Chapter 260


    Avery''s eyes darted away for a brief moment, but then, she started chuckling, "Is this the first time you


    two slept together? It has been a long time since you went public with your rtionship. How innocent."


    Elliot''s expression darkened. "Speaking as if you have plenty of experience. Have you slept with any

    other men besides me?"


    She beamed at him, "Of course!"


    Hayden was a "man" too, after all.


    Theposure on Elliot''s face faded.


    "Avery Tate! I will be damned if Ie looking for you again!" he said through gritted teeth before


    storming out of the room.


    Avery watched as he disappeared, and the smile on her smile copsed. 2


    It was good that he would note looking for her again. That way, they could both live their separate


    lives, but why did she not feel happy about it at all? 2


    She held onto the nket and took a deep breath. It still smelt like him.


    The door swung open, and Mike strode in.


    "Avery, did Elliot do anything to you? Damn that guy! I was supposed to send you to the hospital, but


    he beat


    me to it!" Mike walked toward the bed and sat down before reaching over to touch her forehead. Her


    skin was cool to the touch, which meant that the fever had broken.


    "He was the one who sent me here?" Stunned, Avery''sshes shivered. 1


    "Yeah! He went looking for you at your house, and Hayden soaked him in water. He was drenched from


    head to toe, so I took him inside to change. That was when we discovered that you had a fever,"


    exined Mike. "What did he say to you just now? He looked so angry when he left!"


    Avery could not be bothered and simply said, "He didn''t say much. Why is my nket here as well?"


    "Elliot carried it over! He''s strong! I couldn''t even catch up to him while he was carrying you."


    Avery did not want to hear any more of Elliot and nced at the IV bag on the side. "There''s still one


    bag left. I will sleep for a bit."


    "Sleep!" Mike helped tuck her in.


    Three dayster, the sales department of Tate Industries received an order for drones.


    "Sterling Group wants to buy our drones!" The manager of the sales department checked the order


    over and over again and reported it immediately after making sure that there was no mistake.


    Mike took the information about the order and went directly to Avery.


    "Sterling Group''s purchasing department has ordered five thousand Storm series drones from us," Mike


    eximed. "What do they n to do with so many drones?"


    Avery took the order form from his hand and had a look.


    "Our Storm series drone''s selling price is set at neen thousand nine hundred and ny-nine per


    unit. Five thousand units will cost them ny-nine million nine hundred and ny-five thousand


    dors!" Mike took a deep breath and said, "Why don''t we upcharge them? If we charge them twenty


    thousand dors per unit, we will earn more than one billion dors from this order alone."


    Avery thought that she heard him wrong. She had originally thought that they ought to give discounts to


    clients with such big purchases.


    "You can''t be thinking about giving him a discount, can you? Avery, do you think that Elliot Foster would


    care about that money? Aren''t you underestimating his wealth?" Mike took the order form back and


    said,'' It''s a big order; I need to check with Chad."


    Avery watched as Mike left, and her brain started to run at high speeds. Elliot must know that his


    She nced at the calendar on her desk. The Autumn


    Festival was approaching. Could Elliot be nning to give a drone to each of his employees as a gift?
