"I have analyzed it seriously before." Sebastian was afraid that Avery would not believe him, so he said in a low and mysterious voice, "My father is seventy years old this year. When he found a new girlfriend, they would spend all day together. He only had eyes for her, and even when he went to Ylore he took her along."Avery listened attentively, not interrupting him."My father is addicted to women. Although he was also quite ambitious, the foundation of MediLove Pharmaceutical was set by my two uncles. Perhaps because my father doesn't work much, so his body is still in a good condition, whereas my two uncles' health was ruined," Sebastian said. "I'm only telling you this. Don't tell anyone else."Avery blinked. "All these things that you told me are completely useless to me.""How is it useless? I'm trying to eliminate the possibilities. My father surely did not kidnap Elliot. He doesn't like men. He even hates them." Sebastian thought that the information that he provided was

Some of the students yelled and escaped. The bolder ones stood by the side to watch it unfold.Leah's head snapped to the side from the force of the blow, and Layla saw all of this. She did not think and made to rush over.The bodyguard saw that Layla was about to go over, and he immediately stopped her and made his way to Leah."Shut up and follow me!" Leah's mother reprimanded her daughter in public. "I have had enough of you! If I let you continue to be so wild, you might not even know who you are anymore!"Leah clutched her burning cheek. She saw the children surrounding her from the corner of her eyes.As a schoolteacher, at that moment, she was completely embarrassed."What identity?" Leah looked at her mother with teary eyes. "I'm my own person.""Leah, what do you mean by this? Are you going up against me?" Mrs. Kennedy was disappointed when she noticed her daughter disobeying her. "Tell me now, in front of everyone. Tell me, are you going up against me!"Her yells attr

"Your Ms. Kennedy is not missing her mother, she is missing her family's money," George said to Layla.Leah looked up and glared at him before hurrying out of the school gates."Uncle George, you've crossed a line," Layla said and followed Leah. "Let's send Ms. Kennedy home!""Layla, let's not interfere. If we follow her, we might affect her ability to reconcile with her mother." George was angry at Mrs. Kennedy for what she had said about him a moment ago. "Her mother twists facts and has a dirty mouth. I'm afraid if I see her again, I will attack her."Layla replied, "Okay, then! I only feel bad for her. She looked so sad with how she was crying. If I was beaten by my mother—""How could your mother possibly beat you? Don't compare your mother to her mother. They are different." George brought Layla out of school and sent her to the car."Uncle George, after you send me home, go see Ms. Kennedy! If you don't want to go, why don't you call her and ask her if she is alright?"Ge

"Don't compare Avery to other women! You don't know how brilliant Avery is. I know her. She might even be able to cure my brother's sickness." Sebastian got in the car and his assistant followed him closely."Since Avery could cure your brother's sickness, why didn't Old Mr. Jennings hire her to cure him? Wasn't your brother his favorite child?" Sebastian's assistant asked.Sebastian smiled but said nothing.When Avery returned home, she had initially planned to take a nap in her bedroom. However, the moment she entered her room and saw the stack of information on the Jennings by her bed, she was instantly spirited.She took the stack to the window, and she sat down in her chair and started reading through the stack with the sunlight streaming through the window. Her meeting with Sebastian that day had piqued her interest in the Jennings family.Sebastian had said that his father disliked men, implying that his father could not have been the one to have taken Elliot. Avery still

"Isn't this Elliot?" Mike swallowed and passed the photos to Avery.Avery's eyes reddened instantly.She took over the photos and immediately recognized the bedridden Elliot. His eyes were shut. His face was void of color, many tubes were sticking out of him, and there was a flatline on the heart monitor. That meant that his heart had stopped beating. A non-beating heart meant that he was dead.Avery's hands were trembling furiously. Her tears fell.She held on and looked at the second photo.The second photo was… It was…Mike saw her shuddering and crying. He immediately snatched the photo."Don't look at it anymore!" Mike was afraid that if she were to continue crying, she would not be able to eat her dinner that night."Give it to me! Give me the photo!" Her eyes reddened, glimmering with tears. She glared at the photos in Mike's hands and yelled.Mike was so frightened by her yells that he did not dare to breathe and immediately returned the photos to her.Once she got

Mike headed over to the dining hall. He picked up the envelope from the floor and looked at the sender's details."What is going on? This says that it has been mailed from the trash station."Hayden walked over to Mike and looked at the information on the envelope. "The person who sent this photo to Mommy does not want her to find out who they are.""But this could mean that the photos have been sent from Bridgedale. Your Daddy was most likely taken to Bridgedale." Mike's mind was spinning quickly. "Could things have played out like your mother suspected? Could it have been done by the Jennings? But why would they want to take your dad away? And now that he is dead, they don't want to take responsibility for his death. So, they broke the news to your mom via an anonymous letter."Hayden said, "I don't know. I only know that it's useless that they sent these photos to Mommy. If Elliot was really cremated, why did they not send his ashes over?"Mike nodded. "Your Mommy will not rest
Chapter 1992
Mrs. Kennedy left in utter disappointment and anger.Natalie stood in front of Leah, looking down upon her. She said disappointedly, "Leah, you'll regret it. Your mother and father love you so much. The husband they find for you will surely not be from any ordinary family. You are their daughter. Why would they hurt you? You don't understand their sacrifice—""Natalie, when your parents urged you to get married, not once have I persuaded you to listen to them. You don't like other people interfering in your life, yet you want me to listen to my family and marry a man that I don't like?" Leah retorted.Natalie's lips moved a little before saying, "Although it's cheap talking about money, in this society, you can't do anything without money. If I were you, I would not go against my parents' orders. If you don't have the capability of earning much, then you should find a rich family where you can enjoy—""Natalie, I know I'm bad. I'm not as capable as you. I'm not cut out to earn big

"What is it?""Shares to the Sterling Group."Leah was speechless."Although it is not much, it is enough for me to be financially independent for the rest of my life." George immediately regretted his actions, and he wondered why he had offered someone he barely knew the shares. Why did he spill his secrets to her?"Why are you not saying anything?"Leah blushed unnaturally, "George, I never thought that bodyguards like you earn so much. The rich friends around me might not be doing as well as you."The Sterling Group's shares were very valuable.Apart from giving George some company shares, Elliot also paid George a considerable sum and that meant that he trusted George. In the future, if George had any trouble, he will surely help him."An ordinary bodyguard's pay is so-so. My pay is high because Mr. Foster is rich. Also, he is a very sentimental person. He pays attention to who is loyal or disloyal to him. If someone treats him nicely, he will repay them tenfold." George wa
