In fact, operation failure was risky whether an artificial or a natural cornea was used.

The risk of failure using artificial ones was more significant than in human corneas because they have only been developed in the past two years. The price was also higher.

The doctor suggested she use human corneas, but she refused.

"Avery, listen to the doctor. The doctor recommended the natural one." Mike advised her, "Let's put other things aside first; the most important thing is for your eyes to heal."

Avery replied calmly: "I could try the artificial cornea first! What if it is a success?"

Seeing Avery's insistence, the doctor said, "That's also possible. If the operation using an artificial cornea fails, we can still transplant a human cornea."

"That's right," Avery said.

"Have a good rest today. We will perform surgery on you tomorrow."

"Okay." Avery's heart beat uncontrollably.

The two months of blindness had forced her to endure the hardships of being unable to

Wow, Elliott and Avery never get a say so in the kids life. Mike, and Eric might as well be the their parents. They say Elliott runs Avery’s life. No they run Avery’s life. Then tell her what the kids are doing. They tell her to stay away from Elliott. They even turn the kids against Elliott.

Elliott needs to know. He is the only one that doesn’t know now. Well I don’t think Tammy does either. Elliott would fix it if he knows. She keeps saying he doesn’t love her. That is a lie. He divorced her because he thought it was what she wanted. Wanted the kids so she wouldn’t divorce him.

    "Why is he suddenly interested in mechanical engineering?" Avery wondered, "He didn't tell me." "No one knows what your son is thinking. If he doesn't commit any crimes, just let him do whatever he wants." Mike didn't want to control Hayden. "Mike, go and see that professor." Avery was not at ease. "I want to know why Hayden chose to be this professor's student. I want to see how they talk in private." "Let's talk after you have the surgery!" Mike said, "If your surgery is successful, I'll make an appointment with that professor." Avery nodded. After she took a nap, Mike came out of the ward. Lilith and Ben stood outside the ward. He wondered when they would arrive. "Has Avery rested enough?" Lilith asked. "Yes." Mike looked at Ben, "She doesn't want to see you." "I guessed that." Ben had just found Avery's attending doctor and heard about Avery's choice to use an artificial cornea. Although he could understand Avery's choice, he still felt a little regret

    " I must at least let Hayden recover his cost and help Hayden make some money before I can leave." Lilith said his plan, "I won't leave here for at least two more years." The expression on Ben's face suddenly became solemn. "Ben, I know you are getting old, and your parents want a grandson quickly. So I don't want you to waste time waiting for me." Lilith explained the matter to him. Ben sighed and said, "My parents started looking forward to having grandchildren when I was in my twenties. After so many years, they have long given up hope.""Oh. I'm being serious with you. If you meet a woman you like, just go ahead." "I'll wait for you for two years." Ben interrupted her, "Lilith, I'm very grateful you confessed to me today about your plans. I'm very sober, don't worry. It's not without reason that I've been single for so many years. I'm very picky." His words amused Lilith. "It's pointless to say this now. The plans don't keep up with the changes." Lilith adjusted

    In the cafe outside the hospital, it was ten o'clock in the morning, and there was no one in the cafe. After receiving the approval of the coffee shop owner, Mike started smoking by the window. It's not that he was addicted to smoking, but the waiting process was tedious. It was already very late in the country. Ben really wanted to call Elliot for a chat. Even if they didn't talk about Avery, they could talk about something else. He was afraid of disturbing him. After he divorced Avery, he not only had to be busy with his work, but he also had to take care of the emotions of his two children. There was nothing he could help with. After thinking about it for a while, Ben still called Elliot. [The user you dialed is on a call, please try again later.] Who is Elliot talking to on the phone so late at night? Ben put down his phone and lit another cigarette. When Elliot finished talking on the phone, he would call him back. He knew very well that w

