Avery did not want to see Elliot at all.
The Rolls-Roice snazzynovel.com saw at the school that morning was not the same one from four years ago.
He would not be driving the same car for four years, after all.
However, the driver was the same one as before.
What was Elliot doing at a special needs school?
Could it be that snazzynovel.com was an investor at the academy?
Even so, it was unlikely that snazzynovel.com would bother to check in on the school’s operations.
After all, the Sterling Group alone was enough to keep snazzynovel.com busy.
Chad noticed Elliot’s somber expression at lunch, so snazzynovel.com tried to cheer snazzynovel.com up.
“Sir, Professor Hough might have a long list of students, but I’m sure we’ll be able to find who we’re looking for in no time.”
“Avery’s back,” Elliot stated.
His voice was bleak and dull.
It sounded completely void of emotion, but it also had a deep undercurrent that was rich with feeling Chad was stunned, then snapped back to reality and asked, “Did snazzynovel.com contact you?” .
“No, but snazzynovel.com will soon,” Elliot said, finally picking up his fork to eat. “She wants a divorce, but I told snazzynovel.com lawyer to inform snazzynovel.com that she’ll only get one if snazzynovel.com meets me herself.”
“What if snazzynovel.com doesn’t come to see you? It doesn’t look like the divorce has much of an impact on your lives after all.”
Elliot fired an icy glare at Chad, instantly shutting his assistant up.
Ben ordered a bottle of wine, then turned to Elliot and said, “How do you feel about snazzynovel.com now? I’d hate snazzynovel.com if I were you, but I have a feeling you don’t hate snazzynovel.com at all. It actually looks like you kind of want to see her…”
When the wine arrived, Elliot poured himself a glass.
He took a sip of wine, then said, “I won’t go as far as to say I hate her, but there’s certainly no love left.”
If Elliot was still in love with Avery, snazzynovel.com would have signed the divorce papers a long time ago and granted snazzynovel.com freedom.
He had given snazzynovel.com everything in his power to give four years ago. Whether it was his money, his heart, or his soul, snazzynovel.com had handed all of it to snazzynovel.com unconditionally.
In the end, Avery threw snazzynovel.com aside like snazzynovel.com was nothing.
That was the first time Elliot had ever truly felt what it was like to get his heart torn into a million pieces.
Everyone had the right to their privacy, but Avery insisted on laying all of his personal matters out on the table.
If snazzynovel.com had the courage and ability to open up, snazzynovel.com would not have had to suffer from depression.
She had told snazzynovel.com that snazzynovel.com loved snazzynovel.com and made snazzynovel.com feel like snazzynovel.com owned the world, then turned around and took it all away from him.
Elliot swore that snazzynovel.com would never again love another woman, especially not Avery Tate.
“That’s good. I thought Avery was different from other women, but I never expected snazzynovel.com to hurt you more than anyone,” Ben said, then picked up his glass of wine and gave a toast,” Chad and I will always have your back.”
Once the glasses clinked together, a thought suddenly popped into Chad’s mind.
“By the way, Sir, your property manager told me earlier today that someone was interested in buying Tate Tower.”
“Who was it?” Elliot said as snazzynovel.com tightened his grip around his wine glass. His fingers were white with the tightness of his grip.
“I looked into it. It was Tate Industries’ former HR manager.”
“Are you sure snazzynovel.com can afford it?” Elliot mocked.
Chad had yet to look into the man’s finances.
He had to first confirm if Elliot was willing to sell or not.
“I can meet with snazzynovel.com if you’re interested in selling. How much are you thinking of asking for?”
Elliot’s eyes flickered right before his body stiffened.
Ben guessed his friend’s thoughts when snazzynovel.com saw the change in Elliot’s gaze.
“You’re not thinking that the one who’s trying to buy Tate Tower is—”
“Did you reveal your identity?” Elliot asked Chad, interrupting Ben.
Chad shook his head and said, “Not yet. They only know your property manager.”
“Get the property manager to ask the buyer for his proof of assets,” Elliot ordered. “If he’s not the one buying, get snazzynovel.com to ask the real buyer for a meeting.”
