Chapter 641
Shaun was sobbing through the phone and Avery knew that she had to hurry back. Her mind went blank from the
sudden turn of events. The core technology of Tate Industries had been stolen and the most pathetic of it all was
that they had no idea who was behind it.
The culprit had taken the opportunity of the absence of her and Mike since they had traveled overseas for leisure.
The core technology of the company was stored in a microchip with layers of security barriers set within it; even
when stolen, the culprit might not be able to decode the content right away, but it would happen eventually.
The world was never short of accidents, just like how she didn’t imagine that Zoe would commit46 suicide.
At seven in the morning, Hayden stepped out of his room and found the entire mansion in silence, as though there
was not another soul. He went over to Avery’s room and noticed that the bedsheet was in a mess, but there was no

“Mom!” Hayden shouted 34 loudly.
Meanwhile, in the living room, Elliot was woken up by the shout. He got up from the couch through the excruciating
headache from the hangover and walked towards Hayden.
“Hayden, what’scd wrong?”
Hayden’s eyes reddened; without a care of their previous grudges, he asked anxiously, “my mom is gone! Do you
know where she is?”
Elliot immediately sobered. He took out his phone from the pocket of his trousers with a trembling hand and saw
the message he received from9e Avery.
‘I have an emergency and need to head back first. Help me keep this from Hayden. Don’t make him worry
Elliot desperately wanted to call Avery right away, but keeping Hayden from learning Avery’s departure was the23
priority.
“You mom… She…has an early body check this morning… Some of the tests require her to undergo them with an
empty stomach…so she headed out to the hospital early,” Elliot maintained his composure and came up with an
excuse. “You have summer camp today so let’s not be late. I will go find her later in the hospital, so don’t worry.”
Hayden wasn’t sure about pregnancy tests and took Elliot for his words.
As soon as the bodyguards sent Hayden off, Elliot instantly went to call Avery.
Her phone was turned off, so it was likely that she was still on the plane.
Meanwhile, in Aryadelle, Wanda stared at the stolen microchip in her hand with a smug, smile on her face
There was an extremely small logo on the chip that read: Super Brain.
It was the system that Jack had spent fortunes in developing; it was something that belonged to her and now, she
had finally taken it back after Avery had taken it from her for so many years. From this point onwards, she vowed to

“You sure are resourceful, Chelsea.” Wanda held onto the microchip tightly inside the palm of her hand,
“Considering how sincere you are in working with me, I won’t hold back against Avery! I assure you that you will be
the only woman remaining by Elliot Foster’s side.”
Chelsea grinned. “I believe you can do it. Once it’s done, I will sweeten the pot for you even more.”
Wanda laughed. “Avery must have already found out about this, and I can even picture her looking furious as ever.
She is just a pretty face with no skills at all. She only managed to get this far by depending on men; now that we
have taken the spine of her company, she has nothing left but a pile of rotten meat!”
In Tate Industries, Avery hurried back as soon as she landed. She had not slept for over twelve hours and was
looking tormented with her eyes red.
In the meeting room, all managers sat quietly and held their breath as Avery strode into the room with a cold
expression and an intimidating aura surrounding her.
She sat down in the president’s seat and was about to speak, when a sharp pain shot up her stomach. She curled
up with her hands on her abdomen in sweat and muttered, “it hurts… My belly… It hurts so much…”
