Elliot hung up the phone with an ominous look on his face and stormed out of his office.Not just anybody could get their hands on sleeping pills.Where did these ones come from?The moment the black Rolls-Royce pulled up into Elliot's front yard, Mrs. Cooper took Shea back to her room.When Elliot walked into the living room, Mrs. Scarlet handed him the test results."You took Shea to the hospital for a checkup?" Elliot asked as he glanced at Mrs. Scarlet.Mrs. Scarlet averted his gaze and did not dare meet his eyes.Avery had instructed her not to tell Elliot that it had been her who had taken Shea to the hospital if Elliot were ever to ask. "It was Miss Tate," Mrs. Scarlet said as she gave in under the pressure of Elliot's glare. "Shea insisted on going to see Miss Tate's children today—""Avery's back?" Elliot said, interrupting her."She got back this morning," said Mrs. Scarlet. "She didn't want anything to do with this, but I begged her to check on Shea because Shea's

Five days later, Elliot showed up at the Sterling Group office at ten in the morning as usual."Your engagement is tomorrow, Sir. Don't you want to take the day off?" asked Chad as he greeted Elliot."I don't," Elliot said as he walked through his office doors.Chad followed him closely."Sir, I heard from Mike that they've successfully talked Bohmer Holdings into starting a new company here in Aryadelle to supply high-end lenses to them.""If I'm not mistaken, doesn't Bohmer Holdings work with Alpha Technologies?""That's right. It shows what a good relationship Miss Tate has with the owner of Bohmer Holdings. If not for her, they would not have set up a new company in Aryadelle," theorized Chad. "I looked into the head of Bohmer Holdings and found something interesting."What is it?" Elliot asked as his curiosity got the better of him."The current head of Bohmer Holdings is the son of Professor James Hough's cousin," said Chad, reporting the findings of his recent investigat

"You're a kid, too!" Layla exclaimed as her curiosity escalated."My eyes were dirty after I saw it. Do you want to dirty your eyes, too?"Layla shook her head.She was curious, but she decided not to see whatever it was after hearing Hayden's words."Mommy wants to hire a bodyguard for us," Layla said, changing the subject. "We can't go around freely once we have a bodyguard.""When that happens, you'll be in charge of distracting the bodyguard while I move alone."Layla hesitated, then said, "If Dirtbag Dag really marries that Sanford lady, then we shouldn't go looking for him again! We should just act as if we don't have a dad!"Hayden glanced at his innocent sister, then said assuredly, "He won't marry her.""Why not?""She's not a good woman.""Daddy isn't a good man either! Wouldn't they be perfect together?"Hayden did not have a response to Layla's words.He suddenly felt like his sister was the smartest person in the world.He should allow Elliot Foster to play th

Just moments ago, Eric Santos, who Elliot had been searching for far and wide, finally appeared on social media!As a once-formidable king of pop, his accident on stage three years ago was the biggest tragedy of his life!Since then, he disappeared from the limelight.Everyone had assumed that he was dead.Even so, his diehard fans spent every day leaving comments and liking his social media posts in hopes of a miracle.In the end, a miracle finally happened!Eric Santos uploaded a new post on his social media page at 6.55 a.m. that morning.[Dear friends. It's been three years. How have you all been? I've been well, but I've felt a little lonely. I bought a Storm Series drone last year. Every day I flew it to faraway places, and with it, I got some exciting footage with each trip made. It made me feel like I was immersed in a city glowing with fireworks. I'm very grateful for its company. To me, my drone was not a cold machine, but an old friend. Now, my dear friend is going th

The doors to the black Rolls-Royce were locked.Avery was sitting in the car, and she was filled with regret. She must not have been fully awake when she had entered the car that morning.By the time she realized what she did, the doors had already been locked.What was the meaning of this? Was this an abduction?"What do you want, Elliot?" Avery asked as she glared at Elliot with furrowed brows.Was it not the day of his engagement?Where did he find time to come and see her?"Do you know Eric Santos, Avery?" Elliot asked as he looked up at Avery with a sharp gaze. "Don't lie to me!"After Avery answered his call that morning, her phone had run out of battery and shut down.She had no way of knowing what was happening online.Avery was suddenly alert at the sudden mention of Eric."I don't. Why?"She stared at Elliot's familiar yet distant face and forced herself to stay composed."Why would he help you if you didn't know him?" Elliot snapped as he spoke faster, "I saw
