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
She thought she was dreaming because she could see the halo of light surrounding him. She stepped toward him and he turned around abruptly. She saw his brooding eyes and sensed the warmth radiating off his body, and it was then that she finally realized that it was not a dream."Why did you get out of bed?" He held her arm and asked, "Did I wake you?"She shook her head. "I slept for too long, and whenever that happens, I wake up feeling dizzy." "Why don't we go down for a walk, then?"Elliot had spoken to the doctor and had learned that there was nothing wrong with the baby. The main issue was that Avery was emotionally unstable, and this had caused her hyperventilation and spike in heart rate. Once she calmed down and rested, she would recover, but the child would be affected if she failed to do so.Avery glanced outside the window and saw how bright it was outside, so she nodded and stepped out of the room with Elliot."Avery, don't worry about the trouble your company is exp
The headline of an article stood out to her. [Core Technology of Tate Industries Stolen! Where Would This Company Go Next?]There were plenty of comments below.[Tate Industries only started two years ago, right? Are they closing down already? I highly suspect that the building their office is in is haunted!][Does no one else realize how expensive Tate Industries' products are? The quality isn't bad, but they completely rule the high-end drone market. I hate it!][Hehe! So is the price for drones is going to drop now? Clap-clap!][My dad works for Tate Industries, and I don't want to see it go down! The company treats its employees with care. They have great benefits, and most importantly, the president is kind to everyone! My dream is to work there once I graduate…]Avery exited the article and clicked open her messenger to find Mike's message.[Wanda has the microchip!]Avery was not surprised by this. She had, however, not expected Wanda to act this quickly. That aftern
She blushed."Please, do not pry into President Tate's personal life," said Shaun in a gentle reminder to the reporter."I just want to know if Elliot Foster has anything to do with the 'Win-Win Alliance'. It's a brilliant plan.""So, are you hinting that President Tate could not have come up with such an idea herself?" asked Shaun sharply."Of course not. One of my colleagues captured the moment when Elliot Foster was seen entering Tate Industries at night a week ago. Was he there to help manage the operation?"The reporter had now officially mentioned Elliot's name and the blush on Avery's face deepened.The crowd focused on her and waited for her reply.After a few moments of silence, she answered sincerely, "The Win-Win Alliance is a solution that I came up with after discussing the matter with my director of operations. As for the rest, I have no further comment."The reporter changed the subject and asked, "Miss Tate, Madam Tate of Wonder Technologies claimed that they ha
Avery could feel her face burning. "When have I said anything about getting back together with him?" "Just now! You told me how much he had done for you, and you said that you also wanted to get him a gift and dinner. It's so obvious that you've fallen for him," Tammy said. "Don't forget what I said. I am really accurate when it comes to reading people. That Nora girl might look tame, but she is even better at scheming than Zoe is!" Avery remained thoughtful for a few seconds and said, "But she doesn't have leverage.""She can create leverage. So long as she doesn't give up, you will always be her biggest enemy. She and Chelsea will definitely team up against you." Tammy removed her facial mask and continued, "Elliot Foster is one big chunk of meat, and everyone wants a bite. Avery, be careful!"Avery felt calmer after talking to Tammy."Not only does he have to fire Nora, but he also needs to fire Chelsea!" said Tammy. "If you are too embarrassed to tell him this, I will talk t
