"Did you enter the wrong ward?" Avery asked.It was seven in the morning, and she had just woken up."Nope. I came here specifically to see you." Ruby placed the container on the bedside table. "I heard that you were also in this hospital, so I asked my nanny to prepare some breakfast for you, too." "Why would you do that?" "Because you're the woman Elliot likes. I did this because I wanted to show you that I'm not jealous of you. I don't mind that he still wants this relationship with you. You and I can coexist in peace as long as he doesn't abandon me and continues to recognize me as his wife," said Ruby generously.Avery studied the expression on Ruby's face and realized that she was not acting."I'm can't say the same for myself, though. I've known Elliot for almost ten years, and my relationship with him goes far deeper than mere love. Besides, I can't accept the existence of a third person in my relationship." Avery made her stance clear.Ruby frowned slightly. "But he p

"She told my boss that she was willing to allow my boss to continue her relationship with you, but my boss wouldn't agree to it," said the bodyguard.Elliot's expression froze. "I'll warn her not to disturb you again."He was saying that to Avery."Okay. You should go back and rest!" Avery could see that he was not feeling very well, and it was probably because he had not slept much the previous night.Elliot nodded. "Let me know when you are planning to have your surgery." "Okay."After Elliot and Aaron left, Avery ate a few bites of food and set her utensils down. "Why aren't you eating?" The bodyguard saw that she had not eaten much porridge. "I don't have an appetite." She touched her stomach. "Maybe I'm a little nervous because I'm about to go under the knife.""It's fine." Jed gave her some milk. "You'll be better once the operation is over.""Okay. What other tests are going to be done today?" She took a sip of milk.Jed explained the different tests that he would

"Of course! I'll treat him as my own," Ruby replied without hesitation."If the child finds out about his parents and wants to return to Avery in the future, will you promise to respect their wishes?" asked Jed.Ruby hesitated."Miss Gould, if you restrict your child's freedom, the child will only drift further and further away from you. In fact, the only people we can control are ourselves. Don't you agree?" Jed tried reasoning with her when heard her silence. "Going by what you said, do you think Elliot will also drift further away from me?" Ruby was not too pleased with his logic."We're talking about the child now. I don't want to express my opinion on you and Elliot, because frankly, it's none of my business."Ruby was afraid that he might back out of the procedure, and she immediately said, "If the child finds out about Avery and wants to return to her, it just shows I haven't been a good mother. I promise you that if the child wants to return to Avery or has his own life,

"Get away from him? You make it sound easy." Nick sipped some tea. "Don't even bother entertaining the thought of getting away from him unless he's dead.""You're right, and I gathered you all here today specifically to discuss this." Elliot looked at them. "Gary took all of Mickey and Julian's assets which he'll later hand to all of you. You can all take whatever you want other than Midas Enterprises, which he founded."The three men stared blankly at Elliot. "Are you sure?""Yes. Midas Enterprises is Gary's, and he'll leave it to Ruby." Elliot took a cup of tea and drank it all in one gulp. "You will control this entire place once everything is settled. I, on the other hand, will return to Aryadelle.""Have you really thought it through, Elliot?" Nick patted him on the shoulder. "You might have succeeded in Aryadelle, but Gary's existing wealth in Ylore is on par with yours in Aryadelle. As long as you spend your days with Ruby and make her happy, everything Gary owns will be you

The bodyguard scratched his head too. "Beats me! She's supposed to have a checkup today...""Where's Jed?""I have no idea! He's probably waiting for the results!" The bodyguard would only do whatever Jed told him to do."Have you eaten yet?" Elliot asked.The bodyguard shook his head. "I've been looking after her!""Then you should get something to eat," Elliot said. "I'll take over.""Oh, sure! Have you eaten? Would you like me to get you some too?""I have. Bring some for her.""Okay," the bodyguard said and strode out of the ward.Elliot sat down in the chair beside the hospital bed.He felt as if she was no longer alive when he looked at her pale face while she slept.He could not resist holding her hand, which felt slightly cold.Her fingers moved slightly as soon as he held her hand.She was still alive, and he felt a lot more relieved after confirming that.He retracted his hand and glanced at the bedside table.There were some fruits on the cabinet as well as he

Layla sighed. "Mommy! Let's not talk about homework! I've already finished everything, but I don't know whether it's correct. No one checks my homework when you're not at home.""Didn't I find a tutor for you? I'll call her later and ask her to check it for you.""Oh..." Layla had been enjoying herself so much for the past two months and homework was the last thing on her mind.Avery looked at her daughter's little face and said, "Do you want to see Daddy, Layla?"She had caught a glimpse of Elliot staring at her from the corner of her eye.He must have wanted to see Layla.As soon as Layla heard the word 'Daddy', she looked as shocked as a frightened kitten and frowned immediately, "I don't want to see him! He's a meanie! The worse meanie! You wouldn't leave me if it wasn't for him, and I wouldn't be this unhappy!"Avery did not know how to answer."Mommy, why did you ask me if I wanted to see him? Is he just beside you?" Layla asked suddenly after lambasting Elliot earlier.

Avery took the report, looked at the results, and frowned."We need to change our previous plan.""Yes. I was just about to tell you that," Jed said. "Your condition is deteriorating very quickly. We need to do the operation as soon as possible."Avery glanced at the balcony and put away the report. "We'll talk about it later tonight.""Okay. Have you eaten yet?""No. My bodyguard went to buy some food."Jed took out his mobile phone, "I'll call him and ask him to get some for me too."Avery walked toward the balcony and wanted to hear what Elliot was talking to the child about.She had just reached the door when it was pulled open.Elliot had ended the video call, so he returned Avery's cell phone."What did you tell Layla?" she asked while taking the phone.His handsome cheeks were slightly red. "Ask your daughter! I have to go up now.""Can't you come over later tonight?" she hesitated and asked.His face turned a bit redder again. "That would depend on the situation. I

"Will you be recuperating at home?""Yes. The doctor assured me that it wasn't serious.""Alright then. I'll pick you up tomorrow," Elliot said, then turned to Paul and continued, "I'll have to trouble you tonight then."Paul was silent.Gary looked at Paul after Elliot left."I know you're upset that he stole Ruby from you, but there's nothing you can do about it. Who told you to be less capable than he is?" Gary said coldly. "If you can't accept it, you should devote your energy to learning from him. You can replace him if you can surpass him.""I understand, Father.""Why is Ruby feeling unwell?" Gary asked."She didn't tell me in detail. She just said that she wouldn't be able to come and see you for the next couple of days, but once everything's settled, she'll explain it to you at the soonest opportunity," Paul explained. "I believe she has a plan.""Ruby might be young, but she's a very smart woman." Gary's eyes sparkled even though he was feeling weak. "The Goulds' fut

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
