Avery and Elliot were instantly stunned.

"Hayden, you found Ivy?" Layla yelled in shock.

"No, but I have found some news." Hayden had not wanted to divulge what he had found yet, but when Avery informed her children that Ivy might be dead, he could no longer remain silent.

"Hayden, what news did you find?" Avery's heart was about to pop out. Her breath quickened.

Elliot's gaze burned into Hayden. His voice trembled a little, "Hayden, where is Ivy right now?"

"I don't know where she is. The only thing I know is that they have not killed her. The crime syndicate knew that she was your daughter, and they did not toss her with the other children in the pit." Hayden told them everything he knew. "The person only knew that Ivy had been sold to someone rich. That person had bought Ivy at a high price, so surely he would not kill her."

This topic was clearly beyond Robert's understanding. He did not understand what was going on, but he could understand the word kill. He was so afraid

    "Mommy, I'm sure you know Holly Blanche, right?" Hayden asked, looking into Avery's eyes.Avery stiffened. Hatred made her grimace. "Of course! She was the one who tricked your daddy and me into the underground cellar!""Natalie was the one who paid her to do such things. I thought that she might know where Ivy is, so I sent someone to look for her," said Hayden, coming clean. "Holly is a very smart woman. She got a huge sum of money from Natalie. After she escaped from Ylore, she bought herself a new identity.""You found Holly?" Avery's heart was beating wildly. Hayden shook his head. "I found her boyfriend. She got together with him by using her fake identity." "Hayden, you're amazing. How did you find Holly? She used a fake identity, yet you could still find her." Avery was completely amazed by her son's abilities.No wonder Hayden had said that Elliot was not capable enough.Avery did not think that Elliot was not capable, but Hayden's mind was clearly more agile. He thou

    Sebastian did not expect that the call would connect, but no one picked up. "Sir, we can contact the police to pinpoint the location of her phone," one bodyguard suggested."Hmm, I think so too."Natalie was his sister. The police would surely help him to look for her, but he had never thought that locating her was such a simple matter. He just provided his identity card and proof of Natalie and Dean's relationship, and the police immediately helped him locate the position of Natalie's phone.The location showed that Natalie's phone was in a rural and remote area surrounded by hills.Once he got the exact position, Sebastian and his bodyguards went there looking for Natalie."She would dare to escape to such a remote area. She sure is bold!" One bodyguard mocked."I guess us coming to Aryadelle to look for her must have scared her." Sebastian leaned back in his chair and closed his eyes, resting. "But her phone is on. I suspect something must have happened to her. If not, she

    Sebastian was not familiar with Holly, but from their messages, he saw a name that made his eyes brighten— Ivy.Ivy was Elliot's and Avery's long-lost daughter.They had been in Ylore, looking for her, and that was how Natalie had set them up. They had almost died in the suburbs of a foreign country!After going through Natalie and Holly's messages, Sebastian could roughly guess Holly's identity.He was overjoyed. He felt as if he had just won a jackpot. The first thing he thought of doing was calling his father and giving him the news. His father would surely be very happy.After this thought appeared, he felt sad! He clearly hated his father and wanted to kill him. That way, no one could call him useless anymore. No one would use the Jennings family fortune to force him into obedience.However, why did the first thought he have was one which involved pleasing his father? He had just gotten a very important lead. He could have told Avery. If he wanted a reward, Avery would s

    To make matters worse, Elliot was particular about cleanliness, so he kept grumbling, wanting to wash his hair.Avery had to find a way to wash his hair. Her phone rang, but she was in the bathroom, so she did not hear it. It was Robert who had brought her phone to her. If Robert had not given her, her phone, she would not have heard it ringing nor would she have answered the call. "I'm returning to Bridgedale tomorrow," Sebastian said, waiting for Avery to understand what he was trying to say.Avery placed the call on loudspeaker mode and put it to the side. She continued washing Elliot's hair. "Have you found Natalie?""No," Sebastian said lightheartedly. "Are you free tomorrow? Why don't you treat me to a meal? Aryadelle is your territory."Avery noticed Elliot tensing and she rejected Sebastion without a moment's hesitation. "I'm not free tomorrow. Elliot has just gotten discharged. I have to be with him. I can treat you to a meal when I'm in Bridgedale next time."A sen

    Avery sounded calm as if they were discussing an inconsequential matter. "Have you thought this through?""Does this need thinking about?" Avery asked in return.Elliot shook his head."Don't shake your head. Have you forgotten that you have head injuries?" Avery sighed.She understood how Elliot felt. After going through so many incidents together, it was easy to understand the other person's heart. "What about next Monday? Hayden said that he is leaving on the weekend. We'll head to the Civil Registry Office on Monday. We'll get Hayden to come along." Avery was reluctant to be apart from her son."If you want Hayden to stay with you for a few more days, we can go to the registrar next Monday, instead of this Friday." Elliot understood what she was trying to do, so he made that suggestion."I can't force Hayden to stay with me just because he listens to me. This will affect his studies. Do you know how tired Hayden usually is? The things he learns in a year is something stud

    "I never thought that she was living under our very noses, but if she does not know anything about Ivy and her whereabouts, she is no use to us either." Sebastian thought back to how Avery viewed him, and he grew upset. "Who would have thought that Holly Blanche knew everything.""This person is no ordinary person. She even survived Elliot and Avery without giving in to their demands…" Dean looked at Natalie's phone and narrowed his sly eyes. "Natalie could easily get her over to her side. Should I say that Natalie has some good tricks up her sleeves or that Holly has no vision? If I were her, I would surely pick Elliot.""Dad, maybe Holly feels Natalie to be more trustworthy," Sebastian said. "Right now, the most important thing is to contact Holly.""Sebastian, handle this. Take Natalie's phone and meet up with Holly. Whatever Natalie is paying her, we can double it. We have to get her on our side." Dean was excited when he said that. "If we can locate Ivy and get to her before E

    Hayden was a little baffled about having to keep the marriage certificates.Other children handed things to their parents for safekeeping; why was it the other way around in his family?Hayden was a minimalist. He carried all his important belongings with him in his bag.His bag only had his laptop and mouse. If his parents gave him their marriage certificates for safekeeping, he had no choice but to place them in his bag.He would have to deal with the emotions that would stem from taking their marriage certificates to school, daily. "Hayden, have you bought your tickets?" Elliot was in a good mood, so he mustered up the courage to chat with his son."I bought a ticket for tonight." Hayden placed their marriage certificates into his bag before passing the camera to his mother. "The photos I took might not be good."Avery accepted the camera and casually browsed through a few photos. She praised him and said, "As long as you took it, it will look great.""No matter who takes

    After Avery selected the tea, she turned to Elliot, "Elliot, do you know what language this is? It seems like it's in Italian.""You're right. It is Italian."Avery heard the certainty behind his answer and said, "You understand Italian?""I've learned a little in the past, but I haven't used it for many years. I have forgotten most of it already." Elliot placed the menu in front of Hayden so that he might choose what he wanted. "Why did you learn Italian? I thought you majored in architecture?" Avery was shocked to find out that he knew Italian. She had seen his bookshelf, and there were many foreign books in their original languages, but she had thought that he had bought those books just to complete his collection and for superficial reasons. She did not think he understood what they meant. "Back then, it was because I liked an Italian architect, so I bought her book. Since I didn't want to read a translated version of the book, I had to learn Italian," Elliot said.Hayden

    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.
