Chapter 981


    Elliot was sending out wedding favors all the way to Avery''spany. How nice of him.


    "It''s not set in stone yet!" Avery said, embarrassed.


    "Huh? Isn''t it supposed to be on 12 June?" eximed the receptionist in shock. "I asked the people


    from Sterling Group and they said you and Mr. Foster are getting married on 12 June!"


    Avery was speechless.


    "D*mn it!" she thought.


    Even though she did not know that she was getting married on 12 June, Elliot''s employees already


    knew all about it.


    They had only agreed to get their marriage license on 7 July, but the wedding date would depend on


    the wedding preparations.


    However, Elliot decided to hold the wedding on 12 June but did not tell her about it.


    The moment Avery stepped into her office, she immediately called Elliot.


    Elliot answered the call and said in a deep voice, "I was just about to call you, Avery. I''ve sent the


    design sketch for the wedding gown over to you. Take a look."


    "That was fast!" Avery was so surprised that she forgot the main reason she had called him. "I''ll look at


    it right now."


    Then, she hung up the phone.


    She opened her messages and saw the few sketches of the wedding gown that Elliot sent over.


    Once she was done looking through them, she called him again.


    "Did the designer from yesterday design these? They look pretty good."


    "Shall I confirm them, then?"


    "Sure." Avery was not picky. She just wanted something simple and elegant.


    To her, a wedding is a sacred asion.


    The gown designs that Elliot sent over satisfied her basic requirements.


    "My vice president looked into it and said that 12 June is a good day for the wedding," Elliot said. "What


    do you think?"


    "So it was your vice president who set the date. My entire staff already knows that we''re getting


    married on 12 June now.” Avery walked over to her desk and took a seat. "Let''s go with 12 June, then!


    Although, won''t we be short on time?"


    "It shouldn''t be a problem." Elliot chuckled lightly. "As long as we spend some money, we should be


    able to get married tomorrow if we wanted to."


    Avery''s cheeks flushed slightly. She changed the subject =d$ asked, "Do you want to invite your


    brother and nephew to the wedding?"


    "There''s no need for us to contact them." Elliot’s tone turned cold. "Seeing them would remind me that


    they were the ones who drove my mother to her death. My mother''s biggest wish was for me to get


    married and start a family. It''s a shame she isn’t around to see it."


    Avery was touched. "Were you and your mother close?" "She loved me very much," Elliot said


    hoarsely. "I know very well who treats me well. Apart from my mother, you''re the one who treats me


    best."


    Avery was filled with mixed feelings as she felt her eyes well up, "I''m always picking fights with you.


    Why do you think I''m good to you?"


    "Even if we fight all the time, I can feel that you care about me." There was a hint of stubbornness in


    Elliot''s voice.


    Avery''s breathing turned heavy. She no longer wanted to hide her feelings. "I really do care about you,


    Elliot. Perhaps even more than you think."


    Elliot was very happy with her response.


    "You and the kids are all I have left, Avery," he said.


    It was a tender moment, but Avery thought of his and Cole''s DNA test.

    The results would be out in a week.


    She was curious. If Elliot was not a Foster, then who was his family?
