When Avery heard the name, a sense of familiarity overwhelmed her.

She had heard of that name before but could not match the face to the name.

"I remember!" she suddenly said in a low voice. "They all call him Gary!"

"Yes. Him. Gary Gould."

"I don't like him, and I told Elliot to stay away from him. He hates me for it. He even got a lady to come over to tell me to leave Elliot." At that thought, she took a deep breath. "If Elliot is really with him, I'm afraid I won't be able to get him back. He knows that I don't get along with Gary."

Chad looked troubled. "Actually, the problem right now is not whether you can get him back or not, but knowing whether he is safe, and how is he faring. If he is with Gary, as long as he is still alive and well, it doesn't matter."

"Hmm. Do you know where Gary is currently at? Which country?" Avery planned to go look for him.

"Gary has investments all over the world. He doesn't have a fixed base, but I know that he started in Ylore," Chad said. "I

    Shea cried terribly."I know you find this hard to accept, but don't worry. Even if you are not Elliot's sister, he still loves you. Despite learning the truth, his feelings for you haven't changed." Wesley took a piece of tissue and wiped her tears."Shea, don't cry! Even if you're not my aunt, I still like you!" Layla was heartbroken to see her cry. "See, even Hayden asked you to move in with us. We like you!"Shea heard Layla's bright voice. Her tears stopped. "I like you all too, but I still care a lot for Elliot. He hasn't even come to see me.""He is missing!" Layla said to Shea. "He doesn't know that you are here because we can't get through to his phone."Tears fell from Shea's face once more."Shea, didn't you say that you were afraid to let him see you in this state? It's good that you can properly recuperate. Once you have healed, Avery will make sure he sees you." Wesley wiped away her tears once again."Why is he missing? Is he in danger?" Shea was very worried. "Wh

    Elliot was not going to die! Neither was she! She would not give in to Cole's plans!After collecting herself, she came to the inpatient unit. Mike and the children had just left Shea's ward. "Mommy!" Layla saw Avery and ran toward her. Avery opened her arms wide, hugging her daughter in her arms."Mommy, I missed you so much! Do you miss me?" Layla said coquettishly in Avery's arms."Of course, I did. If you two hadn't returned, I would have gone to you." Avery kissed Layla on the cheek."Mommy, we saw Shea. She knows that Daddy isn't her brother. She cried, but we coaxed her." Layla recounted to Avery what had happened. "When Shea gets discharged, let her stay with us!""Sure! But I have to go look for your Daddy first," Avery said to her children truthfully. "I'm going to go to Ylore. Whether I can find your father or not, I will return once per month."Layla pouted. "If you only come back once per month. That means you'll only be back twelve times in one year. What if you s

    "Fine, fine, you're right, but are you sure you want to go to Ylore?" Mike's expression turned serious. "That country isn't safe!""I've checked up on it. It's not as scary as you think. Don't talk about this in front of the children." Avery was afraid that the children would worry."Okay. I'll shut up. Anyway, just stay safe.""I'll take the bodyguard along with me. I'm there to look for Elliot, not seeking death."Mike nodded. "If you could get him back, I think you two need to reflect upon this issue. If you two are going to fight so badly every time, you two might be able to take it, but could the children take it? Could your friends, me, for example, take it?""It's not that we both want to fight. Do you think we feel good about it?""Then, stop fighting! What's wrong with giving up shares? It's for Adrian that idiot, not for Cole. Chad said that Elliot also has a lot of other estates. There would be no problem in raising the three children and you. If I think about it, you

    "I called a media company to ask for their source. They said that it was an insider source. I asked who it was, and they said that they heard it from someone." Chad was breathing heavily. "They saw Aryadelle Morning publishing this article, so they went ahead and published one too. Aryadelle Morning's source was from their reporter based in Ylore."Chad did not want to believe the news, but when he heard that the source was from Ylore, he was thunderstruck!"From what you're saying, you mean the news is real?" Mike's face turned blue. He could not believe what he was hearing.Although Avery did not follow them back to Aryadelle, once this news spreads, she would soon find out about it."She has been so focused on looking for Elliot. How can she accept such bad news?" thought Mike."I can't confirm the news till I see Mr. Foster's body," Chad said with difficulty. "But Mr. Foster might really be at Ylore. Now that I heard the news came from Ylore, I'm a little panicked.""Calm dow

    What appeared was news about Elliot in Aryadelle. Mike suddenly had the idea to enter Gary's name. Instantly, a series of related news appeared.The latest news about Gary was him in a black suit at the florist buying a bouquet.He looked like he was going to attend a funeral. "Is he going to attend Elliot's funeral?" thought Mike. Mike looked at the time the news was published. It was the day before, so Elliot died the day before and the news of his death spread to Aryadelle on that day…Mike screenshot the news article and sent it to Chad.Chad replied with a long series of ellipsis.When Ben saw the news, he immediately bought a plane ticket to Ylore.Tammy, on the other hand, immediately called Avery. At that time, it was midnight in Bridgedale. Avery had taken half a sleeping pill. She was sleeping rather soundly.Tammy could not reach Avery on the first try. She was extremely worried, so she called her again.With something so huge like this happening, Tammy had to le

    In Aryadelle, once the news of Elliot's death spread, everyone was talking about it.Eric did not tell Layla about this, but Layla overheard people talking about it when she was in the washroom.She came out of the washroom and approached Eric. She could not hide the sadness on her face."Is Daddy dead?"Eric was suddenly taken aback. He did not know how to answer this question."I heard two ladies talking about Daddy's death." Layla's were red. "Why did he die? I don't want him to die!"Eric immediately hugged her and headed to the car."Layla, we don’t know if this is true or not. The news came from abroad. Your Mommy is already going to check on this. Once we have more accurate news, I'll tell you."Layla's tears fell. "I don't want Daddy to die. Although he always fights with Mommy, he treats me well. He also treats Mommy well. If not, he would not have always given in to Mommy…""Hmm. I know he is a good man. Don't cry. What if he is fine? Let's wait for news from your Mo

    "I don't even remember your brothers' mother. How could I remember yours? Stop with your delusions. When I was younger, I only played with the cheapest whores. If you're going to acknowledge someone as your mother, nothing good will come out of it. On the contrary, you will be sucked dry by your trash of a mother!"Lilith's heart turned cold when she heard what Nathan said."Everyone else has the right to hate me, except Peter and you! If it was not for me, do you think the two of you could survive up till now?" Up till that point, Nathan still thought that he did nothing wrong with his two children."Visitation time is up." The guards said and took Nathan away.Lilith looked at Nathan's slightly hunched back. Her eyes became wet involuntarily. He was no longer the proud, arrogant, intimidating man of her youth. He was old.He was not a competent father. He had never loved her as a normal father would. However, she could not deny that he had brought her up.When she said that she

    "Aunt Helen, no. I never want to use the child to get his money. It was all an accident." Lilith felt like she was receiving judgment.She never had that sort of ambition."You two, a single man and woman, spending time under one roof. Of course, accidents were bound to happen. Hahaha!" Helen could not hide her delight. "You are Elliot's sister. His father and I will never treat you badly. I know you suffered a lot in the past. We will care for you like our daughter."Lilith looked at Leon and Helen's kind expression. She wanted to say something but she could not bring herself to say it.She had never felt such warmth from a parental figure. She was engrossed in the feeling and reluctant to pull herself away from it. She knew that it was not good, but she could not control herself.At Ylore, after a few tries, Ben finally found one of Gary's men."Mr. Foster has died in a car crash.""A car crash? Are you sure it was an accident and not murder?" Ben was in a fit of rage. "Get Ga

    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
