Chapter 2185
Chapter 2186
“Oh, it’s a blessing for us that Dan is able to marry such a good girl like you, Naya.” Daniel’s mother kept praising Naya,
seemingly forgetting what an excellent and exceptional man her own son was.
As she listened to the praises from her relatives and friends, Naya lowered her eyes shyly before raising
them again.
“Mrs. Graham, you speak too highly of me. I’m not as good as you said. It’s my greatest luck to marry
Dan.”
“Listen to how humble Naya is.” Daniel’s mother praised again. “Having a well-behaved and sensible daughter-in-law like you is
a blessing for the Grahams.”
Naya blushed shyly when she heard this.
The face of Naya’s mother was also full of arrogance and smugness. “Naya, you’ll live a good life with Dan in the future. Now
that you’re engaged, you’re no different from husband and wife. If you meet Ava again, you should tell her that you’re the
daughter-in-law of the Grahams. Tell her to know her place and get as far away as possible.”
“Mom, isn’t that a little cruel?” Naya frowned thoughtfully. “Plus, Dan thinks he and I are just faking this.”
“What’s so cruel about it? You were always meant to be the daughter-in-law of the Grahams.” Naya’s mother emphasized in a
serious tone. “Dan is the only one who thinks that this is a fake engagement. The rest of us all know that this engagement is
real!”
After hearing what her mother said, Naya’s face was instantly filled with confidence and self-satisfaction. Victory and joy flashed
across her eyes.
“Having said so much, why hasn’t Dan arrived yet?”
“I’ll take a look outside.”
Daniel’s mother said and was about to walk out.
Ava’s heart was already cold after hearing what she said just now.
As she turned to leave, a palm grabbed her hand all of a sudden.
Ava was startled, but when she heard the footsteps getting closer, the person behind her suddenly pulled her into the emergency
stairway.
The voice-activated lights in the corridor turned on and Ava could see the person in front of her clearly.
“Maisie, it’s really you! I thought I was seeing things just now.” Ava looked at Maisie suspiciously. “Why are you here? Do you
and Naya know each other?”
Maisie nodded, “She wanted me to be her bridesmaid, but I know your boyfriend is the one who’s going to be engaged to Naya
today, so I rejected her.”
After listening to Maisie’s explanation, Ava was in a trance for two seconds.
“Naya asked you to be her bridesmaid? You seem to have a good relationship with her.”
“Ava, I’m sorry. I just found out about it,” Maisie explained quickly, and her eyes were sincere. “Naya and I are not really good
friends, but our families know each other and there are some dealings between us. She’s a few years older than me and she
would occasionally ask me to go shopping with her. That’s about
“I see“ Ava understood, but she soon felt a little sorry. “Maisie, did you refuse to be Naya’s bridesmaid
because of me?”
“Yeah.” Maisie nodded without thinking. “I like you more than I like her, and I also heard their conversation in the lounge just now.
They’re so hateful! Ava, don’t worry. I won’t let you suffer in silence!”
Maisie clenched her fist. She was seething.
Ava could tell that Maisie was a very straightforward person from the incident before. She also liked to uphold justice so
obviously, she was about to go stand up for Ava.
When Ava was still thinking about this, Maisie pulled the metal door of the emergency stairwell open. Then, she barged outside
angrily.
“Maisie, what are you going to do?”
“I’m going to get justice for you! Also, I want to let everyone see the real faces of the Grahams and Mendezes!”
