"It's her! It was Lilith all along! Damn that woman! She toldthat | slept with her colleagues! Why didn't she tell the truth?! Why is she lying to me?!" Ben gasped and clenched his fists, before storming out of the modeling company. As soon as he walked out, his phone started to ring and when he took it out, he found that he was getting a call from an unknown number.
Instinctively, he wanted to hang up and soon noticed that it was a Ylore number. His mind went into overdrive at that very moment and just as he was about to answer the call, the call was dropped.
In Ylore, the butler entered Elliot's bedroom with a cup of coffee and Elliot immediately ended the call.

Sterling Group no longer belonged to him and Ben was no longer his Chief Financial Officer; though they had been friends for years, what had he hoped to accomplish by getting in touch with Ben when everything had changed? Even if Ben still saw Elliot as his friend, how could Elliot begin to maintain such an imbalanced friendship? The butler set the coffee down before him." Is there anything else you need, Mr. Foster? "No. Get out," he commanded emotionlessly.
The butler went out and closed the door behind him.
Elliot picked up the cup and took a sip of coffee. The screen on his phone lit up when Ben called back; he stared at Ben's number on the display as the bitterness of the coffee spread in his mouth.
The phone rang for a while and was automatically dropped by the system because no one had answered it.
Ben did not call again, and Elliot's world returned to silence.
The piercing pain in his head subdued and his emotions began to sink into nothingness.
He needed to return to Aryadelle to take his company back; he also needed to take back the three children who belonged to him.

Three days later, Avery received news about Elliot. She had not expected to hear about him so soon, and what surprised her more was that she couldn't find joy in the news that he was still alive.
"Miss. Tate, don't be like that." The bodyguard couldn't help but feel gloomy when he saw how pale Avery became.
He was the one who told her about Elliot. He had overheard someone talking about it when he was having a cigarette outside the hotel earlier that day and the news had already spread throughout Ylore.
"You are sick right now, Boss, relax for a bit! " The bodyguard consoled her.
Avery suddenly started coughing and crimson blood cspilling out of her mouth.
