S31 135. Tiny Squads

After hanging up the phone, Jeremy scratched his temple. He was a little confused about how to tell Ava about previous incident. He

couldn’t possibly cover up the truth. However, he also didn’t want to hurt her feelings or make her family relationship even more strained.

“Should I skip the sexy dress part? That might be more acceptable to Ava. But we promised not to keep anything a secret.”

Jeremy furrowed his brows deeper. At that moment, the door to his study opened.

“Ava?” He stared wide-eyed when he saw his lover enter with an expression that was difficult to describe.

“Did Eva come here earlier?” Ava’s voice was low and a little hesitant., Her hands intertwined in front of her stomach.

Jeremy’s jaw dropped. “Yes….’

However, before he had time to explain further, Ava ran over and hugged him. The arch of Jeremy’s eyebrows instantly changed

meaning.

“What’s wrong, Ava? Has something happened?”

“Thank you.” Ava pressed her cheek against Jeremy’s chest. She closed her eyes. “Thank you for keeping my trust by not being influenced by Eva’s advances.”

Jeremy’s eyes widened again. “You know about that?”

Ava nodded before meeting his gaze. “I saw it on CCTV. She was that close to you. Why didn’t you take the bait?”

“Wait a minute. Were you watching the CCTV?”

Ava smiled faintly. “Yeah, my gut feeling said that she was planning something. And it turned out to be true. She came to your study. So, why didn’t you touch her? Isn’t she… hot?”

Jeremy snorted in amusement. “What kind of question is that? There’s nothing sexier than you, especially when you’re in my bed.”

While grimacing in disgust, Ava threw a light punch at his chest. “I’m serious. Why are you even joking?”

“I am serious. I just want to touch you, Ava Connor. I don’t need another woman. And most importantly, I don’t want to hurt your feelings, let alone break your trust.”

Ava’s lips curled with emotion. With teary eyes, she tilted her head. ” Then now, what are your plans?” She changed the course. She knew the two of them could end up in bed if they kept discussing love and loyalty.
