While Charlie and Jeanette were busy welcoming guests at the hotel that morning, Elliot's personal team of bodyguards and manned helicopters surrounded the entire Tierney Villa.Charlie's subordinates had never in their lives encountered such a terrifying battle.All it took was the time for Elliot to finish one cigarette in the living room for his bodyguards to get back what was his!This top-secret plan was devised after Chelsea heard Charlie's phone conversation about how he had left his bargaining chip against Elliot with one of his subordinates.Once Elliot retrieved his belonging, he left.Chelsea knew that today was probably the last time they would ever meet again in their lives.He did not belong to her, not before, not now, and now ever.She never received love from Elliot, but she learned how to be ruthless and cruel!Over at the hotel, Ben received a phone call, then said to his comrades, "Elliot isn't coming. You can all leave now!""Huh? Can we at least stay for

Tammy: [I don't blame Elliot, Avery. What happened to me had nothing to do with him. Besides, he wouldn't have been able to retrieve his bargaining chip if it weren't for Chelsea's help this time. I can understand that.]Avery: [Sometimes, being too understanding makes it easier for you to be wronged.]Tammy: [Do you know why I've come around? It's not that I'm that forgiving, but it's because Chelsea's now disfigured. Her face will never recover. She has to spend the rest of her life with that hideous face. If I became like that, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to live for another second longer. She won't be any better off than we were before.]Avery: [He who is unjust is doomed to destruction.]Tammy: [That's right! Ben texted me just now and told me I must attend Jun's wedding. What do you think he meant by that?]Avery: [Do you want to go? Go if you do, don't go if you don't. Don't get influenced by him.]Tammy: [I wanted to go at first, but I got so mad today that I don't feel

Avery could not slip away and had no choice but to let MIke return to Aryadelle with the twins first.Adrian's family was not happy with his post-surgery condition, but at least they did not give Avery a hard time about it.Both parties signed an agreement before the surgery. Avery would treat Adrian's illness, but she could not guarantee that the surgery would be a complete success.Three days after the surgery, Avery's phone rang at noon.Once she heard the phone ringing, she quickly wrapped up changing Robert's diaper, then picked up her phone and answered the call."Adrian's awake, Doctor Tate. He can hear us this time and he's responding."Adrian's father, Nathan, was the one on the other line.Avery suddenly felt relieved, "I'll head over to the hospital right away."She hung up the phone, then handed the baby to Mrs. Cooper.Once she arrived at the hospital, she hurried over to the patient's room."He went back to sleep again, Doctor Tate," Nathan said in confusion wit

"Adrian! My dear boy!" Nathan rushed into the room and shoved Avery aside.Avery did not feel any respect from this man at all.It was as if he wanted to kick her out of the room.She stared at the man's profile and wanted to say something, but her reason stopped her from doing so.She felt bad for Adrian, but she had no connection to him at all. Once she was finished with his surgery and his family was happy with the results, her job here was done."I was wrong about you earlier, Doctor Tate!" After Nathan got a response from Adrian, he immediately turned around and said emotionally, "Adrian understood when I called out to him. This is a huge improvement! I'll wire over the remaining payment to you in three days, Doctor Tate. As for the follow up… If Adrian doesn't have any other incurable diseases, then we don't bother you again."Avery was stunned.Nathan was saying that once they paid her off, whatever happens to Adrian in the future had nothing to do with her anymore. He al

The elite class for young prodigies that Hayden attends at Central University was unlike any other ordinary elementary school. No matter how much money Avery had, she would not be able to enroll Layla there.Besides, Layla did not want to join an elite class anyway.She could not understand anything that Hayden was learning about, nor did she have any interest in it.When Mike led Layla out of the house and saw Elliot's car, he immediately froze in his tracks.Elliot's driver opened up the trunk to the car and brought out Mrs. Cooper's suitcases.Mike held Layla's hand and walked over to check on the situation."These are Mrs. Cooper's things. She resigned from her job at the Foster mansion, so Mr. Foster asked me to bring her things here," said the driver."Your boss let you use the Rolls-Royce to send luggage over?" Mike's intuition told him that it was possible that Elliot was in the car.After a few seconds of awkwardness, the driver explained, "Mr. Foster is in the car. I
