Chapter 1729


    The security guard recognized him and took the initiative to chat with him. "You are the husband of Miss Tate, the owner of house


    13, right? | remember you."


    Elliot''s eyes darkened awkwardly. "We divorced."


    "Oh... No wonder we don''t see Miss Tate aroundtely," the guard said as he


    retrieved the visitor form. "Are you going in?"


    "She isn''t staying here?" Elliot epted the form but did not fill it in right away.


    “Her door is always closed during my morning round, but | can''t say for sure.N?velDrama.Org (C) content.


    Maybe she is just resting at home. | think she got sick and is probably recovering from it.”


    Elliot immediately proceeded to fill in his information at the guard''s words and tried to sound as casual as possible when he


    asked, "When did you hear of her falling sick?"


    “About two months ago! She hired a new nanny, and I''ve spoken to that person a couple of times. She is a nurse, and she was


    hired to care for Miss Tate," said the guard as he studied the information Elliot had written down, before opening the gates for


    him.


    Taking note of what the guard said, Elliot strode into the residential area.


    Avery had gotten sick two months ago and even hired a nurse to take care of her.


    Her situation had to be critical for her to have hired an in-house nurse.


    Elliot hurried toward her mansion, and as the guard had said, the door was closed. The yard was abandoned, and there were no


    clothes hanging on the second floor''s balcony. Through the windows, he could see that every door inside the mansion was shut,


    and there was no sign of anyone living in it.


    He stood under the sun and waited, not knowing what he was waiting for. He could have rung the doorbell to find out if there was


    truly no one inside, but he did not.


    His instinct told him that there was no one in. Avery was not there, but where could she be?


    He stayed for another ten minutes, before finally leaving.


    By the time Mike hurried arrived at the resort, Avery had recovered from her earlier shock and frustration.


    "I''m fine, Mike," she said calmly. "It just feels kind of horrible to hear that someone wants to bring mypany down to their


    feet."


    "Who? Who said that?!" Mike roared furiously.


    "The people around her called her Ms.


    Jennings,” Avery said. "She is in charge of all matters concerning Tate Industries ?a+; WKT,; is currently getting ready to set up a


    branch here in Bridgedale.”


    “Natalie Jennings!" growled Mike. "Elliot hired her himself. | don''t know if those two knew each other before this, but Elliot trusts


    her.


    The thought of having to face this woman gave Avery a pounding headache.


    "| didn''t know that she stays here as well.


    Let''s move to a different ce!” Mike suggested.


    They had no clue how long Natalie


    was going to stay at the resort, but if


    she was here to set up.adhratich) She

    half a month. If the team had chosen


    to stay at the resort, there was a high


    chance of running into Natalie.

    Mike was not personally afraid of Natalie, but he did not want Avery toe into contact with her.


    After a moment of silence, Avery said," Let''s just go home! | will have my stitches removed soon, so it''s time to go back."


    "Sure. Let''s move back today."
