Chapter 2229
When Ava heard what Madeline said, a glint of surprise flashed across her eyes.
“Maddie, where are you now?”
“I'm at the house Chloe invited you over that day,” Madeline replied.
Ava replied that she would go over immediately before hanging up the phone. Before she hung up, Ava had vaguely heard the voice of a woman beside Madeline who seemed to be talking to her. Daniel knew that Ava was going to look for Madeline. He was relieved.
Ava asked him to go back to work first and Daniel obeyed.
Not long after Daniel left, Ava suddenly received a call from Chloe.
Chloe was talking in an airy and arrogant tone, “ Ava, what’s wrong? Aren’t you coming to work today? Are you not coming to work because of some personal matters? Your work attitude is so horrible. If you don't come today, I'll complain to your supervisor.”
“I knew that you, a popular influencer, would say that. Complain if you want to,” Ava replied nonchalantly and was about to hang up. However, Chloe's provocative voice came from the other end. “Tsk tsk, people are so different when they have a wealthy mother. They’re so arrogant when they speak.”
Chloe then threatened her again, saying, “But I heard that you’re very stubborn. You even told the media that your mother's money has nothing to do with you. So, if you don't come today, how are you going to get ten million dollars to pay for the liquidated damages?”
Chloe warned Ava using the agreement again.
Ava did not want to pay any attention to the wicked Chloe, but when she remembered that Madeline was also in that residential area, she figured she would just go over since she had to face this horrible person sooner or later anyway. Hence, Ava did not give any response to Chloe and simply hung up the phone.
