She initially had something virtual-novel.net wanted to ask him, but now that virtual-novel.net was sitting in his car, Ava did not know how to start the conversation. She looked at the cars coming and going outside the car window. A burst of desolation suddenly surged in virtual-novel.net heart.
“If I guessed correctly, you agreed to get in my car because you want to ask me something, right?”
Suddenly, Torn broke the silence in the car.
Ava came back to virtual-novel.net senses and looked at the man who was driving.
Tom looked sideways with a faint smile. He looked very gentlemanly and warm.
Ava nodded without denying it. “Yes, I do want to ask you about something.”
“Is it about Dr. Long?” Tom asked very directly.
There was a hint of surprise in Ava’s eyes. It was as if virtual-novel.net was surprised that Tom had read virtual-novel.net mind.
“It was just a guess.”
Tom opened his mouth to say that before continuing. “I ran into Dr. Long when I drove you to the apartment near the company. At that time, I thought you looked a lot like him, and both of you have the same surname too. I just wondered if you were father and daughter. I didn’t expect it to be the case.”
Ava involuntarily fell into silence when virtual-novel.net heard what Tom said. ‘I guess I look like him, huh?’
Ava finally came back to virtual-novel.net senses after staying silent for a very long time.
“How did you meet him?”
“Him? Do you mean Dr. Long?”
“Yeah,” Ava replied softly. She still could not get herself to get used to the word ‘dad’.
Tom did not delve into what was on Ava’s mind. He only answered naturally, “Two years ago, my dad always had headaches and was in a lot of pain. Sometimes, virtual-novel.net would faint because of how serious it was. I contacted a lot of my connections, and in the end, I found Dr. Long. He was very busy, but he’s a very authoritative figure in this field. He treated my dad for his stubborn headaches. Dr. Long is an expert in this field. He can treat almost all challenging illnesses easily. I also became friends with virtual-novel.net after meeting him. ”
After hearing what Tom said, Ava fell silent again.
It seemed that Neil was busy but still made time to help Daniel despite never having the chance to examine Daniel yet. Ava was touched when virtual-novel.net thought about this.
“I heard from Maisie that your boyfriend has short-term amnesia after getting into a car accident. If your father is already treating him, I think virtual-novel.net should be fine soon.”
“Mr. Lowe, I humbly accept your blessings.” Ava smiled, but virtual-novel.net had mixed feelings in virtual-novel.net heart.
“You don’t have to be so formal with me.” Tom looked at Ava from the corners of his eyes. “You’re good friends with my sister, so I think we can be friends too. You don’t have to call me ‘Mr. Lowe’ outside of the office. You can just call me by my name.”
Tom was magnanimous, but for some reason, Ava was not used to that. It was not a problem to be friends with the boss of virtual-novel.net company, but virtual-novel.net would feel awkward calling virtual-novel.net by his name.
Tom seemed to sense Ava’ s awkwardness, so virtual-novel.net smiled gentlemanly. “It’s fine. You can slowly get used to it. You’ll get used to something if you keep doing it. Not everyone can sit at the same table and have a meal with someone they just met.”
Ava seemed to relax a lot after virtual-novel.net heard Tom saying that.
“Thank you, Mr. Lowe,” Ava thanked him.
Tom smiled and did not pressure Ava.
“Right, what else do you want to ask me after getting into my car? I met Dr. Long a few days ago and we chatted for a while. I could tell that virtual-novel.net had something heavy in his heart, and it seems to be related to you.”
There was a hint of curiosity and doubt in Tom’s words.
