Chapter 476


    Chapter 476 Avery’s heart ached at the sight of Elliot’s rigid back.


    “Whether or not this baby makes it, I hope you can maintain a calm demeanor. The risk of a


    miscarriage is natural with every pregnancy, and not ever childes to term sessfully.”


    She said this because she had a bad feeling inside of her heart.


    She had been pessimistic ever since she found out she was 25 pregnant.


    She got pregnant while undergoing medical treatment. If it were not for luck being on her side, the child


    would not make it under normal circumstances.


    Everything obtained from luck came with the possibility of9c loss.


    Avery’s words hurt Elliot.


    He turned to face her, then said, “Are you trying to make me feel better? Who exactly is the one who


    can’t stay calm? Didn’t you test me just now? Since you never wanted this child in the first ce, then


    let’s just act as if it’s already23 dead.”


    Then, he turned and stormed out of the room.


    After Elliot left, Mike entered the room and asked, “Why did he leave so soon? What did you talk


    about? He didn’t look like he was in a good mood. Did he really think the baby wasza gone?


    Avery’s eyes were unfocused and she was lost in a daze.

    “Mike… He’s actually… Not that awful to me… Is35 he?”


    Mike ced his hands on his hips, took a deep breath, then said, “Do you have feelings for him again?”


    Avery lowered her gaze. Her longshes fluttered as she said, “When you told him the baby was gone,


    he told me to take care of my health and that he won’t force me to get pregnant again.”


    “When he’s rude to you, you think he’s the worst. Now that he’s showing a hint of kindness, you think


    he’s a saint. I’m worried you’ve got Stockholm syndrome or something, Avery.”


    Avery shot Mike a cold look.


    “What are you ring at me for? I’m just reminding you to keep your guard up no matter how nice he is


    to you.”


    He pulled a chair up by the bed, then continued, “I’m begging you, Avery. No matter what you decide to


    do from now on, at least let me know about it! Won’t you cry yourself to death if you lost the baby?


    Even if you weren’t pregnant, you shouldn’t have gone to confront Wanda Tate


    like that! You want her dead, but she wants to kill you, too!”


    Avery admitted that she had acted too recklessly that day.


    It was ast minute decision to go see Wanda.


    She could not bring herself to let things slide.


    “I should’ve listened to you back then,” Avery said.


    “Exactly! You should’ve listened to me in the first ce! Everything I do is for your own good!


    “I should’ve listened to you and hired a few more bodyguards. If I had gone to the hotel today with more


    bodyguards than Wanda had, she would’ve been the one being thrown to the ground and not me,”


    Avery said.


    Mike was absolutely speechless.


    About half an hourter, Wanda appeared in Avery’s hospital room with her assistant , Faye Johnson to


    apologize.


    Faye fell to her knees in front of Avery’s bed.


    “I’m sorry, Miss Tate! It was all my fault! I’m disgusting! I deserve to die!” she cried as she pped


    herself in the face again and again.


    The sound of her palm smacking against her cheek echoed through the room.


    Avery watched the performance, then shifted her gaze andnded her eyes on Wanda’s face.


    “Let me guess what you’re ying at. If I take this to court, all you have to do is pay a fine. This is


    nothing much to you at all.” Avery had a hunch, then asked, “Who sent you here?”


    Wanda’s smile didn’t reach her eyes when she said, “Why are you acting all innocent? Elliot Foster still


    cares about you even after you’ve broken up. Did you give him some kind of love potion?”


    “I see… In that case, why aren’t you on your knees!?!” Avery snapped as her voice grew louder. “Even


    if your assistant ps herself rotten, nothing can hide the fact that you were the one who orchestrated


    the entire thing!”


    Elliot did not make Wandae to apologize to Avery.


    Avery needed rest, so he would not allow Wanda to disturb her peace during this crucial time in her


    recovery.


    Wanda was the one who brought her assistant to apologize herself because she was concerned for


    Faye’s safety.


    Who would have expected Avery to threaten her this way?!


    Wanda was afraid of escting things to the point of no return.


    She clenched her jaw, then fell to her knees.


    She silently swore in her heart that she would one day make Avery pay back today’s humiliation ten


    fold!


    As Avery sat up in bed and watched Wanda kneeling in front of her, the unhappiness in her heart


    subsided.
