NovelOnline"I understand," replied Ben, it's been a long time since anybody had dared to give Ben a direct order. Even when Elliot was here, he was never like this.
However, Ben was not angry, he felt this was what he owed Lilith.
"By the way... could you at least unblock me?" asked Ben.
After a slight pause, Ben continued, "I'll talk to Mike later. If there's anything else he needs, it would be easier for me to communicate with you." "That would depend on my mood after I finish eating," said Lilith as she hung up the call.
Lilith passed the phone back to Adrian and let out a sigh of relief.
Hayden nonchalantly said, "Actually there's a silver lining even if the company goes bankrupt, at least my mother would not have to be so tired." Hayden had always known about the problem with Tate Industries, but he wasn't worried.
Hayden always felt that it was better that way, at least his mother could finally rest.
"But both you and your sister are still in school! And you have a brother that is yet to go to school! All three of you require a large sum of money. | know that you can earn money, but you are just a kid, what can you do if one day it doesn't work out anymore?" asked Lilith.

"I haven't thought about that before," said Hayden confidently.
"You can think about it now. Of course, even if it doesn't work out, you still have your father. He won't let anything happen to you," said Lilith.
Hayden stayed silent.
"Hayden, don't worry. I'll make sure to improve myself. I'll surely take care of you, even when you don’t think of me as your aunt. | know what your mother did for me," promised Lilith.
Hayden did not know what to say.
Avery returned to her ward after a series of check-ups. When she saw the dinner her son bought for her, she was, of course, moved.
"Hayden needs to go to school tomorrow. That's why he left early," explained the bodyguard.
"Okay," replied Avery.
"Boss, is everything okay?" asked the bodyguard.
"There shouldn't be any problem as of now. Some of the results are still not out yet though," replied Avery.
Avery actually never felt better, probably due to seeing family ?h* "At least you seem to be happier now," commented the bodyguard.
"This is my second home, it's natural that I'm more comfortable here," explained Avery.
"By the way, you seem to have a message. | think it might be from your friend," reminded the bodyguard.
Avery picked up her phone and saw that she had a missed call from Tammy.
Avery immediately returned the call.
"Avery! | heard you are at Bridgedale! I'm coming to see you!" said Tammy.
"There's no need for that! I'm going to leave Bridgedale the moment the doctor allows me to leave the hospital.

I'll surely go look for you the next time I'm in town," promised Avery.
Tammy had always told Avery to leave Ylore when she was there.
"If you say so. Avery, make sure to take good care of yourself. | went to see Robert today. He's so cute. | wish | had a son like him," said Tammy.
"I miss him too. He probably doesn't even recognize me anymore. His first birthday is right around the corner, | just hope that Elliot can make it in time to celebrate his first birthday together," said Avery.
"How's Elliot? Is he in any danger?" asked Tammy.
"Even if he's in danger, he wouldn't tell me. He told me that he would only come back after Gary is dead," explained Avery.
"My god! Does that mean that only one can live between Gary and Elliot?" asked Tammy.
"Yes," said Avery in a melancholic way.
Avery suddenly felt that perhaps vengeance wasn't that important anymore.
