Elliot stopped. Avery quickly caught up to him. "When did you get here?" Avery looked at him. His face was blank and impassive. He looked away and said in an extremely low voice, "Yesterday.""What are you doing here?" asked Avery in a voice that was a few octaves higher. "Did you come alone?"She did not know why she stopped him, or why she was asking him all these questions.They had both been in an argument, and neither wanted to admit defeat. Despite seeing each other, they could have each gone their separate ways, but Avery could not control the thoughts coursing through her mind. "What if he came here specifically looking for me?" she thought."There's a speech at a school." Elliot swallowed. He could not help but look at her. "I studied here for a year in high school. I'm going there to give a speech this afternoon. Do you come?"Avery was a little disappointed. She did not hide it very well."I'm with Hayden today. I'm not free," Avery said and looked at Hayden.Hayd

There were only three of them in the huge room. The atmosphere was strangely quiet.The waiter left after serving the food.Elliot was thinking about what to say, and just as he was about to say something, Avery beat him to it. She had spoken because she did not want him to say anything that might upset Hayden."Hayden, didn't you say you were hungry? This restaurant is quite good. Have more food."Avery placed a huge pile of food on Hayden's plate.Hayden lowered his head and ate. He did not even look at Elliot.Elliot picked up a ladle and scooped some soup for Avery. "When are you planning to return to Aryadelle?"Avery did not want to talk to Elliot in front of Hayden because Hayden was extremely sensitive to Elliot. She was worried that the rift between father and son would worsen with a single misspoken sentence. "Let's eat!" Avery lowered her gaze and ate small mouthfuls of food.A moment later, Hayden was full. He placed his utensils down. "Mommy, I'm tired. I'll go h

"Why didn't you bring a bodyguard? Don't you know that you are a public figure?" Avery furrowed her brows. She was suddenly angry. "Did you think that there wouldn't be danger in Bridgedale? It is much safer in Aryadelle than it is in Bridgedale!"Elliot looked at her agitated face. Words got stuck in his throat."Avery, don't be angry. I made a last-minute decision to come here," explained Elliot. "At that time, there weren't any extra seats, so I came alone." "Couldn't you just have gotten on the next flight with your bodyguard?" Although Avery was complaining, she had calmed down. "You're staying at my place tonight.""Okay.""Did you deliberately tell me this?" The more she thought, the more suspicious she got. "Did you really not take your bodyguard along with you?""What about the trust we just talked about?" said Elliot pointedly. "If I wanted to stay at your place, I have a thousand ways of getting that done. The only thing I won't do is lie to you in order to gain your

Shaun was sobbing on the phone, and Avery knew that she had to hurry back. Her mind went blank at the sudden turn of events. The core technology of Tate Industries had been stolen, and most pathetic of all was that they had no idea who had stolen it.With Mike and Avery both out of the country, the miscreant had taken the opportunity to steal the technology.The company's core technology was stored in a microchip behind layers of encryption. Hence, although the chip had been stolen, there was a high chance that the thief had yet to decode it. However, decoding it was an eventuality. The world was never short of incidents, just like Zoe's suicide. Another event that she had failed to predict.At seven in the morning, Hayden stepped out of his room and found the entire mansion drowning in silence. It did not sound like there was another soul in the mansion. He went over to Avery's room and noticed that the sheets were in a mess, but there was no one around."Mom!" Hayden shouted lo

Her secretary immediately helped her up while Shaun called an ambulance.Once Avery was taken to the hospital, the news of it spread like wildfire."It looks like Tate Industries is really in a crisis this time! Avery Tate was all high and mighty before but now she has to be carried away in an ambulance. How pathetic!""Isn't the baby she's carrying suffering the most? I heard that it's Elliot Foster's, is it true?""Who knows? Apart from the one she is carrying, she has two other kids… Those two are definitely not Elliot Foster's, or he would have fought for custody.""Avery sure has a chaotic personal life! All things aside, Tate Industries is doomed this time! With their core technology stolen, how could they continue selling their products at such a high price? She will soon lose her throne in the high-end market!""It's a good thing for the consumer, though.""But it's fatal damage to Avery! It's no wonder she passed out!"…When Wanda caught the news, she cheerfully open

Just then, the doctor came back with the documents and walked over to the bed. "Miss Tate, I have just filed your documents."Chad overheard him and tensed. "What happened, Avery? Why are you hospitalized? Which hospital are you in right now? I'll go there right away!"Unable to lie, Avery told him the truth.Once she hung up, her secretary said, "I will go make the payment, Miss Tate.""Thank you. You can go back to the office as soon as you are done with that!""I can stay here and take care of you, Miss Tate.""It's fine. Go back and tell the others I'm okay. I will call Shaun once I figure out what to do about the current situation.""Okay, Miss Tate."Twenty minutes later and Chad was at the hospital. After checking on Avery's condition, he said, "I've called Mrs. Cooper to take care of you. Rest well and don't think about anything else.""I feel better now," she said calmly."Okay. I've told the bodyguards to get you some food. Rest after you have eaten," he said."Oka

"Isn't that Elliot Foster? Sterling Group's boss? Why is he here? Mr. Locklyn, you said that Mr. Mike is back, but where is he? Why did you lie to us?" said an employee in protest.Shaun explained with resignation, "You must have all heard about the relationship between our boss and Mr. Foster. Our president has been hospitalized, and Mr. Foster has decided to help." "Oh… It's good that he is helping, but why take our phone? It feels weird.""My phone has been confiscated as well, but Mr. Foster must have his reasons for doing so," Shaun said.Everyone turned their attention to the man sitting in the president's chair.Elliot oozed intimidation. He had a dark expression on his face. Under his intense stare, all the employees felt as though they had committed some crime when in fact, they had not."Some of you must know how the microchip was stolen." Elliot scanned the crowd with sharp eyes. "I will give you one minute. If no one comes forth within one minute, I will deal with yo

Elliot stared down at them coldly as he pursed his lips."I'm finding that traitor even if that's the last thing I do!" he thought.When Avery opened her eyes the next morning, the first thing she saw was Mike's face. "Avery, you're awake!" Mike adjusted her bed and passed her a bowl of soup. "Have some soup."She had not fully woken up yet and accepted the bowl dazedly."How are you feeling today?" Mike sat down by the bed and stared at her face. "Why didn't you tell me that something like this has happened? Why did you come back on your own? I would die of guilt if something had happened to you."Avery sobered. "You were drunk. How was I supposed to let you know?""Alright! I shouldn't have drunk with Elliot!" Mike sighed and said, "But we should really thank him this time. He helped us find the traitor."Avery blinked when she heard that. "Who was it? Who betrayed us?" she asked in a voice rough with emotion. "The technical department." Mike lowered his head because he wa

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
