Chapter 1235


    They came down from the mountain and sure enough it started to rain heavily.


    The skies were dark. It was only three in the afternoon, yet the skies were as dark as the skies at the


    end of the world.


    Ben looked at the rain pelting the window. His eyes turned wet.


    It was summer at that moment. A body would rot in less than a week. On top of that, there was such a


    huge storm. Forget a week, the body would surely be ruined today.


    Ben''s phone rang and he came out from his grieving. He took his phone out and wiped away his tears.


    He answered the call and Avery''s voice


    came from the other side. "Ben, where are you? Have you gotten news about Elliot? I just got off the


    ne. I''ming to look for you now."


    "Wait for me at the airport. I''lle to pick you up." Ben quickly collected his emotions and thought


    about how to console her.


    If she knew that Elliot had an ident in the mountains and that they could not find his body, she would


    surely lose it.


    Avery was standing at the entrance of the airport, looking at the storm. She was antsy and anxious.


    She did not dare to think what would happen if Elliot was really dead.


    However, at that moment, it seemed like the skies were falling on them. She could

    not suppress her sadness.


    If Elliot is dead, what was she going to do?


    She had no answer in her heart. The energy in her seemed to have been depleted as if she could fall


    over at any second.


    At that moment, she was hanging by a thread, betting that Elliot was still alive.


    Half an hourter, Ben appeared in front of her with a ck umbre.


    "Why are you carrying a ck umbre?" Avery was sensitive and fragile at that moment. Seeing ck


    objects felt as if she was seeing Elliot''s dead body.


    "I randomly bought it by the side of the road." Ben created an excuse. "Let''s head in and grab a seat."


    He kept the umbre and brought her to


    the airport.


    She was confused. She asked, "Have you found Elliot? Bring me to him! Even if it''s his dead body, I


    want to see it for myself!"


    "Avery, calm down."


    "I’m not going to!" Avery furrowed her brows, almost in tears. "How can I calm down? I nned to


    reunite him with Shea after her surgery >h&?SIW; exin myself. Now that Shea is recovering well and


    will soon be discharged, how could he die!"


    "I don’t want him to die either!” Ben was instantly overwhelmed by emotions too. ’’ But just because we


    don''t want it to happen, doesn''t mean it won''t happen.


    Avery, you are not a child. Not everything happens ording to our will!"


    Avery''s eyshes fluttered. Tears fell.


    She was stunned by his yelling. A momentter, she said hoarsely, "Is... he gone?"


    "From what I gather, he drove off a kilometer-tall mountain. There is no possibility of survival. I won''t


    take you there. It''s too dangerous. Elliot has already gotten in an ident. If you got in one too, what


    would happen to your children?"


    At that, Ben held her wrists tightly.


    Avery''s tears fell. Her beliefs were crushed.


    She did not cry out loud like Bed, nor did she insist on looking for Elliot''s body. After a moment of


    silence, her body went limp. She passed out.
