Chapter 2032
Avery had not slept for the entire night either.She could not help but think back on all her memories with Elliot. The more she thought of it, the sadder she got. It was as if time had been paused. If Mike had not entered, she would have just lain there dreaming with her eyes open."Big H is still the best. I never thought of investigating Angela, but Hayden thought of it immediately." Mike sat down next to Avery's bed and said excitedly, "Do you know how Dean and Angela got acquainted?"Avery said, "Dean said they knew each other a long time ago.""Dean invested in Angela's company. Not only was this company not earning any money, but he also had to put quite a lot of money into it every year. However, Dean seemed to willingly just give Angela that much money every year. Why? Dean is a very pragmatic person. He would not even treat his own son that well, why was he being so nice to a woman?"Avery listened attentively, not interrupting him."Hayden found out about this company.

Mike was baffled. "So, because of a muted call, you two have such a huge misunderstanding, causing you two to hate each other for three years! This isn't the worst part. The worst part is that you gave up on Tate Industries and Elliot gave Tate Industries to Natalie! In the end, you two even almost died in her hands! What the hell! Who wouldn't be done with you two when they hear the truth!"Mike finished saying and realized that he might be a little harsh, and he immediately said, "It's all in the past. No need to cry about these matters. Even if your misunderstandings were not cleared, you two have already reconciled, right? What does this say about you two? This meant that no matter how big the challenge, you two will never stay apart."Avery did not say anything. She took clothes out of her closet and walked to the bathroom.Mike came out of her room and went to the living area. He saw a group of people standing outside the gate. Mike strode over.It was Sebastian.However, th

"Mike, didn't you say that you want to go catch up on sleep?" Avery realized that they did not get along well. She immediately got Mike to leave. "Go rest! I'll be at home today. I won't go out. You don't have to worry.""Okay then. I am indeed tired," Mike said. He walked over to Wilson and gave him some instructions. "Stay in the hall. Don't leave no matter who says what. As long as Sebastian is there, you'll be there. Watch him."Wilson replied loudly, "Understood!"Mike returned to his room to catch up on some sleep. Wilson stayed in the living area, staring at Sebastian as if he was afraid Sebastian was going to escape.Sebastian was feeling uneasy, but he was not planning to leave just like that.He sat down on the sofa and the nanny asked him if he wanted to drink anything."Water is just fine." Sebastian looked at Avery and said in confusion, "Did you not sleep last night? Your face is pale, your eyes are bloodshot. It is quite scary."Avery ignored his teasing.The nan

Although this issue seemed to have nothing to do with Elliot's abduction, Avery thought that she would be able to understand Dean better through this issue."You're half right. Those children that died for no reason were indeed not my father's biological children, but how could this matter possibly be hidden from him? DNA tests are so convenient. Those that were not his biological children were allowed to be born. I'm guessing he allowed them to be born, it would be as if he was taking care of a pet!"Avery was silent."What I am sure right now is that my brother and I are his biological children, Natalie too. If not, he would not have risked it for her." Sebastian continued, "My dad's body isn't as great as you think. If not, he would not have relied so much on Angela."Avery did not expect that Sebastian would bring Angela up by himself."Your father has invested in Angela's company. What is this company doing?" Avery asked nervously, "Sebastian, tell me what you know.""What d

Sebastian did not stay long at Avery's. After drinking water, he left soon after.When he got in the car, he called and gave his report to Dean. "Dad, Avery is doing well.""Oh, did she say what she is planning to do next?" Dean asked."I did ask her, but she seemed to be cautious of me. She asked whether you had sent me to get some information out of her," Sebastian said honestly. "Bobby attempted to assassinate her yesterday, which caused her bodyguard and her to not trust me. She rejected all the gifts I brought over today.""Hehe, did she mention Natalie?" Dean was not surprised at Sebastian's reply."She did," Sebastian replied monotonously. "She said Natalie was behind everything in Ylore. She even asked me if you were planning to make Natalie your heir.""Are you using Avery's question to get something out of me?" Dean could hear the intention behind it."Dad, you're worrying too much. She really asked me this. The reason she is concerned about this is that she feels that

Angela was silent for a while before sneering. "Avery, Sebastian has told us about you. You think that I'm holding Elliot in my company. Are you trying to investigate my company because you can't find anything on Dean? I wonder why you didn't also learn that my company has long shut down because of financial losses?"Avery was speechless.Shut down?Angela said, "Let's meet and talk! Right at the cafe near your house! Remember to bring my gift. I'll only talk to you once I see the gift."Then, she hung up.Avery was baffled.Angela's company was shut down? Then, where was Elliot?Sebastian had already confirmed it, why would this suddenly change? Did Sebastian lie to her or were there some secrets behind this?Avery returned to her room, changed, and headed out with Wilson. Apart from Wilson, she brought along ten other bodyguards. She followed the advice that Mike had given her the night before. The ten bodyguards were in plain clothes. They looked relaxed as if they were go

Avery looked at her bodyguards. She did indeed feel much safer. She put her gun back into her bag and followed Angela out of the cafe."Avery, you mentioned James Hough's diary. Is it fake? How could you lie to me?" Angela was furious that she had been lied to."It's not a complete lie." Avery took Angela to her car. They sat in the backseat while Wilson drove."Professor Hough did indeed have a habit of writing in his diary. He has more than ten notebooks, but they are all with Mrs. Hough." Avery glanced at Angela. "I only have a few of his lesson notes.""Avery, you're despicable. I knew that he would never mention me. Not even on paper. It is impossible." Angela had completely given up."Angela, Professor Hough had indeed mentioned you to us before." Avery took out a piece of yellowed paper from her back. "Have a look at yourself. I don't know if you can recognize his handwriting."Angela took the paper and looked at the paper. Her name, Angela Hills, was clearly written on it
Chapter 2039
It was just as Angela had said. The office doors were shut tight."Open your doors. I want to go in!" said Avery when they were both out of the car. "I don't have the keys! I have to get others…" Angela's mind was spinning."Then, call and get someone to come over immediately." Avery did not doubt Angela's words.Wilson noticed Angela's gaze. He said to Avery, "No need. I can open the doors!" Then, Wilson took his gun out and aimed it at the lock. He pulled the trigger!"With two loud bangs, the door opened!Angela was so frightened that she took a few steps back.Avery did not care about her. Once the door was opened, she entered the office.Wilson was holding onto Angela, following Avery."When did your company shut down?" Avery looked inside. The office equipment was still there, but there was no one to be seen."Quite some time ago! I can't remember when. I haven't been managing this company for a very long time. You know how much money it takes to do research. Dean is
