The bodyguard saw Hayden pouncing at him fiercely, and he immediately fled.Ben and Chad held Hayden back to get him to calm down."Hayden, sit down. Your mother will be fine. She's a doctor. She knows how to save herself in extreme conditions. We have to believe in her." Chad pulled Hayden over to the chair and made him sit down.Ben took out a piece of tissue and passed it to Hayden."I'm with your Uncle Chad. Your mother will be fine. I don't know about your father…""I don't care about him. I only want Mommy to wake up!" Hayden only had Avery in his heart."But Layla and Robert care about him." Ben knew that Hayden did not like to hear that. "If they knew that something had happened to Elliot, they would surely be very sad. Now there's only you supporting the family, you—""Ben, let's not talk about this first. Let's wait for Avery to come out first!" Chad thought that this topic was too cruel for someone Hayden's age.Even if Elliot and Avery were to pass away, there was s
"I don't dare to give any judgment now, we have to see how she recovers," the doctor said. "Her body is weak. If she could survive past the next week, then it shouldn't be a problem."When Avery was pushed out, Chad saw the men's shirt that was wrapped around her.He lost it once more. "That's Mr. Foster's shirt! Ben, look at the cuffs. That's Mr. Foster's!Ben saw it clearly. He instantly understood why Chad had lost it because he was losing it too.Elliot took off his clothes for Avery to wear. That meant that they were in the underground cellar together.What happened after that? Why was Elliot gone? Who took him away?They hugged each other and sobbed.Next to them, Elliot's bodyguard and Avery's bodyguard leaned against each other and wept."I blame myself. I didn't protect my boss well," Elliot's bodyguard was extremely remorseful."I didn't protect my boss well too. I hope that she will come around. When she comes around, perhaps she can tell us where Elliot is."The n
The doctor thought that after he increased his volume, Avery would be able to hear him and reply to him.However, after what he said, Avery closed her eyes.A moment later, the doctor came out of the intensive care unit."Doctor, how is my mother doing?" Hayden said."Doctor, did she talk? Was she conscious? When can she be transferred to a normal ward?" Chad followed closely behind.The doctor smiled and replied, "She merely opened her eyes for a while before closing them again, but all readings show that she is no longer in any danger.""Then, why did she close her eyes again?" Chad was worried. "When will she come around again?""She could come around anytime," the doctor replied. "Only one or two of you should stay in the hospital. The others should head back and rest! When she wakes up, we should be able to transfer to the normal ward."At that, Ben let out a sigh of relief."Hayden, why don't you head back to the hotel to get some rest? The doctor said that your mother w
Even if Elliot was hugging her, she still felt uncontrollably cold. In the end, Elliot took off his shirt and put it on her.She sniffed his familiar scent and felt much better. Even with Elliot next to her, she still could not stop the fear and the despair.She was reluctant to die just like that. She finally could clear up the misunderstanding with Elliot. She wanted to return to the sun with Elliot. She wanted to live a good life with him and raise their children.In her dreams, she kept crying and calling out Elliot's name. However, in the end, she saw Elliot falling in front of her.Elliot gave her his clothes, so he froze to death.…In Aryadelle, Natalie caught wind of the news of Avery being found.Although Natalie was not in Ylore, she had always been paying attention to the situation.She had not heard of Avery being found on the day itself. She only found out about it the day they razed the building.She heard that they had only found Avery in the underground cellar
Natalie was furious. She wanted to smash her phone to pieces, but she held back.She took a deep breath and asked, "How is Holly's arrangement? She cannot appear in public in the future! Let alone in front of Elliot and Avery! If she gives me up, I'm finished!""Miss Jennings, don't worry. She promised me that she would never appear in front of anyone. If she does not hide away this time, she will surely be put to death.""Why is Avery so lucky?" Natalie gritted her teeth. "She has been starved for six days and yet she lives!""I, too, did not think that she would be able to survive! Looking at how skinny she is, I thought she would not be able to survive long! I wonder where Elliot is… maybe Avery knows about it.""Pay close attention to Avery's situation. See if you can bribe the medical staff in the hospital," Natalie instructed. "If you can find out where Elliot is, I will surely pay you handsomely!"At the hospital, when Avery woke up once more, the doctor immediately rushed
Avery did not heed the doctor's advice. The only thing she heard was that they had only rescued her and that they had not found Elliot.How did this happen? Elliot was trapped together with her. How did they only rescue her but not Elliot?After she was transferred to the normal ward, Ben and Chad stood by the side of the bed, looking at her hopefully.Her bodyguard suddenly knelt by the side of the bed with a thud."Miss Tate! I'm sorry! I didn't protect you well! Almost letting you die!" The bodyguard started crying.Ben and Chad looked at the bodyguard in astonishment.Avery turned her attention to him."Miss Tate! Thank goodness you're not dead! Thank goodness you survived! If not, I will die too!" The bodyguard wept and wiped away his tears.Chad glanced at Avery before reprimanding the bodyguard, "She just came out from the intensive care unit. She's barely awake, and yet you're so noisy. Aren't you afraid that you'll scare her until she passes out?"Ben's head hurt. "
"I'm not going home. I'm not going anywhere." Avery rejected Hayden's arrangement without hesitation. "I'm going to look for your father. I'm going to get him back!"Avery's voice was hoarse. She had lost control of her emotions.Ben patted Hayden on the shoulder. "Hayden, go back to the hotel and rest. We'll talk to Avery."Hayden did not want to leave Avery. He was afraid that he would lose her if he left her."Listen to me. Your mother must remain calm right now, but she has gotten all worked up after she found out that Elliot is missing. No matter what she says right now, we have to follow her." Ben pulled Hayden outside the ward and said in a low voice, "Go back with the bodyguard to the hotel and rest. Chad and I will surely convince her to get some rest.""I want to take Mommy back to Bridgedale to get treated," Hayden said, explaining his own intentions."Hayden, Aryadelle is Avery's home. Even if you wanted to get Avery treated, you will have to go to Aryadelle. Layla an
Avery's mind was filled with Elliot. She could barely think about anything else."Avery, did you clear your misunderstandings between each other in the underground cellar?" Ben looked at Elliot's shirt in her hand and asked."He said that he has always loved me…" Tears fell once more. Her voice was trembling. "Me too. Me too!"Ben's words were stuck in his throat. He wanted to say something else but felt it was unnecessary.At that moment, Elliot was nowhere to be found. No one knew if he was dead or alive. If he were to let her know that Elliot's love for her has never once wavered, it would only make her suffer more.Avery sobbed for a while and passed out due to her body still being weak.Ben and Chad came out from the ward. They took deep breaths."Ben, what should we do?" Chad was heartbroken. "If we can't find Mr. Foster, I don't think Avery would be able to recover from this.""I don't know what to do either," Ben's head hurt terribly. "I think that Elliot is not in Ylor
