Chapter 606
When Avery heard Elliot’s voice, a chill ran down her back.
Did Elliot not go to work, or did he wait for her to wake up at home?
Avery awkwardly turned around and looked at him. Elliot was in a suit, with a serious expression on his
face.
The sun shone in through the window and fell on him, yet it made him look even more aloof.
"I did take your phone to send out an email, " Avery came clean, "I''ll admit that it''s wrong of me to take
your phone without your permission, but you did not talk to me before you boycotted Eric."
Avery admitted her mistakes, but she did not regret making them.
"Avery..."
"Why are you calling me? Are you trying to settle a score with me? I didn''t say I wanted to stay with you
thing go."
Elliot was at a loss of words upon hearing what Avery said.
Mrs. Cooper saw how they were arguing, she immediately came over to pacify the situation. "Avery,
lunch is ready. You should be hungry, right? Come and have lunch!"
Avery''s stomach grumbled before Avery could refuse. She did not have breakfast that morning, so she
was famished at that moment.
Ever since she got pregnant, her appetite increased tremendously. Even at times, she might feel
slightly nauseated, but that did not affect her appetite either.
Elliot at that moment felt as if a bucket of cold water had just been doused over him. All his emotions
calmed down.
"Master Elliot, go have some food too! Don''t get angry with Avery. She''s pregnant with a child now and
it''s tough for her too." After Avery left for the dining hall, Mrs. Cooper went to Elliot and took over the
cup of coffee from him.
Mrs. Cooper''s advice worked.
So, what if Avery took his phone and emailed reporters? It was not as if she sent out his nudes. It was
just a slight humiliation. Compared to his embarrassment, the child in Avery was obviously more
important.
In the dining hall. They sat opposite each other.
Avery was starving, so she buried her head >f+ ate with vigor.
"Slow down, don’t choke on your food," Elliot reminded with furrowed brows.
Avery paused for a while before calmly scooping a spoonful of soup and drinking it down.
Perhaps she had enough food already, she suddenly felt like talking to him.
"Elliot, I heard that you have a new staff member that looks like me."
"Are you talking about Chelsea''s cousin?"
"Do you think she looks like me?" Avery ced the bowl of soup down and calmly looked at him.
Elliot said, "Only on the outside."
"Oh, do you think she looks better than me?
Elliot looked up at her. "Have you had enough food already? You''re asking suchme questions."
"Why are you not answering me? If you say that she looks prettier, I won''t do anything to you. I''m not
like you, who gets angry so easily," Avery provoked, forcing Elliot to answer her question.
Elliot put down the utensils in his hand. He wiped his mouth with a napkin and said seriously, "If I think
that she''s prettier than you to the point that it''s dazzling, the womanying next to me in my bedst

night would be her and not you."
Avery was speechless. He could have just answered the question. Why must he bring up the incident
the night before?
Looking at her scrunched-up brows, Elliot teased, "Now who''s the one who said that they don''t get
angry easily?"
"I''m not angry. I just think that this is a little disgusting," Avery said what was making her unhappy,
"Could it be that they think I attracted you because of my looks? How absurd. I am so much better on
the inside."
Looking at how self-absorbed she was, the coldness in his eyes vanished. He teased in a hoarse voice,
"Yes, I was dazzled by your inner beautyst night."
Avery had goosebumps upon hearing what Elliot said.
"I''m full. I''ll make a move first."
"I''ll send you off." Elliot got up and chased after her.
