Elliot immediately helped her to the bathroom.After her nausea passed, her face turned pale."Elliot, I'm sorry! I couldn't hold back just now." She wiped the sweat from her face with a towel, and then asked, "Who did you talk to on the phone just now? What happened? You look bad.""You don't always have to apologize to me." Elliot strode towards the living room.Ruby followed him to the living room."Elliot, did my father lose his temper with you?" Ruby guessed, "He felt that the people around him weren't protecting him, so he lost his temper with everyone, and he also scolded Paul...""The woman who assassinated your father was hidden by me before, but today, Paul found her." Elliot thought it necessary to explain the matter to her, "So your father stopped all my work."Ruby's face suddenly turned black: "My father Is blaming you... I'll go and plead to him for forgiveness..."Elliot interrupted her, "Do you think that's going to work?"Ruby looked at his gloomy face, and f
Elliot sat on the dining chair, eating quietly as usual.She couldn't tell what qualities he had that made her deeply fascinated by him.She wanted to follow him wherever he went, but he didn't want her to."Miss, let's go eat!" The nanny helped her up from the sofa. "Otherwise, the food will be cold later. After dinner, you can have a good chat.""Did you overhear our conversation just now?" Ruby asked in a low voice.The nanny nodded."Don't say it to anyone else.""Don't worry, miss, I won't say anything."In Aryadelle, Tate Industries held a press conference and officially announced that it would accept Sterling Group as a shareholder.The purpose of this in-depth cooperation between the two parties was not only because Tate Industries needed a capital injection to overcome the difficulties, but also because the Sterling Group wanted to expand into different fields.On the computer screen of Wonder Technologies, Wanda was broadcasting the conference live.As the represen
"Elliot is no longer the president of the Sterling Group, didn't you know that?" Another reporter said, "Now the boss of the Sterling Group is Adrian. Do you want to embarrass him when you tell him to connect with Elliot?""Ah...I saw that Mr. Schaffer was discussing with Elliot, so I thought..." The reporter who asked the first question blushed embarrassedly.He thought that although the Sterling Group was not Elliot's by name, it was still Elliot's in reality.Otherwise, why would Ben chat with Elliot at the press conference?"I would like to ask President Tate to continue to explain the next layout of Tate Industries! Especially regarding the pricing of its products, as well as the upcoming developmental issues. I believe that everyone is very concerned about them." Another reporter put the topic back on track.Avery took a sip of water, adjusted her composure, and said again: "About our previous products, the pricing will be lowered. After the press conference, everyone will b
"Okay. I'll call her at night." She suddenly thought of a question, "Were you messaging Elliot at that time?""Yes! I secretly took a picture of you and sent it to him.""What did he say?" There was a sparkle in her eyes."He said you were beautiful.""You're lying to me. He wouldn't talk like that." Avery didn't believe it at all."Then what do you think he would say when he saw your photo?" Ben asked.Avery thought for a while and said, "He probably won't say anything about my photos.""Hahahaha! You still know him. Even if he didn't say anything.""If it was before, I might be able to guess what he was thinking, but now, I can't guess it anymore." Although she couldn't guess, she didn't care much.As long as he comes back to her side, that would be enough.The two came out of the hotel, got into the same car, and went to Tate Industries together.In Ylore, Elliot brought Ruby to the banquet hosted by Edward.Today is the day Edward's grandson was born. Ruby entered the b
In Aryadelle, after Avery had dinner, she took Robert for a walk in the community.She was supposed to take Layla out for a walk, but Layla needed to go for extra classes.After the summer vacation, an exam was arranged in the school, so Layla's ranking dropped.Without waiting for Avery to talk to Layla, Layla took the initiative to ask for tutoring.She used to worry that her child would ignore learning, but she didn't expect her worries to be completely unnecessary."Boss, when you were in Ylore, you said to give me a bonus after we return." The bodyguard followed Avery and strolled, "I didn't plan to say it because your company was about to go bankrupt before? However, you have now invested in the Sterling Group..."Avery laughed, "I've been too busy these days, I forgot. Even if I'm going to go bankrupt, the bonus that should be given to you is still there."With that, she took out her mobile phone and directly transferred a large sum of money to the bodyguard.The bodygua
"I've been working out recently, but the trainer that Hayden got me is so strict! First, I must follow the meal plan she set for me. Then, she stares at me every day when I exercise to ensure I'm not slacking off. Do you know why she is so strict with me?" Lilith smiled bitterly and explained, "Because Hayden promised to give her a tenfold raise if I become famous."Avery replied, "Well, that's really a good way to compel her to take care of you.""Yeah. I didn't know Hayden had such a brilliant mind at such a young age.""Maybe he was born with it!"After the call, Avery went to find her bodyguard and Robert.She came to the fountain and saw Robert standing next to a pink kid's bicycle.The little guy grabbed the bicycle's handle with both hands, pouted, and stared at the bodyguard.Beside him stood a little girl screaming nervously at him.Yet, Robert was not afraid at all.The bodyguard then coaxed Robert, "Oh, my naughty little boy, this belongs to the little girl! Let's r
"Where are you? What are you doing? Are you free to video call now?" asked Avery.Elliot replied in a deep voice, "I'm taking a shower."She froze, then said, "Let's video call!"Avery immediately hung up the phone before Elliot could say anything and video-called him.And Elliot answered it.She was stunned when she saw him naked and standing in his bathroom.She instantly blushed and went blank, as she forgot what to say.She could not let the children see him like that, so she rushed to her bedroom with her phone.Her face turned even redder when she got into her bedroom.Avery used to be familiar with Elliot. However, she felt strange when she looked at him through her screen again."I brought Robert out for a walk just now." She paused to adjust her emotions and asked, "Why did you video call Mrs. Cooper first instead of me?"She could not help but be mad at him for no reason, although it was just a small matter."I just wanted to see Robert, and I used to call Mrs. Co
Avery was not asking but giving an order.She hung up the video call shortly after that.Elliot put the phone down, walked into the shower, and turned on the shower tap. Then, warm water slid along his hair and down his body.He was disturbed because she said she was coming to rescue him, just like how Jed's girlfriend wanted to take revenge for Jed.She did not hesitate even though she knew her effort might kill her.Elliot knew that if Jed had been alive, Jed would not have let his girlfriend risk her life to avenge his death.Elliot still remembered how Jed's girlfriend looked at him when he watched her get trampled on the ground by the bodyguard after she had attempted to assassinate Gary.Her eyes were very bright. Yet, there was no anger but only relief.Elliot decided to save her at that instance because the stubbornness in her eyes reminded him of Avery.He thought if he died in Ylore, Avery might be like Jed's girlfriend, seeking revenge on Gary for his death.Howeve
