Chapter 334 Five days later, Elliot showed up at the Sterling Group offices at ten in the morning as usual.

“Your engagement is tomorrow, sir. Don’t you want to take the day off?” asked Chad as he greeted Elliot.

“I don’t,” Elliot said, then walked through his office doors.

Chad followed closely behind him.

“Sir, I heard from Mike that they’ve successfully talked Bohmer Holdings into starting a new company here in

Aryadelle to supply high-end lenses to them.”

“If I’m not mistaken, doesn’t Bohmer Holdings work with Alpha Technologies?”

“That’s right. This shows just how good the relationship is between Miss Tate and the owner of Bohmer Holdings.

Otherwise, they wouldn’t come all the way to Aryadelle to set up a new company just for her,” Chad deduced. “I

looked into the head of Bohmer Holdings and found something interesting.

“What is it?” Elliot asked as his curiosity got the better of him.

“The current head of Bohmer Holdings is the son of Professor James Hough’s cousin,” Chad reported the findings of

his recent investigations. “Alpha Technologies’ success was not a coincidence, but the result of several people’s

hard work.”

Elliot’s brows furrowed.

of all his students, why did Professor Hough’s cousin’s son know Avery?

Did the professor introduce them, or was it purely coincidental?

“The problems that Tate Industries will have to face moving forward have nothing to do with their product quality,

but with their sales and reputation,” Chad continued. “I advised Mike to engage a professional marketing agency,

but he said Avery refused. She has always insisted on focusing on product quality…”

Elliot lifted his gaze to look at Chad, then asked, “Why are you reporting Tate Industries’ situation to me? Who

exactly do you work for?”

Chad was taken aback.

Who was the one who was listening so intently just moments ago?

Elliot withdrew his gaze, then turned on his computer and said, “Avery and I are officially over. You don’t need to

purposely report to me about her or her personal life.”

“Yes, sir.”

Chad walked out of Elliot’s office and bumped into Ben.

“The boss said that things were officially over between him and Avery,” Chad said. “We both know he’s in denial.”

Ben burst into laughter, then said, “When did you become so brave? How dare you mock your superior? Mike’s a

bad influence on you!”

“I know you won’t snitch on me to him. He’s about to get engaged tomorrow, but he’s in a terrible mood. I feel like

I’m watching a tragedy unfold.”

“It’s his own choice,” Ben said. “We should just sit back and watch the show.”

“I feel like you’re taking pleasure in his misfortune, Ben.”

“That’s nonsense. I’m thinking of forging his signature and sending an invitation to Avery,” Ben said as he

contemplated fanning the flames of the situation.

“He might not end up getting engaged to Zoe if that happens,” Chad reckoned. “Isn’t the reason why he’s so

against sending an invitation to Avery because he’s worried he’d regret his decision if he sees her?”

Ben coughed slightly, then patted Chad on the shoulder.

“What’s wrong, Ben? Don’t you think I’m right? I think…”

“Chad Rayner! Get in my office right now!” Elliot snapped coldly with a menacing expression on his face.

Chad felt like he died on the spot.

Around lunchtime, Avery received a call from the preschool.

“Miss Tate, Layla isn’t feeling too well, so we sent her home to get some rest. Please go home and take a look if you

have the time,” informed the teacher.

Avery instantly lost her appetite.

She put down her knife and fork, then picked up her bag and rushed home.

Everything was fine when she dropped the children off at school that morning.

Why was Layla suddenly feeling sick?

Avery called Hayden the moment she got into the car.

Hayden had a smartwatch that could make phone calls.

Her call was answered moments later.

“Hayden, your teacher called to tell me Layla isn’t feeling well. What’s going on?”

While Avery was speaking, she heard a whistling noise coming through the phone.

This meant that the children were not at home.
