Chapter 969


    Avery opened up her contacts and found her mother''s contact card.


    She sent a text to the number.


    [Elliot and I are back together, Mom. This time, we cleared up all of our misunderstandings. I believe


    that we won''t ever be apart again after this. I hope you''re doing well up in heaven. I''ll live a good life


    and raise the kids well.]


    After Avery sent the message, she put down her phone and prepared to go back to sleep.


    At that moment, something suddenly lit up in the room.


    She nced over to the source of light and saw Elliot''s phone screen shing on the


    nightstand.


    She could vaguely make out that he had received a text message, but she could not see who it was


    from or what it was about.


    He had never kept his phone from her. He would not get mad even if she looked through it.


    If his phone was by his pillow, she might have taken a look out of curiosity. However, she did not feel


    like getting out of bed and waking up, so she abandoned the thought of checking it out.


    She closed her eyes as she no was no longer afraid of any unknown terrors.


    At seven the next morning, Elliot slowly awakened from his slumber.


    When he saw Avery lying quietly next to him, his brows rxed and a tender smile appeared on his


    face.N?velDrama.Org owns all content.


    He was afraid of waking her, so he decided to lie down next to her for a while.


    He grabbed his phone from the nightstand and saw the new text message.


    The moment he finished reading the message, his expression instantly turned frighteningly ominous!


    An hourter, Avery groggily opened her eyes.


    She had trouble going back to sleep after she had woken up the night before, so she was not in a great


    mood and was still groggy.


    The scene in front of her made her even more certain that she was perhaps still dreaming and had not


    actually woken up yet.


    "You''re up?"


    The one who spoke was Roger Goldstein''s niece.


    As if she was shocked by an electric current, Avery immediately sobered up.


    "What is this woman doing in my room?!" thought Avery.


    She instantly sat up in bed and stared in shock at Elliot.


    Elliot had a cigarette in one h=h!>PNV<, while his other arm was wrapped around the woman.


    The pair stood by the bed and gazed at Avery as if she was a monkey in the zoo.


    "Didn''t you say you were leaving today, Avery? Hurry up, pack your bags and go!" Elliot said as he


    exhaled a faint ring of smoke.


    "What the hell are you saying, Elliot Foster?! " Avery''s hands clenched tightly around the covers as she


    reprimanded him at the top of her lungs. "You and this woman... Didn''t you say you weren''t close? Why


    are you holding her?! Didn''t you say you wanted us to get married? Am I remembering wrongly, or did


    you lie to me again?!"


    The intense argument could clearly be heard from outside the room.


    Soon after, Avery burst out of the room with her suitcase.


    With tears in her eyes, she dragged her suitcase and hurried toward the elevators.


    "Wait for me. Miss Tate!" Elliot''s bodyguard ran after her.


    Avery stood still in front of the elevator doors, then red at the bodyguard with reddened eyes. "Why


    are you following me?! Did your boss tell you toe and humiliate me?!"


    In the room just moments ago, Elliot had told her to her face that he would not marry her, and that all


    the sweet talk from the night before was just a ruse to get her in bed.


    The humiliation she had suffered in her life was nothingpared to the humiliation Elliot had put her


    through on this day.


    She almost wanted to p herself in the face!
