Chapter 641

Shaun was sobbing through the phone and Avery knew that she had to hurry back. Her mind went blank
from the sudden turn of events. The core technology of Tate Industries had been stolen and the most
pathetic of it all was that they had no idea who was behind it.

The culprit had taken the opportunity of the absence of her and Mike since they had traveled overseas
for leisure.

The core technology of the company was stored in a microchip with layers of security barriers set within
it; even when stolen, the culprit might not be able to decode the content right away, but it would happen
eventually.

The world was never short of accidents, just like how she didn’t imagine that Zoe would commit46
suicide.

At seven in the morning, Hayden stepped out of his room and found the entire mansion in silence, as
though there was not another soul. He went over to Avery’s room and noticed that the bedsheet was in a
mess, but there was no one around.

“Mom!” Hayden shouted loudly.

Meanwhile, in the living room, Elliot was woken up by the shout. He got up from the couch through the
excruciating headache from the hangover and walked towards Hayden.

“Hayden, what’scd wrong?”

Hayden’s eyes reddened; without a care of their previous grudges, he asked anxiously, “my mom is
gone! Do you know where she is?”

Elliot immediately sobered. He took out his phone from the pocket of his trousers with a trembling hand
and saw the message he received from9e Avery.



‘I have an emergency and need to head back first. Help me keep this from Hayden. Don’t make him
worry

Elliot desperately wanted to call Avery right away, but keeping Hayden from learning Avery’s departure
was the priority.

“You mom… She…has an early body check this morning… Some of the tests require her to undergo
them with an empty stomach…so she headed out to the hospital early,” Elliot maintained his composure
and came up with an excuse. “You have summer camp today so let’s not be late. I will go find her later in
the hospital, so don’t worry.”

Hayden wasn’t sure about pregnancy tests and took Elliot for his words.

As soon as the bodyguards sent Hayden off, Elliot instantly went to call Avery.

Her phone was turned off, so it was likely that she was still on the plane.

Meanwhile, in Aryadelle, Wanda stared at the stolen microchip in her hand with a smug, smile on her
face

There was an extremely small logo on the chip that read: Super Brain.

It was the system that Jack had spent fortunes in developing; it was something that belonged to her and
now, she had finally taken it back after Avery had taken it from her for so many years. From this point
onwards, she vowed to stomp Tate Industries to the ground and defeat Avery

“You sure are resourceful, Chelsea.” Wanda held onto the microchip tightly inside the palm of her hand,
“Considering how sincere you are in working with me, I won’t hold back against Avery! I assure you that
you will be the only woman remaining by Elliot Foster’s side.”

Chelsea grinned. “I believe you can do it. Once it’s done, I will sweeten the pot for you even more.”



Wanda laughed. “Avery must have already found out about this, and I can even picture her looking
furious as ever. She is just a pretty face with no skills at all. She only managed to get this far by
depending on men; now that we have taken the spine of her company, she has nothing left but a pile of
rotten meat!”

In Tate Industries, Avery hurried back as soon as she landed. She had not slept for over twelve hours
and was looking tormented with her eyes red.

In the meeting room, all managers sat quietly and held their breath as Avery strode into the room with a
cold expression and an intimidating aura surrounding her.

She sat down in the president’s seat and was about to speak, when a sharp pain shot up her stomach.
She curled up with her hands on her abdomen in sweat and muttered, “it hurts… My belly… It hurts so
much…”
