Chapter 1168


    At eleven in the morning, Avery got off work early to find a ce to change her phone screen.


    She found a repair shop about a kilometer away. She walked over and handed her phone to the staff


    there.


    She waited for about half an hour. Her phone with a new screen was returned to her.


    After she paid, she left the shop.


    It was just in time for lunch. She called Mike.


    "I''m outside, what do you want to eat? I''ll bring it back for you."


    Mike heard her voice and felt extremely awkward. If she knew that he had told


    Elliot about her, she would surely be mad.


    "I''m having lunch with some colleagues," Mike refused politely, "Why don''t you head home and rest


    after lunch!"


    "Hmm, then I''ll just head home." She could clearly sense Mike being aloof and distant from her, but her


    head hurt terribly, she did not have the energy to deal with it.


    After hanging up, she walked back to her office and drove away.


    She only had one week. She had to properly think about how she was going to bring that up to Elliot


    within the week.


    At the Sterling Group. Elliot pondered for about two hours. He decided he was not going to ask Avery


    about it. Just like what Mike said, even if he asked her, she would most likely not tell him.


    This thing could not have happened within the past two days. She had kept it a secret for so many


    days, how could she possibly tell him the truth at that moment? Unless he had evidence of her being


    threatened.


    Evidence was easy to find. All he needed to do was get the recording of the call between Avery, Henry,


    and Cole.


    He made a call, getting someone to investigate Avery''s calls.


    After the call, someone knocked on his door and entered his office.


    "Mr. Foster, what do you want to eat for lunch?" Chad entered.


    "I don''t have an appetite." Elliot''s face was pale. His tone was cold.


    Chad was a little rmed. He could not guess what had happened. "Then, I''ll just buy something that

    you might like."


    Then, he left Elliot''s office quickly.


    On the way to getting lunch, he dialed Ben." Ben, something is wrong with Mr. Foster."


    "What happened to him? He looked fine when I saw him this afternoon."


    "I asked him what he wanted for lunch. He said he did not have an appetite. More importantly, he was


    looking terrible," Chad said worryingly, "I don''t dare to ask about what happened, but I have a feeling


    that something terrible has happened."


    "Are you calling me to ask him what happened?" Ben did not know whether tough or cry.


    "Hmm. I am only a lowly assistant, but you are different," Chad said fawningly, "What do you want to


    eat? I''ll buy it for you too." "Okay! I''ll go check up on him. Buy me something light. My stomach hasn''t


    been doing well recently."


    After the call, Ben came to Elliot''s office. He pushed open the door =d''?PJS> entered. When he saw


    Elliot, he instantly understood why Chad was worried.


    Elliot looked terrible. He was apletely different person when he saw him that morning.


    "Elliot, get off work! Let''s go have lunch," Ben said in his usual passionate manner.


    "Chad went to get me lunch." Elliot rejected him.


    "Oh, then, I''ll get Chad to get me some too," Ben said. He pulled a chair over and sat opposite Elliot.


    "What happened? Why do you look unwell? Nothing is happening to thepany!" "Let me have some


    peace and quiet." "Okay, then. If you have anything, don''t keep it in. You can talk to me about it


    anytime!" Ben said, he then got up and left.


    About half an hourter, Elliot''s phone rang.


    At the same time, a knock came on the office door. Chad brought lunch and entered.
