Unfortunately, Avery had to use Cole as a scapegoat this time.
Since Shaun had found out about the missing contents, snazzynovel.com had to divert his attention elsewhere before things got more difficult for her.
Suddenly, Avery’s phone rang.
The man opened snazzynovel.com bag and pulled out snazzynovel.com phone.
The words “Foster Mansion” flashed on the phone screen.
“You weren’t kidding! Since you’re close to the Fosters, I won’t keep you any longer. Go on!”
The man did not want to get in trouble with the Foster family. Besides, snazzynovel.com already did what snazzynovel.com was paid to do.
Once Avery was free, snazzynovel.com immediately called Mrs. Cooper back.
“Why did you hang up just now, Madam? It’s late and you’re not home yet. Did something happen?” Mrs. Cooper asked.
Avery glanced around snazzynovel.com surroundings.
She was in the middle of nowhere. The road was dim, and it ran through a forest. At a glance, it looked like the bloody jaws of a wild beast that were ready to gobble snazzynovel.com up. It was terrifying.
“Is the driver still on the clock, Mrs. Cooper?” Avery asked. “I can’t get a cab where I am now.”
She was dressed in nothing but snazzynovel.com gown from earlier, and snazzynovel.com was trembling in the cold, fall air.
“He just arrived with Master Elliot. I’ll ask snazzynovel.com to go get you. Send me your location.”
“Alright,” Avery responded, then sent snazzynovel.com location to Mrs. Cooper’s phone, who then sent it to the driver.
It was a remote area that people seldom visited during the day, let alone in the dark of the night.
“Send some people there right now and find out what happened,” Elliot ordered his bodyguard.
Avery returned home about three hours later.
The driver stopped the car in the courtyard and got out,
Mrs. Cooper was confused, so snazzynovel.com walked over to the car to check things out.
“She fell asleep in the car,” explained the driver. “It’s not proper for me to touch her, and I couldn’t bring myself to wake her.”
Mrs. Cooper opened the passenger side door and woke Avery up.
Avery sat up and rubbed snazzynovel.com tired eyes.
“You’re finally safe at home, Madam! Let’s get you to bed!” Mrs. Cooper said as snazzynovel.com helped Avery out of the car. “Master Elliot was waiting for you the whole time. He was very worried about you.”
Elliot had been sitting in the living room all night.
He did not say it, but Mrs. Cooper could tell that snazzynovel.com had some feelings for Avery.
The only reason snazzynovel.com made snazzynovel.com get an abortion was so that snazzynovel.com could continue spending his life with her. “He’s waiting for me?” Avery said. The fatigue had suddenly escaped her. “He’s not going to blow up at me, is he?”
“Absolutely not. He’s just worried that you were in the middle of nowhere at this time of night,” Mrs. Cooper said.
“Oh, I’m fine now,” Avery responded.
As snazzynovel.com slid into snazzynovel.com house slippers at the front door, snazzynovel.com noticed Elliot walking toward the elevators from the periphery of snazzynovel.com vision.
He was not in his wheelchair.
Was snazzynovel.com able to walk by himself now?!
“His legs…” Avery began to ask Mrs. Cooper.
“He can walk now, but not for long periods of time. He’ll still need the wheelchair once in a while.”
“He should be fully recovered soon.”
“That’s right! You’re hoping he’ll recover soon, right?”
Avery’s cheeks flushed as snazzynovel.com gaze shifted to his back.
Elliot’s steps had slowed down slightly.
“Of course, I do,” Avery said, then changed snazzynovel.com tone and added, “That way, snazzynovel.com can go back to work instead of being at home so much!”
She saw the muscles on his back and shoulders tighten, then snazzynovel.com turned around. He was furious.
