Chapter 241
Author: Simple Silence
This was Elliot's chance to start a deep conversation with Avery.

"Shea and I—"

He began to speak, but the photo on Avery's phone screen grabbed his attention.

"Who's this man?"

He looked a little familiar.

Elliot kept glancing back at the photo.

He was sure that he had seen the man before, but could not recall anything about him.

Avery snatched her phone back.

"You haven't changed at all. You're still just as controlling. Is this a common problem that older men face?"

She shoved her p

    Three years later…Ivy and Robert stood at the airport in Aryadelle, anxiously waiting."It's been three years! Your boyfriend is finally here to see you!" Robert exclaimed before shifting the conversation. "He's not here to break up with you, is he? After all, you haven't seen each other in three years. A lot can change."Ivy sighed, "Robert, can you not jinx it? Although we haven't met in three years, we talk on the phone and video call every day!"Robert quipped, "Digital romance.""Anyway, he promised me that he's going to settle down in Aryadelle this time, and we won't be apart again," Ivy said. Robert smirked. "He's got a strong sense of pride. When he meets Dad later, they might not hit it off, and he'll buy a ticket to leave tonight!"Feeling helpless, Ivy was at a loss for words. Just then, a familiar voice called out, "Ivy!"Ivy immediately looked over to the source of the voice and saw Lucas stepping out of the exit, dragging his suitcase behind him. A smile sp

    Mr. Woods did not expect Hayden to be so direct, and he found himself momentarily caught off guard. He had come to ask Hayden for money, but he had not thought about exactly how much he wanted. After all, Hayden's family was extremely wealthy, and he did not want to ask for too little and feel shortchanged, nor did he want to risk asking for too much and having Hayden refuse. It was a tough decision. After a brief internal struggle, Mr. Woods turned to Hayden and said, "I know your family is one of the wealthiest in Aryadelle, so why don't you name the price? I trust you won't mistreat my son and our family." Hayden furrowed his brows slightly. Shelly, noticing his hesitation, quickly chimed in, "Uncle, why don't you make an offer? We're not very familiar with this process. If you insist on us naming a price, we might need to consult my father-in-law." "Elliot Foster, you mean?" Mr. Woods asked. Shelly nodded. "Yes. My father-in-law isn't as easygoing as my husband. After a

    "All right. Let's find a place nearby to sit and talk." Mr. Woods breathed a sigh of relief. "Good! Our house is actually nearby. Would you like to visit? Ivy has been with us for many years, and our staff has a close relationship with her." Hayden glanced at Shelly and asked, "Should we go?" "Sure!" Shelly said. Mr. Woods immediately invited Hayden and Shelly into his car and drove them to the Woods' mansion. Upon arriving, Mr. Woods instructed the servants to serve tea and refreshments. He pointed to the butler and said to Hayden, "This is our butler. He hired Ivy's grandmother." Hayden nodded. Mr. Woods then introduced Hayden: "This is Irene's older brother, the renowned businessman Mr. Hayden Tate." "Hello, Mr. Tate. Irene was a wonderful young lady," the butler said. "We all liked her very much. When we heard of her passing, we were truly saddened. Fortunately, she didn't actually pass away! Ivy is a very sensible and resilient girl, one of the strongest I've eve

    Ivy's eyes were red as she said, "Hayden, Lucas' mother has passed away, so I won't be able to spend time with you for a few days." "It's okay. Given what has happened, we're not in the mood for fun either. After we attend his mother's funeral, Shelly and I will return," Hayden said. Ivy nodded. "How are funerals handled here?" Hayden asked. Given Lucas' relationship with Ivy, his younger sister, he felt a sense of duty to help Lucas with the funeral arrangements. "It's similar to how it's done back at home. Wealthy people can have elaborate funerals, and those with less money can opt for simpler ceremonies. Those who can't afford much at all can forgo the ceremony and opt for a simple burial," Ivy said. "What if someone wants a more elaborate funeral?" "Hayden, do you want to help with his mother's funeral? He doesn't have any close relatives here, so there's no need for an elaborate ceremony," she explained. "I see. Go and talk to him about it. I'll help with whatever I

    Lucas hung up, tears welling in his eyes. Ivy stood by his side and asked, "What's wrong, Lucas?" "My mom has passed away. You should keep your brother company! I need to head back to the hospital." "I will come along! Aunty seemed fine just now, so why did she suddenly pass away?" The two hurried toward the car, completely forgetting about Hayden and Shelly. Hayden and Shelly watched as they left awkwardly, and Shelly said, "Honey, let's go to the hospital. I think Lucas' mother has passed away." "Sure." The two caught a taxi and hurried after Lucas. Meanwhile, in the hospital, Lucas arrived to first encounter the doctor and then his father. Mr. Woods tried ingratiating himself with his son, saying, "Lucas, I came to the hospital to see your mother, but when I arrived, she had already passed away. What a shame!" "Are you sure she had already passed away before you came? I was here earlier today, and when I saw her, she was still alive!" Lucas said. Mr. Woods reto

