Hayden saw the expression on Avery's face change ever so slightly and heard a tiny sigh escape from her lips.

Tears welled up in Hayden's eyes.

He felt the need to protect his mom. His once strong and protective mother now needed his help.

In the blink of an eye, a month has passed.

In Aryadelle, summer vacation was here. Tammy wanted Jun to take Layla and Robert to come to play at their house.

If she weren't pregnant, Tammy would have invited the two kids herself.

Elliot wanted to go to Tammy's house with the two kids but was rejected by Tammy.

Jun took both of the kids, and asked Layla, "Why don't you want to bring your father?"

Layla said, "I don't want him following me. I am not a child anymore."

"Layla, you should be grateful. When I was small, if my dad could accompany me, I would have been very happy."

"I could give you my dad." Layla offered, "I really hope that he goes to work every day, and does not ask me about my homework. He's very annoying when he asks me if I a

    "Tammy, I heard that it was Avery who turned off her phone so Elliot couldn't contact her. It wasn't Elliot's fault." Jun corrected her."How did you know that they didn't have an agreement of the sort when they divorced? If there wasn't such an agreement, how could Avery not contact her kids? Don't believe everything Elliot says. I hate it when men victimize themselves and put the blame on women. It's entirely Elliot's fault, so don't make it sound like it's Avery who's the cold-blooded one."Tammy lost control of her emotions when she talked about Elliot and Avery."Tammy, don't get emotional. I don't want to quarrel with you. I just think that you don't need to speak ill of Elliot in front of Layla. She isn't very fond of Elliot.""He brought everything on himself. Why are you speaking in his defense? Do you actually think that he's innocent? Are you trying to become like him and wish to have an affair with other women?""Tammy!"Jun exclaimed. "What were you thinking? I just fe

    "Your mother doesn't seem to be using her cell phone now. I'll call your Uncle Mike and he will tell your mother." Wesley picked up the cell phone and spoke to the two children.Disappointment flashed in Layla's eyes.Wesley dialed Mike's number and told him about Tammy's childbirth."Oh, I'll tell her tomorrow. She's probably asleep by now," Mike said."Well. Layla and Robert are by my side. Do you want to talk to Layla?""Yes. Let's video call her!" Mike said and hung up the phone.Within five seconds, Mike called.Wesley picked up the video call and handed the phone to Layla.Layla looked at Mike's smiling face in the video and pouted."Where's my mom?" Layla asked, frowning."Your mother is sleeping.""I don't believe you! My mother must be missing! Otherwise, why would she not contact me? Go to my mother's room; I want to see if my mother is really sleeping." Layla made this request to Mike.Mike hesitated for two seconds, then took the mobile phone and walked towards

    Tammy had already thought of a name for her child. She would be called Tiffany. The doctor picked up her child, wiped her clean, and then showed her to Tammy. When Tammy saw her daughter, she couldn't help shedding sad tears. Why was her daughter so ugly? How could her daughter be so ugly? She had made an appointment with Avery for the babies to get married when they grew up, but she was afraid the plan would not succeed. Robert was so handsome; how could he possibly like her ugly daughter? Tammy's anesthesia hadn't subsided when she came out of the operating room, so she didn't feel any pain. She complained to her mother with a sad face: "Mom, have you seen Tiffany? She is so ugly!" Her mother looked calm: "You were even uglier when you were born. I had a big fight with your dad at the time. I said he had the wrong child, and he said he didn't. We were almost divorced at the time." Tammy was speechless. "Don't worry, our little Tiffany can't be ugly

    On the other end of the phone, Avery's breathing suddenly became heavy. Elliot heard Tammy's words and almost immediately noticed that she was talking to Avery on the phone. Without waiting for the others to react, he strode to the side of the hospital bed and grabbed Tammy's cell phone. "Avery, do you think it's funny to turn off your phone and prevent anyone from contacting you? What are you doing?!" He took the mobile phone and strode towards the balcony. Layla heard him calling her mother's name and ran after him. After Elliot entered the balcony, he closed the balcony door. Layla was kept out. Avery listened to Elliot's voice, and her chest suddenly heaved violently. "I didn't play any tricks." She calmed down, "If you really wanted to contact me, you could have contacted me, no matter what. Besides, we are divorced; there is no need for contact." Elliot snorted coldly. "You are right. In the future, you will be you, and I will be me. I can't give you La

    "Ben, since she doesn't have time to fall in love with you, you should stay in Aryadelle!" Chad said, "I never believed in long-distance love." "Then you're going to end your and Mike's relationship by going to Bridgedale?" Chad responded, "I've already thought about it. It would be better if I could see Avery." "You want to help Elliot find Avery? Chad, there's no need." Ben said, "It's hard for outsiders like us to get involved in their relationship." "I don't want to intervene. There are some things I really want to say." "Okay, whatever." A day later, Chad's flight landed at the capital airport of Bridgedale. Mike was picking him up. Mike knew in advance that Chad was coming, so he called Eric and asked him to temporarily help take care of Avery for a few days. After Eric answered the call, he came as fast as possible. Of course, Avery didn't want to trouble Eric, but Eric refused to leave and was very stubborn. "I've been writing a new song recentl

    "What's the matter?" Mike took two tissues and handed them to him, "Elliot knows about this." Chad took the tissue, wiped the corner of his mouth hastily, and said in shock, "Are you sure my boss knows about this? He never mentioned it!" "When Avery told him about this, Ruby had an accident, and he had to go to Ylore." Mike teased, "How would he tell anyone? If he did, no one would take his side." Chad felt that what Mike said was wrong. Elliot never asked other people to speak for his defense. Mike didn't look like he was lying, though. "Mike, are you sure what you said is true?" Chad still didn't believe it, so he wanted to confirm. "Avery told me that personally, so unless she lied to me, I guess it's pretty much true." "Oh… What was my boss doing?" Chad frowned and said naively, "I really don't understand what he was thinking at the time..." "It is obvious that your boss has no love for Avery but is only using her as a pawn." Mike took a sip of coffee, "H

    "He didn't tell anyone about this, which shows that he knows it's his fault. If you ask him, he will only think that you are ignorant." "Indeed... I guess he didn't tell Ben. If he told Ben, Ben would definitely tell me. After all, I do have a better relationship with Ben." "Then you must think carefully before deciding whether to ask him." Mike glanced at the time and said, "Since you are here, let's have fun for a few more days!" "Don't you need to take care of Avery?" "I told Eric to come here. I told Avery that you were coming over, and she asked me to see you. Don't worry about her. She is feeling very vulnerable now. As capable as she was in the past, she feels inferior now. After all, she cannot see anything. She needs someone to help her to even go to the bathroom..." "Don't talk about it. I feel uncomfortable." Chad took off his glasses and rubbed his eyes. Late at night, a nurse helped Avery take a bath, took care of her, and came out of the room after she f

    The host was shocked: "A man? Eric, would it be convenient to ask about your relationship with this man?" Eric said, "If I have to say that I have anything to do with him, we are actually enemies." The host did not expect him to answer that. Tonight's video interview was presented live. Now in the live stream, there were millions of people online at the same time. His answer could be heard by everyone. Eric said, "There are men who are not just blinded physically, but there are also men who are blind in their hearts and blind in what they do. That's what my song is about." The host listened to his sarcastic words in a serious tone and asked with a smile, "Eric, are you fighting for a woman with someone else? The lyrics of this song seem to contain elements of love." "No. I wrote this song, and it's just an expression of my emotions." Eric said calmly, "This song is written for scumbags." At the end of the live broadcast, Mike, sitting opposite him, said lazil

    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
