Avery instantly forgot that she had called Mike to inform him about her surgery."Ah? You haven't heard about it? I thought someone in the office would have told you about it, and that you are calling me to settle the score with me," Mike said awkwardly."No wonder you haven't been calling me. Turns out, it's the company that is in trouble." Avery took a deep breath. "Is the company going bankrupt?""Yeah," Mike sighed. "I'm sorry, Avery. This time, it is really my fault. I think I told you about the time I had gotten dumped. Well, that man is looking for me. He did not approach me directly, but he stole our core technology for Wanda. Wanda did not even need to compensate him. He did that to gain my attention. That idiot!""Your ex?""Hmm. I forgot to tell you that he is also a hacker. His hacking skills are better than mine. It took me a few sleepless nights to find out that it was him!"Avery was baffled. She did not know what to say.Mike said, "I have already told him to f*c

Avery could see that Elliot was not doing well."The inpatient unit is that way, let's go!" said Aaron, the bodyguard, breaking the silence. He had noticed that they had not moved.The three of them headed to the inpatient unit.When they reached the neurology department, Avery said to Elliot, "Get your bodyguard to pay the bill."Elliot immediately got his card out and handed it to the bodyguard. After the bodyguard left, Avery led Elliot into a doctor's office.There were two doctors in the office. They were rather surprised to see Avery and Elliot entering the room. Avery took Elliot into the office washroom and shut the door."Didn't I tell you to decline their request? Why did you not listen to me?" growled Elliot."Why should I refuse Gary treatment?" Avery had her own reasons for wanting to treat Gary. "Nick told me that once Gary is dead, you will no longer have to fulfill your promises to him." Elliot was stunned by her bold idea. "Are you going to take this as an o

Jed said, "Once her surgery is done, we can go."Since he sounded so sure, the bodyguard was a little excited. "Are you for real?""I'm guessing. My intuition is usually quite accurate.""Can you predict how much money I'm going to get as a bonus once we get back?" Jed was speechless. He patted his pocket. "Do you still have cigarettes? Let's go have one.""Didn't Miss Tate ask us to send Gary's men away? Let's smoke later! Didn't you say you don't like smoking?" The bodyguard took out a box of cigarettes and passed it to Jed. He took out another box and smelled the cigarettes."It's boring here. Smoking kills time.""You're right. Not only does it kill time, but it perks you up too! However, it damages the body.""I thought so too in the past, but later, I thought it through. Who knows what tomorrow will bring? Maybe, we will die in an accident?" …After Gary's checkup, he was sent to the inpatient unit.When Paul saw that Avery was not there, he was furious. Although Aar

Elliot entered the doctor's office. He asked the doctor on duty about Gary's condition. Once he was done, he left the office and headed straight for the nearby elevator. After walking in, he pressed the number for the floor below him.The elevator reached his destination in no time, and he walked out.Instead of going directly to ward V03, he went to the neurosurgeon's office.The doctor was stunned to see Elliot.He sat down opposite the doctor and said, "I want to know how Avery is doing.""This... This involves the patient's privacy. I am unable to tell you anything." The doctor looked nervous. Elliot had clearly put him in a tight spot. "You could speak to her if you know her.""She said it is a minor operation. I want to know if it's a minor operation or not." He changed his phrasing.The doctor pushed his spectacles higher up his nose and considered Elliot's request. Finally, he said, "She doesn't trust Ylore's doctors, and a doctor from Bridgedale is performing the oper

"Oh... So you married Ruby for the Goulds' assets.""It wasn't as if Gary got them legitimately." He scoffed and said, "Here, the rule of the game is to eat or be eaten.""Do you genuinely like this kind of life, Elliot?" She hated the life he had just described to her, and she wanted him to realize what a horrible life it was. "Now that Christopher is dead, everything Gary has will be yours in the future as long as you spend a good life with Ruby.""Gary doesn't share that view," he said. "He is forcing me to have a child with Ruby so that he can leave everything to that child. That child must take the Gould surname."Avery could not help but laugh. "But our children take my surname.""The situation is different. One is voluntary while the other is forced.""Will you be able to give up your current plans for the sake of me and our children?" She thought about the matter for a while, before she said, "We can have all the money we want, but we'll never be able to spend all of it d
