When everyone struggled toe up with a nice-sounding name, Mr. Taylor suggested, "Why not call him Aid? It's easy to remember and sounds good." Elliot and Avery were startled, knowing that Aiden would definitely be teased by his classmates when he grew up and went to school.
In the end, they settled for Austin instead.

"When Shellyes back, I will transfer this villa to her name. This will be your hfrom now on," Hayden said.
Hayden thought it was only fair to give Shelly a villa aspensation for giving birth to their two children.
Mr. and Mrs. Taylor did not dare accept it. "Let's talk about it when Shellyes back. We'll rest for the night and leave," they said. Meanwhile, on the way back to Elliot's mansion, Ivy noticed the serious look on her parents' faces and broke the silence. "Mom, should I go find Shelly?" "Even your older brother doesn't know where she went," Avery replied. "Where would you go to find her?" Avery tried calling Shelly, but her phone was turned off.
"Shelly has a close friend who is also the co-owner of their cafe. I can go and ask her," Ivy suggested.
"All right, then! We'll pass by there shortly. You can go and ask. If you can't find any answers, let it be. Shelly is an adult, and she must have carefully considered everything before making her decision," Avery said.
"Sure," Ivy replied.
They arrived at the cafe, and Ivy entered.

"Ivy, what would you like to eat? I'll get it for you," Courtney warmly greeted her.
"I'm not here to buy anything. I cto ask you about Shelly's whereabouts," Ivy said.
Courtney stiffened slightly. "She went abroad to clear her mind." "I know. I want to know her exact location so that I can go find her," Ivy said. "Today was supposed to be the day our families met, but Shelly broke up with my brother, and even her own family just found out about it today. I feel like something is off." Courtney sighed. "She got cold feet. She can't face Hayden, so she's hiding." "Why does she have to do this? My brother is not a monster. Why would she hide away like this?" Ivy asked.
"I don't know why she's doing this either. She wouldn't tellthe truth," Courtney said.
"Do you know where she is?" Ivy asked.
After a moment of hesitation, Courtney wrote down an address for Ivy. "This is the hotel she's staying at. She didn't want to tellat first, but I made her. She has never traveled overseas on her own before, and I was worried about her, so made her tellthe nof the hotel. Ivy, are you going to look for her on your own? That's not safe. Why don't you hand the address to your brother and get him to go instead?" "My brother is kind of upset, and he has been busy with work lately, so should go. I travel all the time, so I'm not scared of traveling on my own," Ivy said. After bidding Courtney farewell, Ivy left the cafe.
A day later in Creolia, Ivy checked into her hotel room and, while she was waiting, called Shelly to hear Shelly's ringtone behind her.
