NovelEnglishElliot put the call on loudspeaker. He answered the call.
Nick's voice instantly rang out, "Elliot! Something terrible has happened! The Goulds have been destroyed!" Although there was only Ruby left in the Gould family, the perpetrator had also killed all of the Goulds' servants.
When Elliot heard what Nick had said, his heart turned cold. An icy aura overflowed from him.

Nick said with pity and confusion, "For now, | don’t know who did it. | asked Edward. He said he knew nothing about it. After Gary died, he went abroad to develop a new project. He is not in the country most of the time, so this must have been done by someone else." Elliot and Ben were so stunned by this sudden bad news that they were in a daze. If it was not Edward, who had done it? Could it have been Mike? How could Mike do such a cruel thing? "Ivy... | haven't seen her for now. I'm at the Goulds' mansion. There's blood everywhere. Letlook for Ivy," Nick said. He could not help but gasp, "Don't hang up. This is freakingout.
"This morning, | cto ring the doorbell, but no one opened the door. | realized that something was not right. How could no one be up in the morning? So | got the bodyguard to shoot the door down. | never thought | would find such a tragic scene! Sure enough, now that Gary is dead, his secret enemies have risen!" When Gary had still been alive, the level of security was much stricter than that now. Gary had better connections, too. Often, before his enemies could cinto his territory, he would already have received news about their plans.
However, Ruby had been much weaker than her father! She had thought that, by killing her father, she could have power over the entire Goulds. In fact, her stupid behavior had cost Ruby her life.
If she truly could have managed the Goulds, Gary would not have tried to make Elliot stay back then.
"Book the flight tickets," Elliot said to Ben.
Ben immediately took his phone out ;c!= PIQ; booked tickets.
Soon, the tickets were booked. They left the office. Nick still had not hung up. Nick had searched around the Goulds' mansion for more than ten minutes, yet he still had not found Ivy's body.
"lI haven't found Ivy yet. | saw that the surveillance equipment had been destroyed. Elliot, cquickly! If you don't come, | can't handle it," Nick said.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Hmm." Elliot bore through the heartbreak and hung up.
Nick had not seen Ivy's body. Where had Ivy gone? Was she dead or alive? She had just been born. She was such a tiny being. She could not even walk yet. Even if she had detected danger back then, she could not even escape.
At that thought, Elliot's eyes becwet.
At the Elizabeth Hospital, Avery had had a terrible nap. Her head hurt badly! Although her eyes were shut, she found it hard to sleep. She tried to rise, wanting to look for painkillers, but her body felt like it was being pressed down by something. She could not move.
When she groggily opened her eyes, her sight was blurry. She thought that she was still in a dream, but the blurriness was so real! She reached her hands out and waved them in front of her eyes. She could roughly make out the shape of her hand, but she could not see the print of her skin! She was at a loss. She pinched her arm hard.
It hurt! She felt pain. She was not dreaming, but she still could not see clearly!