    Mr. Woods sneered, "What do you mean? Are you looking down on me? Although the Woods family has fallen on hard times, we're still a prominent family in Taronia! Lucas may be foolish, but are you any wiser? If it weren't for me backing Lucas, would the Fosters even look at him?" "Shut up! The Foster family isn't narrow-minded like you! Ivy's family doesn't dislike Lucas, so don't go causing trouble! They don't want to see you at all!" Lucas' mother retorted. Mr. Woods scoffed. "Is that so? Do you really think they don't look down on him? Why wouldn't they? Are they planning to make Lucas marry into their family instead of the other way round?" "It's none of your business! You never cared about Lucas, and now that he's independent, he doesn't need you anymore! You wouldn't have come to me repeatedly if Ivy wasn't Elliot Foster's daughter and if she wasn't interested in Lucas. Do you really think I have no idea what you are plotting?" Mr. Woods countered, "What nonsense are you ta

OMG really!!!! Is the author a high schooler or what! this should be a straight beautiful story but the circles are just tiring....a lot of repetition makes the story very uninteresting....I was captured at the beginning of the story but now! nah!!!! this isn't it...

Hope that Zoey plans to trap Elliot flops. I hate manipulative people

it's too long, what's wrong with this writer

Landon my killer boyfriend-read that book somuch better

Why are you dragging this out so far? Drama confusion. Like it’s the same shit over and over. So much so that I’m giving up on this book ...

Yeah like I keep thinking ok we are gonna get somewhere then something else happens. I’m over it really.

Your book was good till you made so many chapters just to keep taking my money and you suck for that I’ll never read any other book on this site greedy people

Aiy Avery is boring always fighting with Elliot , what is the story going to end, why cant she listen to Him to explain who Shea was

Gosh I started to hate this writter. the book started interesting but now it's drama, confusion, never ending misunderstandings yoh what a draining book. plz anyone who knows other books written by this author...plz let me know them so I can never start reading them.

True that I'm starting to hate this book....I won't not use my credit on it any more.

I agree ..it's getting so annoying...its as if the adult characters are all stupid and childish as compared to the real children.... I'm beginning to believe that this is a scam hehe

This author seems very immature. I’m getting bored with all the drama. It’s like a teen or younger created this book. And Who the heck gets headaches everytime they have to think or interact with someone. I might finish it eventually, but I’ll use my credits for other books instead.

You will never catch me paying more then $30-40 for a book. This is beyond greedy.

My godddd this is getting here to keep reading. I loved it in the beginning but now it’s just getting annoying. Like come on, Avery isn’t an idiot, she heard Shea call Eliot big brother and sees how “ill” she is yet thinks they are lovers? It’s stupid. It’s getting drug out way to much.

This is ridiculous. $30 later and I’m only on chapter 238. Supposedly 1907 chapters are you are crazy to expect people to spend this kind of money I won’t be finished in this book or recommending this app

Yea so it was fine up till the “flash forward 4 years” now it’s a mess and the author is mixing things up and dragging it on. Nobody is going to spend $150+ on this. I will only use the free points the app gives me.

Great book but short chapers and so many it seems like i will never finish this book without spending so much money

You guys sure have a way of complicating things! This author is too greedy. This is why paper back novels will forever be a thing. Why spin a little story line in circles when you can make it short. I’m having an headache reading this already. I’m getting disinterested.

Decent book… but author seems greedy! It will cost $100 to read this book. And the story keeps going in circles and is starting to get frustrating like I see no reason to draw this out for a 1000 chapters. I will eventually get bored with it and quit reading it.

I've spent over 10 pounds on this book and it's not even half way through! Good book but greedy author. make the chapters longer. they're literally no more than 1 minute long. ridiculous

At this pace it will take months to finish this book. I refuse to pay anymore, short chapters and it would cost upwards of 50.00 to read. Waiting on reward points will take forever. Why does this story line go in so many damn circles. Get to the point already, I’m on chapter 280 & ready to stop.

Dang!!!!! Author can you go right straight to the point? The story is running in circles.

Please don’t the misunderstandings between Avery and Eliot. It will come out a very nice story if you don’t drag out for so long. Elliot is powerful but will be threatened by just a doctor? It’s rediculous!

I think I know where this story go. I hope you will not let Elliot sleep with Zoe it will make the story boring.

this is a recycling of other books same story same lies , lack of creativity
