Chapter 1418

Author: Simple Silence
"Elliot is no longer the president of the Sterling Group, didn't you know that?" Another reporter said, "Now the boss of the Sterling Group is Adrian. Do you want to embarrass him when you tell him to connect with Elliot?"

"Ah...I saw that Mr. Schaffer was discussing with Elliot, so I thought..." The reporter who asked the first question blushed embarrassedly.

He thought that although the Sterling Group was not Elliot's by name, it was still Elliot's in reality.

Otherwise, why would Ben chat with Elliot at the press conference?

"I would like to ask President Tate to continue to explain the next layout of Tate Industries! Especially regarding the pricing of its products, as well as the upcoming developmental issues. I believe that everyone is very concerned about them." Another reporter put the topic back on track.

Avery took a sip of water, adjusted her composure, and said again: "About our previous products, the pricing will be lowered. After the press conference, everyone will b

    "Okay. I'll call her at night." She suddenly thought of a question, "Were you messaging Elliot at that time?""Yes! I secretly took a picture of you and sent it to him.""What did he say?" There was a sparkle in her eyes."He said you were beautiful.""You're lying to me. He wouldn't talk like that." Avery didn't believe it at all."Then what do you think he would say when he saw your photo?" Ben asked.Avery thought for a while and said, "He probably won't say anything about my photos.""Hahahaha! You still know him. Even if he didn't say anything.""If it was before, I might be able to guess what he was thinking, but now, I can't guess it anymore." Although she couldn't guess, she didn't care much.As long as he comes back to her side, that would be enough.The two came out of the hotel, got into the same car, and went to Tate Industries together.In Ylore, Elliot brought Ruby to the banquet hosted by Edward.Today is the day Edward's grandson was born. Ruby entered the b

    In Aryadelle, after Avery had dinner, she took Robert for a walk in the community.She was supposed to take Layla out for a walk, but Layla needed to go for extra classes.After the summer vacation, an exam was arranged in the school, so Layla's ranking dropped.Without waiting for Avery to talk to Layla, Layla took the initiative to ask for tutoring.She used to worry that her child would ignore learning, but she didn't expect her worries to be completely unnecessary."Boss, when you were in Ylore, you said to give me a bonus after we return." The bodyguard followed Avery and strolled, "I didn't plan to say it because your company was about to go bankrupt before? However, you have now invested in the Sterling Group..."Avery laughed, "I've been too busy these days, I forgot. Even if I'm going to go bankrupt, the bonus that should be given to you is still there."With that, she took out her mobile phone and directly transferred a large sum of money to the bodyguard.The bodygua

    "I've been working out recently, but the trainer that Hayden got me is so strict! First, I must follow the meal plan she set for me. Then, she stares at me every day when I exercise to ensure I'm not slacking off. Do you know why she is so strict with me?" Lilith smiled bitterly and explained, "Because Hayden promised to give her a tenfold raise if I become famous."Avery replied, "Well, that's really a good way to compel her to take care of you.""Yeah. I didn't know Hayden had such a brilliant mind at such a young age.""Maybe he was born with it!"After the call, Avery went to find her bodyguard and Robert.She came to the fountain and saw Robert standing next to a pink kid's bicycle.The little guy grabbed the bicycle's handle with both hands, pouted, and stared at the bodyguard.Beside him stood a little girl screaming nervously at him.Yet, Robert was not afraid at all.The bodyguard then coaxed Robert, "Oh, my naughty little boy, this belongs to the little girl!

    "Where are you? What are you doing? Are you free to video call now?" asked Avery.Elliot replied in a deep voice, "I'm taking a shower."She froze, then said, "Let's video call!"Avery immediately hung up the phone before Elliot could say anything and video-called him.And Elliot answered it.She was stunned when she saw him naked and standing in his bathroom.She instantly blushed and went blank, as she forgot what to say.She could not let the children see him like that, so she rushed to her bedroom with her phone.Her face turned even redder when she got into her bedroom.Avery used to be familiar with Elliot. However, she felt strange when she looked at him through her screen again."I brought Robert out for a walk just now." She paused to adjust her emotions and asked, "Why did you video call Mrs. Cooper first instead of me?"She could not help but be mad at him for no reason, although it was just a small matter."I just wanted to see Robert, and I used to call Mrs. Co

    Avery was not asking but giving an order.She hung up the video call shortly after that.Elliot put the phone down, walked into the shower, and turned on the shower tap. Then, warm water slid along his hair and down his body.He was disturbed because she said she was coming to rescue him, just like how Jed's girlfriend wanted to take revenge for Jed.She did not hesitate even though she knew her effort might kill her.Elliot knew that if Jed had been alive, Jed would not have let his girlfriend risk her life to avenge his death.Elliot still remembered how Jed's girlfriend looked at him when he watched her get trampled on the ground by the bodyguard after she had attempted to assassinate Gary.Her eyes were very bright. Yet, there was no anger but only relief.Elliot decided to save her at that instance because the stubbornness in her eyes reminded him of Avery.He thought if he died in Ylore, Avery might be like Jed's girlfriend, seeking revenge on Gary for his death.Howeve

    Ruby could not help but recall the last time she saw Elliot last night.She remembered telling Elliot that they would go to the hospital together to pick Gary up last night, but he did not agree.She did not know he was implicitly rejecting her suggestion.Moreover, he hardly ever looked at any part of her body, but he stared at her belly last night.He was behaving strangely, yet she did not notice the abnormality in time.Ruby supposed that Elliot might have left at night. Otherwise, his bed would not be so neat.All of a sudden, she felt like all her strength had been drawn away and she was lost.'How could you leave like that? At least say goodbye to me before you go!' she thought as her tears continuously fell.She did not know how she got downstairs.The nanny walked up to help Ruby because it seemed to her that Ruby had lost her soul."Ma'am, why are you crying? Isn't he in the room?" The nanny helped her to sit on the sofa, "I'll go up and have a look.""He's gone,"

    "Ruby, don't worry, Midas Enterprises will still be yours when your father dies. We won't hurt or bully you. I kidnapped Elliot with your Uncle Ted for your good. Your dad is being hostile to Elliot now, and he will never delegate authority to Elliot again. Maybe one day he'll kill Elliot too. If you want to live happily ever after with Elliot, your father must die.""No… I can't… I can't hurt my dad… He treats me well..." Ruby cried out aloud."Your dad treats you well? Are you kidding me? Your dad has never thought of passing down the inheritance to you." Edward smiled contemptuously, "Don't think it's unbelievable that I let you kill your dad. You Dad has a brother, and you may have never heard of him. That's because your father had killed his brother, and only then did he get the Goulds' property from your grandfather and set up the Midas Enterprises."Ruby's face turned pale because she could not believe what she had heard."If you don't kill your dad, your dad may give Paul s

    In the hospital, Gary lay on the bed connected to an IV. He had completed his transfusion that morning, and the doctors told him that he would have to go for a body-chek. If everything came back normal, then he could return home, and further treatment would be conducted there. After calling Ruby, Paul walked into the smoking room.Gary glanced at him. "Why isn't Ruby here yet?""Ruby said that she is waiting for the nanny to finish cooking the soup. She said that she will bring you some soup later." Paul sat down by the bed. "Maybe she is trying to get Elliot to come over.""Hmph! She texted me all that last night." Gary narrowed his eyes. "That's why I'm asking why they aren't here yet.""I see. Then maybe she isn't waiting for the soup, but she is trying to convince Elliot to come," said Paul.Gary snorted. "I'm not going to let him off easy whether he comes here or not. I trusted him, and I treated him better than I treated you. I trusted him with my whole heart, and he be

    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
