Chapter 2240


    Sebastian was not familiar with Holly, but from their messages, he saw a name that made his eyes


    brighten— Ivy.


    Ivy was Elliot''s and Avery''s long-lost daughter.


    They had been in Ylore, looking for her, and that was how Natalie had set them up. They had


    almost died in the suburbs of a foreign country!


    After going through Natalie and Holly''s messages, Sebastian could roughly guess Holly''s identity.


    He was overjoyed. He felt as if he had just won a jackpot.


    The first thing he thought of doing was calling his father and giving him the news. His father would


    surely be very happy.


    After this thought appeared, he felt sad! He clearly hated his father and wanted to kill him. That way,


    no one could call him useless anymore. No one would use the Jennings family fortune to force him


    into obedience.


    However, why did the first thought he have was one which involved pleasing his father? He had just


    gotten a very important lead.


    He could have told Avery. If he wanted a reward, Avery would surely generously reward him.


    "Sir, are there any important messages on the phone?" The bodyguard noticed his tense


    expression. "Do we go back immediately, or do we continue looking for Natalie?"


    The other bodyguard said, "Sir, why don''t we head back? We won''t be able to do much here. You


    should hand over Natalie''s phone to your father, and then it will be done, right?"


    "Yes! You''re the only heir. Even if he thought you didn''t do well, he would surely not me you. Why


    do you have to continue suffering outside?"


    The bodyguard''sments helped Sebastiane to a decision. If he wanted to inherit Dean''s


    fortune, he would have to be in the same boat as Dean. Even if he helped Avery, Avery would at


    most reward him. However, how could this rewardpare to the Jennings'' family fortune?


    At that thought, he led the bodyguards down the hill.

    "Where could Natalie go? Could someone have located her before us and taken her away?" On the


    way down, they chatted. " I think Old Mr. Jennings would prefer to see Natalie''s body more than her


    phone."


    "But Natalie has vanished. We can''t find her. Think about it. Elliot Foster has been looking for his


    daughter for years, and yet, he has still yet to find her, right?" It''s a lot easier trying to locate a living


    person than a dead one. The dead are much harder to find."


    "Hmm." The bodyguard responded to his colleague before looking at Sebastian, "Sir, are we


    heading back to Bridgedale today or tomorrow? If we''re returning today…"


    "Tomorrow then! When we reach the hotel, it''ll already be dark anyway." Sebastian had been


    running about the entire day. He was exhausted. Other than that, he wanted to calm down and


    properly think about his next step.


    At seven in the evening, Sebastian arrived at the hotel. After having dinner at the restaurant on the


    third floor, he and his bodyguards returned to their respective rooms.


    He closed the door and unlocked Natalie''s phone. He read through the messages once more.


    This phone was the phone that Natalie had used for everything, and she would not have voluntarily


    left this phone behind. Something must have happened to her.


    That was good too. It saved him and his father the trouble of killing her themselves.


    After lying in bed, resting for a while, Sebastian picked his phone up, searched for Avery''s contact,


    and called her.


    He had to return to Bridgedale tomorrow. Before returning, he wanted to meet Avery.


    The call connected, and it took Avery a few seconds to answer it.


    "Sebastian, can I help you with anything?" Avery was washing Elliot''s hair.


    For the past week, not once had Elliot''s head touched water. In fact, his head had never touched


    water since he got injured.
