The Queen's Back

When Bud saw Ava, he subconsciously blocked Ava's way and said, "Ava, nothing happened between Chelly and me. Everything was her -" Evil scheming. Before Bud could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by Ava. "You don't have to say anything. I knew it. But so what? In the end, we're still not fated to be together." After Ava saw the message from Mona last night, she thought about it thoroughly. But, in the end, she was still firm her decision.

She felt that Bud and her were lacking a little fate.

Her love was already gone. She doubted she should rekindle the relationship.

"Ava, what do I have to do for you to givea chance?" Bud grabbed Ava's arm tightly, as if he was holding onto the last bit of hope between the two of them.

Ava felt the warmth from Bud's palm, and she subconsciously struggled to be free. But, Bud held her tightly. "Bud, I've said it before. There's no more chance. It's over before the two of us even before we even started," Ava said coldly.

Even without Chelsea's interference, someone else would have interfered. The only thing lacking in their relationship were their strong faith in each other.

"Ava..." Bud looked at Ava in disbelief. His tone was full of regret.

He had lost Ava for real. Looking at the determined expression on Ava's face, he felt extremely regretful.

Just as Bud was about to say something, Ava was pulled over by someone suddenly.

Joseph appeared in front of Bud and put his arm around Ava's shoulder, as if declaring his sovereignty. He looked at Bud with hostility.

"Ava, let's go. I'll send you to the office." Joseph ignored Bud and pulled Ava toward the car.

During filming, he kept feeling a little flustered. He subconsciously thought of Ava. Fortunately, he had applied for leave from the directort and rushed back overnight. Otherwise, Ava might be tempted by Bud.

Ava cback to her sense as a strong arm suddenly embraced her shoulder.

She looked at the person in front of her and followed Joseph's lead subconsciously.

Ava did not even look at Bud when she passed by him..

She no longer had any feelings for Bud.

"Ava, is it impossible for us to have a future?" Bud's voice could be heard from behind. Ava did not reply as she was being dragged into the car by Joseph.

Sanswers were very clear. There was no need to repeat again.

After they got into the car, the cold air inside woke up Ava a little. When she looked up, she met Joseph's burning gaze.

Ava subconsciously moved back and said, "Didn't you go for filming? Why do you have tto cback?" Joseph followed Ava's move. When she moved a little, he moved a little. In the end, he squeezed Ava into the corner of her seat.

Joseph trapped Ava between his arms and the car seat. The space between them was so tight that Ava could clearly see the small mole on the tip of Joseph's nose.

"Yes, I went for filming, but I missed you. So, I took the overnight flight. Did you miss me, Ava?" As Joseph spoke, he continued to move closer to Ava. Ava could fell his breath on her face. She felt a little itchy. Ava subconsciously shrunk back, but she was stopped by the seat behind her. She could not shrunk back, so she was forced to meet Joseph's gaze. "Yes, yes, I miss," Ava stuttered.

In the dead of the night, she remembered Joseph's advice. He said, "Don't forget to cover yourself with a blanket when you sleep. Don't drink too much cold beverage. "His advice immediately popped up in her mind.

Hearing what he wanted to hear, Joseph moved back a little. There was sdistance between the two of them. "It's good that you miss me. Has he been harassing you, Ava?" Joseph did not mention the name, but both of them knew that he was talking about Bud.

"No. He tried to meettwice in the past two days, but I rejected him," Ava said directly.

"You did a great job. Can I reward you with a kiss?" Joseph said subconsciously. Then, his gaze was burning as he looked into Ava's eyes.

Joseph's heart was beating a little fast. He did not know if Ava would reject him. Based on his intuition, the possibility of rejection was very high. Suddenly, he felt like retracting what he had just said. en It would be a little awkward to be rejected.

Ava was a little flustered by Joseph's stare. Her hands subconsciously intertwined.

After hesitating for a moment, she pressed her red lips against Joseph's cheek.

Her hot breath and soft touch almost sent Joseph to the heaven. For a moment, he could not even breathe properly.

When Joseph saw Bud grabbing Ava's arm at the entrance of Ava's house, he was not confident.

Ava and he were only a vanilla couple. They had never done anything intimate. He was not confident and was afraid that Ava would break up with him because of Bud. Therefore, he was a little anxious to get her affirmation just now and wanted to ensure that Ava was still willing to be his girlfriend.

He did not expect Ava to kiss him.

After Ava's lips left Joseph's face, Joseph was still in a daze. For a moment, he could not tell whether he was in reality or in dreamland. After the kiss, Ava retracted her gaze. She did not dare to look at Joseph. She was so shy that she had taken the initiative.

She did not seem to regret after kissing him. It was just that she felt a little awkward with Joseph.

After the kiss ended, the two of them did not speak for a while. Joseph just looked at Ava in a daze and did not say anything.

After a while, Ava could not stand Joseph's strange gaze anymore. "Are you sendingto the office? Can you start driving?"

Joseph immediately nodded and moved back. He put down the brakes and giggled at Ava. Then, he ignited the car engine and drove toward her company.

Meanwhile, Bud looked at Ava inside the car. He clenched his fists tightly. was Eat Chelly and himself.

He regretted that he did not understand his feelings earlier. *****

Chelly saw Bud waiting in front of her house with a cigarette in his mouth when she walked but from her home. His tie was hanging loosely on his neck. Looking at Bud's condition, Chelly felt a sense of accomplishment. It was a victorious feeling from revenge.

"Chelly, Chelsea, which nshould I call you? Chels?" Bud stood up and looked at the person in front of him. Chelsea smirked. "Do you know the truth already, Bud?" She nodded. "It's earlier than I thought." "Chelsea, nothing happened between the two of us. You were the one who framedsince the beginning. Your goal was to separate Ava and me? Is that right?" Bud asked angrily.
