Avery thought about it from another perspective. If Elliot had slapped her, she would resent him for life. She would have gone to the hospital and gotten an abortion out of spite. When she thought about it that way, she secretly thought that Elliot might never look for her ever again. A week had passed, and Tammy and Avery were in one of the most elite restaurants in the city. The bruise on Tammy's face was almost gone, and Tammy had asked Avery out for a meal. Tammy fully intended to buy Avery a meal.Initially, Tammy had invited the children, but Wesley had taken them and Shea out."Avery, Elliot did not go looking for you for the past few days, right?" said Tammy, worry tinting her voice."Hmm." Avery ordered a few dishes and passed the menu to Tammy."I heard that he has been at home for the past few days. He never left the house." When Tammy said that she could not help but laugh. "I don't really hate him anymore. For real. It really tickles me that now he is feeling wor

"Hah! As I thought!" Tammy sneered. "Chelsea brought that lady over to present her to Elliot."Avery looked away. Although she found the entire situation to be absurd, she did not have any control over the actions of others."How unlucky! We were having such a good time, and now, they are here," said Tammy. She took a sip of water and looked at Avery. "Avery, why don't we go somewhere else?" Avery shook her head. "We came here first.""Won't he upset you?""Even if he upsets me, we can't leave," said Avery calmly. "We have already placed our orders. We can't let the food go to waste." "Why don't we take it away. We can eat at home!" Avery said, "Tammy, I don't remember you being such a coward? If that lady has truly altered her face to look more like me, it is she who should be nervous about running into me. I don't have to avoid her." "Of course, I'm not a coward! Even if Elliot approaches me right now, I won't be afraid!" Tammy might say that she was not afraid, but she s

After Avery finished her meal, she placed down her utensils.Tammy followed suit. "Let's go! Do you want to do some shopping? If you want to shop, I'll accompany you."Avery shook her head. "I had too much food. I'm a little sleepy." "I'll send you back," Tammy grabbed her bag and walked over to Avery, helping her up.Avery suppressed her laughter, "You don’t have to be so cautious. I can walk on my own.""I just want to hold onto you!" Tammy touched Avery's tummy. "It sure does look quite big. You're wearing baggy clothes, so it doesn't look like it, but when I touch it, it's obvious. It's like a huge watermelon.""It's clearly a small watermelon," replied Avery."Have you ever seen such a huge small watermelon? Sigh. We should be able to see the child's face already, right?" Tammy asked."Hmm. I saw the baby on the ultrasound scan when I was in Bridgedale." "Who does the baby look like?"Avery was silent for a few seconds before saying, "It looks like itself.""Is the ba

Tammy took the report downstairs. Elliot heard footsteps and looked up at the staircase. Their eyes met. The awkwardness filled the entire living room "Mr. Foster, what brings you here?" Although Tammy was a little afraid of him, she was in Avery's house. She had strong backup.Elliot ignored Tammy's sarcastic tone. His gaze fell on the report in her hands. "Is Avery still asleep?""Oh, are you here to take Avery to the hospital?" said Tammy, and she flung the report at him. "She has already gotten the report." "Give it to me." Elliot took two steps forward and stretched his hand out.Tammy hid the report behind her back and took a jab at him, "Has your face healed? And here I thought you wouldn't come looking for Avery. I never thought that your child would be more important than your so-called ego!"Elliot's expressions darkened immediately when he heard Tammy mocking him."You really care about that child. Do you have a throne that he needs to inherit?" Tammy would not le

Avery had been trying to get back to sleep, but the commotion between Elliot and Tammy over the results affected her, and she no longer felt the urge to sleep."Let's do it now then!" Avery headed upstairs to grab her bag.A moment later, she returned with her bag in hand.Elliot's gaze fell on her tummy. "Avery, do you not have a lift at home?""No." She knew what Elliot was thinking. He was worried that the pregnancy might be affected if she exhausted herself climbing up and down the stairs. She, however, did not feel exhausted at all. Even if her tummy got bigger during the later stages of her pregnancy, she could still carry herself up and down the stairs. "Either you move downstairs, or you install a lift. Your choice," said Elliot in a tone that brooked no argument."How am I going to install a lift? Are you asking me to tear down my house?" Avery glared at him. "If I can't climb the stairs anymore, naturally, I'll move downstairs."Avery strode out of the house with El

