NovelAppAvery had been like this ever since she had returned from dinner.
"Have | reached the end of the road? Am | really in such a desperate situation?" she thought.
Her heart was silent. She knew better than anyone about the dire situation she was in and the relationship she could not save. She could not save herself.
Even if Elliot regained his memories and called her to tell her that she was the love of his life, it was still pointless! In the face of death, everything seemed so small.
It was almost two in the morning, and she was about to turn off the lights when her phone lit up. It was a message.

When she saw Elliot's message, her heart thundered in her chest. She felt like she had just returned from the grave! He replied to the message she had sent, [ Wait a little longer.] For a long time, she just stared at the message. Ten minutes had passed, and she was still struggling with herself. She did not know whether she should send him a reply or not. Another ten minutes passed.
A full half an hour had passed before she made her decision. She had wanted to ask him about his plans, but it was late. He would be asleep by now.
It was too late to send him a message. It was too late for everything.
If only she had told him the truth, then he would not have come to Ylore. If he had not come here, he would not have fallen under Gary's control.
Maybe if she had listened to him and left Ylore, Hayden would not have snuck over and killed Christopher. This, in turn, would have ensured Elliot's freedom. He would not have been bound to Ylore.
Step after step, all of them had been wrong steps.
She suddenly felt a sharp excruciating pain in her head. She took a deep breath and pulled the drawer open. She found her painkillers and stuffed them in her mouth.
She did not know how long Elliot was going to make her wait.
Perhaps, she could even get her surgery done here. Regardless of whether Elliot returned to Aryadelle or not, she had to stay alive. She needed to live for her children.
The painkillers soon took effect. She switched off the lights by the night once the pain had died down.
A few hours later, it was soon dawn.

During breakfast, Avery told Jed that she was going to do the surgery first. Jed was excited.
"I didn't sleep well last night. I'll catch up on some sleep after breakfast." She had not gotten even a single minute's worth of sleep. She was extremely tired at that moment.
"Hmm. Don't worry. So long as you consent to the surgery, | can delay it for a couple of days," said Jed. "I'll book you a ward and an operation theater at the hospital." "Jed, thank you!" She lifted her heavy eyelids.
"You can thank me once the surgery is a success." Jed brought her a cup of warm milk. "If you can't eat anymore, then go to sleep, but drink up first." "Hmm." After breakfast, Jed went to the hospital.
When he entered the hospital, a familiar figure caught his attention. "Why is Ruby here?" he wondered. He could not help but follow her.
He allowed his curiosity to get the better of him, as Avery was not rushing to get her surgery done.
When he saw Ruby heading to the andrology department, Jed took a step forward and called after her, "Miss Ruby, are you here to visit the andrology department?"
