Chapter 1384
Mike insisted, "I couldn''t have gotten the wrong information. He never flew from Ylore."
"To hell with him!" the bodyguard cursed." None of us were able to get through to him."
"How is Avery''s condition?" Mike did not care that much about Jed and was more concerned for Avery.
"Is she able to talk? I''d like to hear her voice."
The bodyguard came into the ward with his cell phone while the doctor was checking Avery''s
temperature and blood pressure.
Although her eyes were open, they were still a little lifeless.
"I''m afraid she can''t talk to you now, but I''ll ask her to call you back when she feels better," the
bodyguard ended the call immediately after.
It did not take long before Wesley came calling again.
The bodyguard stood outside the door of the ward and answered the phone. "She’s awake, but she
can’t talk to you on the phone right now. I don''t think she’spletely back to her senses yet."
"That''s normal after surgery. She''ll probably be much better tomorrow."
"Wesley, you probably know Jed too, right? He sent a message to Miss Tate and said that he was
going back to Bridgedale, but Mike did some investigating and informed me that Jed didn''t go back to
Bridgedale. What do you think is going on? ” the bodyguard asked.
"I just called him, but his phone was switched off." "Then do you know his address?"
"No, unfortunately," Wesley said. "Jed is supposed to be a trustworthy person, or else Avery wouldn''t
have sought his help."
"Then why did he send such a message to her? And if he isn''t at Bridgedale, where could he be?" The
bodyguard wanted an answer to those questions.
"Why don''t you go to his hotel?"
"I did! I did just this morning, but there was a ''Do Not Disturb'' sign on it." The bodyguard paused and
then continued, "I''ll check again at the hotel. Mike was sure that Jed didn''t leave, and if he didn''t, the
only ce he could be is in the hotel..."
The bodyguard was starting to feel uneasy and there was cold sweat on his back.
Once the call was over, the bodyguard returned to the ward.

The doctor had just finished checking Avery''s condition ?d.
The doctor was gone, leaving Elliot as the only person with her by the hospital bed.
The bodyguard put Avery''s mobile phone on the table.
"Rest, and don''t think too much. I''ll go and get some dinner," the bodyguard said. He then turned to
Elliot and asked, "Would you like me to get some for you too?"
"No thanks," Elliot said. He was not feeling hungry yet.
"Right. I''ll be back soon." He left the ward soon after.
Elliot looked at Avery after the bodyguard left.
"I know you have a headache right now, so don''t think about anything." He held her hand which had the
intravenous drip." Gary promised to let you leave, so you can go once you feel better."
"Okay. I miss home..." A sharp pain radiated from her head when she opened her mouth.
Her frown eased and she nodded softly.
At the hotel, the bodyguard came to the room where Jed stayed at and saw the same ''Do Not Disturb''
sign hanging on the door.
The bodyguard pressed the doorbell, and waited for a moment, but received no response.
He started to feel that something was fishy. If someone was inside the room, they should have
answered the door to see who it was.
The bodyguard went to the room manager.
The room manager took the card and swiped the door open. As soon as the bodyguard pushed open
the door, the scene inside made his hair stand on end!
Back at the hospital, Elliot’s cell phone started to ring, and he answered it immediately after seeing that
the caller was Avery’s bodyguard.
Elliot walked out of the ward as soon as he got the news.
