Chapter 533 The nanny and the bodyguard were also dumbfounded.
“Where are you going this late, Miss Tate?”
Avery’s entire body was rigid. She was unable to pretend that everything was fine, nor could she bring herself to
flash a fake smile at the children.
Her reddened eyes landed on Hayden as she said, “Take care of your sister,35 Hayden.”
Hayden had always been strong, but his mother’s face startled him.
No matter how mature he was, he was still just a five year olde8 boy.
He reached out to grab onto Avery’s sleeve, then said in a terrified and longing voice, “Where are you going,
Mommy?”
Under normal circumstances, Avery would patiently explain things to the children. Even if she had to tell a white lie,
she would still make sure to comfort their79 emotions.
However, her whole body was cold to the touch and her mind was unable to think straight!
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe only thing on her mind was that she had to go to Bridgedale and save Wesley, no matter the danger or the
price she had to87 pay!
Wesley was abducted because of her. He would not be suffering such inhumane torture if he had not known her!
The bloody, severed finger was like a sharp knife that was stabbing at her7a heart!
Mike’s cab pulled up in front of the villa.
He heard Layla’s shrill cry of misery even before he got out of the car, and his brows furrowed tightly.
He saw the children holding onto Avery’s arms, while she insisted on leaving with a suitcase in her hand.
Mike ran toward the heartbreaking scene and snatched the suitcase out of Avery’s hand.
“Have you lost your mind, Avery? Can’t you hear the kids crying?!” He threw her suitcase aside, then placed his
hands on his hips and demanded, “What exactly happened? I heard you got a package… Where is it?!”
Avery lowered her gaze, then walked to the side.
Mike followed closely behind her.”
I
“I signed for the package at one in the afternoon. If I’m not in Bridgedale in the next twenty four hours after the
package is delivered, then they’ll kill Wesley!” Avery’s eyes were pits of endless darkness. “I don’t have much time
left… Don’t stop me!”
Mike did not expect things to be this serious.
“I’m coming with you. Don’t tell me to stay home and watch the kids! These guys don’t sound like your average
punks, Avery. You’d be walking right into your own funeral if you go alone! It’s fine if you want to die by yourself, but
do you want to drag the baby you’re carrying along with you?!”
Avery’s eyes welled up in tears. She did not want to die, nor did she want to take such a huge risk!
However, she could not let Wesley die for her sake!
That would be more painful than her own death! “Wait for me at the front gate. I’ll go talk to the kids,” Mike said
into her ear, then made his way over to the children.
Ten minutes later, Mike walked to Avery’s side while carrying her suitcase.
‘Let’s go!”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAs Avery took her first step away from the house, she heard the sound of Layla wailing behind her.
She felt like her heart was broken into pieces!
She wanted to turn back for one last look at the children, but she did not have the courage to do so.
Now that she was being forced into a corner, the only thing she could do was move forward.
At the VIP lounge at the airport an hour later, Mike stared at the series of messages from Chad and did not know
how to reply to him.
“Do you want to give Elliot Foster a heads up about this, Avery?” Mike watched Avery’s cold face and said
reluctantly, “You two made up today, after all. It’d hurt him if you left without saying goodbye.”
Avery clenched her phone so tightly that her fingers turned pale.
It was not that she did not want to let Elliot know, but he would certainly not let her go if he found out.
“Someone’s calling you, Avery,” Mike said when he saw Aveyr’s phone light up.
Avery looked down and saw Elliot’s name flashing on her phone screen.
She pursed her lips, took a deep breath, then answered the call.
“I’m at the airport right now, Elliot. I’m going to Bridgedale.”
Elliot was silent for a few seconds, then snapped loudly and nervously, “What are you going to Bridgedale for?!
Don’t leave yet, Avery. I’m going to the airport right now! Let’s meet just once. Wait for me!”
