Chapter 504 It was noon in the city of Zirconia as a bulletproof car slowly made its way into the base of the Border

Control Force.

Avery sat in the car and curiously looked out at the scenery outside the window.

There were no colossal skyscrapers here. They were far from the hustle and bustle of the city. The only things here

were the most pristine beauty of nature and the soldiers that defended the31 country.

“Miss Tate, we’re far away from the city here. The environment’s a little rough, so you might have a tough time the

next couple of days,” said the director of the logistics department, Sean Tennant.

“It’s no trouble at all. It’s our company’s honor that you chose our28 products.”

Sean laughed and said, “We compared several of the drones produced by local companies and your company’s

products turned out to be the best in the end. Our deputy director, Mr. Lowe, demanded that we use your drones!”

Avery felt slightly embarrassed as she said, “It’s always been our goal to produce the best89 products.”

“By the way, Miss Tate, you mentioned on the phone that we could add some functions to drones based on our

needs… When do you think is the earliest you’d be able to deliver the goods?”

“We’ll first have to see what kind of functions you’d like to add, then I’ll have to discuss it with my director of

operations,” Averyec said.”

“Alright. Let’s get something to eat for now. Mr. Lowe will meet with you later.” 5a”Alright.”

After lunch, Mr. Lowe took Avery out for a stroll. As they walked, they talked and discussed their plans.

The base was massive. After a while of walking, Avery’s belly began to ache before her legs did. She had made a

last minute decision to come here, so she did not inform anyone at the base that she was pregnant.

However, now that she could no longer take another step, she had no choice but to reveal her condition to Mr.

Lowe.

When Mr. Lowe heard that Avery was pregnant, his eyes immediately shot to her abdomen.

She was wearing a plain pair of jeans and a long sleeved t-shirt. It was not a loose t-shirt, so it showed her flat belly.

“You’re barely three months pregnant, aren’t you, Miss Tate? You’re not showing at all! Why didn’t you just rest at

home? You could have sent someone else to come here!” Mr. Lowe,

puzzled.

Avery felt embarrassed to say that she had decided to come here on a whim in an effort to avoid Elliot.

“I’m just three months pregnant now. My checkup yesterday showed that everything was going well. Besides, I’m

usually working anyway, so I wanted to come here personally with the hopes of improving our collaboration,” Avery

explained after she composed herself. “I can tell you’re very serious about your work, Miss Tate. Tell you what, I’ll

call for a car and show you around the base,” suggested Mr. Lowe. “That sounds perfect. Thank you!”

At four in the afternoon, Avery woke up from her nap and began to work. She opened up her laptop, typed up a

document that included the points that Mr. Lowe had requested earlier and sent it to Mike. Mike replied to her email

right away. Mike: [How much longer do you plan on keeping your phone turned off?] Avery’s cheeks flushed in

embarrassment. Avery: [I didn’t notice.]

Mike: [Turn it on now, then!) Avery took a look at her phone, then put it back down.

Avery: (Why should I? I don’t need to use my phone here.) Mike: (Don’t you want to make a video call with the kids

tonight?]

Avery: (I can use my laptop for that.]

Mike was completely defeated.

After a moment of silence, he sent another email.

[By the way… Elliot Foster came by this morning looking for you, then he used Chad to threaten me and forced me

to tell him where you were… So… He’s gone to look for you.]

Avery: […]

Mike: [He took the 1 p.m. flight out earlier, so he should arrive at the Zirconia Airport around 4.30 p.m. in the

afternoon… Then, he’d be in Zirconia in about half an hour. Prepare yourself! I don’t think he’ll be able to get into

the base, but isn’t there a saying in Aryadelle about how money makes the world go round?]

Avery: (…)

The sound of someone knocking on her door drained the color from Avery’s face and left her in a daze of horror!

Was he not supposed to arrive in Zirconia at 4.30 p.m. later?!
