"H-How could that be? If she were to find such a boyfriend, she should just get back together with you!" Mrs. Cooper accidentally let slip what was on her mind. "Avery is such a great person. Even if he is rich, his looks should match hers. Layla really likes beautiful things, so how will she accept such a stepfather?"

"What if she doesn't marry?"

"Then, it will be even more unbelievable. If she is only in for the relationship, then why not find someone more handsome?" Mrs. Cooper said. "Master Elliot, there must be something behind this! You can't just let Avery fall into this trap!"

Elliot was speechless. He was embarrassed to say that he was kicked out of Avery's place this morning.

He did want to help her, but she was not buying it.

At noon, Tammy returned Avery's beloved pink car back to her.

"Avery, when are you going to let us meet your boyfriend?" Tammy came over specifically to ask her this. "Won't your boyfriend miss you while you are in Aryadelle? I know that he is b

    "Where is it?" Tammy looked at Avery's phone, not daring to blink. "It's just all photos of Hayden! By the way, Hayden is all grown up. He looks so tall and handsome.""Yes. He is constantly growing. He is almost as tall as me," Avery said. "He is starting to look a lot like his father.""Haha, I can see. But I think Hayden is even more handsome than Elliot. He has the best of Elliot and you.""Hayden is quite handsome, but he is a lone wolf. He doesn't mix with his classmates. I'm afraid that he might not have friends when he grows up. Look at Elliot, although he doesn't have a great character, he has friends who are quite close to him," Avery voiced her concerns."It's nothing great to have many friends. When Hayden is successful and famous, many would want to be his friend. This is nothing. I thought that you were worried about him finding a wife in the future!""It's too early to worry about this." Avery picked up the jug of water and poured herself some water. "Why didn't you

    Lilith rushed to the scene of the photoshoot after lunch.After being styled and made up, Lilith rested while she waited in the simple dressing room. After a while, Lilith heard someone on a phone outside."Coco is not feeling well? How could she fall ill so suddenly? Can she still make it for the shoot? The shoot won't take long. At most two hours. Lilith got here an hour ago, and she has been waiting for all this time.""No, I'm not saying that Coco is unprofessional, but if she's unwell, of course, I won't force her to work, but this also puts us in a difficult position! Since we have already booked the time, we can't change it that easily. We have many staff members waiting here.""Lilith… Lilith came from abroad. She has won awards and is quite famous abroad! Because we plan to market our lingerie abroad, we hired her. We did not hire her because we wanted to please someone. We would never higher an unknown model to work alongside Coco."…Lilith heard the staff member's pho

    "I hate this kind of social-climbing woman most!" Coco spat in contempt.Lilith flushed. "You can put me down for not being experienced, but you can't call me a social climber! I did not depend on my boyfriend.""Boyfriend? Are you sure you are not referring to your sugar daddy?" Coco asked sarcastically. "If he is a manager in Sterling Group, he has to be quite old now, right? Probably with a family? Just admit that you are a mistress and quit talking like you are someone's official girlfriend!"Lilith felt that she could not see eye to eye with her and there was no point in arguing with her. Apart from that, they were not familiar with one another, and Lilith did not deem it necessary to fight with Coco since they might not see each other again once she was done with this job.She strode off and arrived at the spot where the filming would take place. Shortly after, Coco finished changing and the photoshoot began.Despite her contempt toward Lilith, Coco did not pick on her again

    "Lilith White! You are being ridiculous! My sugar daddy? You tell me who my sugar daddy is!" Coco had never been questioned in such a manner before and was unable to think of a way to argue."How would I know who your sugar daddy is? I wouldn't have asked you if you hadn't made such rash accusations. I'm not interested in you at all." Lilith picked up her glass and took a sip of water."Haha! I'm not interested in you either. I'm just curious about that so-called boyfriend of yours because I think you are bluffing in a pathetic attempt to raise your status! What kind of a manager would be interested in you?!" Coco rolled her eyes. "Do you know Elliot Foster? I dined with him before and men like that wouldn't even spare ordinary girls a second glance!""Isn't it normal that Elliot isn't interested in you? He loves Avery, so don't waste your time!" Lilith retorted."Hahaha! Since when have I said anything about liking Elliot? You probably think that he is one of a kind, don't you? I

