Chapter 1450

Author: Simple Silence
"I've been resting the entire day. Let me stay here for a while!" The bodyguard strolled toward the bed and looked Elliot up and down. "So he just lays here every day?"

"Yeah."

"That's what they call vegetables, huh?" The bodyguard said gloomily. "Will he ever wake up?"

"If his injuries are as severe as you are making them sound, he would still be in ICU and not here." Avery took a sip of the soup. "He should be waking up soon."

"Oh. Okay." The bodyguard went to sit next to her. "Boss, my admiration for you just grows deeper and deeper. I didn't think that you would have the guts to chase Ruby Gould out of her own territory. The courage and strength in you! As expected of Elliot Foster's woman."

Avery blushed at the compliment and said, "The only reason she is not fighting me is because she is pregnant."

"Oh. I see!"

"When you come over tonight, bring me my suitcase."

"Sure. I can bring it over now. I'm free, anyways." The bodyguard got up and strode out.

    "Miss Tate, didn't you have a question to ask him? Go on!" The bodyguard noticed Avery being stunned. He immediately reminded her.Avery came to her senses."Don't disturb him. He just woke up. His mind isn't clear yet." Avery pushed the bodyguard outside. "Wait outside. Don't enter without my permission."After pushing the bodyguard out, she quickly returned to the side of the bed.Elliot had already shut his eyes!Avery rubbed her eyes, doubting herself, thinking she was hallucinating previously. However, the bodyguard noticed it too!She was not hallucinating. Elliot did indeed come around for a short time a moment ago. Just when she was hesitating whether to call him or not, he opened his eyes once more."Elliot!" Avery quickly said, "Elliot!"Elliot's eyes instantly focused and looked at her. "It's me, Avery!" Avery choked up and said, "Gary is dead. When you're discharged from the hospital, let's return to Aryadelle!"Elliot spent more than double the usual time unders

    The nanny held onto Ruby and softly said, "Miss Ruby, don't get angry. You're pregnant!"Ruby took a deep breath and tried hard to collect her emotions. Her father was dead. Elliot no longer hid his lack of feelings for her. The nanny helped Ruby out of the ward."Miss Ruby, why do you have to do this to yourself?" The nanny said heartbrokenly, "If I could say something, don't punish Paul already. At least his heart is always thinking of you. Look at Elliot. He doesn't even care about you. How infuriating."Ruby choked up. "That's because he doesn't know the child in my stomach is his. If he were to know…his attitude would change. It would not be like this."The nanny saw how stubborn Ruby was being, she could only let her be. At the end, when her heart has been smashed into pieces on the ground, she would know who truly treats her right."Miss Ruby, you are barely three months pregnant. You need to stay calm. Let's return home!" The nanny said, "Elliot won't be able to leave th

    Tammy truly had been trying hard to get pregnant."Please lend me your phone." Jun placed the bag down and borrowed the nanny's phone.The nanny immediately went to take her phone and passed it to Jun. He used the nanny's phone to call Tammy.A few seconds later, the call was picked up."Tammy, you better clear things up! How have I offended you? Why are you breaking up with me!" Jun initially wanted to talk calmly with her, but when the call connected, he lost his temper."Whose phone are you using to call me?""The nanny's phone! You're so childish! Do you still think that you're still a young girl like Lilith? Blocking and ghosting people whenever you want? You count yourself. How many times have you blocked my number after we have been together?! Tammy heard his screams. She wanted to laugh. "I'll block you if I want to. You can't do anything about it. Go and have children with another woman. Why are you calling me? Don't you find me a pain in the ass?"Jun was silent for

