“Sir...”

“Don’t speak.”

Jackson’s voice was low, yet it was enough to make Rio immediately shut his mouth. After years of working as his assistant, Rio knew exactly when he could still offer advice and when he should remain silent. Right now, clearly belonged to the second category.

Jackson got into the car and tossed the folder, which now contained nothing but the remnants of useless documents, onto the seat beside him. It felt open. Small torn pieces of paper were still tucked inside. A sight

    Jackson looked at her for a few moments before finally giving up.He said goodbye and left the office feeling far from at ease. He had come that morning hoping to spend at least a little time with Ava, but instead, he was leaving with the realization that she no longer wanted to give him any space outside of work.Meanwhile, Ava reopened her documents after Jackson left.She didn't feel guilty about turning down his invitation. She had given him the opportunity to discuss their work, and that should have been enough. She didn't want to repeat the same mistake by allowing the boundaries between her personal and professional lives to blur simply because of their past.Especially now that she had something she wanted to protect.Her marriage to Maverick.Ava smiled faintly as she remembered her husband's promise to pick her up for lunch.For some reason, simply remembering that small promise was enough to lift her mood. She then turned h

    Jackson immediately explained several matters concerning the collaboration between Langham Group and the museum. He discussed the auction preparations, the collections they wanted to showcase, and the possibility of contacting Valerian to discuss her direct involvement.Ava listened attentively and answered as needed, particularly on matters that fell under her responsibility. At first, their conversation went quite smoothly.However, as time passed, Ava began to notice that Jackson was gradually steering the conversation in a different direction.“I think it would be better if we discussed this outside working hours,” Jackson said. “We could have dinner together and go over the details we haven't had a chance to settle. You could also let me know when Valerian would be available to meet.”Ava looked up from the document she was reading. “We can discuss it through an official meeting.”Jackson fell silent for a m

    “Yes,” Ava replied with an unabashedly bright smile. “My life is wonderful right now.”Despite the pain in his heart, Jackson tried to respond calmly. He couldn't afford to make an even worse mistake than before. “That's good. I'm glad to hear it.”Ava offered no further response. She simply continued toward her office, occasionally returning the friendly greetings of the museum staff.Jackson tried to ignore the jealousy that had been troubling him. He knew there was no point bringing up Maverick's kiss in front of the museum, especially when Ava didn't even feel the need to explain anything to him. So he decided to return to the reason he had come in the first place.“Then can we talk about Valerian now?” Jackson asked after Ava invited him to take a seat in her office.Earlier, he had taken a moment to look around the office where the woman who had once been with him for seven years worked. Jackson

    Ava gave a small shake of her head without releasing him. "Nothing. I'm just happy."Maverick smiled faintly. He didn't ask any further questions, allowing Ava to enjoy the feeling for a few moments before they continued their journey.Not long afterward, the car stopped in front of the museum building. Ava straightened her clothes, preparing to get out, but Maverick stepped out first and walked around the car to open the door for his wife.Ava looked at him with a small smile. She had grown accustomed to Maverick's attentiveness, but whenever he did something like this without being asked, it still brought warmth to her heart."Will you be busy today?" Maverick asked."I think so. There are a few things I need to check before the gallery opens. And most importantly, the auction preparations."Maverick nodded. "Then don't forget to have lunch. I'll pick you up later."Ava smiled. "You don't have to go to all that trouble, Mr. Maverick. I can have lunch here with Miss Bell.""I know."

    "Yes, she's my cousin," Ava replied without hesitation. "She might arrive in the city tomorrow. Although the news circulating says she's already here, she's actually still out of town."Maverick nodded slowly, as though the answer matched his expectations. "I suppose she agreed to collaborate with Langham Group because your name is listed as one of the organizers of the art gallery."Ava chuckled softly. "You could say that. But it might also be because she wants to see what my husband is like."Maverick turned to her. "Me?"Ava nodded, a smile still lingering on her face. "Valerian and I are quite close. Of course she'd want to know what kind of man I married, especially after I'd been away from home for so many years."Maverick didn't answer immediately. He understood that beneath Ava's teasing, there was a family bond she had maintained despite leaving Birmingham a long time ago. And if Valerian really was a cousin she was close to, it was only natural that she would want to get to

    "Yes," Maverick replied briefly.Sam immediately broke into a wide smile. "Wow."Ava looked slightly confused. "What?""I didn't expect my uncle's wife to be like this.""Like what?""I don't know." Sam scratched his head, chuckling softly. "I thought you'd look a lot more intimidating."Maverick raised his gaze.Sam quickly added, "I mean, not intimidating. It's just that, you know what Uncle is like. I imagined his wife would be just as serious."Ava finally let out a soft laugh.Sam extended his hand. "I'm Samuel. But just call me Sam.""I'm Ava.""I know." Sam's smile grew even wider. "And now I understand why Uncle never seems bothered when he has to go home early."Ava blushed slightly. "What do you mean?"Sam glanced at Maverick. "Uncle really is a lucky man."Ava smiled faintly. "I'm the lucky one to have met Mr. Maverick."Sam immediately raised an eyebrow. "Mr. Maverick

    Jackson’s rough pull made Ava stumble slightly forward. The bouquet in her hands nearly slipped from her grasp if she hadn’t caught it quickly at the last second.The entire ballroom grew even louder with panicked whispers and restless murmurs. Just as Ava was about to protest, Maverick’s voice cut

    “Take your medicine first, Megan.”Jackson pushed a glass of warm water toward the woman sitting across from him, exhaustion beginning to show clearly on his face. Ever since they left the hospital after Megan’s medical checkup, she had been continuously complaining about the burning pain in her st

    Maverick’s question made Ava swallow nervously.At first, she intended to look away from the man standing in front of her, but somehow… that wasn’t easy to do.“Yes,” Ava answered softly, though there was unmistakable firmness beneath her voice. “I know exactly what I’m asking of you, Mr. Maverick.

    “If you don’t come back, I’ll replace the groom, Jackson,” Ava said without hesitation.On the other end of the line, the man she loved more than anything burst into laughter.“You? Replace the groom who’s supposed to be me?”Ava Celeste’s hand clenched tightly around her phone. “Don’t tell me you
