"I will only believe what I see and hear." Elliot was unmoved as he listened to her cry.In the past, he would always compromise with her unconditionally as long as her eyes turned red.The present situation happened only because he was too soft-hearted and had indulged her countless whims.He had given up everything, and her plan would no longer succeed."What did you see? And what did you hear?" Avery screamed hysterically. "The reality is that whatever you saw or heard was biased! I won't break up with you! Just wait a few more days and I'll give you a proper explanation!"In the past, he might have listened to her and given her a few more days, but at that point, he was in no mood to wait even a few hours, let alone a few days."Return to the Aryadelle as soon you're done with whatever it is you're doing. Don't forget that your two children are still waiting for you," Elliot said before hanging up.Avery was disheartened when she heard the beeping sound of the ended call!I

"It's only six o'clock in the morning where your mother is. You can call her in another hour," Mrs. Cooper said reassuringly. "Your mother is out on a job and she'll come back once she finishes it.""What's going to happen with Robert and if mommy doesn't come back?" Layla felt frustrated all of a sudden.Robert immediately burst into tears.Mrs. Cooper picked Robert up and tried to check why he was crying.A car pulled up outside the courtyard.Layla saw it and went outside immediately.Mike got out of the car and came up to them."Uncle Mike!" Layla cried and ran over!Mike frowned, walked up to Layla, and picked her up. "Don't cry, Layla! What's the matter?""I miss Mommy and Daddy." She reached up to rub her eyes."Isn't your dad at home?" Mike remembered seeing Elliot when he came over the previous night.However, the two men did not speak much because Mike did not say anything to him."He's gone, and we can't reach his phone either." Layla pouted. "Mrs. Cooper said my

"In that case, just be frank with him!" said Mike raising his voice. "Tell him that Shea is still alive, let him worry and suffer! It's better than letting him hate you!""I can't get through to him. I haven't been able to get through to him since last night. I've been calling him until now. He probably won't use this number again." She spoke in a hoarse and nasal voice without trying to hide her helplessness and grief. "Mike, I feel like my heart is dead.""Like hell it is! Even if he is your life, you still have three children!" Mike snapped. "When is Shea's surgery? Is it scheduled yet?""Tomorrow, if all goes well." She took a deep breath and said, "I talked to Shea last night. She's just as innocent and kind as she always was. She misses Elliot dearly, and I promised her I'd bring her to meet him if her operation is successful. But I can't contact Elliot anymore...""You might not be able to contact him, but perhaps someone else can. In the meantime, take a deep breath and cal

"Yes. Telling him the truth is better than allowing Avery to bear the burden by herself.""Why the hell didn't you tell me earlier!" Chad smashed the glass onto the ground and roared, "You knew all along, didn't you? Why didn't you tell me earlier? You son of a—!"Mike's face turned red after he was yelled at. "Avery has her reasons, and I'll always follow them—""Get out!" Chad was extremely angry and clenched his fists tightly.Did none of them feel that it was too late to be telling the truth?"Why are you blowing up at me? You can contact Elliot, right? If you can't get through to his phone, you can always send him an email... He couldn't have just stopped using all his social accounts." Mike tried to calm Chad down without sounding angry or annoyed."What is he supposed to do if we tell him about Shea?! He's already transferred the shares! You and Avery are both idiots!" Chad could bear it any longer and swung his fist at Mike's face!"Jeez, why did you hit me for that?! Yo

When Avery came to the hospital in the morning, Wesley saw that her eyes were swollen and chatted with her for a moment.Adrian could clearly hear their conversation.Avery immediately shook her head. "No. I broke up with Elliot because I didn't tell him that I found Shea. He didn't know why I brought you here, so he got angry.""Then how can I make him not angry?" Adrian asked.His question was simple and direct, but it was enough to move Avery.She had no answer to the question of what should be done to make Elliot not angry."Adrian, you must not transfer the shares he gave you to Henry and Cole." She sat beside the hospital bed and said to him, "The shares are worth a lot of money, and those two men won't treat you any better even if you gave it to them. They might even use the money to do bad things."Adrian nodded after listening to her words. "Then will it be okay if I transfer it to you?"Avery shook her head. "We'll talk about it after the operation. I can only hope th

"She neither remembered her male partner, nor the four little monkeys she gave birth to, least of all the female monkey. After the treatment, she made new friends, got along well with other monkeys, and even gained a lot of weight."Gary's eyes were glowing, "We plan to promote this kind of treatment to the masses. Of course, the cost will be very high, and it's only for the rich. After all, this technology was developed by our team after a lot of research.""Why are you telling me this?" Elliot raised an eyebrow at him. "Are you trying to insult me by comparing me to monkeys?"Gary smiled and shook his head. "Look at you. How could you suspect me of having such intentions? I brought you here to tell you about this new accomplishment of mine!""I don't think your new achievement is going to make a lot of money," said Elliot, offering his opinion. "The rich cherish their lives tremendously. Who would want to gamble with their memories? Don't you think it'd be ridiculous if the treat

The floodgates opened, and tears streamed down Avery's face as she looked at her son's stern and serious face. Wesley immediately pulled Hayden aside."That's no way to be speaking to your mother, Hayden," Wesley whispered, "Don't you want Shea to survive?""Of course I do, but that has nothing to do with Elliot! I hate him, but I don't want to see him reduced to this!" Hayden's eyes were slightly red. "My goal is to defeat him. How am I supposed to achieve that now that he's lost everything!"Wesley hugged Hayden after understanding what the boy's thoughts were."I understand how you feel, but don't blame your mother for this. She's been feeling sadder than anyone else these past couple of days," Wesley said hoarsely. "She never forced your father into giving up everything. She'll never do something like that. Your dad made this decision because he felt provoked. There's a whole lot of stuff that is beyond our control. You're still young, so you may not understand that."Avery

"I don't know. I'll ask Chad later, and I'll let you know once I get the lawyer's contact information." Mike calmed her down immediately. "Don't get so emotional in front of the children.""Why didn't you say that earlier?" Avery sniffled and said bitterly, "I can't keep calm and think about others like I used to."She had lost herself when Elliot left, and the most unforgettable pain she had ever experienced was when she had lost him."Do you regret it?" Mike asked. "If you'd told him the truth earlier, maybe—""If I told him the truth earlier, things would go another way," Avery said. "But what if it ended up getting even worse? Finding him is better than just sitting here regretting everything.""You haven't slept for a few days now, right? Just look at how exhausted you look. If this goes on, Elliot might not recognize you even if you do manage to find him," Mike teased."Why wouldn't he? Even if he doesn't remember my face, he'll still remember my voice?" she said stubbornly
