Avery also felt that it was quite strange.Avery asked Jed about it at that time, but Jed said that it wouldn't cause her to lose consciousness.Avery trusted him, and she did not notice how much of it he used.Even when Jed told her that she needed to repeat medical imaging, she also believed him, even though she found it to be quite strange.This was why Avery had no answers to William's questions."What was Jed trying to do? With his expertise, he would not commit such a rookie mistake," said William."William, do you actually think that something is wrong with Jed?" asked Avery.Avery could feel a wave of pain emanating from her head.Before the surgery, Avery never felt discomfort. Avery did not believe that Jed would harm her when she was unconscious.But Avery could not justify what Jed did."William, I don't know why he did that, but I'm not feeling any discomfort as of yet. I don't think there's any problem with him," said Avery."Let's start with a full-body check-

After ordering, Lilith turned to Adrian and said, "Avery's company is in some deep trouble. I think she must need a large amount of money. Adrian, you are the current boss of the Sterling Group, do your job. Get some money for Avery!""Okay! But what am I supposed to do?" asked Adrian."Make a call to Ben, and tell him that you are interested in investing in Tate industries… you know what, just tell him that you want to give some money to Avery Tate. If you tell him that, he would surely understand. Plus you are his boss, he must listen to whatever you say. Also, I think he is one of the people who wants to help her the most," explained Lilith.Adrian nodded and said, "I don't have his number.""I do! Do you remember what I told you to say?" asked Lilith as she opened her phone, scrolled to the list of numbers that were blacklisted, and read out Ben's number to Adrian."Tell him that I'm planning on giving Avery money," said Adrian."Bingo! After the calls get through, just say t

"I understand," replied Ben, it's been a long time since anybody had dared to give Ben a direct order. Even when Elliot was here, he was never like this.However, Ben was not angry, he felt this was what he owed Lilith."By the way… could you at least unblock me?" asked Ben.After a slight pause, Ben continued, "I'll talk to Mike later. If there's anything else he needs, it would be easier for me to communicate with you.""That would depend on my mood after I finish eating," said Lilith as she hung up the call.Lilith passed the phone back to Adrian and let out a sigh of relief.Hayden nonchalantly said, "Actually there's a silver lining even if the company goes bankrupt, at least my mother would not have to be so tired."Hayden had always known about the problem with Tate Industries, but he wasn't worried.Hayden always felt that it was better that way, at least his mother could finally rest."But both you and your sister are still in school! And you have a brother that is ye

Nothing was worth Elliot's life. Avery's head started to throb again."Avery, I heard that Elliot's new Ylore wife is really beautiful. Are you not scared that he would choose her over you? Even when Jun said that he loved me the most, I would still catch him scrolling through other women's social media pages," asked Tammy."If he really left me, it would hurt me less," replied Avery."You're right, if he leaves you, it would mean that he isn't worth being sad over," said Tammy.Perhaps it was because of this very phone call that Avery's dreams were haunted by the imagery of Elliot leaving her for Ruby and staying at Ylore, refusing to come back to her.In her dreams, Ruby was pregnant with Elliot's baby and they seemed to be content with their lives. Avery could only stay at Aryadelle waiting for Elliot, she waited until all her hair turned white but Elliot was still nowhere to be found.Until the very bitter end, she was still waiting for him on her death bed.Avery woke up

Elliot was taken aback by how sudden the news was, after a slight pause, he finally said, "Okay.""Uhm, I was overjoyed when I heard the news. I wanted to tell you yesterday. But it was so late when you came back home. I was afraid that the news might affect you, that's why I waited until morning. I think we should go to father's house, and tell him the good news after breakfast," said Ruby."Okay."After breakfast, both of them drove towards Gary's house.When both of them walked in, they saw Gary sitting in his chair with an IV in his arm."Dad, how are you feeling? Did the doctor tell you how many more IVs you need?" asked Ruby as she walked over to her father and took his hand."Today is the last time. I have to go for another check-up afterward. Why are both of you here together? Is there something you want to tell me?" asked Gary.Ruby blushed as she said, "It's not like we never come to see you together! The reason we don't come together so often is that Elliot is too bus

"Hahaha! Wesley, what do you think of Shea?" asked Avery."Why are you asking? Do you think that I stand a chance with her?" asked Wesley.Avery's smile disappeared as she said, "Why not? As long as you and Shea are willing to try, anything would be possible. I could see how much you cared for her before the whole incident.""But I'm satisfied as long as I can be by her side, as her friend," said Wesley."Wesley, why don't you ask Shea when she gets better? If she is willing to marry you, and you don't think of her as a liability," said Avery."Why would I think of her as a liability?" interrupted Wesley."If not, you can just wait for her. Let her decide. Is this your first time? Why do you seem so … slow?" asked Avery.Wesley blushed.At the same time, at Ylore, a gigantic party was being thrown by the Goulds.Ruby was always tailed by a bodyguard since she was pregnant.The bodyguard was no other than Paul.Paul knew how to fight and he has known Ruby ever since they were

'I thought she left? Why is she still here?' thought Elliot.About half a month ago, Jed was poisoned, just as his girlfriend came.She, of course, did not take Jed's death well. But she still completed the whole funeral and cremated Jed's body.Elliot even sent his people to escort both her and Jed's remains to the airport.Elliot thought that she had left.However, Elliot was sure that the waitress he saw was the same woman that claimed to be Jed's girlfriend.The only possible explanation was that she came back.As for why she's back, it could only be for revenge.Elliot immediately walked toward Gary's room. Before he could get close a long screech rang throughout the entire house.The screech was quickly covered by screams of man and woman, mixed together.As Elliot finally walked into the room, he saw Gary laying on the sofa with a dagger plunged deep into his chest.As for Jed's girlfriend, she was laying on the ground, coughing up blood."Mr. Foster! Thank god, you

"The body has been dealt with. With the number of guests here today, we are scared that they might see something," replied the bodyguard.Paul could not believe it.It wasn't long before the ambulance arrived and Gary was brought down with a stretcher into the ambulance.Who would've thought that a party would be ended by Gary being attacked?After Elliot sent the guests away, he wanted to drive Ruby home."Is my father going to be okay? How did she sneak into the party?" asked Ruby."Your father is safe. The dagger missed his heart," said Elliot as he opened the door for Ruby to get in."Elliot, I want to go to the hospital," said Ruby.Ruby could not help but be scared for her father. He just got out of the hospital after a bad fall, and now he was stabbed."Even if you are at the hospital, there's not much you can do. Go back to the house, wait until he wakes up, then we can go," said Elliot."Okay, are they waiting for you? I can go back by myself. You stay here with your
