Elliot and Avery

Chapter 326

The next day, Elliot showed up at the intensive care unit first thing in the morning.

After drinking the soup that Mrs. Scarlet made her the night before, Shea’s mind turned cloudy.

She felt drained and fell asleep.

When she woke up after a night of sleep, her eyes were lifeless.

That was until Elliot appeared.

“How are you feeling today, Shea? Does your head hurt?”

His gentle, familiar voice made the emotion return to Shea’s face.

“Why isn’t Avery coming to see me, Big Brother?” she asked dejectedly.

Elliot’s brows furrowed slightly, and the tenderness in his eyes disappeared.

“She won’t come to see you. Don’t think about her or her children anymore, Shea.”

She was even more upset now.

“None of you believe me… Avery spoke to me. She asked me a lot of questions…”

Elliot’s heart ached at the sight of his sister’s sickly complexion.

“It’s not that I don’t believe you. Perhaps she really did speak to you, but it was only in your dreams.”

“Really?” Shea glanced at Elliot, as if in a trance.

Was it all truly just a dream?

“I always dream of our childhood, but I come back to reality when I wake up. No matter how real the

sights and sounds feel, it’s all still just a dream. None of it is real,” Elliot explained patiently.

Shea lowered her gaze, as if she was processing and trying to accept his words.

Elliot left the hospital at 10 a.m. and made his way to Sterling Group.

Mrs. Scarlet was taking care of Shea, so he was not worried.

Shea was a little downcasted today, but it was still a more suitable mood to be in during recovery

compared to the intense emotions from the day before.

Mrs. Scarlet mentioned that Zoe had prescribed some sedatives to Shea.

Perhaps this was the work of the medication?

Speaking of Zoe…

When Avery told him to live a good life with Zoe last night, he was so furious that he did not get a wink

of sleep.

However, his mind changed slightly after he had time to calm down.

When Elliot arrived at Sterling Group, he entered his office with Chad following closely behind

him.

“Tate Industries is in trouble, sir. Have you seen the news?” Chad asked.

“Not interested,” Elliot responded coldly.

Chad had found out about Elliot’s fight with Avery from Mike, so he was not surprised by his boss’s

reaction.

“Here’s the thing, Tate Industries released a public statement this morning announcing their decision to

recall all of the Storm Series drones,” Chad said cautiously as he observed Elliot’s expression. “Mike

called me this morning and wanted me to ask you if you’d like to return all the products we bought

before.”

Elliot turned on his computer, then raised his brows and said nonchalantly, “Do you know why Mike was

the one who contacted you?”

Of course Chad knew the reason, but he did not dare show it.

“Avery blocked’my number,” Elliot said with a bitter chuckle. “She can’t contact me, so she asked Mike

to do it.”

Chad was speechless.

He did not expect this at all!

Fighting aside, was there a need for something as childish as blocking someone’s number?!

“What would you like to do?” Chad saw Elliot’s broken heart through his cold laugh and tried to guess

what he was thinking. “Shall we return everything and let them suffer the loss?”

Elliot’s face froze.

“She won’t suffer from a monetary loss. I won’t return anything. Let her feel bad about it.”

Chad was dumbfounded.

It was getting harder for him to figure out the way his boss’s mind worked.

Did he want Avery to suffer, or did he feel bad about making Avery refund the money? This is property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

Chad called Mike when he walked out of the office.

“How did it go? What did Elliot Foster say?” Mike asked.

Chad adjusted his glasses, then said, “Make Avery unblock my boss’s number right away! He’s furious

about this.”

Mike held his head in his hand and said, “He won’t return the goods if she unblocks him?”

“That’s right,” Chad said with certainty.

Mike opened the door to Avery’s office.

There was nobody inside. Avery had left for the office first thing in the morning to deal with this fiasco.
