her eyes unwavering as she replied, “Yesterday is gone, Mr. Wei. Today is another day. The Chairman doesn’t want a percentage anymore—he wants shares.”Malcolm clenched his fists, about to lash out, when Chen quickly stood up and gently grabbed his arm. “Master, calm down. Don’t forget, this could have serious consequences,” Chen whispered urgently.Malcolm glared at him. “So what, Chen? I should just give away 30 percent of our shares?”Chen shook his head, his voice low and measured. “No, master. Let me handle this.” He tur

“Yes, she said the Chairman has requested it,” Malcolm explained hurriedly. "I tried negotiating for 50 percent of the income instead, but she won’t budge. Chen suggested I call you for your decision."Elder Wei was silent for a moment, and Malcolm could feel his pulse quicken.Elder Wei’s furious voice came through the speaker with a thunderous curse. "That damn Gemstar! Thirty percent shares? Absurd! Malcolm, give the phone to her, I need to speak to Anna myself!"Chen immediately intervened, his voice firm yet cautious. “Master, that’s not going to work. She’s not going to change her mind, and she won’t let us talk to the Chairman. We only have two minutes left before they reserve the right to change their terms again.”Elder Wei’s breathing was heavy, filled with rage, and for a moment, it sounded as if he would explode. “Two minutes? Give the phone back to Malcolm,” he ordered, voice seething.Malcolm, anxious, lifted the phone. "Dad?""Give them the 30 percent shares," Elder Wei

Ambrose’s eyes widened in excitement. "Really? Haha, thank you so much, Ava! Okay, so are you at work now or…?"Ava nodded on the other end of the line. "Yes, I’m at work, but I’ll finish up soon. I’ll have Dera handle the remaining tasks before she heads home."Ambrose nodded, still smiling. "Alright, sounds good. Do you want me to come pick you up when it’s time?""No need, I’m driving myself. Just send me the location, and I’ll meet you there," Ava replied casually."Ok, my wi—" Ambrose paused, catching himself. "I mean, alright, I’ll text you the location and time. We’ll meet there.""I’ll be expecting it," Ava said.Ambrose nodded with a smile, even though she couldn’t see it. "Great. Talk soon."After hanging up, he immediately began scrolling through his phone, looking for the best restaurant he could take Ava to. Something perfect, something special.After scrolling through countless restaurant options, Ambrose grew frustrated. None of them seemed perfect enough for the evenin

The soft rhythm of the music filled the room, and Ava’s body seemed to flow effortlessly with it. Her movements, though tipsy, were graceful and captivating.

Chapter 150: Ava Gets Tipsy
Meanwhile, at the restaurant, Ambrose and Ava were still enjoying their dinner, the atmosphere lively with soft music playing in the background. Ambrose looked at Ava, smiling warmly as he reached for his glass.“You seem to be really enjoying the food,” he said, playfully nudging her.Ava smiled, taking a sip of her drink. “Well, it’s not every day I get to enjoy something this fancy.”Ambrose chuckled. “You deserve this every day, you know.”Ava looked at him with a mix of curiosity and affection. “You’re really full of surprises tonight.”Ambrose took her hand, squeezing it gently. “I’m really proud of you, Ava.”As they continued talking and eating, Ambrose suddenly picked up a piece of food with his chopsticks and held it out to Ava. She blinked, momentarily shocked by his gesture."Ambrose, what are you doing?" she asked, her voice laced with surprise and shyness."Feeding you," he said with a teasing grin. "Come on, don’t be shy."Ava’s cheeks flushed, and she glanced around th

After placing their expensive orders, both Ambrose and Ava set their phones down. Ambrose turned to her and asked, "So, how's it going?""How's what going?" Ava asked."Your work. The contract for the Wei family, I mean."Ava nodded. "It's going well. It felt like a huge weight at first, but Dera's been helping little by little, so everything's going smoothly now.”"Dera," Ambrose nodded thoughtfully. "Is she staying at the manor permanently now?"Ava shook her head. "She’s planning to rent her own place soon, once she finds something. But for now, since she's helping me out, it just makes sense for her to stay at the manor.""Alright," Ambrose nodded again. He then gently took Ava’s hand, looking into her eyes without speaking."What?" Ava asked, her voice carrying a hint of shyness.Ambrose smiled softly. "I want to apologize.”"Apologize for what?" Ava asked, slightly confused."For everything," he said. "We got married against your will. Your dreams of marrying someone wealthy or.

