"Where's my gift?" Elliot's hoarse voice rang out.

His voice sounded soft, but it was penetrative. Those three words shocked Avery.

"Why did you lie to me?" Elliot looked at Avery's stunned face coldly.

It was not as if he could not bear that she put him aside to go to the hospital to take care of Adrian, but it was more about the condition that she was honest with him.

"I'm sorry, Elliot," Avery took a deep breath. She tried to reach her hand out once again and grabbed his arm. "Don't stay under the rain. You'll catch a cold."

He pushed her hand away once more.

"Where's that man?" Elliot's tone was cold and frigid. Under the rain, his expressions seemed even more miserable. "Why don't you continue staying in the hospital to take care of him?"

"He's asleep." Words seemed to get stuck in her throat. She explained, "He swallowed a whole bottle of antihypertensive drugs. He almost died. If he wasn't rescued in time he would have died."

"It's best if he died!" Elliot's tone was har

    "I don't want to go in. I'll stay here for as long as the time he spent waiting for me," Avery choked up.The server saw how thin she was. He was afraid that she would catch a cold, so he immediately arranged for someone to bring over a parasol.Then, the server brought a thick blanket over and placed it on her shoulder."Miss Tate, I have already informed the kitchen to serve the dishes. Why don't you have some food and then leave! You should go ask Mr. Foster for forgiveness rather than stay here."Soon, dishes after dishes of good food were served.When Avery saw the intricately made food on the table, she finally understood why Elliot would be so angry. She thought that the date that night was just another ordinary date. It was clearly not!He had invited a famous pianist to perform. There was also such a beautiful light show. The dinner was so intricate it was top-tier. How could it be a normal date?"Miss Tate, please uncover this dish on your own." The server pointed at t

    Mrs. Scarlet hesitated for a while before turning around to get the key.If Elliot and Avery were not about to get married, she would never dare to get the key for Avery.Even though Elliot respected Mrs. Scarlet a lot, he did not treat her as a servant, but Mrs. Scarlet would not dare to do such a thing that crossed the line.If Mrs. Scarlet made a mistake that crossed Elliot's bottom line, Elliot would surely fire her.Mrs. Scarlet would only dare to take such a risk to give Avery the spare key because she was sure that Avery was the future mistress of the house.After Mrs. Scarlet passed Avery the key, she sized her up. "Avery, go take a shower. Don't catch a cold. I'll go get you some clothes."Avery held the key tightly in her hands. She glanced upstairs. She did not know what Elliot was doing at that moment. She did not know if she were to enter his room without permission, whether he would chase her out.At the same moment, in a different place, Henry and Cole were still

    "Oh, you're right. How could my uncle be Nathan's son? Elliot…" At that, Cole went to take Nathan's photo and looked at it closely.The photo was a screenshot of the surveillance footage at the restaurant when he was with Henry the other day, so the photo was a little blurry. Only a rough facial feature could be seen."Dad, don't you think that Elliot does look quite a bit like Nathan?" Cole passed Nathan's photo to Henry. "If you don't think about it, you won't find them alike, but once you think about it, they do look quite alike."Henry looked at Nathan's photo for a while. His expressions froze on his face.Henry had never compared Elliot's looks with Nathan's before. Once he heard Cole mention it, he did feel that they looked alike."If Nathan has an especially amazing son that could rule over Aryadelle, why do I feel like Elliot has all the characteristics that he mentioned?" Cole said confusedly, "Other wealthy people don't look like Nathan at all. Only Elliot."Henry was

    Avery sensed that Elliot must not have fallen asleep yet. He was so furious. How could he have fallen asleep?At that moment, when she entered his room, he must have heard her. She walked over to the bed. She was thinking that if he was not going to say anything, she would lie down next to him and sleep together with him.After running about the entire day, she was rather tired too.Just when she sat by the bed and was about to get in bed, his angry and low voice came through. "Get out!""I'm not leaving." Avery got in bed.Not only did she get in bed. She uncovered the covers and laid down next to him. Before he could do anything, she hugged his body tightly.His body tensed. His breathing got heavy as if he was about to erupt the next second."Elliot, I'm sorry. I was wrong. I know where I went wrong." She buried her face in the nape of his neck and softened her tone. "I saw the light show that you prepared for me. I also saw the ring…"Her words seemed to have agitated him o

