Avery looked at her bodyguards. She did indeed feel much safer. She put her gun back into her bag and followed Angela out of the cafe.

"Avery, you mentioned James Hough's diary. Is it fake? How could you lie to me?" Angela was furious that she had been lied to.

"It's not a complete lie." Avery took Angela to her car. They sat in the backseat while Wilson drove.

"Professor Hough did indeed have a habit of writing in his diary. He has more than ten notebooks, but they are all with Mrs. Hough." Avery glanced at Angela. "I only have a few of his lesson notes."

"Avery, you're despicable. I knew that he would never mention me. Not even on paper. It is impossible." Angela had completely given up.

"Angela, Professor Hough had indeed mentioned you to us before." Avery took out a piece of yellowed paper from her back. "Have a look at yourself. I don't know if you can recognize his handwriting."

Angela took the paper and looked at the paper. Her name, Angela Hills, was clearly written on it

    It was just as Angela had said. The office doors were shut tight."Open your doors. I want to go in!" said Avery when they were both out of the car. "I don't have the keys! I have to get others…" Angela's mind was spinning."Then, call and get someone to come over immediately." Avery did not doubt Angela's words.Wilson noticed Angela's gaze. He said to Avery, "No need. I can open the doors!" Then, Wilson took his gun out and aimed it at the lock. He pulled the trigger!"With two loud bangs, the door opened!Angela was so frightened that she took a few steps back.Avery did not care about her. Once the door was opened, she entered the office.Wilson was holding onto Angela, following Avery."When did your company shut down?" Avery looked inside. The office equipment was still there, but there was no one to be seen."Quite some time ago! I can't remember when. I haven't been managing this company for a very long time. You know how much money it takes to do research. Dean is

    Angela sneered and said nothing else."You don't dare to say anything more because you're afraid! Angela, just wait! Your wedding with Dean might only happen in hell!" Wilson continued intimidating her.The smile on Angela's face vanished. She could not help but reach her hand into her bag."What are you doing!" Wilson yelled roughly when he saw her actions.Angela shuddered. She furrowed her brows. "I'm looking at James Hough's paper! I haven't committed any crime or been arrested yet. How dare you treat me as a criminal!""You're not allowed to look at that paper!" Wilson grabbed her bag. "Before Miss Tate lets you go, you're a criminal!"Angela gritted her teeth, but she could do nothing.The bodyguard she brought along had been secretly cowering by the side. He wanted to pretend that he did not exist.However, whatever one fears the most usually would happen.Angela soon noticed her useless bodyguard. "What are you hiding there for? Useless!"The bodyguard said timidly, "

    "Go and ask quickly! I'm starving!"Mike glared at Angela before walking to the side to contact the renovation company.Half an hour later, the renovation company sent over the blueprints and simulation of Angela's company.Mike had a look at it before handing his phone over to Avery.After looking at the blueprints, Avery got up from the chair with a pale face."Avery, you have had your fun. Can my bodyguard and I leave already?" Angela yelled at Avery with a dark expression.Avery clenched her fists tightly. She turned around and looked at Angela coldly. "You can leave, but this isn't finished.""Then, you continue looking! In the future, if you call me, see if I will come to meet you or not!" Angela had been cheated this time. She will not be cheated next time!After coming out of the office, Angela thought about the thing that Avery gave her. Her anger dissipated a little.She had initially thought that James Hough was a heartless dirtbag. She had never thought him differe

    Avery got down from the bed. The doctor saw her get down and said in surprise, "Miss Tate, what are you doing?""I want to grab something." She walked over to the luggage and bent down."Miss Tate, your abdomen is hurt! Don't bend down. What do you want, I'll help you get it." The doctor quickly placed his medicine down and helped Avery up.Avery said, "Please help me open the bag. There is a white shirt inside. Please help me get it."The doctor immediately opened the bag. The man's shirt was placed in a prominent place. The doctor picked up the shirt and asked, "Is this the one?""Yes." Avery took the shirt and returned to bed, sitting down."Miss Tate, this shirt is a little dirty." The doctor looked at the shirt and said, "Can't you wash off the dirt on it?""I'm not washing it." Avery hugged the shirt with a serious expression.The doctor did not dare to say anything. He merely concocted the medicine, gave Avery an injection, and came out of the bedroom."Miss Tate is h

    "You can drink a little. I'll get the bodyguard to send you back later." Mike poured the doctor some wine and pushed the wine glass to the doctor. "I won't get you drunk. You still have to change Avery's medication!"The doctor reluctantly accepted the glass and took a sip."I'm not familiar with Angela, but some of my friends admire her. They often bring her up. I heard that her biggest wish in this life is to win the Marshall's Award. Do you know about that?" The doctor asked.Mike shook his head before nodding. "I have heard of it before, but I have never understood it. It seems like an amazing award.""The Marshall's Award is the most prestigious award in the medical field. The last winner of the Marshall's Award was Professor James Hough. Angela likes Professor Hough. Everyone in the medical field knows about this, so naturally, she wants to win the Marshall's Award too. Even if it was not to compare with Professor Hough, it would also be to prove herself in the medical field.

    "Avery, do you think this will work?" Mike asked Avery in a low voice as he walked over to her."Why not?" Avery asked. "The search dog's job is to do this.""I'm only afraid that Elliot was not here," Mike said. "This place is so close to us. If Elliot was here previously that would be too crazy!""Sometimes the most dangerous place would be the safest place.""Hmm. If Elliot is not here, you rest at home for a few days before planning the next step," said Mike, trying to discuss matters with her."I know. I dreamt of him yesterday. He said that he is not dead yet. I believe that he isn't dead." Avery was a little excited. "Mike, I have already thought it through. If he is really dead, I'll go and be with him. I'll leave my children to you."Mike was bewildered."Miss Tate, how could you say such things!" Wilson said agitatedly. "Even if Elliot is dead, you can't die! If not, how are you going to avenge him!""I will surely avenge him. I will kill Dean and Angela, before looki

    Mike was relieved. Avery could also breathe a sigh of relief.Avery ran upstairs. The bodyguard held onto her, helping her into the room in which the search rescue dog was at."It should be this storage room."Avery entered the room. The police pointed at a foldable mattress the dog had sniffed out."Mr. Foster has most likely been on this bed. There is his scent on it," the police officer said.Avery's eyes reddened. She unfolded the mattress and took a sniff.Mike cleared his throat. "Avery, since the dog has already sniffed it out, you can stop sniffing. We can take this mattress away. This is evidence!"Avery choked up and said, "I'll go look for Angela right now to demand an explanation!""Avery, I don't have Angela's number. Why don't you call her? But she said yesterday that she will no longer see you. I'm afraid that she might not answer your call," Mike said. "Why don't I send someone to Dean's house to see if Angela is there or not?""I'll call her first!" Avery took

    "Are you telling me what to do?" Dean sneered."Dad, I'm just worried that this will affect our family. Avery said on the phone that she won't let Angela live, and she has all the power Elliot had at her expense. Are you really going to go against them?" Sebastian said. "We won't stand a chance. If we already know that we are going to lose, why are we still doing this?""You've overestimated yourself, Sebastian. Your brother is better than you because he believed in me, but of course, that makes him more foolish than you are." Dean commented on his sons with contempt. "If what you foresee is the same thing as I expect, do you really think I would go up against them? I'm seventy-three this year, boy. I've been through more than you can imagine. Are you saying all this because you think I've lost my mind from old age?!""That's not it, Dad... I'm not doubting you. I'm just worried that our family would get dragged into unnecessary conflict," Sebastian said while trying to figure out w

    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.
