NovelOnlineWhat was going on at Ruby's? "She's not picking up your calls either. | think something fishy is going on." Ben furrowed his brows. A bad feeling rose in his heart.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Let's wait! We'll soon have news from Nick." Ten minutes later, Nick called.
"Elliot, the man | sent to check on Ruby said that her gate was shut. They did not find anything strange." Nick yawned. "Do you know what tis it over here? Why are you calling at this hour? Everyone is asleep!" Elliot said, "Nick, an hour ago, Ruby called, asking for help. | heard the recording of the conversation. | heard a gunshot." Nick was instantly serious. "But the man | sent there has returned. He said that he didn't find anything strange. You know as well that the Goulds have bodyguards. My bodyguards won't even dare to disturb them unless | head over there myself." "Then, please, head over there! " Elliot said." | am sure | heard a gunshot." "Tomorrow morning! I'm out now. | drank too much while socializing tonight. My head hurts," Nick said. "If something happened to Ruby, I will receive news of it. If | receive any news, | will let you know immediately." Elliot could not do anything when he heard what Nick had to say. Ivy was his daughter, not Nick's. Of course, Nick was not worried.
Elliot wanted to badly fly to Ylore! "What did Nick say?" Ben stood next to him. He did not clearly hear the conversation.
"He's out, and he can’t head over to Ruby's." Elliot's expression darkened. "Let's wait for a while! After a few more hours, there should be snews." "Looks like all we can do is wait! It'll take a few hours to get there anyways," Ben sighed. "I can only hope that this is one of Ruby's pranks." At Elizabeth Hospital, Avery brought Tammy to the lab. Tammy looked at the artificial womb for a while and sighed.

My legs get cramps at night while I'm sleeping. It hurts. Also, my legs are starting to get swollen. In a few more days, | won't know whether | will be able to go out with you anymore." Avery said, "This technique is not guaranteed to be one hundred percent safe! Even if | did say anything, | don’t think your mother will let you attempt it. Don't regret it. If Shea's body was healthy, we would not have to do this," said Avery, comforting Tammy.
"Pregnancy >e.;UJQ= labor is something not all of us get to experience." "Are you comforting me?" If | can choose to forgo such a painful experience, | would take it away without any hesitation." Tammy looked exasperated. "I have gained twenty kilograms! | have never been so fat in my life. | compared myself to my photos in the past. I'm so much fatter now it's like I'm a different person!" Avery could not help but smile. "Tammy, don't worry. Once your child is born, you'll slim down. Also, when your baby girl is born, you will find that all the pain you have experienced is worth it." "I really hope it is as you say." "Of course! | have already given birth to three children. | don't regret it one bit." Avery thought about all her children. She looked happy and content.
"If | were you, | wouldn't regret it too.
Mainly because your genes and Elliot's are great! You two should have more children," Tammy said and looked at the artificial womb again. "Are you and Wesley taking shifts guarding this artificial womb?" "Yes. | take the day, and he takes the night. His father helps out during the weekend." "My god! This feels more troublesthan being pregnant! This meant that you and Wesley can't work for the next ten months, " Tammy exclaimed.
"Yes! | owe it to Shea anyway. If it wasn't for Shea donating her blood to Robert, Robert would long be dead. So, | have to do my best to ensure that Shea's child survives." Tammy nodded. "I'll stay with you today!" "No need. I'll send you back after | treat you to a meal," Avery said. "It's too boring here. Also, you need to rest well now." "You just think I'll be in your way, right?" said Tammy, pouting.
"Then, don't go. Stay here with me. Once you're tired, just sleep on the small bed. | accidentally fell from the bed a few nights ago, so when you're sleeping, you better be careful...” said Avery, scaring her.