    Elliot felt cold. The moment Avery left his arms, he was so cold he shuddered as if he were about to freeze to death. He could not let her go."Elliot, please don't torture yourself again in the future?" Avery had lost count of the number of times. "Whether you made a mistake, or I made a mistake, you have to stop torturing yourself."His breathing turned heavier. He was like a ball of fire at that moment, constantly emitting heat.Avery was worried that a fever might cause him further problems."Elliot, let me go. I'll go get medicine for you." She pushed his arms away, wanting to get up.He quickly grabbed hold of her, going up against her."Elliot, are you trying to die from sickness?!" Her arms hurt from his grab.She did not want to yell at him, but if she did not sober him up, even if she used force, she might not escape his clutches.After her yells, his grip on her lightened a little, but he still did not let her go.She sat in front of him. She could not leave him, bu

    The bodyguard did not immediately realize who was that 'husband' she mentioned."Your husband? Who's your husband?" the bodyguard raised his voice and asked.Elliot could hear the bodyguard's gruff voice even though she was speaking with the bodyguard through the cell phone.Avery blushed immediately. "Who else could it be besides Elliot? We're getting married soon.""Oh! So you're not married yet but you're already referring to him as your husband?" the bodyguard teased. "Alright. Go ahead and take care of him. I'll just ignore Adrian."Had Elliot not been standing beside her, Avery would have asked the bodyguard to pass the phone to Adrian and comforted him. His presence made her wary of doing it.She looked at Elliot after hanging up.He turned his body to his side with his back facing her.She placed her cell phone down and leaned toward him."How do you feel, Elliot?" she asked, reaching out and touching his forehead.He remembered what happened the night before and so p

    "You found Shea, didn't you?" He frowned and proposed another plan. "It's fine if you don't want to kill Adrian, but just in case, I'll kill Nathan's family."Avery was speechless.She could not accept what he proposed because she did not want him to kill anyone."You haven't recovered from your cold yet, Elliot. You need to rest. Don't worry about him. I'll get the bodyguards to keep watch over him in the hospital so Nathan can't get close to him for now." She lowered her eyes and persuaded softly, "We'll try and find another way once you've recovered.""Avoiding a problem won't solve it, Avery." Elliot's voice was cold. "He cannot live under the same sun as me.""Why not? Adrian won't take anything from you. He's just like Shea—someone whose status is probably less than that of a random person on the street. Were you going to kill Shea too if she was alive?" Avery questioned him with a frown."You're being unreasonable. Shea's dead, so there's no basis for your question," he re

    At the hospital, Adrian was in rather low spirits because he did not see Avery that day.The bodyguard sat beside his hospital bed and was absorbed in some mobile game. Meanwhile, Adrian stared at the ceiling in a daze.It did not take long before the door of the ward was pushed open and Avery walked in.Adrian looked at her in a daze and thought he was dreaming. After all, the bodyguard had told him earlier in the morning that Avery was not coming that day."How are you feeling today, Adrian?" Avery walked up to the bed and asked.The bodyguard immediately quit the game and stood up in shock."Miss Tate? Didn't you say you were going to take care of your husband today?" The bodyguard cleared his throat awkwardly. "Why are you here? Is your husband alright? Or did you get into an argument with him?""Would it kill you to talk a little less?" Avery seemed to realize that the people around her, such as Mike and the bodyguard, frequently overstepped their boundaries.It was probab

