"Elliot, go back to take a shower and change your clothes." Kevin looked at the blood on his white shirt and told him, "You've been through a tiring day, take a bath and get a good night's sleep. Ruby won't wake up for quite a while. You can come back to the hospital tomorrow morning to see her."Elliot got up from the chair and strode out of the hospital.Seeing Elliot's figure disappear from sight, the expression on Kevin's face suddenly became extremely gloomy.Today was Ruby's birthday, but Elliot and Avery were making out on the yacht where the banquet was held.In addition to not taking Ruby seriously, he was not taking the entire Gould family seriously.Kevin couldn't stop him from messing around with women outside, but on such an important occasion today, expressing complete disregard for the dignity of the Gould family annoyed Kevin very much indeed!Did he really think that the Gould family couldn't live without him?Kevin gritted his teeth, and his anger grew stronger

After a while, two cups of milk tea were delivered to them."Try it, the milk tea served in this restaurant is very delicious."Lilith took a sip. The taste felt similar to the milk tea from the milk tea shop outside.Due to the absence of common topics, the conversation was unsuccessful. Lilith finished drinking the milk tea in a short while."How did you get here?" the woman asked."I came by taxi.""I came by car. You can go back with me!" The woman picked up her bag and got up."Don't bother. I'll take a taxi." Lilith also picked up her bag and got up, "You really don't want to tell me your name?""There's nothing to say. There are so many women who like Ben, but he has never put me in his heart." The woman let out a faint smile and then walked away.Lilith watched her leave and murmured to herself. This woman was really queer. Did she ask her out just for a cup of milk tea?Taking a taxi back to Schaffer's house, Lilith suddenly felt a cramping pain in her abdomen.She

The black car went all the way down the road and eventually stopped at the gate of an abandoned factory in the suburbs.The time was near eleven at night. There were no street lights but only a yellowish light from the abandoned factory.That light set a strange and frightening tone for the factory and that gave Avery the shivers.She then saw a man standing in the factory while facing away from her.However, she could already tell who he was from his back because they had met once at the doorway of the room at Elliot and Ruby's wedding.That man was the boss who set up the shooting on the yacht earlier that day.Avery knew they had come for her because they failed to kill Elliot on the yacht.The man in black pushed her into the factory and then the iron gate behind her was slammed shut immediately."Christopher, why did you kidnap me here?" said Avery in a calm and disdainful voice. "Forget it if you’re planning on using me to threaten Elliot. Because he still can’t recognize

"Oh, since you said that, I'm relieved!" Jed sighed, "You didn't see how fierce the man in black was! He shattered my glasses!"When Elliot looked at Jed, Jed's swollen-red eyes reminded him that Avery was still in danger.He clenched his fists and strode out of the ward. Jed tried to catch up to his pace, "What are you going to do?"And Elliot replied, "To smoke. Are you coming?""I'm not good..." Jed was about to reject, but much to his annoyance, he changed his mind, "Let's go!"A moment later, the bodyguard handed Elliot a pack of cigarettes and a lighter.Elliot took the stuff from the bodyguard and paced to the smoking zone, while Jed was following behind him.They both lit up a cigarette each. A cloud of white smoke then rose and lingered in the air.Jed started a conversation, "Elliot, have you really forgotten Avery already? Her bodyguard told me that you used to love each other very much.""Wasn't her bodyguard following her today?" answered Elliot with another quest

Avery walked up to Nick and said firmly, "I will at least ask him to give me an explanation before I leave.""I'm too lazy to care about your business!" said Nick. He had had enough of her stubbornness."I know your bark is worse than your bite. So is Elliot's," said Avery. She felt a glimmer of light in her heart.Although she was kidnapped and humiliated, she was happy that she had known Elliot's thoughts.'If Elliot had had no feelings for me, he wouldn't have come to seek help from Nick,' Avery thought."That's mushy! Don't you feel shy?" Nick blushed and strode out of the living room.Somewhere in the city, Nick's bodyguard left Avery after they had arrived at the hotel safely.When she walked to the lift, her bodyguard walked to her and patted her shoulder, "Avery! You're finally back! Jed called me and said that you were kidnapped, and I was super anxious!"Avery's bodyguard was new to Ylore. He did not have a lot of friends here, hence he could not get any information a
