“It’s the weekend tomorrow. Let’s get the divorce settled on Monday!” Avery continued.
Faced with snazzynovel.com fervent impatience, Elliot nonchalantly pulled out a cigarette and lit it.
Avery furrowed snazzynovel.com brows. She could not figure out what snazzynovel.com was thinking.
Could it be that snazzynovel.com did not want to go through with the divorce?
Otherwise, snazzynovel.com would not be so indifferent.
Avery took a deep breath and said, “Can you really handle being cheated on? I wouldn’t want to see me for the rest of my life if I were you. You have to divorce me! You’d be an idiot not to!”
Elliot coolly exhaled a smoke ring as snazzynovel.com followed snazzynovel.com with his dark eyes, watching snazzynovel.com performance.
“Have you met with Chelsea? That must have p*ssed you off, right? That’s good because it was all my idea! I did it just to mess with you!”
Avery was adding fuel to the fire.
Mrs. Cooper was in a corner. Her heart was pounding as snazzynovel.com listened in.
Why was Avery digging snazzynovel.com own grave? Was snazzynovel.com having a mental breakdown because of the abortion?
If snazzynovel.com continued aggravating him, Elliot might just send snazzynovel.com to snazzynovel.com death.
At that thought, Mrs. Cooper could no longer stand aside. She walked over and said, “Madam Avery doesn’t mean any of this, Master Elliot… She must still be upset, so she’s lashing out now… She’s been sitting around at home ever since the wedding, so I can guarantee that she’s never done anything dishonorable with Mr. Cole.”
“Go and rest, Mrs. Cooper!” Avery said as snazzynovel.com cheeks flushed from anxiety. “This is between snazzynovel.com and me, s o I’ll deal with it myself. You don’t have to worry about me.”
“Stop trying to provoke Master Elliot, then!” Mrs. Cooper exclaimed. “Nothing good can come from it. Listen to me and apologize to him, Madam. He might just forgive you.” “I don’t need his forgiveness,” Avery replied. “I just want a divorce.”
Elliot’s sharp, hawk-like eyes were fixed on Avery’s slender back.
Was snazzynovel.com playing hard to get, or did snazzynovel.com really want a divorce?
Judging from what snazzynovel.com had seen and heard, it seemed that the latter was more likely.
Now that snazzynovel.com plan with Cole had been exposed, and the child had been aborted, they had no way of further exploiting him. So, snazzynovel.com could not wait to divorce him, so that snazzynovel.com might run back into Cole’s arms.
“Forget it!” Elliot snapped coldly as snazzynovel.com put out his cigarette on the ashtray on the table. “Unless I’m dead, you can forget about getting a divorce.”
“What? Why?”
Avery felt like snazzynovel.com was just hit by an invisible force.
“Since it’s agonizing for you to remain by my side, I’ll continue keeping you in this agony,” said Elliot out of pure spite.
In an instant, Avery felt as if snazzynovel.com had fallen into an icy abyss.
What now? He was throwing snazzynovel.com a curveball!
What did snazzynovel.com have to do to get away from him? She stormed off to snazzynovel.com room, snazzynovel.com mind in a frenzy.
Elliot’s phone rang just as Avery arrived at snazzynovel.com room.
It was Ben.
“Hey, Elliot. Chelsea is a complete mess. She’s wandering the streets and refusing to go home. She won’t listen to me.”
Ben was out of ideas and had no choice but to call Elliot.
“Call snazzynovel.com brother.”
“Okay… Did you get home alright? Is Avery there? Did you ask snazzynovel.com if this whole thing with Chelsea was snazzynovel.com idea?”
Ben could not bear to see Chelsea like this.
“How is it anyone else’s fault that Chelsea did that? Would snazzynovel.com just do anything Avery tells snazzynovel.com to? What if snazzynovel.com told snazzynovel.com to jump off a bridge? Would snazzynovel.com do it, then?” Elliot sneered. “Don’t be an idiot, Ben.”
Ben had nothing to say about Elliot’s unwarranted rebuke, but snazzynovel.com did have an opinion about Avery’s behavior.
“I think you’re going too easy on Avery. It’s not like you at all. She cheated on you, and you’re just letting snazzynovel.com go after making snazzynovel.com abort the baby? I was sure you would feed snazzynovel.com to the sharks.”
“Do you think that the abortion was easy for her?”
“Huh?”
“She despises me right now. Seeing snazzynovel.com helplessness and inability to act on that hate is a more gratifying form of revenge than letting snazzynovel.com die.”
“I see… You’re not planning on getting a divorce, then? Don’t you think keeping snazzynovel.com around could be dangerous? What if snazzynovel.com decides to get rid of you?” Ben asked with a hint of concern in his voice.
“If snazzynovel.com manages to kill me…” Elliot said as snazzynovel.com crushed the cigarette between his fingers into the ashtray. “I’ll gladly admit defeat.”