Meanwhile, inside, Palermo was growing bolder by the second, leaning closer to Ava as he tried to charm her.Palermo reached out, attempting to lightly brush her arm. “Come on, why don’t we just enjoy the evening together, huh?”Before his hand could make contact, Ava snapped back, her voice strong and unyielding, “Touch me, and you’ll regret it.”Palermo paused, taken aback by her intensity but still trying to play it cool. “Whoa, calm down. I’m just being friendly.”“Friendly or not,” Ava shot back, her eyes narrowing, “I’m not interested, and I’m warning you—don’t try anything again.”At that moment, Ambrose re-entered the restaurant, his eyes immediately locking onto Palermo leaning too close to Ava. His face hardened as he quickened his pace. Without hesitation, Ambrose strode up to them and forcefully pushed Palermo back, making him stumble away from Ava.“Don’t touch my wife!” Ambrose’s voice was cold, his eyes burning with intensity as he squared up to Palermo, his frame tense

Immediately Ambrose reached the table and Ava saw him, she smiled warmly and said, "You're here."Ambrose nodded, his gaze briefly flicking to Palermo with a slight frown before turning back to Ava. He handed her a single rose he had been holding. "This is yours."Ava was pleasantly surprised as she took the flower, admiring how beautiful it was. "Thank you," she said, smiling.Ambrose nodded, his expression still a bit serious as he looked at Palermo and then back to Ava. "Who's he?" he asked.Ava glanced at Palermo and replied, "This man here is Palermo. He offered to pay for my drink, and I refused. But guess what? He doesn't believe I have a husband and thinks he can give me some sort of 'great treatment.'"Ambrose’s frown deepened at her words. He turned fully towards Palermo, his voice calm but firm. "Hello, she told you she has a husband, so why are you still trying to force things?"Palermo looked Ambrose up and down with a smirk. "Where's your ring? Did you just manage to get

The staff member hesitated slightly, then leaned closer to Ava. "Madam, I understand your wish to pay, but that man is a big deal around here. It would be wise to give him face. A gesture like this—"Ava cut him off, her tone calm but firm. "I said no thanks. It's $500, right? I'll pay it myself. It's simple." She handed the staff member her card and calmly gave him the password.The staff member gave her a cold look, clearly understanding that Ava wasn’t going to be swayed. He took the card and walked back to the man in the suit. "She refused your payment and offered to pay herself," he said quietly.The man smirked, his gaze trailing back toward Ava. "Alright, don't worry about it," he replied, though there was a flicker of something unreadable in his eyes. He glanced toward Ava one more time.Ava, feeling the weight of his gaze, briefly locked eyes with him before she deliberately looked away and focused on her phone. She checked the time—7:00 PM. Ambrose hadn’t arrived yet, which

Ambrose walked out to the cab which was parked outside and then sat inside. Sitting inside, the driver greeted him coolly. Ambrose responded then asked him to drive quickly. Ava had just finished changing back into the outfit she wore earlier that morning, a stylish yet practical look that blended well with her professional demeanor. She glanced at her reflection in the rearview mirror, tucking a loose strand of hair behind her ear. Satisfied with her appearance, she took a deep breath and started the car.The engine roared to life, and she quickly punched the location Ambrose had given her—Le Jardin Gourmet—into the GPS. As the directions appeared on the screen, she shifted into gear and pulled out of the lot.The drive wasn’t too long, but Ava found herself thinking about the upcoming dinner, her thoughts drifting to Ambrose. She wasn't used to such gestures from him, and the fact that he had planned the evening left her with mixed emotions. Half an hour later, Ava pulled up near
