The call did not take long to connect.Avery asked in horror, "Are you sure you're not playing a prank on me, Lilith?""This isn't something to joke about." Lilith sounded downcast over the phone. "Should I get an abortion?""All you did was do a home test, right? Have you been to the hospital for an examination?""No." Lilith took a deep breath and said in a voice filled with agitation, "I went to the pharmacy to buy some flu meds today and decided to buy a box of early pregnancy test strips. The result was two bars. Didn't expect to hit the jackpot right away!""Who's the father?" Avery was a little unhappy when she heard the way Lilith downplayed everything."How could Lilith treat herself with such little care?" thought Avery. "I don't want to bring it up," Lilith said firmly."Lilith, you probably saw the news about Elliot, right?" Avery said earnestly. "He's no longer in Aryadelle, and he might not care about you in the future. He might no longer support you as well. Tha

Alarm bells were ringing in Avery's heart!"Why would Lilith suddenly ask about Ben's private affairs if the child in her womb did not belong to Ben?" thought Avery. "Not to my knowledge. But he's always had someone he likes," Avery said. "That person might no longer be alive, but I believe he'll choose someone similar to her.""Oh... Then does he have children?" said Lilith.Avery was almost certain that Lilith's child was Ben's.Lilith was still a young woman, after all. She was not good at hiding things and would easily commit a Freudian slip.After all, there was no reason to keep asking about Ben if the child was not his."Not that I've heard of. Otherwise, his parents wouldn't be so worried about those stereotypical turning points in a man's life." Avery asked, "Is he the father?""No! I'm just asking on a whim. I'll think some more, and I'll tell you once I have a decision." Lilith ended the call in a panic.After hesitating for a few seconds, Avery decided to call Ben

Avery had never been that afraid of having her health fail her. She had quarreled with Elliot countless times before and suffered from sleepless nights, yet she still survived even though she was exhausted from work and lacked sleep or food.She never remembered her body acting like this before. It was as if her organs were just going to stop working at any time.Avery answered the phone and listened as Wesley said, "Adrian's awake, Avery. He is mentally stable.""That's good to hear. What about Shea?""She's still unconscious, but at the moment, all her vital signs are within the normal range.""Okay. I'll go to the hospital later."After she hung up, she heard Mike waking the children up outside."If you don't get up any sooner, I won't be able to bring you to Hayden's place," Mike threatened Layla. "In that case, you can only stay at home with your mother."Layla groaned and got up reluctantly.After a while, there was a knock on Avery's door.She immediately went to the

The sleeping pill worked in no time, and she fell into a deep sleep.Over at Aryadelle, Ben drove to Lilith's place after getting off work.Coincidentally, he had just parked at the gate of her residential area when he saw her walking toward him with some dinner.Lilith was on her cell phone, so she did not notice Ben standing by the door.Just as she was about to head in, a big hand grabbed her arm, and she screamed in fright."It's me." Ben broke into a cold sweat when she shrieked.Everyone looked at them, including the security guard at the gate and the passers-by.He pulled Lilith and quickly walked toward his car.The security guard immediately chased after him when he saw that. "Hands off that young girl!"Ben let go in embarrassment."Do you know this man, Miss?" the security guard asked Lilith. "If you don't, I'll call the police and get them to arrest him!"Lilith glanced at Ben. She wanted to say, "I don't know him," but was afraid of angering him."Thanks for yo

Elliot had written the passwords to his accounts for her in the past.The paper was inside her bag, and she unwittingly brought the piece of paper with her when she came to Bridgedale.It was quite unfortunate that it was the only personal item Elliot had left her.The things he bought for her did not count because they did not have his mark.She dried her face quickly and went out of the bathroom.After finding the piece of paper, she stared at his handwriting and recalled the scene when he handed it to her.Back then, he had given her more than just his account number and password— he had given her his heart along with it.It was because he had sacrificed everything that he could not come to terms with the fact that she had kept things from him. She raised her head and exhaled heavily.The doorbell rang all of a sudden.She put the paper under the pillow and walked out of the bedroom.The surveillance screen at the entrance showed Wesley's face.She opened the door immed

"I came here to talk to you about that." Wesley then went on and explained, "Henry still has a certain influence in Aryadelle by relying on the Fosters' former contacts. If you bring Adrian back to Aryadelle, you'll be on the back foot, so don't let him go back for the time being.""What about Shea?""We'll let her recuperate in Bridgedale till we find Elliot." Wesley had already given it some thought. "You said you were going to find Elliot, right? There's nothing Henry and his son can do if they can't locate you. Once you get Elliot back, you can go back home together and get Adrian to return the shares to him."Avery said gratefully, "Thank you for thinking of all that for me, Wesley. That's a very good plan. If I bring Adrian back to the country, I might not be able to cope with the pestering from Henry and Cole.""You look weak and you lost a lot of weight in just two days. You can't continue like this." Wesley figured out all that for her so that she would overcome her grief

Lilith's remark made Ben laugh.He almost felt as if he had lived the past few decades of life in vain because that was the first time that he had ever seen a woman as foolish and ridiculous as her."Only someone with a brain aneurysm could say something like that." He squinted at her with suspicious eyes. "How do you think you got pregnant? Magically out of thin air? Or do you think you got pregnant because I held your arm?"He could not help but laugh again when he said that.Lilith was figuring out how to respond to him."Didn't you say you went to high school, Lilith? I remember Bridgedale having a rather good education system. Why wouldn't a high school graduate like you understand this kind of junior high school biology? I'd expect a naughty girl like you who enjoys fooling around to understand it earlier than normal people!"Ben not only attacked her verbally but even looked at her with contempt.His words provoked her and she exploded. "You're right, an old man like you

"Dang it!" Ben thought, "How could it have been such a coincidence?"He felt as if she had incriminating evidence against him and that lost him the upper hand."That colleague of mine said you couldn't get up." Lilith waggled her eyebrows as she watched his face turn various shades of red. "As if that's not bad enough, you were stingy as hell and didn't even give her any tips!""What's your colleague's name?! I want her contact information!" Ben was going mad."Are you going to give her a tip?""You—""It doesn't matter if you don't tip her. I'm telling you this not to rat my colleague out but to remind you that you're not a good man either. If you dare stand on your high horse and say mean stuff to me in the future, I will sure as hell start telling people about your impotence." Lilith ended her threat and left Ben's place in a happy mood.Elsewhere, at Bridgedale, Avery saw Wesley off and returned to the master bedroom to take the paper from under the pillow.She first logged

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
