Avery gave her bodyguard a look, signaling him to stay quiet.She stepped out of the canteen and answered the call."Miss Tate, I told my men to send Bobby to the hospital today. I heard that he shouted at you yesterday, and I hope you don't take it personally. He's been mentally disturbed since the car crash. I've hired a psychiatrist to look at him but it's not really working. I can only hope that you will be able to cure him.""Sure, I will go check on him at the hospital later," she said calmly."Yeah. I trust you with my son. Do let me know if you need anything else. If you can't reach me, you can contact my assistant," Dean offered kindly."Sure. I apologize for showing up out of the blue to meet with Ms. Hills this morning.""Haha, Angela told me about it when I woke up this morning. She doesn't blame you for it. She simply resents Professor Hough," Dean said casually. "He is dead and the past is in the past. So long as you refrain from mentioning Professor Hough in front

In Aryadelle, Natalie had been dazed and demotivated for the past few days. She had been doubting herself and her beliefs all along ever since her mother had told her that Dean Jennings was her biological father.Without Dean's help, she would have never accomplished what she had so far. Natalie thought back to the time when she had mocked Avery for depending on men for her success, yet she had come to realize that she was no different than Avery."Ms. Jennings, is something troubling you?" Her assistant asked gingerly.Natalie picked up her mug and took a sip of coffee."If one day your mother tells you that you are not your father's child and that your real father is someone else, how would you react?" Natalie asked. "The father you've known has been caring and loving, and isn't aware that you are not his child."The assistant hesitated for a moment, before looking troubled. "That's insane! I've only ever seen something like that on television. Ms. Jennings, if something like th

"Leah, what's that look on your face? Your cousin knows that you want to stay in Aryadelle and told us not to be too harsh on you. It's bad enough that you are not thanking her, what are you making that face for? Do you think we are forcing you to work for your cousin? She is just trying to help you! Do you really think that anyone can get to work for your cousin? If you weren't our daughter, someone like you would never get a chance to work there!" Running out of patience, Mr. Kennedy barked.Mrs. Kennedy wanted to remain silent but was far too enraged by Leah's attitude. "Leah Kennedy, I don't even know you anymore! Who turned you into such a person? That bodyguard?""Mom, ever since you came to cause a scene at my school, Layla has asked to put a stop to the tutoring, and I haven't spoken to her bodyguard since. Why are you dragging them into this mess?" Leah asked sharply."Ha! Just listen to how pathetic you sound! You seem pretty proud of tutoring someone for free, huh? Since

The bodyguard saw the blade in Bobby's hand and he saw the blade in Avery. Avery's clothes were instantly soaked in red, but thankfully, she was not stabbed in the heart.He grabbed the vase on the table to throw it at Bobby, but Avery grabbed him by the arm and stopped him. "Take me to the emergency room to stop the bleeding."The dagger was still stuck in her flesh and Avery could feel that she was losing more and more blood.The bodyguard threw the vase away to lift Avery up, before turning to leave."Miss Tate, are you okay?" the bodyguard asked worriedly."It's just a scratch... It's not a big deal." Avery was strangely calm, as though she was not the one who was stabbed."Why are you so calm, Miss Tate? Why didn't you let me teach that b*st*rd a lesson? How dare he try to kill you? I could just kill him right now!" he gritted out."He wouldn't stab me in the abdomen if he really wanted to kill me," she lowered her voice and said. "Dean Jennings is the one who wants me dead

Mike walked out and ran into Hayden. The two headed to the dining room without a word."Your mom said she's fine, but her face is as pale as a ghost, so she must have lost quite a lot of blood," Mike whispered."I won't let that old twat live!" said Hayden through gritted teeth as his expression grew dark. "We will need to plan it out carefully because he still has your father. We are in a passive position at the moment," Mike said. "Your dad is your mom's main concern right now. We will need to find out where Elliot is and find a way to get him out. Once he is out, we are free to do whatever we want with Dean Jennings."In the bedroom, Avery wiped herself dry and changed into a set of loose pajamas, before stepping out of the bathroom.Her phone started ringing, so she went to the nightstand to pick up her phone, only to realize that Dean was calling.She took a deep breath and answered."Miss Tate, are you okay? I heard that Bobby went mad and stabbed you. That beast! He's go
