Chapter 2317
Ava's answer shocked Raegan and Neil.
“Am I right?” Ava spoke again, looking at the two dazed people in front of her.
Raegan was quick to come back to her senses and quickly put down the fork in her hand. “Ava, this"
“Back then, you two colluded to deceive me. You left me alone next to the stall selling churros and never returned. Today, both of you are still working together to deceive me again.”
Ava said with a sarcastic bitter smile on the corners of her lips.
“Do you really think of me as your daughter?” When Ava asked this, her eyes were full of disappointment.
Raegan and Neil stood up nervously. “Ava, we didn't mean to lie to you. It's because ”
“Because you're afraid that if I know he’s my irresponsible father from back then, I’ll reject and refuse to acknowledge him, right?”
Ava interrupted Raegan and asked coldly. Then, she laughed.
“Don't worry, I won't reject him. It’s a rare chance for Dr. Long to examine Dan, and that’s all I want. But other than that, there’s no relationship between us.”
After decisively saying that, Ava turned around and left.
She picked up her bag and walked toward the door.
“Ava!”
“Ava!”
Neil and Raegan quickly chased after Ava at the same time.
“Ava, I didn't mean to lie to you. Really! When I first met you on the street, I didn't know that you were my daughter. I was really happy to see you again, but I didn’t dare to face you...”
Neil's voice became softer and softer the more he spoke.
“Ava, I don’t dare to ask for your forgiveness at all. As long as I can sit and have a meal with you and chat with you, I'll be satisfied.”
Neil looked at Ava's back, and his eyes turned red unconsciously.
After listening to Neil's words, Ava could not help clenching her fists.
She took a deep breath and slowly turned to face Neil and Raegan, who were both clearly disheartened. “Actually, when we ate together last night, I already knew the truth but I told myself to pretend not to. You’ re that irresponsible father whom I don’t want to face but you’re also the neurologist who can help Dan. I’m really conflicted. Can you understand this feeling?”
After she said that, Ava turned around and strode away.
Raegan and Neil kept calling Ava's name to stop her, but they also knew that Ava would not look back.
The two of them looked at each other with self- blame and guilt in their eyes.
