After she chatted with Tammy, she searched for Chad's chat and sent him a message. [Chad, Mike drank too much tonight. When do you think you'll be able to head home?]

Chad replied within seconds. [I'll be back tomorrow morning. He'll usually just sleep if he's drunk, so don't worry about him.]

[Okay. Happy new year!]

Chad looked at her wishes and wanted to reply the same, but for some reason, he could not bring himself to type it out.

After a while, he replied: [Are you going to get a divorce? I know that it is not good to say this during the new year, but from what I understand of your character, you won't let yourself be wronged.]

[I haven't thought about it yet.]

[Then think about it carefully. And then think some more. If you insist on getting a divorce, you won't be able to get child custody, and your company, well...]

Chad was reminding her, not threatening her.

[I'll think carefully.]

[Whatever happens between you and my boss, just remember that we'll always be friends,

I agree. They should be able to work together now. They came a long way. They break up too fast instead of Resolving the issue. If the work together people who stop taking Advantage of them.

Avery is so frustrating. She is mad at Elliott for keeping a secret, but she is keeping her head pain and loss of vision from him. But because he didn’t tell her what was going on, she is thinking of leaving him. She needs to thing long and hard. Ruby would not be a thing if she didn’t lie last time

    "I do. Or at least I do now. But that doesn't mean you won't change in the future," Avery replied. "Don't think so far ahead. We'll talk after today!"She had a terrible headache and it hurt just to speak.Once they went upstairs, he halted his footsteps all of a sudden."Did you meet Shea tonight?" he said, letting go of her arm. "I didn't see her all day today.""Didn't she call you at night?"She thought Shea had called and told him that she would be speaking tonight."No." He answered firmly. "Where's my phone?"The two went back to the room and looked for his cell phone. Alas, it was nowhere to be found, even after some rigorous searching."I'll give it a call." She picked up her cell phone and dialed his number.There was no ringing in the room, which meant that his cell phone was not in there.The two of them then went downstairs.She kept on calling his phone until they finally found it under the sofa.It probably fell to the ground during his fight with Mike earlie

    Sandra cleared her throat and asked, "Are you hungry? I cooked some oatmeal and added some fruits. Come and try it.""I'll wait for Wesley." Shea and Sandra walked toward the kitchen together."Then have a boiled egg. Wesley told me last night to get up early today and make breakfast. He said I mustn't let you go hungry." Sandra gave her a boiled egg and then carried out some freshly baked goods from the oven. "I cooked some macaroni as well, so feel free to just eat whatever you feel like having. Don't be shy.""I'm not hungry yet. You should take a seat and rest for a while, Aunt Sandra!" Shea said politely."You're so considerate, Shea. I'm not surprised that Wesley likes you so much." Sandra grew even fonder of Shea with every passing glance. "Did your brother say anything when you didn't go home last night?""No. He knows that Wesley and I have a good relationship, so he's not going to say anything." Shea sat down at the table, tapped the boiled egg on the table, and carefull

    The injury did look a little scary at a glance."I applied some ointment last night. It was dark in color, which is why the injury looks a little scary." Avery returned the phone to Elliot. "It's not as painful today as it was yesterday.""It is better to be safe and go to the hospital," Elliot insisted. "It's inconvenient for you to apply the ointment yourself at home.""I don't find it inconvenient." She then offered up another random reason, "My mother said that it's bad luck to start the year with a visit to the hospital."Elliot was speechless and so was the doctor.Avery was a doctor too from what they remembered. It came as a surprise that she would say something so superstitious.A sick person ought to visit the hospital as soon as possible, regardless of the occasion.Nevertheless, Elliot did not question her."Did you bring any medication?" he asked the doctor.The doctor immediately took out the ointment he brought."Could you treat her swelling please," he said.