    Silence fell over the room.Lilith had not expected Ben to tell everyone about Elliot.The others were not aware of her identity and thought that she was fully dependent on her boyfriend's connections for work. If they found out that she was Elliot's sister, would they think that she was relying on Elliot's status even when that was not the truth? She had never relied on Ben or Elliot.Lilith stormed out of the room in a rage.Ben had wanted to teach Coco a lesson, but he immediately went after Lilith when she left."Lilith is Elliot's sister?" Coco turned to look at the person in charge of the photoshoot.The person in charge scowled in surprise. "I don't know! I only know that she is dating Mr. Schaffer, but I've never heard that Elliot Foster has a sister, nor did Lilith's assistant mention anything to us!""Maybe Schaffer was lying?" Coco suggested weakly, knowing that Ben had no reason to lie to them."Mr. Schaffer is Elliot Foster's right-hand man, so he has no reason to

    Lilith blushed. "I thought they weren't back yet?""They will be back the day after tomorrow. I'm just informing you ahead of time so that you won't schedule work on that day.""Oh..." Lilith took her phone out to inform her manager, only to find numerous messages from Howie.[You are Elliot Foster's sister?! You sure hid it well! So you are just modeling for fun?}[Lilith, I didn't say anything mean to you before, right? If I did, I didn't mean to. I just expected a lot from you because I see greatness in you.][Coco called me in tears, saying that she wants to apologize to you. Call me when you see this… Or just message me… Or just reply tomorrow.]Lilith's finger slid across the screen as she typed her reply.[I have something to do the day after tomorrow and I need a day off.]Howie replied right away.[Sure! Do you need a day off tomorrow as well? If not, come over to the office tomorrow. Let's talk.][Alright.]Elliot had been sleeping the entire day and woke up at daw

    Chad agreed with Elliot's idea, but judging from the look on his face, Chad could not help but feel like Elliot would mess it up. Elliot looked as though he was about to go and beat Avery or Billy up and whichever he ended up doing would still enrage Avery."Mr. Foster, eat something." Chad scooped a spoonful of food and placed it on his plate. "Why didn't you call Ben along?"Elliot knew that Chad did not have a high tolerance for alcohol, and his head was already beginning to spin after drinking merely one glass."He is with Lilith.""Oh... How are things moving along between them?" Chad asked. "The last time I talked to him, he was still saying how he had been rendered completely helpless!""Lilith has given up her job in Bridgedale and has come back to Aryadelle to further her career, so I don't think their relationship would change.""I guess! Lilith has always been quite clear with what she wants. I'm happy for Ben." Chad noticed the dark look on Elliot's face and his smile

    "Oh... Is he going to visit Uncle Mike during his holidays?" Layla beamed because she had been planning on taking Robert to Bridgedale to visit Hayden. If Chad was traveling to Bridgedale, they could all travel together."I didn't ask him." Elliot got up and took her hand. "Did you have fun at the water park?""Robert had more fun. I think it's a bit childish." Layla was wrapped in a towel, and her hair still dripping wet. "Daddy, I will go shower now. Go check on Uncle Chad!""Sure!" Elliot watched as Layla walked back into her room, before approaching Robert, who was soaking wet.Robert looked up at Elliot with his doe-like eyes and pouted. "Daddy stinks."It was the first time Elliot had drank so much at home since Robert was born."You can sleep with Mrs. Cooper tonight, then. Go shower!" Elliot said and Mrs. Cooper carried Robert into the bathroom.Elliot returned to the dining room to find Chad rubbing his face."Have you sobered up?" Elliot teased. "Your alcohol toleranc

    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