    He didn't want to ruin Avery's Alpha Technologies. He seemed to be doing it all the same. He had hired Natalie and acquiesced Natalie to setting such a huge goal. Whether Natalie could accomplish the goal, Avery must have known about it by now. The funny thing is that even if she knew about it, she didn't come to him. Ben redialed his number without thinking. The system prompt that his phone had been turned off sounded. "What are you doing?!" Ben looked at the call that was automatically hung up by the system, "I haven't said a word of what I wanted to say!" If he had known that earlier, he would not have mentioned Natalie. Ben was very tight in his chest, so he came out of the cafe. He walked to the door of the hospital and called Lilith. Avery heard that Lilith had answered Ben's call in the ward and immediately said to Lilith, "Lilith, go accompany him! I just happened to be a little sleepy and was going to sleep." Lilith knew she was lying. Sh

    "How old is she?" "33." "Oh...isn't she older than Avery? She seems like an old woman to me." Lilith was very rude because she resented this woman. "Haha..." Ben laughed. "Why are you laughing? Why were you talking with Elliot about this woman?" "She called Elliot for more than an hour. It's late at night in Aryadelle." Ben asked her, "A woman calls a man late at night to report her work. Do you think she is dedicated to her work, or do you think she has other intentions?" "She wants to hook up with Elliot; it's pretty obvious." Lilith said suddenly, "Although I haven't seen the woman you mentioned, I hope the two of them will get together. Avery will be completely free!" Ben was speechless. In the evening, the professor from the School of Mechanical Engineering brought Hayden to the hospital to visit Avery. After the professor and Avery greeted each other politely, Mike immediately took Hayden out of the ward. When the ward door was closed, Avery said to

    Avery stilled."Well, that might not be the case. She will recover if the surgery is a success. Men are born to be unfaithful and cruel, especially men who are wealthy," the other person said. "It might not be that bad that Avery divorced him! Maybe true happiness awaits her ahead."Avery turned her heels and headed back to the ward."Doctor, can she go home to rest?" Mike asked."Yes, but you will have to be careful. She can't be moving around independently. She probably can't see all that well right now, so you will need to hire a nurse to look after her," the doctor reminded him. "Remember to get in touch with me the moment she shows any signs of discomfort.""Okay.""Also, we placed three stitches inside her eyes so remember to come back in three months to have them removed.""Okay. Anything else we need to pay attention to?""Keep her eyes clean, make sure her mood remains stable, and no crying," the doctor said. "Bear with it for a while and everything will be much easier

    "The ocean here is turquoise. Can you see it? It looks beautiful."Avery struggled to see the world before her.Her eyesight was poorer than when she had just removed the bandage, so she did not respond to Mike's question.She could faintly see blue before her, but she could not see the turquoise Mike was describing.Mike decided to change the subject. "I told Hayden that we are coming here. It is far from his school, so I told him to stay with Lilith on the weekdays, and he can come over on the weekends." "Okay." Avery wanted to rest her eyes. "I think I saw a lounge chair over there.""Yeah, there's one on the balcony. Do you want to lie down for a while?""Yes."Mike helped her to the chair and she closed her eyes, indulging in the new environment.Time flew by, and soon, the summer holidays were coming to an end.It was the first of September and the weather was wonderful. Mike video called Layla in the morning, it would be night in Aryadelle. Layla told him that both

    "Ms. Jennings, you mean to say that she is plotting in the dark?""Haha, whatever she plots to do will not interfere with my plan," Natalie said. "Sooner or later, I will have Alpha Technologies beneath my feet. Starting a branch in Bridgedale is only the beginning of this game!""Of course! With Mr. Foster's support and your ambition, Alpha Technologies will soon be defeated.""Yeah! Mr. Foster appreciates you so much that he has put you in charge of all matters concerning Tate Industries. He trusts you!" another man said in a flattering manner. "Everyone in the office is guessing that he is pursuing you!"Natalie chuckled smugly. "He does place a lot of trust in me, but I'm in no rush with regard to romance. We can wait until I accomplish my goal. I promised him I would." Avery stood in the distance and heard every single word they said.Natalie had come to Bidgedale with her team with the sole intention of destroying Alpha Technologies. On top of that, Elliot had handed the m

    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
