NovelOnlineAvery instantly forgot that she had called Mike to inform him about her surgery.
"Ah? You haven't heard about it? | 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. | think | told you about the time | 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. | 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*ck off, but most of our core technology has been stolen." Avery was stunned. "Uh..." She truly did not know what to say. The entire thing came as a shock to her, and she did not know how to process it.

"Avery, just scold me! | know that Tate Industries is your life's work, which is why | did not dare call you all this while..." Mike said, blaming himself.
"It's fine. Don't get upset. Although it is important, it is not as important as you," said Avery, comforting him. "I'm not angry. It's true." "Why are you not angry? " "Because | suddenly realized nothing is more important than a healthy body." "Are you... sick?" Mike asked suspiciously." Only the sick would say such things." "Hmm. I'm calling you to tell you that I'm going to have a minor surgery. | won't be able to call the children for the next few days." "I'll look after them, don't worry." Mike asked, "What minor surgery?" She knew that Mike was blaming himself, and she did not want to cause him further worry. "A minor gynecologic procedure," she said, brushing it off.
Mike did not ask her any further questions.
In the afternoon, Avery was asleep when a flurry of footsteps woke her. She opened her eyes.
Soon, Jed pushed open the door =b,:QMW< entered.
"Avery, are you awake? | have arranged for a checkup tomorrow. Before the surgery, | need to do a detailed checkup on you." "Hmm. You are my doctor now. I'll listen to you." Avery asked, "What's going on out there?" "You heard it?" Jed walked over to her bed." Gary Gould fell at home and passed out. He is in the emergency unit.
When Gary was sent into the emergency room, his men stood outside the door, anxiously waiting.
"I wonder if you have heard that we have the world's best neurologist in our hospital right now?" said the doctor to Gary's trusted aide, Paul.

Paul furrowed his brows. "Take me to that doctor!" The doctor immediately led Paul toward Avery's ward.
Soon, Avery found herself in front of the entrance of the emergency room. She spotted Elliot immediately.
Elliot also saw her. To put it more accurately, he noticed the hospital gown that she was wearing.
He furrowed his brows.
