Chapter 340
The doors to the ck Rolls-Roice were locked shut.
Avery sat in the car filled with regret.
She must not have been fully awake when she entered the car that morning.
By the time she hopped it, the doors were already locked.
What was the meaning of this?
Was this an abduction?
"What do you want, Elliot?" Avery asked as she red at Elliot with furrowed brows.
Was it not the day of his engagement?
Where did he find time toe and see her?
"Do you know Eric Santos, Avery?" Elliot asked as he lifted his gaze to look at Avery with eyes that
sparkled. "Don''t lie to me!"
After Avery answered his call that morning, her phone had run out of battery and shut down.
She had no way of knowing what was happening online.
rm bells went off in Avery''s head at the sudden mention of Eric.
"I don''t. Why?"
She stared at Elliot''s familiar yet distant face and forced herself to stayposed.
"Why would he help you if you didn''t know him? " Elliot snapped as he spoke faster. "I saw his photo on
your phone before. You''ve never fawned over celebrities, but you liked him for some reason. Yet, you
say you don''t know each other. Do you think I''m an idiot?!
Avery was angered by his tone and retorted loudly, "What does my rtionship with him have anything
to do with you?!"
Her words instantly made Elliot calm down.
Was this her confession?
It would be amazing news if Avery actually knew Eric Santos.
"Help me contact him," Elliot said in a hoarse voice with a hint of a plea. "I''ll owe you one."
Avery could not hold back a scoff.
"I don’t know Eric Santos! Go find him yourself if you want!"
Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDra/ma.O(r)g!
"Avery!" "I won''t know him no matter how much you yell at me! Aren''t you getting engaged to Zoe
Sanford today? You can look for Eric Santos whenever you want, so why did you choose the day of
your engagement to do it? Your fiance would be crushed if you''rete!" Avery said.
Her words dragged a bitterugh out of Elliot.
His Adam''s apple rolled in his throat, then he said, "If you help me contact Eric Santos, then I’ll get
engaged to Zoe!"
"What does your engagement have anything to do with me?!" Avery mocked. " Are you actually using
that to negotiate with me? Do you think I still love you?!"
Her words pierced through Elliot''s heart.
He had a strong feeling that Avery definitely knew Eric Santos!
Otherwise, he would note out of hiding just to stand up for Tate Industries!
However, Avery was not willing to help him.
If she was in trouble and went to him for help, he would give it his all without hesitation.
They may be divorced, but they still once had a rtionship.
Why was she acting this heartless?
She was a cruel woman!
Elliot fought through his aching heart and dialed Zoe''s number on his phone.
The disappointment in Zoe''s heart saw a glimmer of hope when she saw Elliot''s name light up on her
phone screen.
"Where are you, Elliot? I''m at the hotel with Aunt Rosalie and the others. We couldn''t reach you this
morning. All the guests were already here, so we didn''t wait for you.
"I can''t go through with the engagement, Zoe," Elliot said in a calm, restrained voice. "I''m with Avery
right now. I realized that I still love her."
Avery sat frozen in the passenger seat in utter shock!
Was he insane?
He must have lost his mind!
Otherwise, how could he be doing this right now? How could he say those things?
He was making a fool out of everybody!
Zoe instantly burst into tears upon hearing Elliot’s words.
She did not expect this to be the result of her waiting an entire morning!
Avery Tate was a homewrecker!
She actually seduced Elliot away on the day of his engagement with her!
How was she supposed to exin everything to the guests now?
How would everyone look at her?
They would surely beughing behind her back!
"What''s wrong, Zoe?" Rosalie asked frantically when she saw Zoe crying uncontrobly.
At that moment, Henry walked over after answering a phone call.
