NovelEnglishSeeing Mike's reply, Avery calmed down a little.
Since she already had her suspicions, she should find a way to confirm them.
Whether or not it was as she thought it was, at least, after confirming it, she would no longer think about it.
However, she needed to look after Shea's child at the moment. She could not go to Ylore.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe had to wait until Shea's child had a smooth birth, then only could she make plans.
Perhaps, she had been thinking too deeply into this matter; her head hurt a lot.
She walked over to the bed. She planned to sleep for a while to see if she could relieve the pain.
At Sterling Group, after Ben received the call from Ruby asking for help, he called her back almost immediately. The call connected, but no one picked up.
Under normal circumstances, if one saw an incoming call, one would either pick up or reject the call.
If they truly did not want to answer the call, they could block the number. That way, the other party would not be able to call back.
However, Ruby had not blocked him. Why would she just ignore his calls? Could she have not seen it? However, after she had called him to ask for help, he had called back immediately.
No matter what, he refused to believe that Ruby would fall asleep soundly right after calling him for help.
As tpassed by, Ben grew certain that something must have happened to Ruby.
"Elliot, Ruby's phone has been turned off." Ben called Ruby once more. When he heard the automated response, his expression darkened. "Something must have happened!" Elliot had cto the sconclusion as Ben. Ever since Ben had called Ruby, and she had not picked up, he had already cto that conclusion.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIt was soon dawn at Ylore. Nick said that he would give him more detailed news by daylight.
"Elliot, if Ruby has been killed, who do you think did it?" Ben could not help but wonder.
"lI don't know." Elliot's heart was heavy. He was worried about Ivy. "Edward and the others promisedthat they would not touch Midas Enterprises." "Although that's the case, you're too far away from them. If they want to join forces to get rid of Midas Enterprises, they might not stick to the verbal promise they gave you." Ben thought that the only people who would hurt Ruby were Ted, Edward, ;c-;XMU - the gang.
He did not suspect Nick because Elliot was closest to him.
"If they did it, then | wouldn't worry too much about Ivy," Elliot said. "They will not harm my daughter." "You're right! Hearing you say that, I'm suddenly not that worried anymore." Ben let out a sigh of relief. "Elliot, shall we make a trip to Ylore? If you're not going, | can go alone, too, but you must arrange a few bodyguards for me. Who knows what the hell is going on over there right now?" Elliot was silent for a while. He said, "I'll cwith you." Ben was shocked. "Are you sure? Aren't you afraid of Avery? You promised her that you would never go to Ylore for the rest of your life." "lvy is in danger right now. She will understand," Elliot said and shut his computer.
"Don’t be impulsive. Let's wait for Nick's reply first! If we head to the airport now, we won't be able to receive any news for a long tafter boarding. It's too torturous." Ben sat in the chair and consoled him," Everyone knows that Ivy is your daughter. Whether it's Edward and his gang, or sother enemy of the Goulds, they will most probably not dare to harm Ivy." "I'm just afraid of accidents." Elliot gritted his teeth. He said what he was thinking: " Mike has toldpreviously that he wanted to kill Ruby and Ivy." Ben was taken aback.
Mike?! At that moment, a phone rang. The sudden ringtone caused the nervous atmosphere to reach its peak.
Elliot picked up his phone and saw that it was from Nick. Ben immediately stood up from his chair and walked over to Elliot. He wanted to listen in on the call.
