Chapter 1956

“Chad! Don’t panic! Elliot’s body hasn’t been found yet! Maybe he escaped long ago!” Ben Schaffer

said, wanting Chad to cheer up.

Chad took a deep breath and barely stood firm: “The door to go down from that house is locked from

the outside. The other exit in the basement is welded to death, my boss… how can he… Escape?! His

clothes were obviously given to Avery! It means that they were trapped in the basement together! At

least they both stayed in the basement for a long time, otherwise why would he take off his clothes to

Avery? If he really escaped, why didn’t he contact us? Why didn’t he save Avery?!”

Chad said more and more excited.

“But there’s no body of him below!” Ben Schaffer pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose, “I don’t

believe he is dead! I don’t believe it!”

Nick saw the two of them quarreling, and immediately said: “You two, stop arguing. I’ll call the police

and let the police investigate. I’ll let the bodyguards keep an eye on it, and once I find Elliot’s

whereabouts, I’ll notify you immediately.”

“You two should go to the hospital to see Avery’s condition!” Nick continued, “I want to know whether

Avery is alive or dead. If she is still alive, then she can answer the questions you want to know.”

Ben glanced at the bungalow behind him, which was surrounded by Nick’s bodyguards.

If Elliot was still inside, Nick’s people would definitely be able to find him.

“Didn’t you say Avery is not dead? Let’s go to the hospital then!” Ben Schaffer grabbed Chad’s arm and

pulled him away, “When Avery wakes up, I’ll know where Elliot went!”

Chad tears, wet the lens.

He pushed Ben Schaffer’s hand away and reached out to take off his glasses.

“Brother Ben, that’s just what I said to deceive myself!” Chad didn’t wipe the tears from his glasses or

his face.

He stood in the mud, motionless.

“I know… I’m also deceiving myself.” Ben Schaffer’s eyes were scarlet, holding back tears, “As long as

Elliot and Avery are together, they won’t be so desperate.”

There are few people, even if they want to check, they can’t find anything.

Unless Avery wakes up… But, can she wake up?

After more than an hour’s drive, Avery was sent to the largest hospital in Yonroeville.

Hayden watched his mother being pushed into the emergency room, watched the door of the

emergency room close, and sweat and tears dripped down his angular facial features.

His heart was beating violently and his mind went blank.

He has been studying hard and making money all the time, not only because he wants to surpass

Elliot, but also because he wants to protect his mother and prevent her from being bullied by anyone.

But now, Elliot’s whereabouts are unknown, and his mother’s life and death are unknown. He seems to

have no support or motivation to continue working hard.

When Ben Schaffer and Chad arrived, Hayden was still standing at the door of the emergency room,

his body stiff as if he had turned into a statue.

“He’s been there for almost two hours.” The bodyguard yawned, “If you talk to him, he doesn’t care.”

Ben Schaffer pulled Chad and told him not to disturb him.

“Let him wait at the door.” Ben Schaffer understood Hayden’s pain, “Avery hasn’t come out after being

sent in for so long, does that mean there is still hope?”

Bodyguard: “What hope is there? Her body is cold… I touched it quietly.”

The bodyguard’s words were like a spell, making Hayden wake up from a rigid state. “My mother is not

dead! She is not dead!”
