In the special care unit at the hospital, Wesley’s body was covered in bandages and his eyes were
swollen and bloody.
There was a separate bandage on his hand that clearly showed that he was missing a finger.
Layla and Hayden were not allowed to enter the room, so the bodyguard was watching them outside.
On the other hand, Shea entered the room. She widened her bright eyes and stared at the man on the
hospital bed, but could not recognize him even after watching him closely.
“Who… Who is this?” she asked softly as she was afraid to disturb the patient on the bed.
Mike turned around and saw her shock, so he walked her to the door and said, “That’s Wesley. Shea,
go outside…”
Shea instantly broke down.She shoved Mike aside, then ran over to the bed as tears rolled down her
face.
“Wesley! What happened to you? Who did this to you?” She wanted to hold his hand, but she was
afraid of touching his wounds.
In the end, she grabbed onto the blanket and said, “The sunflower you gave me last time… You said it
was a symbol of hope for me… I’ll give that hope back to you now, alright?”
Elliot’s emotions were a mess as he heard his sister’s sobs. He did not expect Wesley to be tortured to
this degree.
Although he was not close to Wesley, it was still unbearable for Elliot to see him in this state. Not to
mention, Wesley meant a lot to Avery.
He wondered how upset Avery would be if she saw Wesley like this.
Elliot suddenly recalled the scene at the airport. If he had stopped Avery from getting to Bridgedale in
time and caused Wesley’s death, she would despise him!
Perhaps it was a good thing that she stuck to her decision and did not cause such a tragedy.
He would rather Avery owe him, than owe something to her himself.
However, now that she was trapped in the jaws of a monster, how could they guarantee her safety?
Could she end up with a worse fate than Wesley?
Their child… Would it be able to survive through such a dangerous situation?
The vein in Elliot’s forehead pulsed, and his back broke into a cold sweat.
“Don’t cry, Shea. He needs to rest in peace and quiet right now.” Elliot wrapped his hand around Shea’s
wrist and led her out of the room.
He needed to arrange for the children and Shea to settle down somewhere, then find a way to rescue
Avery.
“Hayden, take your sister and Shea home. Remember to stay there and don’t run around,” Mike
ordered Hayden. “You have to take the bodyguard with you if you leave.”
Hayden nodded his head.
“Are they going to your place or Avery’s?” Elliot asked Mike after Shea and the children left.
“Avery’s. Did you forget that she owns Alpha Technologies ?” Mike lifted his heavy eyelids, then said
wearily, “I already found out who took her.”
“Who was it?” Elliot rarely saw such a frustrated look on Mike’s face.
“His name is David Grimes. He comes from old money here in Bridgedale. I’m talking about a lot of
money… They’ve splurged through generations, but are still sitting on a fortune,” Mike said gloomily.
“He’s a huge pervert. Do you think he’ll take a liking to Avery?”
Elliot remained silent.
“I stayed up all night and thought about it,” Mike said with furrowed brows.
“That b*st*rd isn’t lacking in wealth, so it would be impossible for us to pay a ransom. Besides, there’s
no reason for us to give him any money. How could we do that after what he did to Wesley and is now
falsely imprisoning Avery? I just want to shoot a bullet through his d*mned skull!”
Elliot raised his brows. He had a different opinion.
“If we use force, they might hurt Avery. If money will solve the problem, I can give that to him.”
“I know you’re rich, but he won’t want a penny from you! What he wants is Avery!” Mike sneered.
“Avery is mine.” Elliot got into the car, then revealed his plan to Mike.
“My first plan is to get Bridgedale’s politicians to force Grimes to release Avery. The second plan is to
fight violence with violence.”
“Ha! You sure live up to your name.” Mike settled himself into the driver’s seat, then said, “I was about
to go talk to some politicians myself today! I’ve got some first on them. If they don’t make Grimes give
in, then I’ll make them international laughing stocks!”
Elliot scoffed at Mike’s usual tricks.
“You can go talk to them yourself.” Elliot got Mike to get out of the car, then said, “I’ll take the car and
work on my second plan.”
