Ava would definitely not let Damien know about that, or else he would really be furious.

So, she casually replied, “I have also dried my mother’s hair.” Damien nodded and said, “You haven’t
been home for a long time, right? It’s the weekend tomorrow, so I will go back with you.”
Ava was surprised and happy at the same time. “Sure!”
Ava’s mother had told her before that Damien and she didn’t really get along. Hence, Ava had always
thought that Damien disliked her mother too and that he wouldn’t want to interact with her.
So, she didn’t expect him to offer to go back to her mother’s house with her!
Early the next morning, she got up and went out to buy a bunch of supplements and gifts for her
mother. Damien looked at the shopping bags in her hands and frowned, “We have a lot of these bird’s
nest supplement at home, so why did you buy even more of them?” “The ones at home are yours!
These are for my mother, so they can’t be the same.” “Why can’t they be the same?” Damien said
unhappily. Ava talked as if the Radbury Family and she were separate entities. Thus, it was clear that
she didn’t consider herself part of the family.
When he thought about it, it seemed like she had never asked him for anything. Ava had even paid for
all of Jean’s toys out of her own pocket.
To be honest, he didn’t like it when she acted like she was an outsider.
“Ava, you and I are officially family!”
“Of course not! There’s still Jean!” Ava held Jean’s hand as she spoke.
When the three of them arrived at Jessica’s house, Jessica was surprised and nervous at the same
time. “What brings you guys here today?” “We came to see you! Jean hasn’t seen his grandma for so
long and he misses you!” Ava smiled and replied.
“Grandma, do you miss me?” Jean extended his arms sweetly towards his grandma. However,
Jessica’s expression was stiff and awkward as she replied, “Of course I do! But …” When she saw that
Damien was also here, her expression turned even uglier. s, Ava did not realize that and was about
to enter the door with the gift bags. “Let’s head in, shall we? Mom, I’m going to put these things inside
first.”
This was her house. So of course, she made herself at home and entered as she pleased. But the
moment she stepped in, her body froze.
The bags of supplements and gifts in her hands all fell onto the ground. “What’s wrong?” Damien
rushed in and gripped her shoulder. Then, his expression changed as well.
This was because Keenan Nagel was sitting casually on the sofa in Jessica’s house! Ava’s father who
was indifferent and had abandoned them was there. However, Ava did not recognize him. At that
instant, she felt a sharp pain in her head. It was as if some kind of memory was about to emerge from
her mind, but it quickly vanished before it came back to her. D “Are you okay?” Damien asked in a soft
voice.
She shook her head. Although her head hurt badly, it was just for a split second.
“Mom, this is…” Ava did not recognize who Keenan was as she only thought that he was her mother’s
friend. On the other hand, Jessica looked very awkward. Keenan stood up and wanted to get closer to
Ava but in the end, he didn’t. “Mr. Radbury, long time no see!” Instead, he greeted Damien. Then,
Damien softly said to Ava, “This is Keenan Nagel, chairman of Nagel Group. He is also your father.”
Father…
The word seemed very strange for her. Thest time she heard it was a long… long time ago.
Was this person really her father?
She looked at Keenan confusedly and saw him staring at her. He looked weirded out as if he wanted to
say something but he refrained in the end. So, it seemed like he was really her father!
Ava’s heart started beating rapidly.
Recently, she had more or less heard about her own past from Jessica and the people around her. So,
she knew about what happened, but she didn’t expect to see him now.
“Ava, I heard that you were alive. I have been looking forward to meeting you, but I didn’t expect to do
so today.” Keenan’s tone was gentle.
Meanwhile, Damien faintly felt that something was wrong. In his impression, Keenan never had such a
gentle attitude.
However, Ava didn’t sense anything off. It made sense as she couldn’t remember how cold and distant
her father was in the past.
“Ava, I’m your father. Don’t you remember me?” Keenan asked again. “…
Then, Damien held onto her and said to Keenan, “Ava has lost her memory. She doesn’t remember
many things about the past. Please forgive her.” “Well, of course! She’s my daughter… I wouldn’t take
it to heart.” Keenan said with a smile. Looking at his expression, nobody knew if Keenan was
convinced upon hearing that. Roughly four years ago, Keenan’s second daughter, Beth Nagel, had
kidnapped Damien and Ava. Unfortunately, she failed to do so and passed away in the process. After
that, the Radbury and Nagel families hadpletely fallen out with each other. For many years, they
had no business rtions with one another.

Therefore, the rtionship between Keenan and Damien had already copsed beyond repair. So,
seeing him in Jessica’s house today was strange indeed. “I think you can leave now. I’ll call youter.”
Jessica hurriedly pushed Keenan, signaling him to leave.
To his credit, Keenan didn’t say much. He only said to Damien, “Alright then. We should meet up and
have a chat next time.” Under Jessica’s urging, Keenan finally left the house. At this point, Damien was
even more weirded out. Something was not right. From what Damien knew of Keenan’s temper, it was
impossible for him to evene and visit Jessica. Moreover, he had spoken so politely to Damien!
When they were finally left alone in the house, Jessica let out an awkwardugh. “Mom, what the hell is
going on?” Ava asked. “Humph…Your father and I used to have feelings for each other. What’s wrong
with him visiting me?” Nevertheless, Damien said, “If that was the case, then why were you in such a
rush to get rid of him?” “That’s because…” Jessica was at a loss for words. It happened so suddenly
that she hadn’te up with a suitable excuse yet! Ava took Jean’s hand and sat down on the sofa. To
be honest, this was her mother’s private affairs and it wasn’t necessary for Ava to pry too much.
However, it was simply too unusual! “Mom, can’t you tell me the truth?” “What’s there to tell you? Ever
since you married into the Radbury Family, you hardly evere to visit me anymore. Is it so wrong to
have a cup of tea with your father?” Jessica said unhappily. “I never said it was wrong! But didn’t you
say that my father was a cold and heartless man? I thought you cut contact with him!” “That was the
past. Can I not keep in touch with him now? Ava, you don’t remember the past anymore, so don’t
meddle with my business!”
Ava was speechless at this point. It was true that she didn’t remember the past, and she’d suffered
greatly because of that. However, this was her mother, and she was the only family member that Ava
had left apart from Jean! She couldn’t just ignore it and let it slide!