    In the dining hall, Avery felt a little unaccustomed to eating breakfast alone."Did Adrian go out for some new year's visits too?"Mrs. Scarlet answered, "Shea and Wesley came to pick him up in the morning.""Shea and Wesley were here?""Yeah. The two of them are going to go skiing today, so they asked Adrian to join them." Mrs. Scarlet said pitifully. "Adrian would've been alone otherwise, and it's kinda sad if you think about it.""He can join Hayden and the kids."Mrs. Scarlet: "Do you know where they went to celebrate the new year today?""Where?" Avery asked in surprise."Mike's place." The smile on Mrs. Scarlet's face was unable to hide the sadness in her expression. "Master Elliot doesn't have any relatives, and you don't have much contact with yours either, right?"Mrs. Scarlet's words stunned Avery."Adrian has a brother, but unfortunately his eldest brother is a terrible person." The smile on Mrs. Scarlet's face disappeared completely. "But at least they more aware

    "I'll let you step in if there are any issues with them in the future that we can't avoid." Elliot thought about it all night and finally made up his mind.Being affectionate toward Ruby and her baby would be an injustice to Avery and the three kids.Avery did not make a fuss out of it because her children did not know about it and he still had time to remedy the situation.If the situation escalated beyond control, Hayden and Layla would hate him to death.His greatest fear, however, was not that the child hated him—he feared losing Avery.Elliot had suffered so much that he lost sleep when all Avery did was give him the cold shoulder for one day. He could not even imagine how he could continue to live in the future if she disappeared from his world.His answer gave her a heavy sigh of relief.She would not have gotten angry at him on New Year's Eve if he had done that in the first place, and she would not continue to lose her temper with him if he gave her the same answer a da

    "You're right. But she has her reasons for doing so. Elliot stood out from his peers, showing intelligence and a level of maturity that was far above that of other people, even in kindergarten. He was Madam Rosalie's pride, and Eason was very proud of him too. The atmosphere at home was also much better than before. Do you think he'll be able to accept the truth behind his background? I think not. Madam Rosalie is worried that the peace she strived so hard to get would disappear forever," Mrs. Scarlet explained. "I understand how she feels."Avery understood too.It was cruel to separate Elliot from his child at Ylore, but she did that nonetheless.What right did she have to say that Rosalie was a cold-blooded and ruthless woman?Later that evening, Mrs. Cooper and the three children returned.Hayden and Layla brought Avery a lot of delicious snacks and sweets."Chad brought these special treats from his hometown," Mrs. Cooper said. "He cooked lunch and dinner today, and I must a

    The last thing Avery wanted was to see Ruby, much less watch their child be born into the world and then coming over to search for Elliot.If the child did come looking for them in the future, she might not be able to bring herself to turn the girl away heartlessly.However, she would never let Elliot see the child. That was the extent of her kindness as far as the present scenario was concerned."We're putting a pause on this issue. You'd better do as you said in the future." She put an end to it. "I don't think you'd be as generous as I am now if you were in my shoes, Elliot.""I know that. Avery, thank you." He looked at her gratefully, "I won't let myself be confused again in the future.""Okay. Time to get up. Let's go down together," she planned to keep him company and eat a little more.She had no appetite when she ate alone, but now that she had resolved the conflict with him, she started to feel a little hungry.After he got up, he walked to the bathroom and washed hi

    "Didn't you say you would eat with me?""I'll play with the kids for a while." Avery's heart melted when she looked at her daughter's tearful eyes.Elliot nodded and went to the dining room.After he walked away, Hayden said in a sullen voice, "Why did you lie, Mommy? Elliot was the one who hurt you.""He didn't do it on purpose," Avery explained. "He'll be sad if we tell it to his face.""Let him learn his lesson!" Hayden raised his voice on purpose so Elliot could hear it clearly from the dining room.Layla pursed her lips, clenched her fists, and said in a crying voice, "Daddy is such a careless klutz! You should punch a boo-boo on his head too."Avery sighed. "Your uncle Mike already punched him, and your father now has a boo-boo on his head too."Layla stopped crying immediately. "That's more like it.""You should eat if you're hungry, Mommy!" Hayden said."Sure... Although, how did you know it was your father who did it?" Avery did not remember telling them about her in

    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