"Congratulations! It's a boy." The head of the department pointed at the child's body on the screen.Elliot swallowed and said hoarsely, "Let me have a look at his face."The head of the department immediately moved the scanner up. It was a pity the child had already turned around. At that moment, they could only see the side of his face."I have saved the photo of his front face." The department head tapped the screen and showed Elliot the child's photo. "Mr. Foster, your son looks just like you! It's already so obvious."Elliot looked at the child's photo. His heart softened. This was his first time perceiving the child as a human being. He suddenly understood why Avery had been so angry with him. She had seen the child as a human being faster than he had. "I'll print the photo out for you later," said the head of the department. "Let me have a look at how this child is developing."Elliot nodded.A moment later, the head of the department said, "The child is on the smaller s

Chelsea picked the ultrasound scan up. She saw the child that looked like Elliot and her heart filled with disgust."The baby looks like you! It's a boy, right?" Chelsea asked with a smile.Elliot responded in the affirmative and stored the ultrasound scan. "Why are you here?""It's my cousin's first day at the office, and I thought I'd let you know." Chelsea smiled gently. "Elliot, congratulations! You're going to be a father! The baby looks so much like you. I'm sure he'll be as amazing as you are."Elliot slowly relaxed, and he looked less severe. That child was his only hope now.Chelsea walked out of his office. She maintained the smile on his face as she walked back to her office. The moment she entered her office, her expression immediately changed! She was furious! 'The child is fine! How could God be so cruel!' she thought.Nora entered her office and saw the documents scattered on the floor. She immediately asked, "Chelsea, what happened?""Hehe, what happened? I'm

Avery was shocked! She could not believe it! 'How could Elliot do that! Why did he boycott Eric? Why?!' she thought.Eric's manager recounted the incident painfully, "Elliot's assistant contacted me yesterday She told me that Elliot wanted to meet Eric, so I brought him to the Sterling Group. As for what they spoke about, I don't know, but when Eric left his office, he looked glum. They must have fought. I never thought that Eric would be boycotted…"Avery said, "How is Eric right now?"His manager replied, "He is still alright. After all, even if he quits the entertainment industry, he can still take over the family business. But, I don't want him to quit! He was born a celebrity! Miss Tate, you have to help Eric!"Avery said, "Don't worry, I'll go look for Elliot right now."His manager sighed in relief. "Thank you!"After the call, Avery went through her contacts and found Elliot's number. Elliot and Eric did not have any personal contact with each other. If they had met, it m

Avery's secretary faced the camera and smiled. She said with an insuppressible excitement, "Good evening, everyone! Welcome to Tate Industries' live stream! I'll cut to the chase! Please give a hand and welcome our President, Miss Avery Tate!"A deafening round of applause rang out.Avery was in a V-neck evening gown. The gown exposed her perfect figure. The dress exposed her baby bump, hiding nothing!The other person that appeared on stage together with her was Eric! He helped her with her train.There was an influx of viewers the moment he appeared on screen. The viewership continued to grow.Comments kept coming in too![Back when Tate Industries was in trouble, Eric appeared and helped them! This time, Eric is in trouble and Tate Industries lends him a helping hand! I'm so touched by this friendship!][I will always remember the brands that canceled their contracts with Eric! I will never buy their products again! I will remember Tate Industries! I will be the first one to

Chad and Elliot were in the black Rolls-Royce. Chad had accepted a phone call from Mike, and when he had ended the call, he turned and looked at Elliot."Mr. Foster, Mike just called me. He invited me to a hotel to have a meal." Chad hesitated, "Do you want to come?"Elliot's expression darkened. "They didn't invite me. Why should I go?"Chad said awkwardly, "I heard that Avery had called you this morning, but she could not get through to you. Why don't… you two meet and talk? Don't pay attention to her smiles while she was on the live stream. Mike said that she was absolutely livid. I'm guessing she dressed as she did to upset you." Elliot's gaze darkened. "How do you know she did not wear it for Eric?"Chad could feel Elliot's anger, and he dared not say more.Eric was at the hotel, and he was giving a demonstration on the latest drone that came out of Tate Industries. Later, by popular demand, he sang for them too. The live stream suddenly became an online concert! Avery