    This was the longest sentence Elliot said after he woke up.Avery looked into his eyes. She was stunned for two seconds before explaining, "I used to believe you, but Ruby told me the child in her belongs to you, which is why I'm asking you again.""Did she really say so?""Hmm. Initially, she did not directly tell me. She told Layla." Avery rubbed the towel in the basin against each other before wringing it dry again and wiping Elliot down. "Layla was so furious she cried. She cared a lot about you." Elliot was instantly agitated."Elliot, don't get angry first. I have already explained it to Layla." Avery's palms cupped Elliot's face and gently touched it. "Back then, Ruby lied to me. She said that you have decided to cut ties with me which is why you didn't answer my phone calls. I suspected that there was a problem, so I called Nick to confirm. Sure enough, I found out that she was lying.""Since you know she was lying, why are you still asking me about the matter of the chi

    "Elliot, I feel relieved that you are willing to tell me all this." Avery's brows relaxed. She made Elliot choose according to the worst-possible scenario. "If the child in Ruby's is yours, what are you going to do?""I didn't want the child in her. I can't bear the responsibility for her and the child." Elliot knew clearly what he wanted."This answer is more than enough. This is a painful lesson. In the future, no matter what happens, I will never hide things from you anymore. I will tell you at the first notice." Avery could not hide the guilt she felt in her tone. "Elliot, I love you. I know that you love me too. I always knew."Elliot responded. "I was wrong too.""You're not wrong. It was me." Avery looked at him and formally acknowledged her mistake. "If I were you, I might do something even more impulsive than you."Elliot did not want to continue such a heavy topic."Can I get out of bed?" He changed the topic."What are you thinking? You have broken a leg." Avery gentl

    It was a call from Hayden. After he accidentally answered the call, Hayden's voice immediately came through, "Mommy, I heard that Elliot is awake."Elliot heard his son's voice. He was extremely moved. Hayden was concerned for him which was why he called to ask about his situation."Mommy, asked him who he chooses. If he can't part with his new wife, then dump him and quickly return home." Hayden thought that it was Avery on the other end of the line, which was why he said what was on his mind.Elliot's feeling stopped abruptly. Turns out, Hayden was not concerned about him. He was worried about Avery feeling aggrieved.That was good too. Hayden cared for his mother. It was much better than not having any conscience."Mommy, why are you not talking? Did he make you angry again?" Hayden asked in a glum tone.Elliot could not continue the silence. "It's me. Your mother went to shower."Hayden was instantly silent.Elliot said, "I have already answered Avery about your question."

    [Avery: Did he say anything?][Lilith: Uh…he said nothing much. It was quite awkward. I guess he might think I'm a chatterbox!][Avery: He just came around today. He doesn't look that good. If he isn't hurt, he would surely talk to you.][Lilith: Oh, I thought he always did not like to talk much! Are you and him alright?][Avery: Yes, we have reconciled.]Lilith let out a sigh of relief. [That's good! I knew that you two would surely reconcile. You're such a good woman. If Elliot doesn't cherish you, he is an idiot!]Avery did not want to continue this topic, so she changed the subject and asked, [How are you? Did Ben look for you?][Lilith: The other day when I unblocked him, he called me. He said he wanted to see if I had unblocked him yet or not. He's childish. He doesn't seem like a man of his age.][Avery: Being old and dull is boring.]After sending that message, her eyelids were getting heavier. She placed her phone down and lay in bed. Soon after, she fell asleep.A w

    On the other end of the line, a low man's voice came through, "You need her help even for such a trivial family matter? How did you manage to pursue Tammy in the first play?"When Jun heard Elliot's voice, he was so stunned he sweated profusely. "E-Elliot? A-Are you better?""Hmm. Don't bother Avery with such trivial matters. If you can't even coax Tammy properly, how are you going to be a good father in the future?"Jun was speechless from Elliot's lecturing."Elliot, you are right. When are you returning? When you are back, I'll take Tammy over to your house for a meal.""After I get discharged.""When are you getting discharged?""I don't know." Elliot at that moment only just had the right to get out of bed. He has never heard Avery talk about getting discharged.Also, although he could get down from the bed with the help of a walking stick, he could only move around in the ward.A series of footsteps could be heard from the door outside.A moment later, the door was open

    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
