Chapter 2137
"Alright. Go to work!"
"Yeah." Avery grabbed her purse and jacket and headed out.
The temperature in Bridgedale had dropped drastically as though they had skipped autumn and
went straight into winter.
She went into the car and gave Wilson the address of her destination.
"Miss Tate, have you made peace with Hayden?"
"Not yet. I was out of line and if I was him, I would still be mad as well," Avery said casually. "He
likes chestnuts so let''s buy some on our way back in the evening." "Yeah. Last night, he was the
one who said he wanted to go to the drug store," Wilson said. "I didn''t realize itst night but after
thinking about it, I realized that he went to the drug store not because his cheek hurt, but because
he didn''t want you to feel overly guilty if it gets swollen."
Avery felt even worse when Wilson said.
"Miss Tate, I know you didn’t mean to hit him. It''s just too hard for you to be stuck between Elliot and
Hayden. No one on earth can handle their career and family affairs perfectly, so don''t feel too guilty
about it," Wilson consoled.
"You are getting better at consoling people. " Avery shot him a look.
Wilson flushed. "That''s because my wife is overjoyed after she got the car you bought her. She told
me to serve you well."
Avery could not help but chuckle. "Let me know if your wife wants anything else. I’ll buy her
anything she wants." "Don''t do that, Miss Tate. Aren''t you worried that people will talk? You might as
well just give me the money you want to use for buying gifts. My wife would be even happier if I
simply gave her the money."
"Hahaha. Alright.”
Meanwhile, in the Bridgedale branch of Tate Industries, Natalie was caught by surprise when she
saw Elliot and Chad.
The entire Jennings family was shaken from Ang''s suicide the day before, and Natalie''s n had
completely shattered into pieces.
She had originally nned to utilize Dean and Ang''s marriage to obtain Tate Industries, all while
trying to escape Dean''s control. To her bewilderment, with Ang dead, Dean was barely holding it
all together.
"Surprised, Natalie?" Chad broke the silence and said.

Natalie’s mouth twitched as her expression shifted from one to another.
"Why didn''t you tell me that you wereing? I am quite surprised," she said with a forced smile.
"Is there something you need? By the way, how are you feeling, Mr. Foster?"
"You wanted to see me dead, right? So that you can find a way to make Tate Industries yours?”
Elliot instantly exposed her pretenses.
"We don''t trust one another anymore, so I don''t care even if you try to humiliate me with the most
vicious words. I can try to exin myself, but you just insist that I''m the culprit behind everything
bad that has ever happened even when you have no proof to support that im. Does that really
mean that I did it?" Natalie protested.
"Natalie, how re your parents doing overseas?" Elliot changed the subject.
Natalie paused for a moment, before realizing that something might have happened. She hurried to
the corner of the office to call her mother.
"Sorry. The number you have dialed cannot be reached at the moment. Please try againter."
"What did you do to my mom?!" Natalie screamed.
"As you said, we don''t trust one another anymore. I can try to exin myself, but you would still
suspect me even when you have no proof to support that im." Elliot used her words against her.
"Why don''t you try calling your step-father?"
"There''s no need! You must have kidnapped the two of them!" Natalie grabbed onto her phone
tightly and hissed, "Elliot Foster, you should have punished me and only me for what I did! What
kind of a man are you to kidnap my parents?!"
"You''ve finally admitted that you did it." Elliot stared at her steadily. "A vicious woman like you
doesn''t get to ask me what kind of a man I am."
"Elliot, let my parents go! Let them go!" Natalie broke down in tears. "I admit defeat. I failed. I will
dly ept death, but my parents are innocent!"
"You deserve to die, but before that, I will need you to do one thing for me," Elliot said coldly.
