Chapter 1889


    Lilith blushed. "I thought they weren''t back yet?"


    "They will be back the day after tomorrow. I''m just informing you ahead of time so that you won''t


    schedule work on that day."


    "Oh..." Lilith took her phone out to inform her manager, only to find numerous messages from


    Howie.


    [You are Elliot Foster''s sister?! You sure hid it well! So you are just modeling for fun?}


    [Lilith, I didn''t say anything mean to you before, right? If I did, I didn''t mean to. I just expected a lot


    from you because I see greatness in you.] [Coco called me in tears, saying that she wants to


    apologize to you. Call me when


    you see this... Or just message me... Or just reply tomorrow.]


    Lilith''s finger slid across the screen as she typed her reply.


    [I have something to do the day after tomorrow and I need a day off.]


    Howie replied right away.


    [Sure! Do you need a day off tomorrow as well? If not,e over to the office tomorrow. Let’s talk.]


    [Alright.]


    Elliot had been sleeping the entire day and woke up at dawn.


    He went downstairs and the first floor was quiet and there was no one in sight. He headed out to the


    yard and asked his bodyguard, "Where''re Mrs. Cooper and the kids?"


    "There''s an event in a water park nearby, La and Robert both wanted to go so Mrs. Cooper took


    them there."


    Elliot returned to his mansion. His heart was filled with sorrow as he stared at the empty house. His


    head throbbed with pain as he thought back to the argument he had had with Avery earlier in the


    morning and felt the sudden urge to drink.


    Half an hourter, Chad hurried over. "Mr. Foster, I know that you are in a foul mood but drinking


    isn''t good for you so don''t drink too much."


    Elliot had called Chad over for a drink, and he had picked up the wine bottle and poured himself a


    ss.


    "Chad, I''ve already promised La I would get Avery back, so I can''t give up." Elliot had already


    drunk two sses of wine before Chad arrived and was already slightly tipsy.


    "Mr. Foster, you probably would not give up even if you had not promised La that." Chad noticed


    that Elliot''s ss was empty = f(?YNR; filled it with wine.


    "Natalie told me that something is really wrong with Avery''s boyfriend..."


    "I think you shouldn''t put too much weight on what Natalie says. If Billy is indeed someone


    problematic, do you really think that Avery wouldn’t know or care?" Chad said. "Besides, they are


    just dating, not getting married. Maybe they will eventually just break up when they realize they are


    not meant to be."


    "Chad, I think I need to act." Elliot''s eyes gleamed with determination. "I told her to bring her


    boyfriend back to meet me and she refused. It''s been some time since she came back to Aryadelle


    and that guy has not followed her here. If they aren''t physically together right now, I am taking Avery


    away from him."


    Chad set the ss down in surprise, not knowing the extent of Elliot''s n.

    "How?" He swallowed hard. "By kidnapping her? Mr. Foster, if you do that, Avery is going to be


    really pissed off! Calm down and think of another way when you sober up."


    Elliot shot Chad an icy look. "You think I''m drunk? I''m not."


    "Oh..." Chad doubted that people who were drunk would actually admit that they were.


    "That Billy guy keeps trying to y the mysterious card, so I want to know if he would show up if I


    take Avery away." Elliot narrowed his eyes coldly.
