"Mike, stop ringing the doorbell." Ben stopped him. "She must have not slept much the night before. Let her sleep in! If she wakes up, she will surely cry again."Mike stopped ringing the doorbell. "You haven't slept much too, right? Do you want to head back to your room to rest for a while? Get the bodyguard to take me to the place of the accident and I'll have a look.""I'm not going to sleep. Every time I close my eyes, I can hear Elliot telling me to save him. I feel anxious. I really want to save him, but I'm helpless! If Avery's feelings for Elliot have not changed, she must be even more upset than me.""Then, let's wait for her!" Mike said, "I'll call Chad to let him know I've arrived safely.""Okay."After Mike left, Ben took his phone out. He planned to call the international search and rescue team he had contacted the night before.They had made a deal the night before. The team would rush over that night, and they would be there in the early morning to start their sear

Some of the people remained on the helicopter to search with a thermal imager, which only showed images of living humans or animals. If Elliot was dead, this machine would not show them where he is.Another group spread out into the mountains to search for him in different areas.The rescue team had begun their search that morning, and after two hours, the helicopter flew back to the mountain to drop Avery off.The moment Mike saw her, he could not stop the feeling of wanting to chastise her from welling up deep within him. "The terrain down there is harsh with countless valleys and forests. I can't even find him... Mike, he is going to die if I can't find him! What should I do?"Avery felt dizzy and leaned her head against Mike's shoulder.Mike was instantly shocked by the temperature of her skin. "You are burning up! Avery Tate, are you trying to get yourself killed?!" Mike took out the medicine he brought with him and stuffed it into her mouth. "Swallow this and let's get out

Mike called an ambulance as soon as their flight landed at the airport in Aryadelle.Avery's fever from the day before grew worse, and the medicine that Mike had given her only brought it down for a while. On the plane, Mike had asked the flight attendant for more fever medication. This was his second time needing medication to bring the fever down. However, the effects did not last long when compared to the first time she had taken the medication. Her temperature soon began to climb. When Mike carried her off the plane, he could sense that her temperature had easily passed forty degrees celsius.She started to twitch and turn as she lost consciousness.Had he known that her fever was this severe, he would have never taken her back to Aryadelle while she was sick.The ambulance arrived shortly after, and once Avery was on it, Mike went in as well and they left for the hospital. Ever since news of Elliot's death spread, rumors concerning him had not ceased in the city. The fact

"I will handle him! Once he gets back, I promise I will get him to marry you!" Mrs. Schaffer promised. "My only request for you right now is to not work or go to school for now. Just stay at home to nurture your baby. I will get you a nanny to take care of you."Troubled, Lilith came up with an idea. "Auntie, my brother might be dead, but my sister-in-law is still alive. I need to talk to her about this first.""Oh... You are talking about Avery Tate! Does she concern herself with your affairs?"She does! She is really kind to me." Lilith was stuck in a difficult position between Ben and his parents, and she could not quite make up her mind as to what to do. Ben's parents had been very kind to her and she did not have the heart to say anything that might hurt them, which was why she needed to wait until Avery returned to make the decision for her.As soon as Avery was rushed into the emergency room, the doctor immediately injected antipyretics and anti-inflammatory medication into h

As expected, her mother passed away after her father, and now she had lost Elliot as well. In the end, she would also leave this world. All stories and rumors about her would soon fade into nothingness as time went by until finally, all marks that she had ever lived would disappear.As Wesley had said before, if Death could cross the boundaries of time and place, then Avery would tell him that she did not want another life. An hour later, Mrs. Schaffer hurried over and Mike was slightly surprised to see her"Ben called me and I asked about Avery. He told me that she came back and I wanted to meet her...""Oh. Ben did call me just now asking where we are," Mike said. "Avery's fever has just gone down. She isn't in a good place right now because of what happened to Elliot, so let me go in and speak to her first.""Okay. Tell her that I'm here for Lilith," Mrs. Schaffer said.Mike was confused but went in to convey her message regardless.In two minutes' time, Mike opened the door

Avery had her back toward him, and she did not respond to his comments.She was being honest when she said that her head hurt so much that she could die. It was also true that she missed Elliot so much that she felt like taking her own life.Since she was a child, she had always prepared herself and lifted herself up whenever she encountered difficulties, but this time, she was exhausted. Even when there were three children she needed to look after, she could not help the grief she felt.After dinner, Mike contacted the doctor to make arrangements for the tests and placed the receipts on the counter while Avery lay on the bed and looked at her phone."Did you say your head hurt? I asked the nurse for some painkillers." Mike handed her the medicine. "Do you need to take one?""I feel better now," she said, "Just put it on the table. I will take them when my head starts to hurt again.""Stop playing with your phone. The internet is filled with news about Elliot so it's quite disgus

The thing that sent shivers down Mike's spine was not the words of the doctor, but the fact that Avery went missing."Sh*t! I said that I would keep an eye on her to stop her from running away, and in the end, she ran away again while I was asleep! Without question, she must be on one of the flights heading toward Ylore," thought Mike. Mike darted out without a word and the doctor immediately stopped him. "Did you hear a word I said just now? She has to come back here for a bodycheck—""I get it! Once I find her, I will take her to the hospital to get checked, but I don't think we can do it here! She's probably overseas now as we speak!" Mike blurted out hastily."Oh, that's okay. So long as she gets checked, it doesn't matter where she does it.""Don't you all keep an eye on your patients here? How can you let your patients run away like that?" Mike said sharply."But— This is a hospital, not a prison. If the patients are capable of walking around, of course, they are entitled

She held onto her phone and mumbled, "It wasn't Elliot's... You didn't find anything of his... He has to be alive..."Ben's heart ached at her murmuring.It had been a week, and the chances that Elliot was still alive were slim.He might have been tossed into the distance when he fell and because there were places that were inaccessible to the rescue team, the search area was limited. Once they managed to get access to those places, they might be able to find Elliot, but it would already be too late.One hour later, Ben found Avery, who was standing at the accident site, frozen like a statue made out of stone.He grabbed onto her arm and dragged her toward the car."Your fever has only just gone down. You are going to catch a cold again," Ben said sternly. "Mike is really worried about you. He told me to take you to the hospital once I find you.""I'm fine. Why should I have to go to the hospital?" She stared at him and said stubbornly, "I want to find Gary. Take me to him!""W

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
