That afternoon, Ben showed Elliot a photo of Avery and Wesley together
“Avery’s new boyfriend.”
Elliot glanced at the picture, and his eyes darkened as he asked, “Isn’t that Professor Hough’s
assistant?”
He took Ben’s phone from his hand and zoomed in.
“Do you know this man?” Ben asked as his interest rose. “Rumor has it that Avery took him around Tate
Industries all afternoon. They were walking side by side, chatting and laughing with each other. They
looked especially close to each other!”
Elliot passed the phone back to Ben and said, “I know him.”
“Oh. I think they look pretty good together,” Ben said deliberately when he saw Elliot’s expressionless
face. “One has a gentle aura, while the other is elegant”
Elliot looked up and shot a cold look at Ben.
“You never have anything nice to say, do you?”
“I‘m innocent! It‘s just that, looking at the jewel you picked for Avery makes me think you still have some
love for her,” Ben teased. “You didn‘t want to give her a necklace, earrings, a bracelet, or a ring because
you think those are things you give your lover. You ended up picking a brooch, which is fine, but you
went with such a huge diamond... Do you know what the jewelry designer said to me? He said that if
someone wore such a massive diamond brooch right on top of their heart, it‘d probably be able to block a
bullet.”
A wave of gloom instantly washed over Elliot‘s face.
“Are you giving her a birthday present or compensation for the divorce?” Ben said as he continued
poking fun at Elliot. “Do you think Avery would dare accept such a gift?”
“Forget it, then,” Elliot said.
He put down his knife and fork as he had lost his appetite.
“That‘s not what I meant... I heard from Chad that you gave Zoe a bag worth a few thousand dollars for
her birthday,” Ben sighed. “How could you give her something that cheap? Aren‘t you worried she‘d be
upset when she finds out that you gave Avery such a huge diamond?”
“Chad was the one who picked the gift. I didn‘t know how much it cost.”
“Weren’t you the one who signed off on it?”
“I didn’t take a good look at it.”
Ben was utterly speechless.
“Since you have no interest in Dr. Sanford, then hurry up and find a way to break up with her!” Ben
suggested. “I don‘t believe that there isn‘t a better doctor than her in the world.”
“That’s what’s giving me a headache,” Elliot said with furrowed brows. “You saw how much Shea
recovered after the surgery Zoe did on her. Every doctor I’ve met so far had no way of treating Shea, but
Zoe managed to do it.”
If it were not for the fact that Zoe could treat Shea, Elliot would never have given in to her threats.
“Wasn’t Avery also a student of Professor Hough‘s?” Ben asked.
“She was, but she started Alpha Technologies when she was in grad school,” Elliot said. “She’s a
businesswoman now.”
Ben shook his head and sighed, then said, “It would be great if Avery could save Shea.”
His words made Elliot‘s chest tighten.
As if something that perfect would happen!
His entire life, the heavens had never truly watched over him.
A week later, Zoe gave Avery a call and asked her to meet.
“No, thanks,” Avery refused without hesitation.
She already witnessed Zoe’s cunning and treacherous ways during their last meeting.
She was not about to give her another chance.
Zoe chuckled coldly, then said, “Since you won’t meet me, then let’s just talk on the phone! You said you
adopted your children, but my people searched through all the orphanages in Bridgedale and didn’t find
any information on the adoptions. You never adopted them. They’ re your biological children!”
