Speak of the devil.

A taxi stopped in front of the yard and her bodyguard got out, before helping Avery out of the car.

The blinding lights in the yard shone down upon the colorful figures of the guests and Avery immediately spotted Elliot in the crowd.

He was dressed in black, holding a wine glass with one hand while placing another arm around a woman dressed in a white dress, who leaned against him with a joyful smile.

The two were such a beautiful couple that they looked as though they were made for one another.

The bodyguard followed her eyes and recognized Elliot. He cleared his throat and said, "Why don't we just stay out of this, Miss. Tate? Going in there is pretty much like looking for trouble ourselves. He seems quite content with his new wife!"

As soon as he said the words, Avery started striding towards the yard; more precisely, towards Elliot.

The bodyguard could only force himself to follow, only to be asked to wait in the companion area as soon as he entered the y

    She thought that she had heard him wrong. He said that he would take back everything that he had lost; was he referring to Sterling Group?"If that's the case, Elliot, let us clear things up between us tonight!" She grabbed his arm again. "I need to talk to you alone, because it concerns our privacy!"With that, she dragged him away from the crowd.The two stopped in the back yard and Avery looked at him with tears in her eyes, before starting to explain, "I told Henry that I will try to get you to transfer your shares to Adrian, because I found Shea. Shea's kidney was failing and needed a transplant. Only Adrian's kidney was a compatible match but they hid him away and I couldn't find him no matter how hard I tried. Shea's condition was critical at the time and I only compromised because I wanted to save her. I didn't tell you about this because I was worried that you would act out when they corner you. Elliot, your shares are with Adrian, not Henry or Cole. Adrian is in Bridgedale

    Elliot looked at Avery, who fell to the ground coldly.His condescending and arrogant look reminded her of when they first met many years ago.Back then, he had just woken up after being a vegetable. He was cold and heartless to whomever, just like how he was at that moment.Why was he like that? He treated her as if they were strangers.No. He did not treat her like a stranger. He treated her as if she was the enemy. He thought that all his loss was due to her. He said he wanted her to pay the painful price.She was suddenly curious as to how he was going to make her pay!He retracted his cold gaze from her and strode away. When he passed her by, he brought a gust of wind along too!The night breeze was like a slap on her face! It made her burn in pain.Avery painfully thought that if she was going to die soon, he might not even look at her.Soon after, the bodyguard rushed over and picked Avery up."Miss Tate! Are you alright?! I should have listened to Doctor Hutchinson an

    However, he had indeed changed! He had become aloof and ruthless. It was pointless talking sense into him. He refused to talk about the past either.There seemed to be a huge boulder pressing onto her heart. It was heavy and painful. Perhaps, letting go was the only option.The next morning, Avery decided to follow Jed Hutchinson to Bridgedale to undergo surgery.It was not that she could only do the surgery in Bridgedale. It was just that it was pointless for her to remain in Ylore.Elliot had decided to bid his past farewell and start a new life. Avery remaining here would just be in his way.When she was packing up, she held the black notebook in a daze. This belonged to Elliot. She should return it to him."It looks like the memory erasure is amazing! Elliot Foster doesn't remember his ex-wife anymore! I heard that his ex-wife went to look for him last night, but he shoved her to the ground…""Does that mean our hospital is going to get famous? After all, it was the vice pre

    Jed furrowed his brows. As a doctor, the patient's health was above everything else. As Avery's old schoolmate, Avery's sickness was also above her relationship with Elliot."What if Elliot needs a long time to regain his memories? What if he can never regain his memories?" Jed asked, "Are you planning to drag this on forever? Your tumor might not be big right now, but when it grows bigger, it might become malignant. By then…""I will check up on it regularly. Once the tumor becomes bigger, I will immediately undergo surgery. Jed, I won't risk my life." Avery looked at Jed and told him her thoughts, "Elliot has just done the memory erasure surgery, now is the easiest time to regain his memory. Give me a month. Let me try!""One month." Jed swallowed his saliva. "If he still doesn't have any feelings for you in a month, you have to immediately do the surgery.""Okay." Avery was thankful for his understanding. "Jed, I shouldn't take up so much of your time. Why don't you go back to

    Everyone was silent.Only Tammy harrumphed and said, "You men are all jerks!"Ben was provoked by that. "How can you say that?""I heard that you got Lilith pregnant, yet you don't want to bear the responsibility. Is that right?" Tammy shut Ben up. "I pity Lilith for meeting a huge jerk like you."Jun nudged her with his elbows, asking her to stop talking."He is a jerk, yet you don’t let me call him out on it? Even if Elliot was here, I would scold him right in his face!" Tammy joined them that day so that she could take her anger out on Ben."I never said that I wouldn't care for Lilith! I went to look for her, she said that she had already found another guy to take her in! What else can I say? Was I going to fight it out with the other guy? How ridiculous!" Ben raised his glass and downed it in one go.Chad immediately poured him more wine."Then you should properly reflect on why Lilith would rather spend time with the other guy than with you. It's because you're a jerk!" T

    "All you need is money to bring a child up. Big H has lots of it!" Mike saw how bewildered Ben was, and he was delighted. "Lilith initially wanted to go to the hospital for an abortion. She got Big H to accompany her to the hospital. I don't know what happened in the hospital, in the end, Big H decided to fork out the money to care for her."The anger in Ben's heart instantly vanished. He was feeling so awkward at that moment that he wanted to hide."Hayden is doing much better than you, the biological father! He is not even ten years old yet! Don't you feel ashamed?" Tammy mocked."Stop it! I am ashamed!" Ben sighed. "Lilith can't do anything well but provoke me. She doesn't tell me anything and always deliberately makes me angry.""You know how aloof Hayden is. If Lilith can go along with Hayden and yet can't go along with you. It's clear whose problem it is." Tammy took a jab at him."Fine. It's my problem. I'll go home and reflect on this. I'll go find her once I've calmed dow

    After getting in the car, Avery found a contact on her phone and dialed the number.The call was picked up after a while."Hello, Nick. Avery here."The person on the other end of the line chuckled when he heard her voice. He said, "Where did you get my number?""I logged into Elliot's account and found your number," She cut to the chase, "I need a favor from you.""Doctor Tate, in the mansion in the forest, we have already settled everything. I don't owe you anything anymore, so I won't help you," Nick rejected her directly."Yes, we have indeed settled it in the past, but how sure are you that you won't need my help in the future?" Avery's tone was gentle. "As one grows older, the risk of a brain-related disease increases. So, if you get sick in the future, I'll treat you for free." Nick was tempted by her offer."What do you need me for?" Nick's breathing got heavier. He snickered. "Don't tell me that you want me to help you take Elliot back? I heard about your embarrassing

    About an hour later, a black sedan appeared in front of the mansion.Nick warned Avery. "Your man is here."Avery smiled bitterly. "He is not my man. He is my debtor."The night before, Elliot said more than once that he was going to make Avery pay, and because of that, Avery could not sleep for the entire night.Even thinking back about it, her heart still hurt.Elliot opened the car door and got out of the car. He was still in black that day, making himself seem taller.His bodyguard did not enter the hall with him. He changed his shoes and entered the hall. He immediately saw Avery. A hint of surprise flashed across his eyes.He felt different seeing her during the day compared to seeing her the night before. Maybe it was because people were much calmer and logical in the day."Elliot, sit," Nick said, "How's your body?""Quite good." Elliot's expressions resumed their usual coldness. He accepted the cup of tea from Nick, took a sip, and placed it down."Are you and Ruby p

    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