    Three years later…Ivy and Robert stood at the airport in Aryadelle, anxiously waiting."It's been three years! Your boyfriend is finally here to see you!" Robert exclaimed before shifting the conversation. "He's not here to break up with you, is he? After all, you haven't seen each other in three years. A lot can change."Ivy sighed, "Robert, can you not jinx it? Although we haven't met in three years, we talk on the phone and video call every day!"Robert quipped, "Digital romance.""Anyway, he promised me that he's going to settle down in Aryadelle this time, and we won't be apart again," Ivy said. Robert smirked. "He's got a strong sense of pride. When he meets Dad later, they might not hit it off, and he'll buy a ticket to leave tonight!"Feeling helpless, Ivy was at a loss for words. Just then, a familiar voice called out, "Ivy!"Ivy immediately looked over to the source of the voice and saw Lucas stepping out of the exit, dragging his suitcase behind him. A smile sp

    Mr. Woods did not expect Hayden to be so direct, and he found himself momentarily caught off guard. He had come to ask Hayden for money, but he had not thought about exactly how much he wanted. After all, Hayden's family was extremely wealthy, and he did not want to ask for too little and feel shortchanged, nor did he want to risk asking for too much and having Hayden refuse. It was a tough decision. After a brief internal struggle, Mr. Woods turned to Hayden and said, "I know your family is one of the wealthiest in Aryadelle, so why don't you name the price? I trust you won't mistreat my son and our family." Hayden furrowed his brows slightly. Shelly, noticing his hesitation, quickly chimed in, "Uncle, why don't you make an offer? We're not very familiar with this process. If you insist on us naming a price, we might need to consult my father-in-law." "Elliot Foster, you mean?" Mr. Woods asked. Shelly nodded. "Yes. My father-in-law isn't as easygoing as my husband. After a

    "All right. Let's find a place nearby to sit and talk." Mr. Woods breathed a sigh of relief. "Good! Our house is actually nearby. Would you like to visit? Ivy has been with us for many years, and our staff has a close relationship with her." Hayden glanced at Shelly and asked, "Should we go?" "Sure!" Shelly said. Mr. Woods immediately invited Hayden and Shelly into his car and drove them to the Woods' mansion. Upon arriving, Mr. Woods instructed the servants to serve tea and refreshments. He pointed to the butler and said to Hayden, "This is our butler. He hired Ivy's grandmother." Hayden nodded. Mr. Woods then introduced Hayden: "This is Irene's older brother, the renowned businessman Mr. Hayden Tate." "Hello, Mr. Tate. Irene was a wonderful young lady," the butler said. "We all liked her very much. When we heard of her passing, we were truly saddened. Fortunately, she didn't actually pass away! Ivy is a very sensible and resilient girl, one of the strongest I've eve

    Ivy's eyes were red as she said, "Hayden, Lucas' mother has passed away, so I won't be able to spend time with you for a few days." "It's okay. Given what has happened, we're not in the mood for fun either. After we attend his mother's funeral, Shelly and I will return," Hayden said. Ivy nodded. "How are funerals handled here?" Hayden asked. Given Lucas' relationship with Ivy, his younger sister, he felt a sense of duty to help Lucas with the funeral arrangements. "It's similar to how it's done back at home. Wealthy people can have elaborate funerals, and those with less money can opt for simpler ceremonies. Those who can't afford much at all can forgo the ceremony and opt for a simple burial," Ivy said. "What if someone wants a more elaborate funeral?" "Hayden, do you want to help with his mother's funeral? He doesn't have any close relatives here, so there's no need for an elaborate ceremony," she explained. "I see. Go and talk to him about it. I'll help with whatever I

    Lucas hung up, tears welling in his eyes. Ivy stood by his side and asked, "What's wrong, Lucas?" "My mom has passed away. You should keep your brother company! I need to head back to the hospital." "I will come along! Aunty seemed fine just now, so why did she suddenly pass away?" The two hurried toward the car, completely forgetting about Hayden and Shelly. Hayden and Shelly watched as they left awkwardly, and Shelly said, "Honey, let's go to the hospital. I think Lucas' mother has passed away." "Sure." The two caught a taxi and hurried after Lucas. Meanwhile, in the hospital, Lucas arrived to first encounter the doctor and then his father. Mr. Woods tried ingratiating himself with his son, saying, "Lucas, I came to the hospital to see your mother, but when I arrived, she had already passed away. What a shame!" "Are you sure she had already passed away before you came? I was here earlier today, and when I saw her, she was still alive!" Lucas said. Mr. Woods reto

