The hospital was not open at this hour.

She sat down on the couch as the image of Hayden's face filled her mind.

Hayden might not remember her, but she remembered everything about him.

Though Hayden's company was not based in Aryadelle, he was born and raised in Aryadelle so news about him had never been far from Shelly's ears.

He was an extremely talented businessman with great looks and a powerful family background, so he tended to draw more attention to himself than actors in the entertainment business did.

Shelly unlocked her phone and searched for Hayden's name on the internet and was instantly greeted by countless articles about him.

The latest news reported that Hayden had returned to Aryadelle to be at a family member's funeral.

Shelly clicked on the article and realized that Hayden's aunt had passed away.

Since the funeral had taken place the day before, Hayden should still be in Avonsville.

'So what if he is in Avonsville? Am I supposed to just go and tell him that I

    "Are you married? If you don't want the child, we will need the signature of the father to proceed with an abortion," the doctor said.Shelly could not possibly get Hayden to sign the paperwork for her because she had no means of reaching him."Can't I just sign it myself?" Shelly asked. "I'm not married, nor do I have a boyfriend.""You must be really careless, then! You can get a family member to sign it for you. You won't be able to proceed with the procedures today, so you will need to make an appointment," the doctor continued. "Why don't you go home and consider your options?""Do I have to get my family to sign it? They aren't in the same city." Shelly was reluctant to inform her family about this as her parents would be devastated.The doctor shot her a look. "Get the father of the child to sign it, then. Without anyone to sign the consent paper, who's going to take responsibility if something goes wrong during the surgery?"Shelly knew that the doctor was merely advising

    Shelly had considered everything.She concluded that she could not keep the child and had to keep her pregnancy a secret from her family and colleagues."What is it? Do you need money? How much?" Courtney asked."No. It's not that. Let's just meet and talk!" Shelly could not bring herself to talk about it over the phone."Alright. Are you at the apartment now? I will drop by later.""Sure."Forty minutes later, Courtney arrived at the flat, and Shelly was waiting with a home-cooked meal.Courtney's lips curled into a smile. "Shelly, it's not even time for lunch yet! What's so important that you can't talk about it over the phone? I'm itching to know."She sat down in a chair and stared at Shelly.Shelly poured her a glass of water and sat down next to her. "Courtney, we don't have any mutual friends, and you don't know my family, so you are the only one I could think of to ask," Shelly said seriously. "I'm pregnant, and I want an abortion, but the hospital requires a third par

    Shelly wavered at Courtney's words.Hayden was a brilliant man, and she could not help but wonder how his child would turn out.However, it would be a torment for the child to be born into a family that struggled to make ends meet, and if the child could choose, they might not want to be born into the world only to suffer.If she chose to give birth to the baby, the baby would be considered Hayden's illegitimate child."Look, you are hesitating." Courtney studied Shelly's face. "Reconsider, Shelly!""I've thought about it for days, but I can't afford to give birth to the baby. I don't have the time or money. I can't work while taking care of a child... nor can I get my mom to help on that front. My mom is ill, and my brother is just going into university..." Shelly said hysterically. "This isn't the right time to bring a new life into the picture.""Shelly, you are thinking too much. Your mom is recovering, right? Which means your dad can go back to work soon. Once he starts work

    It was a cloudy day, and there was not a soul in the street so when a car stopped outside the mansion, the servant immediately headed toward the gate. "I didn't hear that we were expecting guests!"The bodyguard went over as well.It was a taxi, and once the car door opened, the servant and bodyguard froze at the sound of a baby crying.It had been years since the sound of a baby crying had been heard in Elliot's mansion.The bodyguard immediately opened the gate and went outside to survey the situation, and the servant hurried after him.A middle-aged woman with a baby in her arms stepped out, and since it was snowing, the woman had wrapped the baby tightly in a blanket."Who are you?" the servant asked curiously. "Do you know the owner of this place?"The woman shook her head and said, "Is this Elliot Foster's house? I'm here to deliver a baby. The security guard didn't want to let me in and only made an exception when I said that this baby belongs to the Fosters."Both the b

    "You are Avery Tate, right? This baby belongs to your people... If you want him, you need to pay me," the woman said to Avery. "The person who sent me told me that you would pay me if I handed the baby to you. Just look at the weather today! It's not easy for me to travel all this way with your baby!"The servant hurried over and placed the jacket across Avery’s shoulders, just in time to hear what the woman had said. "We don't even know whose baby this is yet! Bring the baby's mother here to talk to us!" The servant was firmly on Avery's side.Avery and Elliot had had a harmonious marriage, and they had four children together.'Why would there be an illegitimate child out of nowhere? How will Avery accept this? How are Avery's children going to take this?' the servant thought."There's no point in you arguing with me! I'm just here to deliver the baby. If you refuse to pay me, then... I won't hand the baby over," the woman said angrily, dumbfounded that they felt no pity for the b

    "Mr. Foster, don't you feel sorry for this baby? If you don't want him, I guess I will just send him to an orphanage." Feeling as though she was freezing, the woman intended to leave with the child, as she gambled on the chance that Elliot would not have the heart to abandon a baby."Stop right there!" Elliot roared. "Who handed you this baby? Did she say anything else apart from asking you to deliver the baby?"The woman stopped. "She didn't say anything else! She just said that you would pay me if I delivered the baby here. Had I known that this is how you all would be treating me, I wouldn't have come. I'm just a milk delivery worker. I don't know anything else."Elliot was speechless.The bodyguard noticed the troubled look on his face and said, "Mr. Foster, just let her leave!"The bodyguard knew that Avery would never allow the baby to stay and would likely still be furious even if the baby was sent away.This was proof that Elliot had been cheating on Avery, and any woman

    There was a slim possibility that someone had schemed to obtain his DNA to produce his child in a lab."What if the child is yours?" Avery asked, her voice muffled as she glared at him with tears in her eyes."It can't be mine! Even if he's mine, someone must have played some kind of trick! I don't love anyone but you!" Elliot's chest heaved. "If this child is mine, I will give everything up. You can have everything and all of our kids. I don't want anything."Avery pulled away from him and went back into the house.She would have left right away if they did not have any children. However, they had four children who were all adults at this point, so she knew that she could not act recklessly.If Elliot was truly cheating on her and had ended up having an illegitimate child, she knew that her children would not spare him.Avery took off her jacket once she returned to the living room, feeling like she was boiling with anger.The bodyguard carried the baby inside, and, though the

    The baby had stopped crying and was behaving because someone was holding him.The servant felt anxious as Elliot and Avery had always been a loving couple who had not had a fight in years."What if the results aren't ideal?" the servant thought.She set the baby onto the bed and took out her phone, wondering whether she should call Layla in case Layla could help calm her parents down.Half an hour later, Layla hurried home. However, it had nothing to do with the servant's phone call. The finance manager of her company had informed her that Avery was requesting a legal separation agreement where Elliot would be left with nothing.Terrified, Layla immediately set all her work aside and hurried home."Dad, what's going on? Are you and Mom fighting?" Layla darted into the living room without even taking her shoes off.Elliot sat on the couch alone in the living room.The servant heard Layla's voice and ran outside. "Layla, why are you here?" The servant was still contemplating whet

    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
