Chapter 653


    Avery held onto her phone thoughtfully.


    She could sense Ben''s change in attitude towards her. He had always been polite with her, but he


    sounded as though he was reluctant to talk to her and appeared to despise her in the phone call just


    now.


    Was it because she was in Caesar Hotel the night before? But she hadn''t done anything in the hotel, so


    why would Ben be angry with her? Perhaps he thought that it was inappropriate for her to be in a hotel

    on her own?


    Up until this point, Avery still couldn''t make sense of why the thief would call her to the hotel. The thief


    had not done anything to her and simply put her to sleep with sedatives.


    She went to the hospital for a check-up the day before and luckily, the dose was minimal and had no


    effect on her body.


    Meanwhile, in Sterling Group.


    Chelsea brought a cup of coffee and set it down before Elliot.


    "Elliot, I talked to Ben just now," she said," he thinks that you are giving too much and getting too little


    in return; aside from that, your work is being dyed because of her all the time..."


    "It can''t be because of that," Elliot scowled and argued, "there has to be another reason that causes his


    sudden hatred towards Avery."


    Chelsea suddenly felt a little scared as she studied the distrustful expression on Elliot’s handsome


    face.


    No matter the time and asion, this was a man who remained highly alert and defensive; it was


    extremely difficult to lie to him.


    "I heard that you were in a gathering with himst night?” Elliot looked up and stared sharply at


    Chelsea.


    "Yes. I wasn''t feeling so wellst night, so I asked for his help to keep my client''spany. Both of us


    had a bit too much to drink.”


    "Nothing else happened?" Elliot stared at her face, trying to determine if she was lying.


    "Nothing... Elliot, why don’t you get back to work first? Once the two of you calm down, you should


    talk." Worried that Elliot would notice something was wrong, Chelsea changed the topic and said, "by


    the way, Nora''s injury has mostly recovered, so I will tell her toe to work tomorrow."


    Elliot turned his attention back to theputer screen. "Go back to work."


    Chelsea stepped out of his office :f(


    ''Does he not even care about women''s faces? But what if Avery''s face is ruined? Will he still love her


    then?'' She thought.


    A weekter, the entertainment show that La and Eric had gone on was aired.


    Because of how popr Eric was, the show was instantly the talk of the town and La became


    famous because of it as well.


    La was adorable-looking and though she was not particrly lively, she was


    sharp-tongued. As soon as the show was aired, she instantly became the sweetheart of the country.


    ''I want a daughter like that! Her parents must be really good-looking! La is so pretty!''


    ''Not only is she pretty, she is so cool as well! She''s so smart! I love her! Ohhh! This makes me want to


    have my own daughter!''


    ''Wake up! You can''t give birth to a baby as cute as La!’


    It''s not an exaggeration to say that La looks much better than some actresses, is it?''


    ''How can you evenpare La to those stics? Set La apart from them! Hmph!;


    As La became famous on the inte, some of theizens began researching her parents.


    However, the production team


    was extremely discreet about this, so no one could find any information despite their effort.


    Coincidentally, a sex tape of a couple appeared on the inte. The resolution of the video was poor


    but it was clear enough for one to notice that the woman on the video was naked and had dor bills all


    over her body.


    The side of her face was directed at the camera and everyone could tell that it was Avery; aside from


    that, her swollen belly and her moaning voice were further proof that it was her.