    Mr. Woods sneered, "What do you mean? Are you looking down on me? Although the Woods family has fallen on hard times, we're still a prominent family in Taronia! Lucas may be foolish, but are you any wiser? If it weren't for me backing Lucas, would the Fosters even look at him?" "Shut up! The Foster family isn't narrow-minded like you! Ivy's family doesn't dislike Lucas, so don't go causing trouble! They don't want to see you at all!" Lucas' mother retorted. Mr. Woods scoffed. "Is that so? Do you really think they don't look down on him? Why wouldn't they? Are they planning to make Lucas marry into their family instead of the other way round?" "It's none of your business! You never cared about Lucas, and now that he's independent, he doesn't need you anymore! You wouldn't have come to me repeatedly if Ivy wasn't Elliot Foster's daughter and if she wasn't interested in Lucas. Do you really think I have no idea what you are plotting?" Mr. Woods countered, "What nonsense are you ta

    Ivy did not hesitate, immediately shaking her head. "I'm not leaving. Don't worry about me; just focus on yourself." "Staying here is just a waste of time." "I've been studying and interning so hard for so long. What's wrong with taking a break now?" Ivy argued. Before long, Hayden and Shelly had finished their shopping, and Ivy and Lucas immediately joined them to go to the hospital. Lucas' mother had no idea that Ivy's brother and sister-in-law were coming to visit her, so she appeared a bit uncomfortable when they arrived. She tried to sit up, but her body failed her. Ivy raised the head of the hospital bed. "Aunty, my big brother and sister-in-law came over to Taronia for a visit. They wanted to see Lucas and you." "Oh, this is really embarrassing. It's a blessing for my son to know Ivy..." Lucas' mother muttered sheepishly. Shelly reassured, "Aunty, don't say that. Lucas is outstanding. Otherwise, Ivy wouldn't have fallen for him." Lucas' mother continued, "I've

    Throughout the meal, Ivy found it hard to enjoy her food. Lucas and Hayden discussed everything that mattered, and the conversation went smoother than anyone had anticipated. Hayden was not upset, nor was Lucas. It was a better scenario than what Ivy had hoped for, but she still felt depressed. "Lucas, my husband and I would like to pay your mother a visit. Would that be okay?" Shelly asked after finishing her food. "Sure," Lucas said. "Don't we need to ask your mom first?" Ivy asked. "It's fine. We can just head over right away and introduce them once we arrive." Lucas' mother grew weaker every day and had stopped using her phone altogether, so it was her nurse, whom Lucas had hired, who reported his mother's condition to him daily. "You restarted your business and have to take care of your mother simultaneously; you're really strong. Most people would crumble under the pressure," Shelly commented. "Ivy had a tougher life before. She didn't crumble, so I won't eith

    After what Ivy said, Lucas added, "I want to focus on my career for now. Marriage is secondary until I become more successful." Hayden sneered. "Running a business isn't as simple as it seems. What if you fail or never achieve anything out of the ordinary?" "If that happens, I won't drag Ivy down," Lucas said. "At least you know your place." Ivy felt as though her cheeks were on fire. "Hayden, even if Lucas fails, I won't give up on him. I won't let him go just because of his financial state." Shelly grabbed Hayden's hand again, signaling to him to control his temper; he could be rude to others, but he could not be so demanding with Ivy. Ivy sensed that she was slightly out of line, and her tone eased. "Hayden, we shouldn’t judge people based on their wealth. Our family is rich enough, and there really aren't that many people out there who can compare to our financial state, so why does it matter how wealthy my partner is?" "Ivy is right. Love matters most. Even if we man
