Silvermist Isles.
Jace Kingsley was running on a treadmill in the gym when suddenly, his phone buzzed.
He pressed the pause button, and the treadmill ca to a halt.
He picked up the phone and answered, "Hello?"
"Mr. Kingsley, Miss Sterling’s assistant just went to The Kestrel Apartnts again, stayed for about half an hour, and has now left."
"I know."
He hung up the call, placed the phone beside him, pressed a button on the machine, and the treadmill started moving again as he continued running.
His eyes looked out at the bright sky through the window, his face full of indifference, although that indifference carried a layer of chill.
He knew where she was, but he just didn’t know what she was hiding from him.
He had to rely on Lauren Howell to find out.
...
Ti passed bit by bit, and in the blink of an eye it was noon, the sun scorching the entire villa, heat rising.
At this mont, in the bedroom, the person who had been sleeping well suddenly opened their eyes.
"Ava Sterling, if you dare to leave, I’ll break your legs."
The deep voice fell into her ears, as if it ca from Hell, and Ava Sterling’s heart began to pound violently.
She had a dream, dreaming that she was pregnant with Poe Vaughn’s child, yet they hadn’t ended their agreent, so to avoid Poe Vaughn noticing, she planned to leave with her pregnant belly.
Never expected, just as she was about to board the plane, he suddenly appeared in front of her, holding her pregnancy test results, his eyes dark as they looked at her: "Pregnant with my child, and you want to leave?"
He was terrifying, his eyes unprecedentedly dark, her heart compressed rapidly, then she turned and ran.
But he imdiately grabbed her wrist, holding her in his arms, "Ava Sterling, without my permission, you can forget about leaving!"
Ava Sterling was scared, truly frightened awake.
Even now, as she was awake, her eyes wide open, she dared not move.
Imrsed in imnse fear, she couldn’t pull herself out for a while.
It was unknown how much ti passed, Ava Sterling swallowed, her eyes moved, looking around, then she closed her eyes.
It was a dream, just a dream.
Not real.
The way Poe Vaughn looked in the dream was terrifying, as if he would really devour her whole.
She couldn’t provoke him.
Really couldn’t provoke him.
Clutching her heart, she tried to calm herself down, desperately trying not to be scared by just a dream.
However, even though it was a dream, she couldn’t help but think more.
She was certain of her decision to have a child, and very sure that this child must be Poe Vaughn’s, no choice, he was just too excellent.
She couldn’t find anyone better than him.
Of course, Jace Kingsley was also excellent, not inferior to Poe Vaughn.
But she only shared a bed with Poe Vaughn, and perhaps because Poe Vaughn was her first man, all experiences were great, they were very compatible, so she hadn’t thought of finding another man.
No matter how good Jace Kingsley was, she never thought of having a child with him.
But now the problem is, Poe Vaughn doesn’t want a child, of course, she fully understood that.
He didn’t love her, and marrying her was just a sham wedding, he certainly wouldn’t let her bear a child of The Vaughn Family.
However, she really likes children too much, especially thinking that this child would be as smart as him in the future, she yearned for it intensely.
Ava Sterling frowned.
This is difficult.
Last night they had so much trouble, he didn’t give her a chance to get pregnant either.
She originally wanted to cling to him, make him lose control inside, but she was exhausted by him.
Not passing out from him ssing with her was already good enough, thinking of clinging to him, was simply dreaming.
At this mont, Ava Sterling frowned tightly, tightly enough that knots could be tied.
She had to plan long term.
Judging by last night’s situation, there was one thing she could be sowhat sure of, and that was he was still very keen on this matter.
Having them roll in the sheets again shouldn’t be hard.
The difficult part was how to get him to give her a chance, and then if she did get pregnant, what would she do.
Ava Sterling pondered deeply, for the first ti so seriously.
Absolutely cannot let Poe Vaughn know her thoughts, not let him perceive anything.
She could be anxious about other matters, but not in this one.
Ava Sterling’s gaze sank, her face full of resolve.
This was a major matter, a matter of heaven, she must do it well.
After a long ti, Ava Sterling was fully awake, she pulled back the covers and got out of bed, but as she moved, she gasped.
A severe discomfort emanated from a certain part of her body, and instantly the scenes from last night flashed before Ava Sterling’s eyes, she gritted her teeth imdiately.
He was too ruthless last night.
Bearing the discomfort between her legs, Ava Sterling slowly got out of bed, then slowly moved to the bathroom.
In the past, Ava Sterling would have cursed Poe Vaughn in her heart ruthlessly, but now she wouldn’t.
This is the premise for her to have a child, the more he is like this, the more opportunities she has.
If he wasn’t interested in her, that would be troubleso.
After washing up in the bathroom, Ava Sterling recovered quite a bit, though still not as well as usual, she felt much better, at least not obviously showing any oddities.
Returning to her room, tidying herself up, Ava Sterling went to find her phone to check the ti.
Not sure what ti it was, there was sothing else to do today.
That is, to go to Jace Kingsley’s place at Silvermist Isles to cook for him.
Once this task was done, she intended to distance herself from Jace Kingsley.
At the sa ti, she also wanted to show him her determination.
Even if he thought she was a terrible person, it didn’t matter.
"Hey, where’s my phone?"
Ava Sterling looked around but couldn’t find her phone, thought carefully, and then rembered last night in her worried state, she hadn’t taken anything when she got out of the car and went straight into the villa.
So, her phone was in the car.
Ava Sterling imdiately went downstairs and to the car to get her phone.
Seeing many missed calls, all from Lauren Howell and Jace Kingsley, along with a dozen or so unread ssages, also from the two of them.
Ava Sterling checked the ti imdiately, and her mouth twitched, almost one o’clock.
Can’t bla the two for calling and ssaging her.
Ava Sterling didn’t hesitate, promptly called Jace Kingsley.
At this ti, at The Kestrel Apartnts.
