Avery strongly agreed."Although she is suspicious, I don't think she is a bad person.""Indeed." Elliot had seen her three days ago.After these two meetings, although he felt suspicious, he also felt a pitiful aura about her.He wouldn't deliberately divide people into classes. Still, he subconsciously believed that even if Susan was wearing a famous brand, carrying a Hermes bag, and was trying to look like a highborn lady, her words and deeds could not deceive people of who she was."Elliot, let's not think about it so much for now. After you meet her a few more times, maybe you will know why she looks like this." Avery did think Susan was a little strange, but she was a kind person. No matter what other people did, she should not harm them."I'm afraid that she might be getting used." Elliot expressed his concerns, "If someone knows that she is my biological mother, that someone would definitely want to use her to create trouble for me."Avery nodded: "Tell me your mom's num

Avery smiled and said, "Yes."Elliot immediately understood why she had to come here to eat noodles.She was thinking about her mother.After Susan returned to the hotel, she took the room card and swiped the door open.Entering the room, she was shocked when she saw Wanda!"You, why are you here?!" A layer of cold sweat broke out from Susan's back.Wanda showed a sly smile: "Is the marriage still going well? Seeing that you have been out for so long, did you have a good meal with your son?""I...I didn't recognize him... He probably doesn't want to recognize me." Susan put her bag on the table, walked to the sofa, and sat down, "Madam Tate, maybe he sees that I'm not rich, so he doesn't want to recognize me!""Susan, he agreed to eat with you, which shows that he wants to recognize you. Otherwise, he wouldn't bring Avery to accompany you to dinner." Wanda spoke her thoughts aloud, "He has so much money; don't you want to get some? Do you want to start over and go back to t

Time flew, and half a month passed.Soon, it would be New Year's Eve.Avery proposed that the family take a set of family photos with the New Year's theme to bring the relationship between Hayden and Elliot closer.After her proposal was made, Layla immediately agreed with joy, and Elliot also agreed.The family's eyes fell on Hayden.Hayden was not interested in family portraits, mainly because he did not want to take pictures with Elliot.Although he could accept living under the same roof as Elliot, he still felt awkward when he saw Elliot.This kind of awkwardness seemed to be something etched into his bones."Brother! Let's go take pictures together!" Layla grabbed Hayden's arm and begged, "Just treat it as a New Year's gift for me!"Hayden couldn't refuse Layla.The family came to the studio. The temperature was relatively low recently, and Avery chose three sets of themes for indoor shooting.After the three sets of family portraits were taken, the photographer turned

This little baby really looked like Layla!However, this baby was the child of Elliot and Ruby!'Bang'!When Elliot heard the movement, he immediately looked toward the source of the sound.The movement came from Hayden.He strode towards Hayden.Hayden handed him his mobile phone immediately after he came over.He took the phone but looked in confusion at Hayden's cold and hostile eyes."What's wrong?" He asked Hayden, "I heard something fall to the ground just now. Did you drop your phone?""It's your phone." Hayden replied, "I threw it."Hayden was angry, so he threw the phone on the ground.After throwing it on the ground, he thought his mother might get angry with him, so he picked it up.Elliot glanced at the phone in his hand.Due to the presence of the phone case, the phone was intact.Hayden wouldn't throw his phone on the floor for no reason, so he turned it on and saw a photo.The baby in the photo looked a little familiar.This was a colored ultrasound photo

It was not until Avery asked that Layla realized that her brother wore a dark expression. "Hayden, why are you upset? If you don't like taking photos, I won't make you do it next time," Layla said while holding onto his arm.Hayden did not want to upset Avery by mentioning Ruby as Elliot had already said that he would block Ruby's contact."The photo shoot is a bit tiring," said he, casually making up an excuse. "Even more boring than shopping."He did not like shopping, but when compared to doing a photo shoot, he preferred shopping. At least shopping meant that he could get some fresh air, whereas the photo shoot required them to remain inside the studio the entire time."You guys didn't have your naps this afternoon, so I suppose it must be a bit tiring. Next time, let's do it when the weather is nice so that we can go outside for the photoshoot. That way, it won't be as boring," Avery promised with a smile. "I thought that your dad upset you somehow! I saw you two talking to

"Let's take our time. It's not New Year's just yet!""Sure. Are you going to the company's New Year's dinner?" Avery asked. "My vice president told me that the employees would like to see you during the dinner since you are one of our biggest shareholders.""I'll go if you want me to, otherwise I will just stay home." Elliot did not like crowds and was not particularly interested in the New Year's dinners for either his or Avery's company."That's pretty much like saying you don't want to go! I'll just take the kids with me, then."He immediately changed his response once he saw her reaction, "Take me too if you are taking the kids to dinner!""Sure. We'll see how it goes in a few days! I haven't even mentioned it to the kids!" Avery rubbed at her stomach and said, "I still prefer summer. The sky won't turn dark this early during summer! It's not just cold during winter, but the days just seem so much shorter, and the days just fly by me so quickly.""Every day of the year flies

"It wasn't me. It's my wife." Elliot gave him Avery's account number. "This is the account, and she forgot the password. There are a lot of photos in it so please check with your technician to see if you can recover the account and the photos in it.""Alright. I am a technician myself so I will have a look right away. If I don't get back to you before midnight, don't wait up.""Thank you.""It's alright. It's our honor that your wife chose to use our platform."Once he hung up, Elliot opened the photo album on his phone to look at the ultrasound Ruby had sent him earlier. He zoomed into the face of the baby, and it indeed resembled Layla in certain ways.He could not help but head into the bathroom to turn the lights on, before looking in the mirror to stare at his reflection.Layla looked like Avery, so why would his child with Ruby look like Layla?After staring into the mirror for a while, he opened his album again to look for Layla's photos.Layla's features had become more

He opened a certain application for financial news to pass the time when suddenly, the look in his eyes darkened at the sight of a familiar name— Wonder Technologies.The news claimed that they had received a tip that suggested that Wonder Technologies would extend its market into Bridgedale soon.There was not much information on the news but if it was true, then Wanda was planning an enormous move. Both Wanda and the ones backing her were ambitious.It was hardly possible for an enterprise to move its operation from Aryadelle to Brigedale unless there was incredibly tempting capital involved.Elliot simply did not understand what prompted Wanda to do so. Did she believe that she would be able to pass the examination for being listed in a foreign country, or had she found someone powerful enough to support her, and she felt like she could ignore Elliot?Elliot did not know if the news was true, but he had to find out. So, he screenshotted the news and sent it to Ben.Ben immedia

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
