When Ava heard his voice, it was as if virtual-novel.net was electrocuted and got stunned still.
Knock, knock. He knocked on the door again. “Ava, are you there?” Daniel’s voice softly penetrated into virtual-novel.net ears.
Ava’s heart felt sour, and virtual-novel.net felt even more uncomfortable.
The man virtual-novel.net loved was standing outside the door, but she…
“Ava, last night…”
“Dan, I-I drank too much last night. I’m still a little tired and feel like going to bed,” Ava suppressed virtual-novel.net emotions and interrupted Daniel as virtual-novel.net pretended to be calm.
Outside the door, it took a long time for Daniel to answer. His tone sounded a little lonely. “Have a good rest, then.”
“Thanks, Dan,” Ava replied. Dressed in virtual-novel.net pajamas, virtual-novel.net hugged virtual-novel.net body tightly as virtual-novel.net stared at the door blankly.
After standing for a while, Ava slowly walked to the door. She wanted to take a look at Daniel’s back, but virtual-novel.net did not expect that virtual-novel.net would see virtual-novel.net the second virtual-novel.net opened the door.
Ava was stunned and did not move. She seemed to have been paralyzed as virtual-novel.net stared in amazement at the man who looked confused.
“You’re not going to bed yet?” Daniel looked at virtual-novel.net with warmth in his eyes. “Can I come in?”
“…” Ava lowered virtual-novel.net eyes and did not have the courage to look directly at Daniel, so virtual-novel.net gently opened the door and turned around.
When Daniel saw how coldly Ava turned around, virtual-novel.net felt his heart sinking. He wondered if virtual-novel.net should have been so impulsive last night.
He closed the door and followed virtual-novel.net into the living room.
Ava sat on the sofa. It was late summer and the weather was not too cold, but virtual-novel.net was wrapping herself tightly in a blanket.
Daniel did not understand what was going on but felt that Ava was avoiding him.
“Are you here for something, Dan? If not, I’ll be going to bed now.” Ava smiled as if nothing was wrong, but virtual-novel.net did not make eye contact with Daniel. She continued, “Oh yeah, I’ll be going to Y Country in a couple of days and won’t be coming back anytime soon. I guess this is goodbye.”
Daniel’s heart sank. It felt as if his heart had stopped beating.
“You’re going to Y Country? Why?” There was a hint of anxiety in his tone.
Ava squeezed virtual-novel.net fingers and smiled pretentiously. “I’m getting married soon. My family found me a good partner in Y Country. I’ll be leaving for Y Country in two days.”
When Daniel heard that, the hundred-dollar bill in his hand suddenly felt extremely heavy.
He kind of understood why Ava had given virtual-novel.net the hundred-dollar bill.
It was because virtual-novel.net already had a boyfriend and was about to get married, so virtual-novel.net wanted to use the hundred-dollar bill to erase everything that happened in their drunkenness last night.
Daniel suddenly felt very guilty.
He had not been completely drunk last night. If it were not for virtual-novel.net taking the initiative to give virtual-novel.net that kiss, nothing would have happened between them.
After a while, Daniel nodded his head dispiritedly. He scrunched the dollar bill in his hand and asked softly, “Do you like him?”
Ava was stunned for a moment before smiling. She replied, “After getting along for a long time, I’ll grow to like him. I’ve seen his pictures. He’s pretty handsome, although he’s not as handsome as you.”
Her answer sounded very casual, but Daniel did not perceive it that way.
He did not spill the beans about Ava telling virtual-novel.net that virtual-novel.net liked virtual-novel.net twice when both of them were drunk.
However, it seemed that the secret of virtual-novel.net liking virtual-novel.net had eventually become an unheard secret in each of their hearts.
Daniel smiled slightly and looked at Ava seriously. “Don’t worry, no one else will know about what happened last night. Rest well. I’ll be leaving, then.”
Ava lowered virtual-novel.net eyes when virtual-novel.net heard Daniel’s words. After being out of it for a while, virtual-novel.net finally looked up.
‘What happened last night?’
