Chapter 1116 Dare Not Speak Out
After a while, Alexander returned with a bouquet of lilies.
After getting in the car, he handed the flowers to Ava and asked, "Do they look nice?"
Seeing Alexander's beaming smile, Ava frowned slightly and said, "They look nice. Madison will definitely like them."
Alexander's smile froze instantly.
He said somewhat dejectedly, "These are for you and Sunny, not for her."
Ava was taken aback, "What did you say?"
"You love lilies the most. These are for you."
Afraid of any misunderstanding, Alexander spoke very clearly.
Ava looked at him puzzled, "Why are you giving me lilies?"
"You like them, and I happened to pass by, so I wanted to buy a bouquet for you. Don't you like them?"
Ava didn't know what to say. She smiled awkwardly, "It's not really appropriate for you to suddenly give me flowers. If Madison sees them, she will definitely be unhappy. You should give them to her."
"But I want to give them to you."
"Why are you doing this? Giving me flowers out of the blue, you..."
"I just wanted to give you a bouquet of flowers. If you really don't like them, you can give them to Grandma and say you bought them for her."
Ava was silent for a moment, thinking that since he had already bought them, it would be a shame to throw them away.
She nodded, "Alright, I'll give them to Grandma then."
Alexander finally smiled and placed the flowers in the back seat.
"Let's hurry up. Grandma is still waiting for us."
Ava was worried that when they got there, Scarlett might be confused and not remember her. She wanted to talk to Scarlett more while she still recognized her.
"Okay, let's go," Alexander said as he started driving.
On the way, Alexander glanced several times at Sunny in Ava's arms.
"Ava, after you and William divorced, who did Sunny end up with?"
"With me," Ava answered without hesitation.
"Doesn't William have any objections? Doesn't he want any custody?"
Ava couldn't explain the situation to Alexander right now, so she vaguely said, "He can still see Sunny. It's not a complete break. This is between him and me, so you don't need to worry about it."
Alexander felt a bit down.
He nodded, "I understand."
Ava turned her head to stare at Alexander's profile, feeling a sudden pang of sadness.
She opened her mouth, wanting to say something to him, but in the end, she swallowed her words.
What could she say to him? The longer she kept it a secret, the harder it was to speak up.
She didn't know under what circumstances Alexander would find out about this.
Suddenly, she felt a surge of fear.
When the time comes, he will definitely hate her.
The rest of the way, they didn't say much.
Alexander drove Ava to Scarlett's place.
At the door, Madison and Emily immediately came out to greet them.
Madison enthusiastically approached Ava, "You're here. We've been waiting for you for a long time. Grandma has been saying she wants to see you."
Then she went to Alexander's side, took his arm, and leaned affectionately against him, "Alexander, this is great. Grandma will be happy now."
Alexander gently pushed Madison away, creating some distance between them.
Madison looked at him, then glanced at Ava.
She opened her mouth to say something, but at that moment, Ava said, "By the way, Alexander, could you please get the flowers I bought for Grandma?"
Holding Sunny made it inconvenient for her, and she didn't want to keep the flowers, so she might as well give them to Scarlett.
