"Now we no longer need to deal with Natalie. Dean hates Natalie a lot right now. As long as Dean found Natalie, she would surely be tortured," Elliot analyzed the situation for Avery."Elliot, why didn't you tell me this earlier?""Because I'm not sure if Natalie would take the bait or not," Elliot explained. "She only transferred the money to me this morning. I planned to tell you when we met at night.""Hmm. How did you get her to take the bait?""When you told me that she was the one behind the incident in Ylore, I got someone to look for her parents. Even if Angela did not die, I would still seek revenge on Natalie," Elliot said slowly. "But she did not take the bait not completely because of her parents in Aryadelle. From the moment she failed to get rid of us, she had nowhere to run anymore.""Where are you right now?" Avery listened to Elliot's methodical tone, and she felt as if Elliot from the past had returned. The familiar sense of security made her let out a sigh of re

Perhaps it was because he had received plenty of bad news that day, but Dean's ability to bear the news had increased.When he heard what Sebastian said, he did not get angry which would worsen his condition.He looked straight ahead at the white wall in front of him. He froze. It was as if someone had cast a spell over him. Sebastian looked at his father in a daze, as if he saw his father suddenly aging ten years in front of him.Dean had never looked this depressed. "Dad, I don't think we can get this money back. You should just accept it!" Sebastian said once more, consoling his father, "How much did you borrow? We'll slowly pay it back."Dean snickered condescendingly, "Sebastian, I'm not dead yet! Even if Angela and Mary have died, it can't change the fact that Elliot is a dead man walking! I have never been afraid of anyone in my entire life! So, what if he is richer than me? I'll just fight with him!""Dad, you should recuperate. Your health is more important," Sebastia

"Bring it back to the children, say it was from you." Avery was thoughtful. She explained, "You have been missing for so long. The two children have been equally worried and sad, so you bringing them gifts will make them happy."Elliot had a look at the gifts that she bought. Avery bought Layla a pretty hair clip."Layla's liking hasn't changed in so many years." Elliot gently chuckled."She likes to be pretty. She likes jewelry. She is still young. Things like necklaces and bracelets are not suitable for her, so a hairclip is better.""Hmm." He placed the hair clip down and picked up the toy plane she bought for Robert. "There are a lot of these types of toys back in Aryadelle. I can buy it for him when I get back.""It doesn't take up space. Place it into your luggage," Avery said and headed to the master bedroom. "Have you booked your flight tickets?""Yes. The flight is tomorrow at eleven in the morning.""Okay. Once you're back home. If you don't feel comfortable, you hav

"Avery, three days later, we will be holding a funeral for Angela and Mary. Will you be attending?" Sebastian asked. "It's fine if you don't have the time.""Your father is holding a funeral for them?" Avery asked. "He should be loathing Angela to death. Why is he helping her with a funeral?""I don't know." Sebastian indeed did not know the reason. Besides, he no longer wanted to reveal Dean's plans to Avery. At that moment, the Jennings were more than one billion dollars in debt. He did not dare to imagine this number."He could not just go up against his father and help Avery and Elliot."Oh… we'll see about it three days later!" Avery thought for a while. "Is your father still alright?""Not great. He borrowed more than one billion from the bank.""Sebastian, look on the bright side. That is his debt. That isn't your debt. You don't have to help him pay it back." Other than comforting him, Avery did not know what else to say, because she would not possibly return the money to

Previously, Lilith had never called out to Elliot this affectionately.Back then, she had always felt that Elliot was invincible. After this incident, she realized that he was just a normal person of flesh and blood.Elliot never thought that she would call out to him this affectionately. He was not used to it.Elliot walked over to them. Before he could say anything, Ben called him in the same affectionate manner.Elliot was speechless."He is my brother! Not yours!" Lilith glared at Ben. "I haven't married you yet!""Lilith, you have already agreed to my marriage proposal, you will marry me sooner or later." Ben was a little reluctant. "You said that after you found Elliot, you will marry me. Now that he is back. When are we going to have the wedding?"Elliot asked, "Are the preparations in order?""Yes! My parents organized it," Ben explained. "I should be the one preparing the wedding, but after your incident, I really didn't have the mood to do it.""Since it's already pr

"You guys should never say such a thing in front of Avery." Lilith felt that Avery was under a lot of pressure. "She didn't even return together with Elliot, so she certainly must be more anxious about this than anybody else.""I haven't been in contact with her since I returned to the country. I know that she's busy, so I didn't dare to disturb her," said Ben, then he looked at Elliot. "Elliot, I feel that you're having quite a good mental state now. In comparison to a while ago, you look like you have put on a little weight as well. Avery has been taking quite good care of you!"Lilith said, "Did he put on a little weight? I feel that he is much thinner than before.""That's because you haven't seen how he looked when Avery had just brought him back. He was extremely thin at that time and just looked a little scary," Ben exaggerated, "I didn't dare to tell you back then as I was afraid that you'll be heartbroken."Lilith felt a lump in her throat. "Alright. Elliot is back now.

"Tammy, there's no need for you to poke fun at Elliot. He has escaped death by a hair's breadth, so his mindset certainly has changed. Also, I feel the reason Elliot didn't sweet talk Avery certainly is that he does more."Everyone looked toward him."Oh… I mean Elliot is a man of action. He must have taken good care of Avery. Otherwise, could Avery be so devoted to him?" said Jun. He then picked up his daughter, Tiffany, as he wanted to bring her to the kitchen to have some food.Tiffany huffed and pushed him away."I don't want to play with you! I want to play with Layla, Robert, and Kiara!"Jun was a little saddened after his daughter rejected him.At that moment, Elliot's bodyguard walked in while carrying Elliot's luggage.Elliot took the bag from his bodyguard and opened it up.It was filled with presents.The four children immediately surrounded the bag."Hmph! I think you just want to get some presents!" Jun could not help but laugh when he saw his daughter putting bo

Avery said, "Didn't you say that you didn't have the time to take your phone out since you landed? How did you hear that Dean has been discharged?"Elliot said, "When you video-called me, the text from Chad happened to pop up. I happened to see that sentence.""Is it so coincidental?""Mm-hmm. It's really a coincidence. Could you be thinking that I didn't contact you after I got off the plane but I contacted someone else?" Elliot could already sense her jealousy through the phone."Alright. I'll believe you then," Avery said while leaning against the headboard. "I won't attend Angela's funeral. Don't worry.""Mm-hmm. Layla and Robert have grown up a little.""Our children are not the only ones who have grown up, I saw that Tiffany and Kiara have grown up as well." Avery smiled "We've also grown older!""As long as we're still young at heart, we won't be old." Elliot did not want to admit that he has gotten older, much less admit that Avery has gotten older.Just like how no mat
