Chapter 539

“Where is he?!” Avery demanded coldly as she stood in the living room.

David signaled his underlings with his eyes, and they immediately went to fetch Wesley.

Moments later, Wesley was dragged out by two men in black.

Avery’s entire body stiffened as she could not believe her eyes.

Wesley was bloodied and covered in bruises. There was not one spot on his body that was untouched.

David shrugged, then explained, “You should thank me, Mis Tate. If I didn’t catch him in time, this idiot

would have already jumped off the cliff and turned into a rotten corpse!

“Jump off the cliff?!” Avery thought.

There was, in fact, a cliff outside the mansion.

Wesley actually tried to jump off of it!

Did he rather throw himself off the cliff than reveal her identity or continue being tortured?!

Tears instantly rolled down Avery’s cheeks.

“Wesley!” She rushed over to Wesley and held him in her arms. “Wesley! I’m sorry! It’s all my fault!”

Wesley did not move a muscle and was unconscious.

Avery sobbed with him in her arms, then quickly pulled herself together and snapped, “Get me a first

aid kit right away!”

David shot a look at his underlings, and they immediately fetched over a first aid kit.

Avery pushed through her heartache and tended to Wesley’s wounds.

Once she was done bandaging him, she glared at David with reddened eyes and said through gritted

teeth, “Get your men to take him to the hospital! Right now! Immediately! If he dies, I won’t help you

with anything even if you kill me!”

David impatiently waved at his underlings.

Very quickly, Wesley was taken away.

“I told you the idiot was the one who tried to jump off a cliff. That’s how he ended up like this.

“Shut up! Don’t think this will scare me! You’re the one who needs something from me right now!”

Avery’s head was throbbing in pain, so she said, “I need to rest! Send me Wesley’s medical report

tomorrow, then we can talk!”

On the Baystream G650 private jet, Elliot’s eyes were shut as he rested in his seat.

After two sleepless nights, even the strongest bodies would not be able to handle this level of fatigue.

Layla and Hayden were filled with worry, so they stayed awake the entire time.

“Hayden, this is the first time I’ve been on such a luxurious plane!” Layla’s face was filled with

excitement and curiosity. “A plan like this should be really expensive, right?”

Hayden was disdained, and said, “I’ll buy you one when I grow up.”

“Okay! Hayden, do you think Mommy would be happy or mad when she finds out we came to see her?”

Layla’s two seconds of happiness disappeared as melancholy took over.

“We’ll call Uncle Mike first when we get there.”

“Okay!”

The jet landed in Bridgedale after a ten-hour flight.

At that moment, it was eight in the morning in Bridgedale.

Hayden and Layla were the first to notice Mike in the bustling arrival hall.

Elliot saw Mike’s haggard and gloomy face.

Were things really that serious?

The entourage got into two separate cars.

Elliot’s Adam’s apple bobbed in his throat, and he could not help but ask Mike, “What’s the situation

right now? Avery..”

“Wesley’s at the hospital. Let’s go see him first!” Mike said as he cut Elliot off mid-sentence, then added

irritatedly, “Those f*cking b*st*rds! We need to get Avery out of there as soon as possible!”
