Chapter 1288

Author: Simple Silence
Avery picked up the call, and a male voice from the other end of the line that said, "Avery Tate, there's something I have to tell you."

The caller was Nick.

Avery sat up and said, "What is it?"

"Do you still want to see Elliot?" asked Nick.

"Of course. Are you going to help me?" asked Avery.

"Haha! Why are you so hard-headed? He already forgot everything about you, why can't you just forget about him?" asked Nick.

"How he treats me is his problem. I have to make sure to do everything in my power to make sure that I don't regret this in the future. I'm sure you didn't call me just to laugh at my predicament," said Avery.

"Of course not, I have better things to do than laugh at you. Ruby's birthday is coming up in a few days, the Goulds are going to throw a birthday party for her. Are you scared of the sea?" asked Nick.

"No? Why?" asked Avery.

"The party is scheduled to be held on a yacht. Gary Gould invited me, but I don't feel like going," explained Nick.

    "Nick, I know that no matter what you say, you still care about us. Everybody has their ideal life, mine is to spend my remaining life with Elliot. Even if something were to happen to him, I won't die with him, I will find some way to save him," promised Avery."Tsk!""I might need your help by then," said Avery."Don't you dare involve me!" said Nick as he hung up the call.Avery put the phone down and laid back down.Avery should be worried about Elliot's situation after hearing all of that. But to her surprise, Avery was more worried about Elliot falling in love with Ruby.According to Nick, all men would like a woman like Ruby, beautiful, petite, and adept at making men around her happy. Avery did not know if Elliot would be able to refuse her advances.Before Avery could think of anything else, a sudden shooting pain shot through her head and she could only curl into a ball.Avery knew that her condition was worsening, she could tell that just by the rate of her headache.

    Avery took the dress from her bodyguard, and after looking at the dress, she could not help but frown.Even if this wasn't something that she would normally wear, she decided that maybe she should just listen to her bodyguard's advice.Avery did not know what would make Elliot regain his past memories, she would do anything if there was even a slim chance of it working.At the same time, at Aryadale, Ben and Lilltih were sending Leon and Helen off.Both Leon and Helen were actually unwilling to leave at first. After all, Lilith was pregnant with Ben's child and they wanted to spend their time with her until she gives birth to their grandchild.However, Ben was adamant that the both of them leave.The reason he was so adamant about his parents leaving was because of how good his parents were treating Lillith, Ben was scared that Lillith might get too pampered.For example, the first day he took Lillith back to his home, his mother already brought her out shopping and paid for eve

    "If you aren't here to bury your father, what are you here for?" asked Ben."You impregnated my sister, what do you think I'm here for? Don't think that just because Elliot isn't here, you can do whatever you want with our sister! You have to marry her!" said Peter, exasperated.Lilith did not understand what her brother was saying."I understand, if it's money you want, just name the price, I can give you money. As for marriage, your sister doesn't want to marry me, and neither do I want to marry your sister," said Ben.Peter was outraged when he heard this, "Lillith, are you mad? Do you not know how rich he is? If you are pregnant with his kid, why are you not marrying him? You can't find anybody that is richer than he is.""Just tell him how much money you want," replied Lilith."I think there's something wrong with your brain. I need to talk to you in private," said Peter to Ben.Ben turned around and saw how embarrassed Lillith was, his heart instantly went soft, he said to

    "Why is she here?" asked Ruby.Ruby saw how gorgeously Avery was dressed and could feel her heart fill with envy.Before seeing Avery in full makeup, Ruby had never felt that Avery could compete with her in the looks department.But after seeing Avery today, Ruby could not help but feel that she seemed like a little girl next to the elegance and maturity that Avery exuded so effortlessly.Ruby was, of course, unhappy with this.Elliot did not reply to Ruby, all of his attention was on Avery."Ruby, happy birthday. This is Nick's gift," said Avery as she handed the present in hand to Ruby."Nick? Nick told you to come?" asked Ruby as she took the present from Avery."Yes, Nick told me to come in his place," replied Avery."Why do you know Nick and why did he ask you to come in his place?" questioned Ruby as she passed the present to one of the workers who was standing beside her."That is a long story, are you sure that you have the time now to listen to me tell you about it?"

    Elliot could not focus on the party, so he tried to excuse himself from the guests, "I don't think I've seen Christopher, I have to go to the ballroom to see if he's there."After that, Elliot left the guests in big strides.At the same time that Elliot was turning into the ballroom, Avery was walking hurriedly out of the ballroom, and both of them walked straight into each other.The contents of Elliot's glass instantly spilled all over Avery's dress.After looking through the guests in the ballroom, Avery could not see Christopher, that was why she hurriedly walked out and straight into Elliot.Of course, Avery had no idea that Elliot actually came to the ballroom to look for her.Just as Elliot didn't know that the reason Avery was hurrying was to return back to the upper deck to make sure that nothing bad happened to him."You spilled your drink on my dress," said Avery.The waiter walked over and Elliot placed the empty glass on the waiter's tray and took the towel off of

    It wasn't long before Ruby discovered that Elliot was missing. He was nowhere to be found, he wasn't in the ballroom, nor was he on the deck.The thing that worried her was that Avery was also missing.Ruby could feel her heart thumping in her chest, were they meeting right under her nose?Ruby could not help but feel that with how beautiful Avery looked today, anything was possible.Ruby immediately took out her phone and dialed Elliot's phone, but nobody picked up her call.Ruby started to panic and sent out people to look for Elliot.Ruby didn't have to wait long before one of the staff members came back to Ruby and said, "Ms. Gould, about twenty minutes ago, Mr. Foster accidentally spilled his drink on one of the female guests, after that, both of them were seen going into the guest room, probably to clean up the stain." Ruby immediately asked the staff, "Was the female guest wearing a bright red dress?"After hearing the staff's answer, Ruby could feel tears slowly buil

    He was one of Nick's bodyguards.Avery looked at him and asked, "Do I look like somebody who smokes?" "I just think you look like somebody who could use a smoke," replied the bodyguard.Avery laughed and extended her hand, "If so, pass me one." The bodyguard passed her one of the cigarettes and lit it up for her, "Nick called me just now and told me to go back." "Alright, you can go now! I'll go back on my own," replied Avery as she tried to mimic the bodyguard and took a hit from the lit cigarette,The moment she inhaled the smoke, she started to cough vigorously.The bodyguard laughed and said, "Nobody takes such a large hit on their first try." Avery was upset that he was laughing at her, "I would like to see how good your first time with a scalpel would be." "Haha! Are you mad? Things between you and Elliot Foster seemed to be improving at a lightning pace," said the bodyguard as he noticed the hickey on her neck."No. After finishing, he just acted as if nothing had

    If Gary was actually fast asleep from drinking too much, there was no way that the nanny could not incite any reaction from him.The nanny was worried because no matter how hard she tried, Gary seemed to be comatose and would not react to her. The only reassuring fact would be that Gary was still breathing.That was the reason the nanny did not immediately call for a doctor and instead came over to alert Ruby."Miss, where is Young Mister at?" asked the nanny, who could not seem to be able to find Christopher."He probably had too much to drink as well. I saw him down quite a lot of drinks in quick succession," explained Ruby."He probably got a little too happy seeing all his friends here. Miss, you don't have to be too worried, his breathing is still normal, I suspect that he has perhaps fallen into a deep slumber," said the nanny."Did you call for the doctor?" asked Ruby."No, should I?" "Yes, get one right now. Nothing can happen to father," said Ruby.Ruby was worried t

    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
