Chapter 1282


    As the driver reached the bungalow, Elliot got out of the car.


    Ruby, in a bright red dress immediately came sauntering out of the door. "Elliot, how was your check-


    up?"


    "Nothing out of the ordinary, the doctor just told me to get more rest," replied Elliot.


    Ruby hooked Elliot''s arm as they walked into the living room, "Then you shouldn''t overexert yourself! If


    you can''t bring it up with my father, I can tell him! Daddy can''t force you to overwork yourself, you are


    more important to me than anything on this!" eximed Ruby.


    "Ruby, why are you dressed so magnificently today?" asked Elliot, changing the topic at hand.


    "There''s a surprise guest today! I can''t tell you who it is, but you''ll know soon enough," exined Ruby.


    "Your birthday ising up soon, what do you want for your present?" asked Elliot.


    Ruby blushed and said, "I can''t say explicitly what I want, I will like anything that you give me."


    Ruby had always managed to make Elliot feel at ease. Avery on the contrary was a woman who made


    Elliot''s head hurt just with the mention of her name


    Elliot''s mind told him that Ruby was better for him, but he could not help keep his heart from thinking


    about Avery.


    "Ruby, do you want to go out? If you are free this afternoon, why don’t we go out and pick out your


    present?" Asked Elliot.


    Ruby was of course ecstatic at Elliot’s suggestion. She jumped up and gave Elliot a peck on his chin,


    "Thanks, honey! I heard you haven''t had anything to eat, you must be starving. I made you some soup


    and some of your favorite dishes!"


    After finishing her dinner, Avery made her way to Ruby and Elliot''s residence.


    Avery of course did not park her car right at their gates. She made her way to an empty spot by the


    walls and got out of the car with a bag in hand.


    Avery took a deep breath as she approached the gates to their house and peeked through the gates.


    She saw the garden and the man-made fountain that was facing the gates and could not help but feel


    that a lot of thought was ced into the exterior of the house to make it so pleasing.


    Even though the sun had notpletely set, the house was already lit up.


    Avery could not make out what was happening inside the house, she could only confirm that there were


    people in the house.


    This belongs to N?velDrama.Org - ?.


    Avery bit down on her lip :b-;WNV? rang the doorbell.


    A nanny opened the gates and walked out to meet her.


    The moment the nanny saw who rang the bell, her brows furrowed together.


    She knew that she couldn''t let her into the house.


    "Ms. Tate, anything that happened between you and Mr. Foster is already in the past. Right now, he is


    Ms. Gould''s husband. They even consummated the marriage and both of them went out in the


    afternoon to pick out presents for Ms. Gould''s 21st birthday," said the nanny, her voice filled with


    disdain.


    "It''s normal for couples to consummate their marriage, why are you telling me this? Unless they


    actually haven''t consummated the marriage yet," retorted Avery.


    "You are not wee here! Please leave now!" said the nanny.


    "I''m here for Elliot, not you. If you want me to leave, ask him toe out and tell it to my face. Or ask


    Ruby toe out," said Avery.
