"Hayden, you found Ivy?" Layla yelled in shock.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"No, but I have found snews." Hayden had not wanted to divulge what he had found yet, but when Avery informed her children that Ivy might be dead, he could no longer remain silent.
"Hayden, what news did you find?" Avery's heart was about to pop out. Her breath quickened.
Elliot's gaze burned into Hayden. His voice trembled a little, "Hayden, where is Ivy right now?" "I don't know where she is. The only thing I know is that they have not killed her. The crsyndicate knew that she was your daughter, and they did not toss her with the other children in the pit." Hayden told them everything he knew. "The person only knew that Ivy had been sold to someone rich. That person had bought Ivy at a high price, so surely he would not kill her." This topic was clearly beyond Robert's understanding. He did not understand what was going on, but he could understand the word kill. He was so afraid he quickly hid in Layla's arms.
"Hayden, stop talking! You're scaring Robert." Layla hugged Robert. Her voice was a little croaky. She was frightened as well. Selling and killing children, these words made her shudder. It was almost as if she was hearing a horror story.
"Hayden, let's talk somewhere else." Avery got up from the dining chair and walked over to Hayden.
Hayden stood up and followed Avery out of the dining room out of pressure.

"Daddy, don't go! I'm afraid!" Layla looked at Elliot with a pitiful expression. "Robert is afraid too!" Elliot looked at the two children shivering with fear. He caved in.
He walked to the children and spoke to them gently, "Don't be afraid. I won't let bad people get close to you. Ivy was taken away by bad people because Daddy and Mommy were not with her." "Daddy, I'm worried for Ivy." Layla was afraid. "The people who took her away must be very evil. I don't want you and Mommy to be hurt by bad people anymore. I don't want you to look for Ivy, but I also hope that she returns..." Layla cried, feeling conflicted. "Layla, don't worry. If there is news of your sister we will surely rescue her. Your mommy and I won't go there ourselves. We'll send others there. That way, you won't need to be worried about us." Elliot had just gotten discharged from the hospital. Even if they found Ivy, Avery would surely forbid him to go himself. "Daddy, I don't want you to leaveever again. don't want Mommy to leave me, too. Can you two always be by my side?" Layla blinked her huge, wet eyes, pleading with him. "The bodyguard spends more twiththat you two." S "Layla, I promise you-" "You have to promisenot to leave. Can you watch as Robert becomes like Hayden and I?" Layla pouted. Tears quickly fell from the corner of her eyes.
In the study upstairs, Avery looked at Hayden and asked, "Who did you speak to, to get such news of Ivy? Why didn't you tellimmediately? You said that Ivy was sold to a wealthy person, who was she sold to?"
