"The body has been dealt with. With the number of guests here today, we are scared that they might see something," replied the bodyguard.
Paul could not believe it.
It wasn't long before the ambulance arrived and Gary was brought down with a stretcher into the ambulance.
Who would've thought that a party would be ended by Gary being attacked? After Elliot sent the guests away, he wanted to drive Ruby home.
"Is my father going to be okay? How did she sneak into the party?” asked Ruby.
"Your father is safe. The dagger missed his heart," said Elliot as he opened the door for Ruby to get in.
"Elliot, | want to go to the hospital," said Ruby.

Ruby could not help but be scared for her father. He just got out of the hospital after a bad fall, and now he was stabbed.
"Even if you are at the hospital, there's not much you can do. Go back to the house, wait until he wakes up, then we can go," said Elliot.
"Okay, are they waiting for you? | can go back by myself. You stay here with your friends," suggested Ruby.
After Ruby left, Elliot walked back to his friends.
"Edward, Ted, you can go now!" said Elliot.
"Why did you save the woman? | don't understand what you and Mike are trying to do," said Edward.
Elliot of course did not kill Jed's girlfriend.
He hid the woman in Nick's car and asked Nick to keep her safe for a while.
After Gary is dead, Elliot will send her somewhere safe.
Nick shrugged, "Avery promised me that if | fall sick in the future, she would help me. Elliot promised me that if | ever need any help, | could call in a favor. Think of it as an investment." Both Edward and Ted snorted.
"Nick, bring her somewhere safe and make sure she gets medical attention. | have to go see if Gary is dead or not," said Elliot before he left.
"Okay, | promise you that she would be safe. | too, am in awe of her courage to assassinate Gary on her own. If Gary died today, that would be quite ironic," said Nick.
"She missed," said Elliot.
"Why do you sound so disappointed? Even if Gary doesn't die today, he is still going to need some time to recover. Go now, remember to update us if anything major happens," said Nick.
Elliot nodded ?a%:WNW= left for the hospital.

After Avery left the hospital, she immediately went to Professor Hough's residence to visit Shea.
Even though Shea started to put on some weight after the surgery, she still looked very skinny.
Shea had already regained the ability to walk, but she gets tired out quickly.
"Shea, you seemed to be recovering quite rapidly. If Mrs. Scarlet were here, she would be proud of you," said Avery.
Shea's eyes lit up at the mention of Mrs. Scarlet, "I miss her, | wanted to call her. But | think that perhaps it would be more of a surprise if | go find her." "Shea, I'm leaving tomorrow," said Avery.
"I've already packed! Avery, my brother, Elliot, when is he coming back?" asked Shea.
"I'm wondering the same thing. Do you want to see him?" asked Avery.
Shea bit down on her lip and nodded.
"Then let's video call him," said Avery as she took out her phone.
