Chapter 265
Aveline and Dr. Bandit finalized the time for the surgery on Friday.
Looking at the drizzle falling from the sky, Aveline held an umbrella and dialed Maya’s phone.
Maya’s voice sounded weak, and she started to complain as soon as she was connected: “I’m so annoyed. I’ve stayed up all night for two nights. I don’t know if the new boss is sick. All his cells are working cells.”
Aveline covered her lips and snickered: “I remember you told me how handsome he was a few days ago.”
“Is he being so handsome supposed to make others live a living hell? He’s not my boyfriend. If I had known, I wouldn’t have changed jobs. There’s nothing wrong with being a salty fish in the other company.”
After Maya broke up with him, Cameron went to her old company and acted out the drama of the prodigal son coming around every day. Maya resigned after she got angry.
She didn’t want to live her old life of relying on others anymore, so she rejected Alexander’s invitation and switched jobs to a powerful real estate company.
However, she spends thirty days in a month calling her boss a bastard and wanting to make soup with other employees‘ bones.
“By the way, Maya, are you free on Friday?”
“No, Joseph asked me to come on a business trip to Maryland with him. What’s wrong?”
Aveline knew that Maya was born to be strong. On the surface, she scolds her boss, but in fact, she is determined to get ahead in her
career.
Now is the period when her career is on the rise, so she naturally has to work hard.
Aveline swallowed what she was about to say, “It’s nothing. I wanted to make an appointment with you for dinner, maybe next time.”
“Okay, there is plenty of time to come, Aveline, wait for me to bring you the specialties of Maryland.”
Maya hung up the phone, saying a few words of goodbye, and asked Aveline to change the plan again.
Aveline said goodbye with a smile.
Looking at the hazy atmosphere, Aveline stretched out her hands and let the raindrops fall on her palms.
The cool water vapor gave her a sense of reality.
Aveline looked like a homeless child, squatting under a tree with her knees in her arms and watching the streets with people coming and going.
In the vast world, she couldn’t find anyone who could sign for her.
Raindrops slid down the edge of the umbrella and landed in the small puddle in front of her.
The huge display screen opposite showed the venue where Alexander and Nora were getting engaged.
Thousands of acres of cherry fields, cherry blossoms in full bloom.

Chapter 265
He would be wearing a suit and tie like many new grooms to be.
She would be lying on the operating table, not knowing whether she would make it alive or die.
Aveline looked through the address book on her phone, her eyes lingering on the “Mom” note for a moment
All she could think about was Elizabeth’s face.
“My Nora will definitely live a long life. Do you think Nora is in bad health like you?”
“Nora has been in poor health since she was a child. She is finally getting married to the person she likes. Can you withdraw from this relationship that has long been yours and make everyone happy?”
There are still unhealed marks in her open heart.
Aveline’s nose suddenly felt a little sore, her father was lying on the hospital bed, her mother didn’t have her as a daughter in her heart, and the man who once said he would protect her for the rest of his life was about to marry another woman.
She is left on her own now.
She looked at the umbrella above her head and thought that it would be better if she died.
Elizabeth’s meanness knocked away the hope of survival she had finally built up.
It takes decades to plant a seed and grow it into a tree, but it only takes a moment to destroy a tree.
One word from a person can easily defeat all the efforts of others struggling to get up from the mud.
Aveline realized her pessimistic thoughts and shook her head repeatedly.
She wanted to live. She couldn’t die before she could bring the mastermind behind the scenes to justice. She absolutely couldn’t die.
She wiped her tears haphazardly.
In her peripheral vision, she seemed to see someone getting out of a car on the side of the road.
A pair of luxurious handmade leather shoes walked across the muddy stone road and walked up to her step by step.
Aveline raised her head hopefully but met a pair of distressed eyes.
“Miss Blackwood, are you lost?”
Aveline’s eyes flashed with disappointment, “It’s you.”
