Chapter 546 Mike buried his face in his hands and burst into tears.

“I regret it! Why did I say those cruel words to her last night?!”

Elliot’s eyes welled up in tears at the thought of what happened the night before.

“She was helpless and scared. Even if we couldn’t go save her right away, I shouldn’t have said that! She must have

felt so hopeless after hearing what I said…” Mike was racked with guilt and could not control his35 emotions.

Elliot’s Adam’s apple bobbed in his throat and he said hoarsely, “Stop crying! Are you done cracking the system?”

Mike wiped his tears away, then glanced at the progress bar on his computere8 screen.

“Almost … It’ll be done before noon. My head hurts. What would I do if Avery’s really dead?”

Elliot did not have the courage to think of that79 possibility.

“How about you go home and take a shower?” Mike saw the stubble growing on Elliot’s chin and figured that he was

probably hurting more than himself.

It was because Avery was still carrying his87 child.

Elliot stood still in a daze as if he did not hear what Mike said.

“Go back and check on Shea and the kids,” Mike said in a louderza voice.

Elliot finally reacted and said, “Fine.”

When he walked to the door, Mike sighed and said, “Are you thinking of bringing that gun back with you? Avery’s

definitely alive! She’s strong, and she won’t die until she watches Grimes die a violent death!”

Elliot placed the gun down on the table, then walked out of the room.

Avery’s house in Bridgedale was located in the city’center’s wealthy neighborhood.

When she first bought the house, it was not to show off her wealth, but because of the area’s tight security.

Elliot was stuck at the neighborhood entrance. He called Mike, and Mike called Hayden.

Fifteen minutes later, Hayden and Layla arrived at the entrance hand in hand to pick him up.

Elliot’s emotions turned complicated. If Avery was dead… Then, what would happen to the children?

Of course he was willing to raise them himself, but they might reject him without Avery around.

“He looks really sad, Hayden!” Layla said softly as she saw Elliot from afar.

Hayden’s heart began to thump wildly in his chest. Did Elliot look like this because something had happened to their

mother?

Hayden and Layla had not seen Wesley’s horrible condition at the hospital yesterday, but Shea described it to them

when she came home after.

Hayden had a nightmare that Avery died last night.

Layla had the same dream, and the siblings ended up crying in each other’s arms.

After Hayden let Elliot into the neighborhood , Layla looked up at him and sobbed, “Where’s Mommy? Didn’t you go

and rescue her? Why isn’t she back yet?”

Elliot did not know how to answer Layla’s question.

Hayden could not handle the silence and said, “Did something happen to Mommy?”

“No. She’s fine. I came back to check on you guys and take a shower. I’ll bring her home tonight.” Elliot leaned

down and picked Layla up, then said, “Lead the way, Hayden.”

Hayden pursed his lips, then walked in front.

He held back his hostility for now. He needed Elliot to bring his mother home.

When they arrived at the house, Hayden opened the front door.

Elliot put Layla down and changed into a pair of house slippers.

Mrs. Scarlet, who had come along, immediately came up and greeted him.

“Where’s Shea?” Elliot asked after changing his shoes.

“She’s gone to the hospital to see Wesley,” answered Mrs. Scarlet. “I asked the bodyguard to take her, while I

stayed home to watch the kids.” Elliot nodded his head.
