Jojo and Coco's Unexpected Love

Chapter 196 Only an Idiot Wouldn’t Take the Chance

A man in his forties stepped out of the car, his square face exuding an air of dignity. He was dressed modestly, but around his neck sat a precious Blue Tiger’s Eye necklace.

Ava recognized the man before her, and her whole being surged with excitement. He was the tycoon who controlled the entertainment industry, having established multiple film and television companies. Many of today’s hottest celebrities were nurtured under his company’s guidance.

However, he seldom appeared in public. Why would such a prominent figure visit such an obscure place?

As Calvin laid eyes on Ava for the first time, a hint of dissatisfaction flickered across his face. Involuntarily, he compared her to his daughter, lamenting that she had not inherited Luciana’s favorable genes. Despite his initial disappointment, Calvin’s expression softened considerably as he thought about the fact that this girl shared Luciana’s blood.

“What’s your name?” he asked gently, his gaze filled with warmth.

“Mr. Calvin, I’m sorry for what I did just now. I’ll compensate for the repair costs,” Ava replied, feeling a bit fearful and hesitant to reveal her name.

“No need to worry about compensation. Our meeting was destined. Please tell me your name. You remind me of someone I once knew,” Calvin reassured her.

“I’m Ava Johnson…”

Calvin’s heart brimmed with joy. He was certain that the girl standing before him was Luciana’s daughter. He also recalled that Luciana’s useless husband was one of the Johnsons.

Having missed the chance to take care of Luciana in the first half of his life, he was determined to protect her daughter in the second half.

Realizing that although their first encounter was pretty

abrupt, Calvin still spoke from the depths of his affection. ” Ava, I feel a connection between us. Would you be willing to become my goddaughter?”
