Chapter 2179


    He clenched his jaw to keep himself from screaming in pain.


    The children were already asleep and the mansion was surrounded by silence.


    There was no point in seeking the help of a medical professional in his condition, so he could only


    wait for the pain to pass.


    Elliot had thought that it would eventually fade with time... but half an hourter, it was still as


    excruciating.


    He fell to his knees and leaned against the wall. His mind began to stray and his body shivered like


    a leaf, yet still, he gritted his teeth and managed to not make a sound.


    He didn''t care if he died; at least Avery would be free, then.


    "Mr. Jennings, if we keep stimting his brain, his life might be threatened if this goes on too long."


    Liam had been keeping an eye on the time and reminded Dean once it had been half an hour.


    Dean nced at his phone. He had yet to receive any call from Avery.


    "Dad, why don''t I call Avery and ask her about this?" Concerned that they might identally kill


    Elliot, Sebastian whispered into Dean''s ear, "Elliot is not with Avery right now. Even if he is dying


    from the pain, he might just try to keep it from Avery. I will call Avery now and ask her to check on


    him..."


    Dean, too, did not want Elliot to die, or he might never get his 2.1 billion back.


    "Go," Dean said, and Sebastian immediately stepped out of theboratory with his phone.


    He went to a quiet corner and made a call to Avery.


    "Avery, call Elliot or anyone at his house right now to see what''s going on with him," Sebastian said


    hastily. "The members of Ang’s team said that they found a way to control Elliot and they''ve been


    running experiments for the past half an hour. I don''t know if it worked."

    Avery instantly lost herposure. She hung up and instantly tried to call Elliot.


    Elliot''s phone rang, but he couldn''t answer because he had already lost consciousness from the


    pain.


    The call automatically dropped after a while and an ominous feeling had taken over Avery.


    She knew that Elliot would definitelye to his phone if he was alright.


    Terrified, tears welled up in her eyes as she searched for Mrs. Cooper''s number and called her


    instead.


    "Mrs. Cooper, is Elliot home?"


    The tone of Avery''s voice had caused Mrs. Cooper to leap out of bed. "He is at home! He came


    home for dinner and stayed home after that!"


    "Go find him now! He didn’t answer his phone and I think something happened to him!" Avery said


    with a lump in her throat.


    "Okay, Avery. Don''t panic just yet. Maybe he had fallen asleep. It''ste now," Mrs. Cooper consoled


    her despite how frightened she felt as well.


    She ran all the way to the second floor and immediately spotted Elliot, who had passed out in the


    corridor.


    "Sir!" Mrs. Cooper screamed as she ran over,pletely forgetting that she was still on the phone


    with Avery.


    When Avery heard Mrs. Cooper''s scream, she already knew that something had happened to Elliot.
