Chapter 549 “Where’s Avery Tate?!” David roared. “You bunch of idiots! Find her and bring her to me!”
The bodyguards and assistant immediately began to search for Avery.
She was just standing by the tub and did not move. How did she suddenly disappear?
The assistant’s torch shone over the corpse soaking in the tub, and he dropped his phone to the35 ground.
“It’s a ghost! A ghost!”
Blood was oozing out of the corners of the corpse’s eyes ande8 lips.
It looked like the living dead and was terrifying!
The assistant fled in79 fear.
The bodyguards aimed their torches at the corpse’s face.
Nobody screamed, but they immediately began to flee the87 room.
“Sir! There are a bunch of helicopters outside!”
When the assistant fled to the first floor and discovered what was outside, he was even more7a
terrified!
David gritted his teeth, then raised his fun and began to shoot at the corpse’s head.
The corpse’s head began to tear apart as the bullets hit it.
This was no longer his beloved daughter. His daughter was the most beautiful woman in the world, and not a horrifying ghost!
As if that were not enough, David aimed his gun at the tub and shot away.
“Go to hell!”
“Let’s go, Sir! Things are beginning to heat up outside!” cried the assistant as he pulled at David’s arm. “It looks like they hired Yves Kant Security! It’s too late to call for backup now! We’re dead if we don’t hide ourselves!”
When David heard Yves Kant Security’s name, he calmly pulled out his phone and said, “Pay them double the amount! Elliot Foster can’t have more money than I do!”
Then, he dialed Yves Kant Security’s manager’s number.
“It’s useless even if you pay us ten times the amount, Mr. Grimes. It’s not that I don’t want

your money, but you’ve really messed up this time! A hacking group dug up all your dirty laundry through the years! Too many people were dragged into this. The scandals will be exposed if you don’t die. You can either die, or escape somewhere where nobody can find you. We’ll announce the news of your accidental death, then.”
After that, the call ended.
The color drained from David’s face.
He did not want to die. He still had a fortune to spend!
“Tsk!” David gritted his teeth and escaped out the back door.
His private jet was parked at the back of the mansion. He needed to leave this place immediately.
Ten minutes later, the mansion’s power returned to normal.
The darkness vanished and gave way to brightness.
“Avery!” Elliot cried out at the top of his lungs.
His heart raced as his reddened eyes glanced over the mess of dead servants scattered on the ground.
When he arrived on the second floor, his eyes immediately landed on the corpse in the tub.
The corpse’s bloody and torn up face made him take in a sharp, cold breath.
Then, he saw the bloody water in the tub…
Avery was soaking it in!
She was leaning against the corpse with a pale complexion, but her arms were bloody!
She was shot!
“Avery!” Elliot’s eyes welled up as he rushed over and carried Avery out of the tub. “Avery! Don’t sleep! I’ll take you to the hospital right away! You’ll be fine! You have to be fine!”
Avery’s body was as cold as a block of ice.
He could not feel a trace of life in her.
Once they were on the helicopter, the doctor they brought along immediately began to tend to her bullet wound.
Then, he reached out his finger and placed it under her nose.
The doctor’s action provoked Elliot.
“She’s alive. She has to be alive! She can’t be dead! She can’t!” Elliot growled.
The doctor retracted his hand, then looked sympathetically at Elliot and said, “It doesn’t look like she’s breathing, Mr. Foster.”
