S31 100. The Spotlight “Wow...." Ava gasped involuntarily. Even though her voice was very thin, Jeremy's ears caught it. The corners of his lips rose slightly. “Do you like it?” Ava raised her gaze, full of emotion. “Yes, it's very beautiful. Thank you, Jeremy. Mister Jeremy,” she corrected swiftly. Jeremy did his best to suppress a smile and nodded. “Ava,” Emily's sweet voice sounded, “can you show us the dress? I'm curious about the model Uncle chose. It must look very beautiful.” “Yes, Ava. Show us!” Louis nodded with round eyes. Ava put the box on the chair. After a while, a lilac evening dress was spread out. The model was simple, but looked elegant. When the gold thread on it reflected the light, everyone forgot to blink. “Uncle, isn't that a limited edition dress? It was alongside the dres designed in the most anticipated fashion of the new year!” Louis blinked, turning to his sister. “Is that dress you mentioned before?” “Yes, the ornaments are made from real gold thread! The price is many times more than the dress | designed which has an economica minimalist concept.” Eva widened her eyes when she heard that. Her lips trembled. Her body was getting hotter.

But with that gold-embellished dress, how could she possibly beat her? 1/6 Meanwhile, Ava was still stunned. “This is real gold? It's so expensive? Her tone became heavy with guilt. Jeremy shook his head briefly. “Don’t tell anyone, but | got a discount. It's not that expensive.” Ava knew Jeremy was lying. “I can’t accept this dress if the price is exorbitant. | feel like I'm not worth it. What if I ruin it? And | think this dress will be wasted if it's on my body.” Several people shook their heads in unison. “In fact, | think that dress was meant for you. You two are both calm and elegant.” Vivian nodded gently. “Yes, that dress suits you, Ava. Wear it to Auntie’s wedding. You will definitely be the most beautiful guest.” Emily cupped her chubby cheeks and tilted her head. “That dress can lose its shine if someone else wears it. Don’t waste it, Ava,” Kara shook her head with a meaningful smile. Ava took a deep breath. Her tears welled up. “You all are really kind. | actually don’t mind if you give me simple gifts or even nothing. With all the things | received today... how repay you?” “Marry Uncle Jeremy!” Emily quickly covered her brother's mouth. “Louis, don't talk like tha Ava could misunderstand us. It sounds we think she’s a gold digge In fact, we gave her all the gifts sincerely.” Ava looked down while scratching her nose. She didn’t know how to react. Jeremy was still standing next to her. “If you want to repay all these gifts, don’t think of us as anyone else, Ava. We already consider you family. You are already part of us.” 2/6 Kara's words added emotion to Ava’s heart. Biting her lip, she stared at her closely. “Thank you Madam.” “Kara. Just call me Kara. Think of us as sisters.” Ava frowned and shook her head.” felt it would be rude to do that.” “It's okay. Just take it slow. You'll get used to it. | actually find it strange if you keep calling me Madam.” Suddenly, Emily hugged Ava with her eyes closed and an adorable little smile.

She always steals my happiness.’ “Ava, | want to talk to you,” Eva said, jolting everyone. Even Ava raised an eyebrow at her. “Now?” Eva grabbed her wrist. “Now. Excuse me, Everyone.” However, two steps after she took Ava, Jeremy stopped her with or word. “Wait.” Ava and Eva turned their heads. Jeremy was walking towards them. “Ava, give me the dress. Let me put it back in the box.” Eva widened her eyes. Her blood was getting more and more boiling.” Excuse me? Did you think | would ruin the dress because I was 3/0 jealous of my own sister?” Jeremy blinked innocently. “I don't think so. Why did that cross your mind? | just didn’t want Ava to bother holding it while you were talking. That dress is quite heavy.” Eva's breath hitched. Her eyes shook when she saw the people looking at her, including her mother. Mrs. Connor looked disappointed. Quickly, she took the dress from Ava’s hand and then draped it over Jeremy's arm. “Now please excuse me.” Everyone worriedly looked at the two girls leaving. Moreover, Ava seemed resigned to her sister's behavior. “Mommy, will Ava be okay? Eva looks angry. Looks like she’s jealous,” Emily worried. “Please don’t say that,” Mrs. Connor replied, surprising everyone. Her voice was much clearer than before. “Eva is acting like that because she feels the world is unfair to her. Her burden in life is heavy. So please don’t corner her.” Everyone fell silent. No one dared to speak anymore. Even Emily and Louis folded their lips inwards, even though the questions in their minds rang louder. What's wrong with Ava’s family?Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.
