Avery wanted to explain herself to Layla, but she could not find the appropriate excuse.Layla was no longer a three-year-old toddler and lies would not fool her."Layla, I was sick and the doctor told me to stay off my phone. That's why I had to wait until I recovered to call you," she said, answering with a half-truth. "It's not that bad, and I'm much better now. I wanted to go back to Aryadelle to see you and your brother, but your dad won't let me see you.""Boo-hoo! That dirtbag Daddy! If he won't let you see us, we will go to you!" Layla scowled fiercely. "I'm not afraid of him!""Layla, your studies are the most important thing right now. You can come to Bridgedale during your winter break, okay?" said Avery, comforting her. "I will tell Hayden or Uncle Eric to pick you up. Either will work. You need to focus on school right now. Robert is too young, and you can't travel overseas with him. Let's discuss this again during your winter break, okay?"Layla wiped away her tears.

"Mike, Layla, and Robert are still living with him, so I would very much like to avoid conflict with him," said Avery, expressing her concern. "I am willing to accept the fact he wants to destroy my company. You don't have to tell him off because of that.""You are being a coward!" Mike complained. "Don't underestimate Layla! If Elliot corners her, Layla is going to fight back. He won't mistreat the kids. They are his kids, too." Avery sobered at Mike's words. She had always known it, but she simply could not bring herself to take the gamble. She had never imagined Elliot to be so ruthless so as to actually try and destroy her company, and she was concerned that he might lose all senses if he was provoked."Just rest! Don't overthink this. If he mistreats Layla and Robert, I will find a way to take them away. I'm always around, so just relax," Mike consoled her after seeing the hesitation on her face."Mike, thank you for everything you've done so far," Avery said. "It's been quit

"Why did he come here on his own? If you hadn't called me, and I hadn't opened that door in time... I can't even imagine what could have happened." Natalie was terrified.Chad's expression darkened. "He went to Bridgedale to look for Avery, that's why he didn't have anyone with him.""No wonder! So has he found her? I heard that Avery has been missing for months..."Chad had wanted to tell her that Avery was sick, but he refrained from doing so in the end. Everyone in Sterling Group was gossiping about Elliot and Natalie, and though it was merely rumored, Chad felt like Natalie might actually be interested in Elliot. Hence, there was no point in him telling Natalie about Avery."I only heard that he is there to look for Avery, so I'm not sure if that's actually true. He has not mentioned Avery's name to me since they got divorced.""Oh... So do you think he passed out because of Avery?" Natalie guessed. "He seems healthy, so why would he pass out all of a sudden?""Mr. Foster's b

"Mr. Foster, you are finally awake! I will go get the doctor." Natalie had stayed awake the whole night watching over Elliot.The doctor had told her that Elliot had lost consciousness because of his stomach condition. Though it was not critical, he was to pay closer attention to certain details in everyday life."Why are you here?" Elliot asked in a hoarse voice as he looked around the room, taking note that he was in a hospital."Mr. Foster, your stomach acted up, and you passed out in your hotel room," Natalie explained.The memories slowly came back to him. He had drunk half a bottle of ice water, which agitated his stomach. He had thought that the pain would pass in time, but he had passed out in the end."Who called you?" Elliot asked warily."Chad called you and you didn't pick up, so he called me instead and asked me to look for you," said Natalie, continuing her explanation. "He told me where you stay. The hotel manager didn't want to open the door to your room without y

"Eric is probably trying to help Lilith. Anyone with a brain could figure that out. Eric is famous in Bridgedale, and Lilith is just a model who has only started working half a year ago. She might have gathered a reputation for herself, but she hasn't made it yet. If Eric works with her, her fame would rise."Avery nodded."Has Elliot called you?" Mike asked."No," she said, before correcting herself, "He did yesterday morning, but my phone was off at the time.""Do not call him back. I told him off yesterday, and he was so pissed off that he hung up right away. If you contact him, he is bound to be really rude.""Yeah."In the afternoon, Eric arrived in Bridgedale and moved into Avery's house with his luggage right away as he was worried about the condition of her eyes."I am much better now. I called Layla yesterday." Avery served him snacks and said, "I can take care of myself now.""Don't listen to her. Right now, she can only see you but not me," said Mike, who sat a littl

Avery did not argue. There was no point in arguing about this, after all.At five in the evening, Mike called Eric and told him to take Avery to the restaurant that he had booked.After the call, Eric extended his arm to Avery and headed outside with her."Where is the nurse?" he asked. "Are you really okay without the nurse?""She has some family business to handle. Besides, my eyes will only get better from now on, so I paid her a sum of money and told her to go home.""You should be fine if you stay home. Don't go outside on your own, though.""Yeah."The two arrived at the luxurious restaurant Mike had reserved.There were not many guests at the time, and Mike had booked a table by the window.He had wanted to reserve a private room, but they were fully booked for the night."I used to come here with Mike all the time because they cook authentic Aryadelle cuisine here," Avery explained."I heard about this place before, but I've never been here. I don't really like dinin

"Crap! They are feeding each other in public... How bold! Isn't he worried that someone would take photos of them?""I'm really curious about what his girlfriend looks like. She seems… plain from the back.""I will pretend to walk past them and check his girlfriend out." One of the women stood up. "I can't accept that Eric is dating someone unless his girlfriend is really pretty..."With that, the woman walked past Eric and Avery and was stunned when she saw Avery's face."This woman... Why does she look... exactly like Avery Tate?!" the woman thought.Avery did not want Eric to spoon-feed her, but Eric insisted out of concern that she could not see clearly. After being fed a few spoonfuls of food, she asked that he simply place the food onto her plate."Eric, it's almost dinner time now. There will be more and more customers coming in here. You should be more mindful of your image," she said and moved further into the couch to distance herself from him."This is Bridgedale. Not

In the photo, Eric was sitting extremely close to Avery and was spoon-feeding her."Ha! I finally get what she insists on getting a divorce and has been so heartless towards me and the kids," Elliot thought, "So it's because she's dating Eric!""Mr. Foster, don't block Avery now!" Chad had thought that Elliot was blocking Avery's contact by his expression and said, "No matter what, she is still the mother of your children. You will still need to contact one another over matters concerning the kids."The veins on Elliot's forehead popped in rage as he gritted out, "Thank you for reminding me."Chad stared at him in shock. "Since we are divorced, I have no right to interfere with her life any longer. She is free to be with anyone she wants! I don't care! A woman who would fall out of love so easily is not worthy of my love!" Elliot barked as he moved his trembling finger toward the contact list on his phone and blacklisted Avery's number.Chad gaped at Elliot's reaction. He had co

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
