Inside the main bedroom.
“Crunch, crunch…”
Ava listened to the sound of chewing through the phone, feeling helpless yet amused.
“Darling, you didn’t even forget to nag me in the message you sent me earlier, asking me not to contact the guy who injured me. What on earth is going on? Do you know that person?” Alyne chewed on an apple, asking in confusion.
“Anyway, he is not a good person; just stay away from him.” On this issue, Ava was very insistent.
“Ooh~. From your tone, it sounds like he is extremely bad.”
“Very bad! Bad to death! He can even be called the ultimate bad man! So you definitely cannot get close to him!”
“Cough, cough, don’t be agitated! If I ever see him again, I’ll turn around and walk away~. Will that do?” Alyne said as though she was trying to coax her. “I promise to keep my distance from him!”
Ava smiled, but her smile did not reach her eyes.
That bastard who caused Alyne to not even be at peace in her death, in this lifetime, had better not show up in front of her again.
Alyne finished her apple and wiped her mouth. She turned to the television in the room. “Just now, the news broadcast was very interesting. Previously, at one of the parties, there was a person who kept finding problems with you—Amy Johnson. The one who has a huge ego, do you remember?”
“Why are you mentioning her?”
They had just met yesterday. Toward such a person, Ava was lazy even to bring her up, but she never expected that Alyne would suddenly mention her.
“Didn’t you see the news? Yesterday, at Sydney Square, Amy wore a bikini and pole danced for three hours! It was as though she had taken too many drugs and gotten too high! The number of people who gathered to watch was considerable. She was immediately taken away by the police after that! Also, the news that she was featured in wasn’t some simple media entertainment gossip outlet, but the official government business news! Ha, I really laughed to death!”
“… She really went to dance?”
“Of course! Earlier on the television, they even showed several pictures taken from afar! One glance and you can tell it’s Amy!”
“Ah, she deserves it.”
“Why do I feel like you know more about this? Anyway, that Amy’s mouth is smelly to the point where there were several times when I felt like giving her a few slaps! Now, she has received the appropriate retribution! She deserves to be embarrassed! I just don’t know what on earth did she take to become so crazy~. Aiya, the hospital is really boring. There are barely any news coming in. I can only watch the television~.”
Ava smiled, “God is watching everyone’s actions. Her embarrassment are but the consequences of her own act.”
While speaking, Ava picked up the remote controller, turning towards the crystal display screen in the tea room in the other corner.
Having found the Sydney news station, the story about Amy’s pole dancing had already ended. Now, they were showing the scene of the Johnson family being surrounded by the media.
Considering Amy’s father’s temper, he was most likely already about to explode. His own daughter had embarrassed herself to the point where the whole Sydney knew. She was even suspected of having taken drugs, leading to her actions of pole dancing while wearing so little. These were all news headlines that would make it difficult for him to face anyone.
Even if the Johnson family wrecked their brains, they still could not be considered one of the top families in Sydney. Nonetheless, their influence was not small. However, after such an incident, the Johnson family’s company stocks would most likely fall.
Such a butterfly effect, Amy herself could never have seen it coming.
“Darling, her issue is not related to you, is it?” Alyne suddenly asked.
“Why do you ask?”
“I heard that the Johnson family has people behind them and that they are all shady people. You definitely cannot be involved in this. Otherwise, if they were to use dirty methods, they would be difficult to deal with.”
Ava recalled the resentful expression in Amy’s eyes yesterday and smiled lightly. “Don’t worry. So long as there is the Clifford family, no matter what tricks they choose to use, there are not many people that can touch me.”
“That is true. If they want to touch you, not only do they have to consider the Clifford family’s reputation, they also have to consider that the Sylvester family is not easy to deal with.” Alyne clicked her tongue while she said, “Tsk tsk, your biggest support is Antonio. If you still don’t learn to hold onto your husband’s thigh tightly, one day, if he were to be stolen by someone else, you would definitely cry!”
Ava smiled. “Don’t worry; his thigh will only have me. There is no space for anyone who wishes to hold onto it~.”
Antonio stood outside the door. When he heard, “will only have me,” his lips curved. He brought out his phone and his long fingers dialed a number.
He walked towards the hallway. His deep and calm eyes stared out of the window. “Help me with something.”
The voice coming through was a male’s low voice. It had some lazy sexiness in its tone. “En?”
“Keep an eye on Sydney’s Johnson family’s every action. Inform me immediately of any unknown person coming into contact with them. Watch all of their actions clearly. Don’t allow them any chance of scheming in the dark.”
“Johnson family? They managed to provoke you?”
Antonio replied calmly, “Somewhat. Watch them.”
It was silent for a moment before laughing sounds came through. “All right, I got it.”
Antonio placed down the phone, turning around to see that Ava had already walked out of the main bedroom.
“Hungry again?” He directly walked over.
Ava touched her stomach with some embarrassment. “Maybe it’s because of falling sick. My body is consuming too much energy even though I already ate last night.”
“Return to the room. I’ll have Auntie Berta send food up.”
After seeing her remain by the door with some hesitation, Antonio eyed her again, “What else do you want?”
“I want to eat the four-style glutinous rice ball soup that is sold near your company.”
Seeing Antonio furrow his clear brows, she rushed to say, “Actually it’s fine even if I don’t eat it. Everything that Auntie Berta makes is delicious. I’ll just eat the breakfast that she made.”
Seeing that she was acting like a glutton for the first time, yet rushing to explain herself, Antonio could not hold in his smile. He raised a hand and gently rubbed her hair. “I’ll go buy it.”
“Really?”
Antonio curved his lips, signaling for her to return to the room to wait.
Ava then obediently returned to the room. When she closed the door, she secretly peeked outside to find that Antonio had already gone downstairs. She felt like Alyne’s gluttonous mouth had influenced her. One bowl of Auntie Berta’s porridge and a bowl of rice ball soup could make her happy for half a day.

The four-style rice ball soup that Ava spoke of was indeed very close to the SLV Corporation.
A black Rolls-Royce Ghost was parked by the road. Antonio came down the car to see that this small shop had a long line of people in front of it.
He glanced at the time and walked towards it.
There were also two young girls queueing. One of them suddenly pushed the girl next to her, speaking quietly, “Quickly look, isn’t that Antonio?”
The other girl turned around, replying softly with a face full of shock, “That should only be a person with a physical resemblance, no? Why would CEO Sylvester come to this sort of small shop personally to buy glutinous rice ball soup?
“You see that car parked nearby? That is the 100th-year-anniversary edition Ghost! There is only one in the entire world! I heard that this is Antonio’s car. There shouldn’t be any mistake, right?”
“My god! It really is! Quickly pinch me. Am I dreaming? We actually saw the male god in such a place-”
