Elliot and Avery

Chapter 321

Chapter 321 The world began to spin around Elliot and he almost passed out.

Did Avery lie to him, or was Shea imagining things after the surgery?

Elliot pulled out his phone, called Zoe and told her to hurry back to the hospital.

Zoe had a bad feeling when she heard the anxiety in Elliot’s voice.

“Slow down, Elliot. Is there something wrong with Shea? She just woke up. She needs some time to

slowly recover.”

The apprehension in Elliot’s heart calmed down.

However, Shea did not have this strange reaction after her last surgery.

He hung up the phone, then returned to Shea’s bedside.

“You just got out of surgery, Shea. Don’t think too much. You’ll get a headache,” he said as he gazed

tenderly at Shea and smiled. “I can feel that you’re getting better.”

“My head hurts a little,” Shea said as she took a breath.

“Doctor Sanford’s on her way over. We’ll see if she can prescribe some painkillers.”

“I don’t want to see Doctor Sanford,” Shea said wearily as she lowered her gaze.

Elliot’s Adam’s apple rolled in his throat.

“Doctor Sanford was the one who operated on you, Shea. You know your manners. You should thank

her when she arrives later.”

“No…” Shea said stubbornly as she lifted her eyes to meet Elliot’s. “It was Avery… She was by my

side. I heard her talking to me… She asked me to talk to her and answer her questions… She was

gentle, unlike usual…”

“That was just an illusion, Shea. Avery’s been with another man since last night. There’s no way she

was with you.”

Elliot was beginning to feel anxious, but he did not show it.

He was worried that Shea would feel even more nervous if she saw him that way.

Shea was stunned when she heard his words.

An illusion?

Was it really just an illusion?

She clearly remembered Avery’s voice and the questions she asked her.

Avery told her that she had to stay awake, and that she could sleep later.

How could such a fresh, real memory be an illusion?

Zoe arrived half an hour later.

She checked Shea’s temperature and blood pressure, then said to Elliot, “Everything’s fine. Did she

say something just now?”

Elliot glanced at Shea, then walked onto the balcony with Zoe.

“She said that you weren’t the one who operated on her. She said Avery was with her the entire time

and talking to her,” Elliot explained softly in confusion. “If she remembered wrongly, then why didn’t she

say Mrs. Scarlet was the one who was talking to her? She’s very close with her.”

Elliot’s words sent shockwaves through Zoe’s entire body.

Was Avery Tate the one who operated on Shea?!

How was that possible?

How could Avery be that capable

She was young, and there were no public records of her clinical experience.

How was it possible for her to carry out such a complicated and intricate operation on Shea?

Zoe felt like she was about to lose her mind.

Before the energy escaped from her body, she composed herself and said, “Shea’s mistaken. I was the

one who was talking to her. I’ve mentioned before that we need to speak to the patient during a

craniotomy. It’s so that the surgeon is able to confirm the progress of the surgery and keep an eye on

the patient’s condition.”

After giving her excuse, Zoe closely studied Elliot’s reaction.

The expression on his face turned from being suspicious to that of acceptance.

“Let’s observe her for a few days,” he said.

If Zoe was not the one who did the surgery, then was it Avery?

However, Avery told him that she was not with Shea.

The only thing he could do for now was to accept Zoe’s answer.

“Don’t worry. It’s normal for her to say some odd things and have some mood swings right now,” Zoe

said as she tried to comfort him. “Her condition’s looking good. You should go home and rest!”

Elliot returned to the hospital room and did not leave until after he repeatedly instructed Mrs. Scarlet to

watch over Shea.

Once he was gone, Zoe immediately went to Shea and began brainwashing her.

“Shea, I was the one who operated on you. How could you say it was Avery Tate? It hurts me that

you’d say that to your brother!”
