Chapter423 Arousing Fighting Spirit
Ava understood instantly what those last two words meant. She couldn't even bear to imagine the scene. "We have to save your brother. Is your father out of his mind? Even if he wants a business marriage for your brother, he should find a normal person."
"My father doesn't care about that. He only looks at who is advantageous to him. The Thompson family is not only wealthy but also has a great influence behind the scenes. What my father values is power."
"In his eyes, power is more important than his son!" Ava said indignantly.
Seeing Ava a little out of breath, Vicky put her arm around her. "Let's get some fresh air outside."
Vicky took Ava out of the club. The air outside was much better. Ava took deep breaths. Inside, she felt like she was suffocating.
"I'm sorry, Ava. I shouldn't have brought you here today. I scared you, didn't I?"
"It's okay. Thank you for bringing me here. Otherwise, I would have had to watch William get married."
Hearing Ava's words, Vicky asked in confusion, "But how can we stop it? Of course, my brother doesn't want to marry, but..." Vicky sighed. "You also know what kind of person my father is. He doesn't care about that."
Ava thought of what Dalton had said to her before.
She could solve his problem.
"Ava, what's wrong?" Vicky was a little worried when she saw Ava lost in thought. She held her arm and said, "You don't have to worry. No matter what, William's status is secured. He won't be driven out of the Bennett family. After all, prospects and happiness are always mutually exclusive. He has to give up one."
"Why does he have to give up one?" Ava turned her head and said, "Clearly, he can have both, but he is forced to give up. It seems like this has become his fate, which is too unfair."
"There's nothing we ca do. Life is unfair," Vicky said again. "Sometimes we have to face the reality."
"If you know it's unfair, then you have to find a way to reverse it. If everyone condones this kind of unfairness, what will the world become?"
Ava was inspired by a fighting spirit and a sense of rebellion. When everyone else gave up, she wanted to give it a try.
"What else can we do?" Vicky looked dejected. "But for now..." Vicky said a lot of things that sounded particularly realistic, but Ava didn't hear clearly because she was now thinking about a bold idea. She took out her phone and dialed William's number.
But there was no answer for a long time, and the call was automatically disconnected.
Ava dialed again, with the same result. The call went through, but no one answered, and it was automatically disconnected.
She didn't know if William was intentionally not answering or if he didn't hear it because his phone was not with him. Both possibilities made her very worried.
"Ava, are you calling William?" Vicky saw the word "William" on her phone screen.
Ava nodded. "Yes, I need to talk to him, but he's not answering."
"Let me try." Vicky took out her phone and dialed William's number.
It was the same situation as with Ava. The call went through, but he didn't answer.
"If he doesn't answer your call either, something might have happened to him." Ava became more and more anxious.
"Wait, I have an idea." Vicky had a new idea. She composed a text message to William.
Vicky: [Where are you, William? Something has happened to; do respond promptly.]
