Chapter 70 Ava wanted to struggle, but in her haste to push the man away, she smelled a familiar scent. Leo released her and whispered in her ear, “It is me. Don’t make a sound.” Although Ava did not know why, she immediately shut her mouth. She directed her questioning gaze towards Leo but he only placed a finger on his lips, signaling her to not say anything. A few minutes later, there were sounds of footsteps and a few muffled voices were heard. “Where did she go?” “I don’t know. I have been guarding the entrance and I haven’t seen her leave. Could she have disappeared into thin air?” “What are you trying to say? Do you think that this is some kind of a television drama?” “Boss, I was only saying.” “Did you leave your post for even a second?” The man who had been guarding the door scratched his head when he heard that. He was about to deny but when he looked into his boss's angry eyes, he decided to tell the truth. “I was waiting for a while and suddenly I became pressed.

Chapter 72 After the doctor confirmed that Ava was okay and it was only a matter of time before the drug completely leave her body, Leo signed in relief and his tensed heart finally relaxed. He felt like he had been walking on thin, sharp needles and it was only now that he could land his feet on the ground without hesitation. Ava looked at her husband’s face, trying to remember what happened. But the only thing that she remembered was Leo pushing her into a cubicle. Her body was feeling very uncomfortable at that time that her memories were muddled. “Honey, what happened? Did I drink too much again?” Leo looked at her and shook his head, “No.” “Then what happened? Why are you not saying anything?” Leo did not know what to say. He was not sure if Ava would be traumatized by today’s events. Although the enemies’ plans had not worked, he was not sure if it would leave a negative impact on her. But he also knew his wife. If he did not say anything, then she would keep on pestering

Chapter 74“Miss Ava, I have been longing to meet you. I cannot believe that it finally happened.”“You have been following me for quite some days now, I don’t know you and I don’t really know what you want from me.”The man looked at her and smiled gently. He did not seem bothered by Ava’s doubtful gaze on him, “You look so much like your mother. If no one knew better, they might think that your mother has never aged.”Ava was shocked when she heard that, “You knew my mother? Are you from the capital?”The man nodded, “Of course I knew your mother. The West family and my family have close ties panning from centuries to centuries. You can say that we each make up a side of a coin.”Ava frowned. She could not help but ask, “What is your name and which family do you come from?”“Sorry, it was rude of me for not having done a proper introduction, I am Karl Moore from the Moore family of the capital.”“Haven’t heard of it.” Ava said.Actually, she knew nothing about the capital except for

Chapter 76 Leo arrived in the Capital in the middle of the night. Although he was worried and he immediately wanted to go and find Ava, Tyler told him to have some rest and that was the first thing they would do in the morning. “Ava is not in the castle, and unless we know where she is, we cannot startle the old man. Let him continue to think that everything is working in his favor and we will attack when he lists expects.” Leo spoke through the phone in a cold voice, “Uncle, Ava is my wife and she is so precious to me. If anything happens to her, even if she loses half a strand of her hair, I will turn the capital upside down to avenge her. I hope that when that time comes, whoever is involved would have the heart to face the consequences.” “Leo, don’t worry, I am on your side. If I had been bold enough and stood up for my sister, then she would not have gone through what she went through. I am not going to let anything happen to her daughter, that, I swear on my life.” Leo only

Chapter 78 Karl and Old West were stunned by Samantha’s sudden slap. Karl’s cheek turned red immediately. He had never been slapped in his life, and although he wanted to curse and say some mean words, he did not dare do it. Old West looked at his wife and asked with furrowed eyebrows, “Dear, what are you doing? Why did you suddenly slap Karl? Did he do something to make you angry?” Samantha placed her hands across her waist and looked at her husband, her eyes red from anger, “Don’t you dare dear me! Where is my granddaughter?” “What do you mean?” Old West asked. “Were you eavesdropping on our conversation just now?” “Do I need to stoop to the level of evil people just to know what they are planning? Now, if you don’t bring me my granddaughter, I am going to jump through this window and die.” As Samantha said that, she walked towards the window. The castle had four floors and they were currently on the fourth floor. Samantha was already so old and if she threw herself down, the
