"Yeah, Avery. There shouldn't be any issue now that he's awake," Wesley said.

Avery glanced at Elliot, before asking Wesley to step outside for a word, and Wesley immediately knew that she was about to lecture him about the choice he made.

"Is Shea alright?" Avery asked as soon as they were outside the room.

"She's fine. She did not manage to get any sleep until I told her that Elliot is going to live," Wesley said nervously. "Avery, this is my fault. Blame me if you want to!"

"I told you that I don't blame you, Wesley. I stand by my words. I didn't call you out here to yell at you. I just want you to think up another way to deal with this if something like this happens in the future."

Wesley adjusted his glasses. "What better way is there than this? I tried to think of one and came up with nothing."

"You could have told me. If I had known that he would rather die than keep the device in his head, do you think I would have really stopped him?" Avery said calmly.

Wesley swallowed nervously. "Avery, do you even know yourself? If you found out about this, you would have fought Elliot and done everything in your power to stop him from dying."

Avery stared at Wesley in shocked silence.

Wesley cleared his throat awkwardly. "I might not know you well enough, but Elliot knows you, doesn't he? If he knew that you would have allowed him to proceed with the surgery, why would he bother lying to you about it? He must have thought it through and knew that telling you wouldn't work, before deciding to keep this from you."

"Wesley, am I really that much of a dictator?"

"It's not that, but you love him, so you can't keep a leveled head when it comes to him," Wesley said empathetically.

Avery gave him a bitter smile.

"Avery, be sure to not trust anyone when you head outside from now on. You cannot afford to get tricked again like you did." Wesley was still terrified whenever he thought back to what had happened. "You two got lucky, and you have a brilliant son, otherwise, you would have never seen one another again."

"I will be careful," she said. "We were desperate to find Ivy, and after what has happened, I've given up. I think Elliot has given up as well. If we can't find her no matter what, I guess it means that she's no longer alive. Even if she is, she would be over three years old now, and for someone to raise her up to that age, they must have already developed a bond..."

"You should have thought like that a long time ago. It's not like you weren't searching for that kid. You had sent your men to search for her, and it would have been for the best had you found her, but you shouldn't have compromised your lives in the process of finding her." Wesley consoled her. "You haven't eaten, right? Let's go outside to eat. Consider that my apology."

Avery rubbed at her belly and suddenly realized that she was hungry. Sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ ꜰindNʘvel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

A plane landed at the airport and Sebastian stepped outside along with his bodyguard.

He had come to Aryadelle this time to find out more about Elliot's condition and to locate Natalie.

As soon as he stepped out of the airport, he turned on his phone and an update about Elliot instantly popped into sight.

It was a message from Avery. [Elliot is awake.]

Sebastian's blood instantly ran cold, because, with Elliot awake, Dean's life was only going to go downhill from there, which meant that Sebastian himself would suffer as well.

The bodyguard caught a taxi and the two headed toward the five-star hotel they had booked.

Sebastian replied to Avery. [Congratulations.]

Avery did not reply, because there was nothing left to say. She did not need his help any longer and there was no need for the two of them to stay in touch from now on.

After a while, Sebastian could not help but send her another message. [I'm in Aryadelle. My dad sent me here to look for Natalie.]
