Elliot was not going to die! Neither was she! She would not give in to Cole's plans!After collecting herself, she came to the inpatient unit. Mike and the children had just left Shea's ward. "Mommy!" Layla saw Avery and ran toward her. Avery opened her arms wide, hugging her daughter in her arms."Mommy, I missed you so much! Do you miss me?" Layla said coquettishly in Avery's arms."Of course, I did. If you two hadn't returned, I would have gone to you." Avery kissed Layla on the cheek."Mommy, we saw Shea. She knows that Daddy isn't her brother. She cried, but we coaxed her." Layla recounted to Avery what had happened. "When Shea gets discharged, let her stay with us!""Sure! But I have to go look for your Daddy first," Avery said to her children truthfully. "I'm going to go to Ylore. Whether I can find your father or not, I will return once per month."Layla pouted. "If you only come back once per month. That means you'll only be back twelve times in one year. What if you s
"Fine, fine, you're right, but are you sure you want to go to Ylore?" Mike's expression turned serious. "That country isn't safe!""I've checked up on it. It's not as scary as you think. Don't talk about this in front of the children." Avery was afraid that the children would worry."Okay. I'll shut up. Anyway, just stay safe.""I'll take the bodyguard along with me. I'm there to look for Elliot, not seeking death."Mike nodded. "If you could get him back, I think you two need to reflect upon this issue. If you two are going to fight so badly every time, you two might be able to take it, but could the children take it? Could your friends, me, for example, take it?""It's not that we both want to fight. Do you think we feel good about it?""Then, stop fighting! What's wrong with giving up shares? It's for Adrian that idiot, not for Cole. Chad said that Elliot also has a lot of other estates. There would be no problem in raising the three children and you. If I think about it, you
"I called a media company to ask for their source. They said that it was an insider source. I asked who it was, and they said that they heard it from someone." Chad was breathing heavily. "They saw Aryadelle Morning publishing this article, so they went ahead and published one too. Aryadelle Morning's source was from their reporter based in Ylore."Chad did not want to believe the news, but when he heard that the source was from Ylore, he was thunderstruck!"From what you're saying, you mean the news is real?" Mike's face turned blue. He could not believe what he was hearing.Although Avery did not follow them back to Aryadelle, once this news spreads, she would soon find out about it."She has been so focused on looking for Elliot. How can she accept such bad news?" thought Mike."I can't confirm the news till I see Mr. Foster's body," Chad said with difficulty. "But Mr. Foster might really be at Ylore. Now that I heard the news came from Ylore, I'm a little panicked.""Calm dow
What appeared was news about Elliot in Aryadelle. Mike suddenly had the idea to enter Gary's name. Instantly, a series of related news appeared.The latest news about Gary was him in a black suit at the florist buying a bouquet.He looked like he was going to attend a funeral. "Is he going to attend Elliot's funeral?" thought Mike. Mike looked at the time the news was published. It was the day before, so Elliot died the day before and the news of his death spread to Aryadelle on that day…Mike screenshot the news article and sent it to Chad.Chad replied with a long series of ellipsis.When Ben saw the news, he immediately bought a plane ticket to Ylore.Tammy, on the other hand, immediately called Avery. At that time, it was midnight in Bridgedale. Avery had taken half a sleeping pill. She was sleeping rather soundly.Tammy could not reach Avery on the first try. She was extremely worried, so she called her again.With something so huge like this happening, Tammy had to le
In Aryadelle, once the news of Elliot's death spread, everyone was talking about it.Eric did not tell Layla about this, but Layla overheard people talking about it when she was in the washroom.She came out of the washroom and approached Eric. She could not hide the sadness on her face."Is Daddy dead?"Eric was suddenly taken aback. He did not know how to answer this question."I heard two ladies talking about Daddy's death." Layla's were red. "Why did he die? I don't want him to die!"Eric immediately hugged her and headed to the car."Layla, we don’t know if this is true or not. The news came from abroad. Your Mommy is already going to check on this. Once we have more accurate news, I'll tell you."Layla's tears fell. "I don't want Daddy to die. Although he always fights with Mommy, he treats me well. He also treats Mommy well. If not, he would not have always given in to Mommy…""Hmm. I know he is a good man. Don't cry. What if he is fine? Let's wait for news from your Mo
"I don't even remember your brothers' mother. How could I remember yours? Stop with your delusions. When I was younger, I only played with the cheapest whores. If you're going to acknowledge someone as your mother, nothing good will come out of it. On the contrary, you will be sucked dry by your trash of a mother!"Lilith's heart turned cold when she heard what Nathan said."Everyone else has the right to hate me, except Peter and you! If it was not for me, do you think the two of you could survive up till now?" Up till that point, Nathan still thought that he did nothing wrong with his two children."Visitation time is up." The guards said and took Nathan away.Lilith looked at Nathan's slightly hunched back. Her eyes became wet involuntarily. He was no longer the proud, arrogant, intimidating man of her youth. He was old.He was not a competent father. He had never loved her as a normal father would. However, she could not deny that he had brought her up.When she said that she
"Aunt Helen, no. I never want to use the child to get his money. It was all an accident." Lilith felt like she was receiving judgment.She never had that sort of ambition."You two, a single man and woman, spending time under one roof. Of course, accidents were bound to happen. Hahaha!" Helen could not hide her delight. "You are Elliot's sister. His father and I will never treat you badly. I know you suffered a lot in the past. We will care for you like our daughter."Lilith looked at Leon and Helen's kind expression. She wanted to say something but she could not bring herself to say it.She had never felt such warmth from a parental figure. She was engrossed in the feeling and reluctant to pull herself away from it. She knew that it was not good, but she could not control herself.At Ylore, after a few tries, Ben finally found one of Gary's men."Mr. Foster has died in a car crash.""A car crash? Are you sure it was an accident and not murder?" Ben was in a fit of rage. "Get Ga
They came down from the mountain and sure enough it started to rain heavily.The skies were dark. It was only three in the afternoon, yet the skies were as dark as the skies at the end of the world.Ben looked at the rain pelting the window. His eyes turned wet.It was summer at that moment. A body would rot in less than a week. On top of that, there was such a huge storm. Forget a week, the body would surely be ruined today.Ben's phone rang and he came out from his grieving. He took his phone out and wiped away his tears.He answered the call and Avery's voice came from the other side. "Ben, where are you? Have you gotten news about Elliot? I just got off the plane. I'm coming to look for you now.""Wait for me at the airport. I'll come to pick you up." Ben quickly collected his emotions and thought about how to console her.If she knew that Elliot had an accident in the mountains and that they could not find his body, she would surely lose it.…Avery was standing at the en
