He was one of Nick's bodyguards.Avery looked at him and asked, "Do I look like somebody who smokes?" "I just think you look like somebody who could use a smoke," replied the bodyguard.Avery laughed and extended her hand, "If so, pass me one." The bodyguard passed her one of the cigarettes and lit it up for her, "Nick called me just now and told me to go back." "Alright, you can go now! I'll go back on my own," replied Avery as she tried to mimic the bodyguard and took a hit from the lit cigarette,The moment she inhaled the smoke, she started to cough vigorously.The bodyguard laughed and said, "Nobody takes such a large hit on their first try." Avery was upset that he was laughing at her, "I would like to see how good your first time with a scalpel would be." "Haha! Are you mad? Things between you and Elliot Foster seemed to be improving at a lightning pace," said the bodyguard as he noticed the hickey on her neck."No. After finishing, he just acted as if nothing had
If Gary was actually fast asleep from drinking too much, there was no way that the nanny could not incite any reaction from him.The nanny was worried because no matter how hard she tried, Gary seemed to be comatose and would not react to her. The only reassuring fact would be that Gary was still breathing.That was the reason the nanny did not immediately call for a doctor and instead came over to alert Ruby."Miss, where is Young Mister at?" asked the nanny, who could not seem to be able to find Christopher."He probably had too much to drink as well. I saw him down quite a lot of drinks in quick succession," explained Ruby."He probably got a little too happy seeing all his friends here. Miss, you don't have to be too worried, his breathing is still normal, I suspect that he has perhaps fallen into a deep slumber," said the nanny."Did you call for the doctor?" asked Ruby."No, should I?" "Yes, get one right now. Nothing can happen to father," said Ruby.Ruby was worried t
Elliot's words caused Avery to stop for a moment."I know Ruby must have asked you to do this, can't you even let me have my lunch first?" asked Avery, disappointed."Why must you leave after lunch?" asked Elliot.His every word and tone was expressing his desire for her to leave, now!"I'm hungry, I want to leave after eating! If I have to eat, what are you going to do? Throw me off the boat?" asked Avery, her fingers clenching deep into her palms.Avery was, of course, not hungry, and this lunch wasn't important at all. This was just Avery's way of protesting the fact that Elliot would use her to satisfy his own urges and go back to being Ruby's good old husband.Avery could not believe that the man in front of her was Elliot.Elliot didn't use to be like this, losing his memory seemed to change his entire personality. Even when Chelsea was vying for him, he was still firm and unwavering.Did the Goulds really change him?Avery could feel her mind racing, her thoughts clou
Elliot refused to talk anymore about Avery, so he stayed silent.Ruby, of course, did not press him for an answer, she smiled and said, "Elliot, did you know how worried I was when I heard something was wrong with father? Thank god you were by my side. I felt everything would work out with you by my side.""Nothing will happen to your father," said Elliot."I know, I'm not worried anymore. I just feel lucky that I can marry you, lucky that I get to be your wife."After the lifeguard saved Avery from the sea, they immediately started to do CPR.After Avery spat out the water, she finally woke up. The lifeguard asked Avery, "Miss do you want to go to the hospital?""I'm fin…" said Avery as she shook her head,But before she could finish her sentence, Avery suddenly came to a realization, she can't die. She still had kids at home waiting for her, she still had friends and family who loved her. There's more to life than love!Avery quickly got up."Miss, I'll go get a driver to
The bodyguards spoke strangely, which gave her a headache."I'm removing my makeup now." She answered patiently."Have you finished removing your makeup and packing your luggage?"Nick seemed to be particularly interested in her luggage."Why are you so interested in my luggage? I won't pack it today." She wanted him to give up. "My classmate is hospitalized here. We will leave together after he gets discharged."Nick suddenly lost interest. "I thought you would be pissed off today! Since you won't leave, I'll hang up!"Du…du… du…du… The call disconnected."He's impossible." Avery put down the phone and murmured to herself, "Why does he want me to leave today? Is something major going to happen today?"In Aryadelle.After Nathan's ashes were buried, Peter went back to Bridgedale.As soon as Peter left, Lilith immediately asked Ben, "How much money did he want for the gift?"Based on what she knew about Peter, it was impossible for him to leave so easily without getting the m
She quickly summarized the keywords: Balteen Sea, yacht, a shooting!Ruby's birthday party was being held today on the yacht on the Balteen Sea.So the shooting the doctor mentioned... must have happened at Ruby's birthday party!She immediately chased after the doctor, but she was one step too late.The two doctors entered the elevator, and the elevator doors closed quickly.Jed caught up with her: "Avery, why are you running?""They mentioned the shooting case just now, did you not hear that?" Her cheeks were flushed and her expression was solemn. "Elliot might be in danger!""You mean the shooting happened at Ruby's banquet?" Jed took her arm, "Don't be nervous... Do you have Elliot's phone number? Did you try calling him?""I do have his number, but he might not answer my call." She frowned, took out her mobile phone, and called Elliot.Just as she expected, the call went unanswered."Don't worry, didn't the doctor just go on a rescue mission? Maybe all the injured people
If Elliot was on the yacht, was it possible that his mother was also on that yacht? Thinking of this, he immediately picked up his mobile phone and dialed Avery.Avery answered the phone quickly."Mom, where are you now?""I'm in the hospital." Avery glanced at Jed and said to Hayden, "Mom has a classmate who has broken a bone and is hospitalized. I'm visiting him now.""Oh." Hayden was relieved, and at the same time, he asked in doubt, "What classmate?""He's a classmate from my graduate school. He happened to be traveling in Ylore and unfortunately broke a bone.""Got it." Hayden said after being silent for two seconds, "Mom, I'm going to start school soon."Avery apologized, "Hayden, I'm sorry! I can't take you to school in person. Let Uncle Mike take you there, alright? Mom will see you soon when I finish my stuff.""Yeah." Hayden knew that this would happen, but he still felt very disappointed.After hanging up the phone, Hayden clicked on the mouse, exited the news interf
At the same time, Gary also woke up.When he came to his senses, he was furious when he knew what had happened! Ruby was shot in the left scapula and had been sent to the nearest hospital for surgery to retrieve the bullet.Christopher and Elliot were outside the operating room, waiting for the operation to end.Of course, Christopher would not admit that the shooting was his own.But Gary didn't listen to his explanation at all.Gary slapped Christopher in front of everyone!"Why didn't you just kill me?" Gary's face was ashen, "If you had killed me, you could inherit my inheritance directly, wouldn't that be more convenient?!""Dad!" There was a clear palm print on Christopher's cheek, "I really didn't do it! Besides, I wouldn't dare kill you, I'm not an ungrateful bastard!"Seeing that he refused to admit it, Gary raised his hand, ready to give him another slap.Seeing this, Elliot blocked Gary's arm."Since he has said he didn't do it, stop being angry," Elliot said coldly
