Chapter 1845


    Avery thought that Elliot was leaving. Instead, he walked to where she was sitting and took a seat


    next to her.


    She barely gave it a thought and moved aside a little.


    "What are you doing?" Looking at the familiar face so close to her, she could not read his mind.


    "Why did you say that my apology to La was not sincere?" His tone was lower than before. "This


    is when I''m around. When I''m not around, what do you tell La about me?"


    "I tell her whatever you suspect I tell her. You really are confident if you think I tell the children only


    good things about you." Avery smiled. "If you want me to praise you, sure. Hand over the custody of


    the children to me, and I''ll praise you all you want."


    The calmness on his face was no longer there.


    "Avery, you said that no matter what I did, I would find an excuse for myself. Since when have I


    found excuses for myself? No matter what I do, I do it with a good conscience."


    "Conscience? You want to talk to me about conscience? You dare say you feel no guilt for what you


    did to me?" Avery said coldly.


    "Ivy is our daughter. She was in danger back then. Why was I going to look for her so wrong? You


    told everyone that you had problems with your sight, but I didn’t know about it. Avery, I believe that


    you won''t hold a grudge against me for no reason, so I went and got a recording of our


    conversation."


    Avery looked at him in the eyes, wanting to see if he had a guilty conscience or not.


    "I have the recording on my phone. Do you want to hear it?" He took the phone out. " This was the


    last phone call we had before our divorce. I really didn’t know that you had problems with your eyes,


    and I was very angry at you for asking for a divorce."


    "I have listened to it," Avery nced at his phone. "Elliot, are you sure the recording doesn’t have


    any problems?"


    "I got the telmunicationpany people to retrieve it. It was is exactly what I said to you." He


    held his phone tightly. " Back then, while we were speaking, there came a point when I could no


    longer hear you. The recording proves that you spoke only two lines ?g!:PIV< nothing more." "Are


    you sure?" Avery creased her brows." Are you sure you didn''t hear what I said back then? Are you


    sure the recording is real?"


    All content ? N/.?vel/Dr/ama.Org.


    "If I lied to you, and if the recording is fake, I''ll die on the spot whenever you curse me to death!" He


    swore to her.


    Seeing the determination in his gaze, Avery''s heart was beating wildly.


    Was he telling the truth? He did not look like he was lying.


    "Avery, do you loathe me so much because you told me over the phone that your eyes were having


    problems?" Elliot had thought about it countless times. The reason that their rtionship


    deteriorated was most likely because of this. "I don''t know whether your phone has problems, or it


    was my phone, but I really didn''t hear what you said." "I heard the recording. In the recording, it was


    only your voice, my voice couldn''t be heard." Avery gasped. "If it was a phone problem, then it must


    have been my phone''s problem."


    Seeing how this misunderstanding was finally resolved, Elliot''s heart felt as if he had been stabbed


    multiple times.


    Thinking back to how she had called him, telling him that she could not see, and how he had left her


    caused him to reflect on how helpless and heartbroken she must have felt.


    "But... my phone is fine!" She picked her phone up and said sufferingly, "I have been using this


    phone since before. I''m still


    using it! For the past two years, this phone has had no problems."


    Avery said that to prove that her phone most likely had no problems back then.


    If Elliot truly had not heard her back then, then that left only two possibilities: He was lying or there


    must be some other exnation to be found.
