Chapter 1169
Elliot held his phone and looked straight ahead at Chad.
"Mr. Foster, your phone is ringing. Why are you not answering it?" Chad ced Elliot’s lunch on his
desk. He smiled as a reminder.
Elliot’s expression was cold. He said in a cold and low voice, "Leave."
Chad realized that Elliot was not picking up the call because he was there, so he immediately left.
Elliot answered the call.
"Mr. Foster, I have sent the call recording to your email. Please have a look," The person on the other
end of the call said politely.
"Got it.” Elliot hung up and looked at his inbox. He clicked into the new email.
He could see the most recent recording. It was a call Avery made to Henry.
He yed the recording, and it was instantly yed out loud in his office.
"Henry, I will give you the things that you want as soon as possible!" Avery''s cold voice came through.
"Don''t hurt Adrian anymore! If you bully him again, I''ll make sure that you won''t get anything! He is your
family! Not mine! If he dies, you have to bury him! Not me!"
"When are you going to ask Elliot for the shares? Tell us a time."
"Are you so desperate for it?"
"We have to get it as soon as possible! The longer this drags out, the worse it is for us. Since you are
not going to give us a time, then, let us propose a time for you! How about a week? Just one week!"
"Okay. One week. Take good care of Adrian! If anything were to happen to him, don''t think about taking
Elliot’s shares!"
Instantly, his world was covered in darkness. It was as if someone had pressed pause on Elliot''s life.
His body stiffened. He could not think. He looked at the recording on his screen. He wanted to dig it out
with his bare hands.
Avery would give his shares to the person he hated the most because of Adrian! She knew that doing
this would infuriate him, yet she still promised Henry!
He remembered thest time he asked her between Adrian and him, who was more important to her,
and she replied that he was more important.
Is this what she meant?
He also recalled the previous time when Avery asked him if he would give her everything including his
At that time, he was confused why she mentioned hispany. At that moment, he finally understood!
It was because Henry asked her for hispany!
Turns out she had long nned to give them hispany in exchange for Adrian!
Was Adrian worth it? He was not!
Elliot''s eyes reddened. His h>a-;XNX> trembled. He yed the recording another time.
He knew that listening to it another time would hurt him even more, but he insisted on hearing it again.
He had to make sure that he was not hallucinating. He had to make sure that it was Avery’s voice in the
recording. He had to make sure that Adrian was more important than him in Avery''s heart!
After all, she always knew that thepany to him was more than a tool to earn money. It was his
family, friends, andrades!
Without Sterling Group, he would not be who he was that day!
How could Avery agree to Henry''s request because of Adrian? She kept saying that she loved him, was

this how she showed her love?
At one in the afternoon, Avery drove to Elliot’s mansion.
"Avery, have you had lunch? If you have not had lunch yet, I''ll go make some for you, " Mrs. Cooper
said with a smile, "Are you not going to the office in the afternoon? Robert is going for his vine
today."
"Then, I''ll take him to get his vine this afternoon," Avery said, "I''m not too hungry, make less food."
"Okay." Mrs. Cooper immediately headed to the kitchen.
Avery sat on the sofa and took her phone out. She added Cole back to her social media.
After adding him back as her friend, she sent Cole a message.
[I have discussed it with your father, but I have a request. If you can''t agree to this request, then we
have nothing to talk about anymore.]
