Chapter 2102


    Mike was about to say something when he spotted Elliot from the corner of his eyes, so he winked


    at Avery.


    Avery turned around and saw Elliot walking toward them. She grinned and said, "Elliot, have you


    slept well?"


    "Yeah."


    In truth, Elliot had not slept at all. He had been spending all day either eating or sleeping and he


    could not possibly be asleep for that long. He used to go to the gym every day before, but now, he


    did not even dare to mention the idea of exercising. Seeing how fragile his body was at the moment,


    surviving alone was a luxury, so he did not bother considering exercising.


    "Do you want to go outside for some fresh air? Let''s go take a stroll!" she said, before ncing


    outside. "The sun has just gone down so the temperature is just right."


    He studied her face for a while, before agreeing.


    "The temperature is dropping, so make sure you two grab your jackets!" Mike yelled.


    When Elliot was fine, Mike had never bothered worrying about him, but since Elliot, at the moment,


    could not be viewed as a normal person, Mike could not help but worry for him. Avery would suffer if


    something were to happen to Elliot.


    "I''ll go get the jackets." Avery let go of Elliot''s hand and hurried back to the master bedroom to get


    their jackets.


    Once she was gone, Elliot turned his attention to Mike, and Mike met his gaze.


    The two stared at one another and the air crackled with tension.


    Mike was slightly confused as to why Elliot was staring at him after he had been considerate and


    had reminded him to wear a jacket out of concern that he would catch a cold. Mike touched his face


    and did not notice anything unusual; Mike decided he was just as handsome as his normal self and


    asked, "Why are you staring at me?"


    "I''m not staring," Elliot said. "It''s nice that you live here."


    "Oh, I see. You think I''m being the third wheel here and want to get rid of me, right? " Mike scowled.


    "That''s not it," Elliot said, but before he could finish, Avery had returned from the master bedroom


    with the jackets.


    "Wear this, Elliot! I bought this for youst time, and you haven''t tried it on! I don''t know if it fits."


    Avery brought Elliot the jacket and helped him put it on.


    She had bought it in ordance with his measurements in the past.


    He put on the jacket and thought it was slightly bigger than his current size, it was not visually


    displeasing as it was meant to be a casual look.


    "You look great in it. You have a good figure, and I have good sense," Averyplimented.


    Elliot stared dazedly at the smile on her face.


    She would always smile in front of him and he knew that that is not at all what she was like when


    she was out of his sight. She had saved all her smiles for him and had only spoken to Mike and the


    others about what was troubling her.

    That was not what a normal rtionship should be like.


    The two stepped out of the mansion after putting on their jackets.


    "Elliot, does your head hurt from time to time?" Avery took his hand and led him outside of the yard.


    A breeze went by and she immediately stilled and turned to zip his jacket up.


    "No." He paused to think about it for a few moments. "If I try not to think about it, I won''t even feel


    like something is controlling me."


    "Maybe you are already used to having that device in your brain." She took his hand again. "That


    device isn''t exactly a small one. Logically speaking, you should be


    sensing some sort of difort to have something of that size inside your body."
