[Hahaha! That is quite good for George. You've helped us in the past. George is very diligent in his work as well. We feel especially
assured that he is the one protecting Layla. If you have any problems in the future, just let us know. There's no need to be too
polite with us.]
[Alright, Avery. Go to rest early.]
[Hmm. You too.]
Avery was prepared to go to bed after she was done texting.
Elliot's voice echoed behind her.
"You're still awake?" Elliot was not asleep yet. Even with his eyes closed, he could see the glare from the light coming from her
side, so he opened his eyes.
"Leah senta text. She said that her mother told her that Natalie has cto Avonsville." Avery turned her body to face Elliot.
"Even though Natalie has no power now, we still have to be careful. Since she missed her chance the last time, who knows how

"I'll send somebody to keep an eye on her tomorrow." Elliot dispelled her concerns easily. "She was in Aryadelle, and she couldn't
find a decent job. I've already blacklisted her. If she tries anything, I'll be the first to know. However, I've not received any
information on her. She probably hasn't done anything for the tbeing."
"Oh... Maybe she has just returned to the country!" Avery yawned as she said that. "Honey, let's sleep! I'm sleepy."
"Mm-hmm."
Elliot hugged her around her waist and patted her back gently with his big palm.
Soon, Avery's breathing gradually grew even.
Once she was sound asleep, Elliot gently pulled back his hand, turned his body over, grabbed his phone, and texted the detective.
[Are there any updates on Holly?]
The investigator replied, [Not yet. She had plastic surgery done, so it's not easy to find her.]
Elliot texted back, [Natalie has returned to the country. Keep a closer eye on her. She is definitely looking for Holly. Maybe she has
already found her.]
The investigator replied, [Alright.]
At ten in the morning the following day, Avery met Juliet at Tate Industries.
Upon meeting Juliet, the first impression Avery got of her was that Juliet was a very gentle girl.
She looked more charming than the photo on her resume. Her gaze was gentle, and she looked like a good girl who would play
things by the book.
Juliet was very tall, so she appeared to have a very statuesque and slender figure. She was tall, but she did not intimidate the
people around her.
"Have a seat, Juliet." Avery passed her a bottle of water. "Where did you cfrom? My staff toldthat you were not available
yesterday afternoon."

"Yes. | have just graduated this year. As of now, I'm still staying in the house | rented for college," Juliet replied cautiously while
looking at Avery.
"Hmm... You're from Ylore, but you're choosing to work in Aryadelle now. Does your family support that?" Avery asked.
"My family does support my work. Aryadelle is better than Ylore in all aspects. When | moved to attend college, my mother was the
one who cover here with me. She likes it here very much as well," Juliet replied in an orderly fashion.
"I've been to Ylore before. The capital of Ylore is actually not bad."
"Aside from the capital, Ylore is very poor. Aryadelle is still better."
"That's true. | saw on your resthat you won the gold medal at a tea competition in the past. You started studying tea
performance at a very young age, right?"
Avery asked her this question to satiate her curiosity. At the stime, she glanced at her wrist. "I see that you're majoring in
journalism in college."
