It was Chad's phone.

Everyone turned their attention to Chad, and he immediately started sweating nervously.

He took out his phone and saw that it was Mike. He wanted to answer but did not dare to. If he rejected the call, he would miss out on a chance at gaining important information on Avery.

After a few moments of hesitation, he answered the call under everyone's watchful gaze.

"Chad, how did your boss react after watching the video?" Mike asked.

Chad glanced over at Elliot and noticed the dark expression on Elliot's face. His eagle-like eyes were so sharp that they could kill.

Chad held onto his phone and escaped the office.

"F*ck! What kind of stupid question is that? How else do you expect him to react?" sighed Chad. He had taken a deep, long breath after exiting the office. "Have you managed to get in touch with Avery?"

"I did." Mike desperately wanted to tell Chad the exact words Avery had said, but he knew that Chad would not buy it without proof, and he became slight

    Tammy walked past him and strode toward Elliot's office."Your wife looks like she is here to pick a fight or something," muttered Chad.Jun sighed with resignation. "I told her not to come but she keeps insisting. She insists that the woman in the video is not Avery, but I watched it carefully, and I still think that it's Avery!""Tammy is good friends with Avery, so naturally she would side with her. Mike is the same. He told me that the woman in that video is Nora. He said that Nora imitated Avery's voice, the pregnant belly that you see is just CG effects… He seemed so serious that I almost believed him." Jun exclaimed, "Does he think that this is a movie?"Chad adjusted his spectacles and said, "What he said is possible, but the chances of that are slim. Those two are having a much harder time accepting that Avery is this sort of woman." "You are right. Tammy's gone crazy! I can't seem to get her to calm down ever since she saw that video." "Same with my boss. He hasn't

    To his surprise, his call was immediately answered."I'm coming back tomorrow," her voice was calm and unwavering, "Let's talk then."All the rage and fear storming within him was instantly overpowered by her the sound of her voice.Elliot thought back to what Ben had said. Ben had told him that Avery knew how to manipulate him, and she was very successful at it.It was at that moment that Elliot finally understood what Ben meant. Avery did have him wrapped around her fingers. All it took was a few words from her, and he would choose her over all the evidence and proof that suggested her betrayal. "Avery," he said in a voice that was rough and hoarse with grief. Avery could tell how hard he was struggling from his voice. He must have watched the video and suspected her role in it, or he would not be in so much pain."Elliot, I know it's difficult for you to trust me," she said, struggling to explain herself beneath the strain that gripped them. "When I saw the video, even I th

    He could not tell his mother the true reason, or she might not agree. He tried his best to look sincere, "I'm exhausted from summer camp." He had done his best to make the lie sound convincing. Avery's heart softened, and she agreed. "Darling, you need to tell me when you are stressed from school next time. Studying is important, but your health is always your top priority."Hayden nodded.Meanwhile, it was eight in the evening at Aryadelle, and Ben was at Elliot's mansion. Ben poured Elliot a glass of wine, but Elliot turned it down."I can't drink anymore." Elliot had already drunk two glasses, and his face was flushed. His eyes were unfocused, but he could still remember that he would be meeting with Avery the next day. If he drank too much, it would affect him physically tomorrow."Fine, I'll drink it myself." Ben grabbed Elliot's glass and drank from it."Don't drink too much." Elliot glanced at him. "I know that you are doing this for me, but—""But, what?! But you won't

    Provoked by Ben's words, she reminded him, "Ben, this is between me and him.""When Tammy on your behalf and started shouting like a crazy woman, was I supposed to tell her the same thing as well?" Ben retorted.Avery's blood ran cold at his words, and she froze.She had come here to explain to Elliot what had happened that day in the hotel. She wanted to explain her side of things whether or not he chose to believe her, because at least she would have no regrets.However, everything just seemed so ridiculous now."How could I have forgotten Tammy?" thought Avery. Tammy had always been so protective of her, and she must have gone to Elliot and the others to explain what happened. Judging from their reactions at the moment, it was clear that none of them believed Tammy.If that was the case, there was no need for her to waste her time explaining herself."If you think that I'm the woman in the video, then so be it!" she said coldly, "Forget I even came here."With that, she tu

    She was not the woman in the video. In fact, she was the victim, but she was forced to defend herself because of public opinion. Avery called Tammy."Avery, why did you come back so early?" Tammy was slightly confused. "If I were you, I would have remained a bit longer in Bridgedale. It's not because I'd be scared or anything, but it's just that some of the people here in Aryadale are just disgusting.""Running won't solve the problem. I've already met with them," said Avery calmly. "Tammy, I heard that you went to them for my sake. Thank you for trusting me.""Why are you thanking me? Coming to think of it, it's my fault. If only I had kept my phone safe, it wouldn't have gotten stolen, and without my phone, the thieves would not have been able to trick you into going to that hotel," said Tammy in frustration. "Even if they couldn't steal your phone, they would have come up with other ways to get me there." Avery looked outside the window and said, "It's getting cold. Let's go

    At Caesar Hotel, Tammy was in a blonde wig with thick makeup on her face. She was dressed to the nines. She entered the lobby.When the concierge staff saw her, they all felt an instant attraction. "I'm looking for your manager," Tammy said, walking up to a concierge and smiling elegantly.The concierge forgot to ask Tammy for her identity. She immediately called her manager.Soon, the manager came over. When the manager saw Tammy, he was stunned. "Miss, is there anything I can help you with?""Let's talk somewhere else." Tammy hooked her arm over the manager's shoulder. "Let's head to your office. There is something good I want to share with you."When the manager heard what Tammy said, he immediately brought her to his office. The moment she entered his office, Tammy sat down on the sofa and said to the manager, "Show me all your male staff members. I want their photos."The manager was confused. "Miss, what do you want them for?""A person of your standing shouldn't be

    "Why is Avery Tate looking for me?" he thought.Looking at her cold expression, it did not seem like she was looking for him for pleasure!"Ryan." Avery placed a stack of cash and a bottle of medication in front of him. "If you properly answer my questions and tell me what I want to know, this money is yours. If you don't cooperate, this bottle of medicine will shut you up forever."Ryan was terrified. He pointed to the black bottle and stuttered, "W-What medicine is this?""A poison. Once you consume it, you'll die immediately. The most important thing is that the coroner will not detect this poison. They'll say you suffocated from over-excitement. No one will suspect a thing." Avery's tone was calm and light.Ryan was so frightened, that his face grew pale. He immediately knelt on the ground. "Miss Tate. What do you want to know? Ask all you want, but I'm only a lowly staff member. I don't know much!"Avery saw how Ryan was utterly disarmed, so she swiftly asked, "When I was tr

    Avery reached the PR department.Her arrival stunned everyone.Everyone turned to look at her, not daring to breathe. Although they did not know why she was there, from the expression on her face, they could guess that she did not come with friendly intentions.Avery looked at them all and asked, "Is Nora not here yet?""She usually arrives on the dot." A staff member looked at the time. "She should be here soon."Speak of the devil.Nora entered the PR department wearing sky-high heels and carrying an LV bag. Seeing a crowd surrounding the entrance, she walked over.The moment she saw Avery, her nosy expression dissolved.Perhaps because Chelsea was not there yet, a sense of panic overwhelmed her."What if Avery is looking for trouble? I'm alone, and I'm no match for her!" thought Nora."Miss Tate, Nora is here!" someone said.Avery turned around.When she saw Nora, her eyes filled with cold disgust."Avery, were you looking for me?" Nora forced a smile. "You're here earl

    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.
