Chapter 2138
"Elliot, you have my parents. One thing, or ten, or even a hundred things, so long as I''m capable of
doing them, I will do anything for you. All I ask is that you let me live after I''m done. My mom has
diabetes and my stepfather has an old injury on his back, so he can''t work anymore. They are both
living off of the money I make. If I die, they won''t survive either." Natalie lowered her head and tears
rolled down her cheeks.
Chad watched her from a distance and felt nothing but the irony in the situation. He felt no
sympathy for Natalie, and her tears just looked like crocodile tears to him. If they took pity on her
and let her live, she would definitely seek revenge on Elliot in the future whenever she had the
chance. "I have ordered mywyer to draft up a contract. Sign it first, and I will consider if I''m going
to let you live," he looked at her while sitting in the office chair.
"What kind of contract?" Natalie asked nervously.
Elliot took out his phone to check the time, but he did not respond to her question.
Curious, Chad leaned over and whispered into Elliot’s ear, "Mr. Foster, are you nning to overwrite
the original contract you signed with her?"
"Yeah," Elliot said.
The two had not been loud, but Natalie was able to hear them. She was prey, and they had
cornered her. They had no intention of telling her anything and she would find out when thewyer
came to deliver the contract.

"I can sign to overwrite our previous contract. I wouldn''t be able to fulfill the target you set without
Dean Jennings'' help anyway." Natalie knew she had no other choice. Even if she was not willing to
do so, Elliot would force her to sign the contract because it was clear that Elliot wanted nothing to
do with her, and neither did he want her to be associated with Tate Industries any longer.
The mansion Mike bought for the five experts was about half an hour''s drive from where Avery
lived. It was in a rather remote area, and because it was a bungalow, there was more than enough
space for them to run their experiments.
When Avery arrived, she noticed that there was no one on the first floor and when she reached the
second floor, she heard people debating the mechanism behind the device inside Elliot''s head.
"That''s just unbelievable! If the device is controlled by someone on the outside, why is Elliot still
breathing when Ang died yesterday?"
"She might be dead, but there are other people in her team as well! Someone else must hold the
secret to this technique as well. If Elliot wasn''t controlled remotely, how are you going to exin
how the device works?"
"A brain is fundamentally different from a heart!"
"I never said they were the same. Didn''t Avery gather Ang''s research data? I read through them
all, and the device Ang created has pretty much restructured the neurons inside Elliot''s head..."
"I read the same data! The ''neurons'' that Ang created is just a machine! That''s why I am
proposing that someone is controlling the device remotely!"
They were absorbed in the discussion and after listening to them from outside the door, Avery
knocked and interrupted the debate.
"Avery, you arrived at a good time! How''s Elliot doing today?" Peter sat Avery down. " Chubby here
thinks that Elliot is a robot that''s being remotely controlled by someone else. Everything he says
and does..."
