Mike headed over to the dining hall. He picked up the envelope from the floor and looked at the sender's details.

"What is going on? This says that it has been mailed from the trash station."

Hayden walked over to Mike and looked at the information on the envelope. "The person who sent this photo to Mommy does not want her to find out who they are."

"But this could mean that the photos have been sent from Bridgedale. Your Daddy was most likely taken to Bridgedale." Mike's mind was spinning quickly. "Could things have played out like your mother suspected? Could it have been done by the Jennings? But why would they want to take your dad away? And now that he is dead, they don't want to take responsibility for his death. So, they broke the news to your mom via an anonymous letter."

Hayden said, "I don't know. I only know that it's useless that they sent these photos to Mommy. If Elliot was really cremated, why did they not send his ashes over?"

Mike nodded. "Your Mommy will not rest

    Mrs. Kennedy left in utter disappointment and anger.Natalie stood in front of Leah, looking down upon her. She said disappointedly, "Leah, you'll regret it. Your mother and father love you so much. The husband they find for you will surely not be from any ordinary family. You are their daughter. Why would they hurt you? You don't understand their sacrifice—""Natalie, when your parents urged you to get married, not once have I persuaded you to listen to them. You don't like other people interfering in your life, yet you want me to listen to my family and marry a man that I don't like?" Leah retorted.Natalie's lips moved a little before saying, "Although it's cheap talking about money, in this society, you can't do anything without money. If I were you, I would not go against my parents' orders. If you don't have the capability of earning much, then you should find a rich family where you can enjoy—""Natalie, I know I'm bad. I'm not as capable as you. I'm not cut out to earn big

    "What is it?""Shares to the Sterling Group."Leah was speechless."Although it is not much, it is enough for me to be financially independent for the rest of my life." George immediately regretted his actions, and he wondered why he had offered someone he barely knew the shares. Why did he spill his secrets to her?"Why are you not saying anything?"Leah blushed unnaturally, "George, I never thought that bodyguards like you earn so much. The rich friends around me might not be doing as well as you."The Sterling Group's shares were very valuable.Apart from giving George some company shares, Elliot also paid George a considerable sum and that meant that he trusted George. In the future, if George had any trouble, he will surely help him."An ordinary bodyguard's pay is so-so. My pay is high because Mr. Foster is rich. Also, he is a very sentimental person. He pays attention to who is loyal or disloyal to him. If someone treats him nicely, he will repay them tenfold." George wa

    While Leah was thinking about her next course of action Natalie was at her place. Natalie brought Mrs. Kennedy to her place to get her mother to talk to her.Mrs. Jennings held her younger sister's hand and said, "Don't be too sad. Natalie has never once listened to us when it came to marriage, too.""How could you compare them? Natalie is so great! If Leah is as great as Natalie, we would not be so worried about her. Even if she hadn't told us that she wanted to remain single for the rest of her life, we would not have cared!" Mrs. Kennedy said aggrievedly. "There seems to be something going on between her and the Fosters' bodyguard. You don't know how rough he was! He knew who I was, yet he still shoved me to the ground in public. If Leah dares marry him, I… I won't want to live anymore!""Aunt Betty, I'm not clear about the details of her relationship with the bodyguard. It might not be as serious as we think." Natalie saw how sad her aunt was, so she consoled her, "I don't thi

    "What solution do you have?" Natalie raised her eyebrow. She was confused. "What is it, Mom? Are you hiding something from me?"Natalie was stunned because her mother was just an ordinary woman.After marrying her father, she had always been a housewife. She had never gone to work a single day in her life.Mrs. Jennings looked into the distance for a few seconds before nodding. "Natalie, I have indeed been hiding something from you. I only didn't tell you because you don't need to know about this, but if you're really in danger…"Natalie stopped her pacing and waited for her mother to finish her sentence."Natalie, have you heard of Dean Jennings before?" Mrs. Jennings was afraid that her daughter would not know who the man was, and she pushed on without waiting for a reply. "The owner of MediLove Pharmaceuticals."Natalie nodded and asked, "You know him? What is your relationship with him? Or… do I have a relationship with him?""Natalie, you're so smart. You immediately guesse

    "She no longer has a fever, why is she still not awake yet?" Mike had been by her watching over her for more than an hour. He turned to the doctor, waiting for an answer.The doctor walked over to the side of the bed and lifted Avery's eyelids."Miss Tate is most probably… sleeping."Mike let out a sigh of relief. "Are you sure she isn't in any danger?"The doctor replied, "I can't guarantee it. Unless you get Miss Tate to do a detailed body checkup…"Avery was probably frightened by the doctor's words, so she opened her eyes."Miss Tate, you're up!" The doctor saw her waking up, and he immediately said, "I just gave you something for your fever. How are you feeling right now?"Avery looked at the doctor before looking at Mike."You were having a fever. I don't know why you were having a fever. The weather isn't cold at all!" Mike grumbled."Maybe it might be a bacterial or viral infection. It might not be due to the cold," the doctor said."Hmm. Thank you for coming. Let me

    "After your shower, come out to have some oatmeal porridge. Then, go back to sleep after eating something," Mike said and headed for the door. "Don't close your room door. I want to be able to hear you if you fall. If there is no sound when you hit the ground then at least I can hear the falling of other objects and other sounds.""I'm not an idiot. How could I not make a sound when I fall?""When you passed out last night, there were no signs at all. Hayden was so frightened he wanted to send you to the hospital. I checked for breath, and it was still regular, which is only why we didn't send you to the hospital.""I guess Hayden must be scared to death.""How could he not? This morning, he refused to go to school. I had to force him," Mike said. "If he isn't going to school, the two of us will be watching over you by your bed. I think you're not sick or dying, yet the two of us are acting like you're not going to make it. It's a little silly."Avery took her clothes into the bat

    Of course, Natalie did not want to die. She only thought that Avery would not be able to find out about her so quickly.One was because Avery was going to Bridgedale to deal with Wanda at that moment. Also, after she tricked Avery and Elliot into the underground cellar, someone interfered and kidnapped Elliot.Even if Avery was to investigate it, she would only investigate who kidnapped Elliot.After Natalie returned to her bedroom, Mrs. Jennings went to the guest room next door.She was distracted. She felt that the truth had created a bigger rift between her and her daughter. This was not what she had wanted. She could do without her husband, but she could not lose her daughter.Besides, Avery posed a danger to Natalie at that moment. She had to find a way to help Natalie.Just like before, when her daughter left to study abroad and found jobs after graduation. She had secretly helped her daughter.Only she understood the pain of her child.Although Dean Jennings lost a lot

    "Dad, were you looking for me?" Sebastian closed the door behind him after he entered the office.Dean was sitting on the rotating leather chair. Looking at his son, he said, "Sebastian, you met with Avery already. How was it?""It's just like old schoolmates meeting up. Nothing much, but I feel she still looks down on me just like before," Sebastian complained. "This woman is direct. She never gives face to others while talking, but I do quite like her character.""Give me her contact. I want to let her have a look at your brother's illness," said Dean, revealing his reason for contacting his son. The amusement in Sebastian's eyes was instantly gone. "Dad, didn't you say Aunt Angela would help treat him?""Your Aunt Angela has other things to be busy about. She can't cope with your brother's illness for now," Dean said. "Give me Avery's number. I'll get my assistant to contact her."Dean was not discussing it with Sebastian. He was ordering his son. Sebastian did not dare to

    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.
