"If you ever gamble again, I'll cut off both of your arms myself!" Henry snapped through gritted teeth."Why are you snapping at him? He just woke up! How could it be possible for him to lose all of that money by himself? I'm sure it was that brat, Cassandra Tate!" Olivia cried, then walked out of the room and called Cassandra over.Cassandra walked into the room, took one look at Cole on the hospital bed, and hung her head in guilt."Mom… Why are you blaming Cassandra? Someone deliberately set me up last night, or I wouldn't have lost that much money!"Cole's voice was weak, but he was more lucid now."It was Uncle Elliot… Nobody else could have done this! He found out that I used to date Avery Tate and hates me to death now!""I know it was your uncle! He doesn't care about you or your father!" Olivia cried hysterically. "There's something wrong with him. He's not normal. We shouldn't provoke him!"Henry shoved his wife aside and yelled, "What are you saying in front of an out

The admiration on Chelsea's face instantly vanished into thin air."I can't be one hundred percent sure about this, but I'm at least eighty to ninety percent sure of it," Charlie continued. "I never told you because I was on decent terms with him before. Besides, I figured that his merits could make me overlook this matter."Chelsea felt a chill run through her entire body. It felt like an eternity before her trembling hand managed to bring her glass of wine to her lips."He might be impressive, but he has a huge disadvantage. You shouldn't worship someone like him. If you were to marry him, I'd be worried for your safety," Charlie said indifferently as he cut into his steak."I'm sure he had a reason for doing it… I don't believe that he's a bad guy…" Chelsea mumbled after a moment's silence. "I would know if he was a lost cause. I spent all these years by his side, so I know him like the back of my hand."Charlie chuckled at his sister's gullibility."There was a serial killer

The first thing he had to do was make it past the first obstacle. Only then would the journey get smoother."In that case, don't ask her about it and just get her something," Ben suggested. "You should get her some jewelry. All women love jewelry.""She doesn't. I've never seen her wear any," Elliot said."How about beauty products? All women use that stuff, right?" Chad proposed."She doesn't use any. When I went into her room, I didn't find anything but a cleanser."He could not just give her a measly face cleanser as a gift, could he?Ben did not expect Avery to be so different from all the other women he had met.What was even more unexpected was the fact that the great president of Sterling Group, Elliot Foster, actually snuck into a girl's room to observe things like this!"Buy her that cleanser, then!" Ben said."It was covered in dust. It didn't look like she uses it much," Elliot responded.Ben and Chad were at a loss for words."Clothes, shoes, bags! She obviously

Avery froze in her tracks.When she realized that her phone had just been snatched away, she began to run in the direction that the thief had sped off.However, she stopped running when she remembered that she was pregnant and made her way back toward the house.Mrs. Cooper was on the phone with Elliot about an hour later."Master Elliot, Madam Avery's phone was stolen when she was out on a walk earlier. I took her to the station to file a report, but we were told that it was nearly impossible to get the phone back. Madam Avery's eyes were so red when we got home. She said that there was a lot of important information on her phone. She's crying by herself in her room right now." She could not allow things to remain as they are, and she thought that if Elliot knew about the matter, he might be able to use his connections to retrieve Elliot's phone. In truth, she had never confirmed if Avery was actually crying in her room, but she said it on purpose in hopes that Elliot might fe

"That's her," answered Elliot."Got it! I'll remember her name!" responded the captain.Back at the Foster mansion, Avery was sitting at her desk and using her laptop to sign into her social media accounts so she could post a status update about her stolen phone.She continued to sit at the desk in a daze after that.Maybe it was a good thing if the thief wiped out everything in her phone and sold it off.What she dreaded was a stranger invading her privacy and going through her phone.She placed her hand on her spinning head and sighed heavily.If she knew this was going to happen, she would never have left the neighborhood.She could have just taken her walk in the neighborhood itself!Avery got up from her desk and went into the bathroom.After her shower, she climbed into bed and lay down.She had to get a new phone and number the next day.She tossed and turned in bed, unable to fall asleep.The sound of frantic footsteps came from the hallway outside, followed by a k

Holding back tears, Avery turned in anger and stormed out of the station.She did not sign the release papers, nor did she take her phone back from Elliot.Elliot signed the papers and left the station.On the car ride home, he passed her phone to her and said in a low voice, "I didn't go through it."Avery took her phone and her breathing was heavy as she said, "But you already know what's inside.""Are they important? Those photos…"Avery gritted her teeth and warned herself not to lose her temper with Elliot.He was the one who had helped get her phone back after all.Her hand clenched around her phone as she asked, "If I told you that the baby you had forced me to abort wasn't Cole's but yours… Would you feel guilty at all?" Elliot turned his head and glanced at her.Avery's expression was serious, and it did not seem like she was kidding.He gulped and responded in a hoarse voice, "From the IVF treatments?""Yes," Avery answered. She met his gaze and said, "You killed

At breakfast the next morning, Avery and Elliot sat at the dining table in silence.She was having eggs and toast, while he was eating cereal."Thanks for getting my phone back last night," Avery said, shattering the silence between them."I'm sorry about my mother," Elliot said, finally expressing the apology that had been bothering him.Avery's cheeks flushed as she said, "You weren't the one who hit me. Why are you apologizing?""She shouldn't have slapped your face," Elliot said in a stiff voice. "If anyone touched my face, I would—"Before he could finish his sentence, Avery lifted her hand and gently caressed his cheek.His skin was surprisingly smooth and felt good against her fingers.Elliot's eyes were smoldering as his Adam's apple rolled in his throat, while his hand around his glass of milk trembled slightly."Okay, we're even," Avery said as she withdrew her hand and lowered her head to have a sip of her tea.Her heart was thumping wildly in her chest, and the sk

If Ben had mentioned this when he arrived at the house, Avery never would have gotten into his car."Mr. Schaffer, I know that all of you want to get on Elliot's good side—" Avery began to say."What do you mean? Haven't you ever gotten presents for your friends?" Ben interjected with a smile. "He always gets us something for our birthdays.""So, you don't get him gifts just because he told you not to? That just shows that you don't see him as a friend at all, but as a boss," Avery said. "I don't think you should drag me into this. If I accept your gifts on his behalf, it would be the same as me accepting gifts from him. If that's the case, I won't be able to take pleasure in reprimanding him when he makes me angry in the future."Ben was bewildered.Took pleasure in reprimanding him?How exactly did Avery treat Elliot every day?Ben began to suspect that his boss had a masochistic side to him."You should think of something else! I'm leaving," Avery said, then turned and began
