Chapter 193
She thought about the reason why Hayden got angry. Could it be that she asked him to bring her out of school, and he was scolded for that? Other than this, she could not think of anything else. When Hayden heard her apologizing, he grew increasingly furious! Was she admitting to her inappropriate relationship with Elliot? She was the reason why his Mom and Dad had a divorce?! "Stop following me!" Hayden yelled at her, "I hate you!" Shea stopped and her eyes teared up. When Mrs. Cooper saw this, she instantly helped Shea to sit on the sofa, "Shea, don't cry. If he doesn't want to be your friend, stop following him." Since Hayden was so ill-tempered, Shea would hurt herself doing so. However, Shea did not want to lose a good friend like Hayden. She shook her head vigorously. Mrs. Cooper held on to her head and did not want her to keep shaking her head, "Stop shaking your head, you might hurt your head. Sit here, I will go and ask Hayden what it takes for him to befrie

”You must be Avery." Zoe went forward to greet her, "Nice to meet you, I'm Zoe." Avery glanced at her and said without enthusiasm, "Yeah, I'm leaving now." Avery and Hayden left. Zoe watched as she left and zoned out for a moment. Avery was younger and more beautiful than she imagined. Why did she look for Elliot today? She even brought a boy here…was that Elliot's son? So, she came here with the boy, trying to get back with Elliot? Thinking of this, Zoe felt disgusted. Would Elliot get back with Avery because of this? "Elliot, sorry to show up unannounced." Zoe pointed at the cake on the table, "My friend bought this cake for me but I can't finish it on my own so I brought this over." Elliot glanced at the cake, "Happy birthday, did you receive your gift?" Zoe halted, "Someone did send me a parcel in the afternoon. I didn't know it was you who sent it, so I haven't opened it." Elliot nodded, "I don't eat cake, and neither does Shea. You can eat with Mrs. Cooper

"Layla looks like you," Hayden said. "Hayden, he's indeed the father of the both of you. However, he doesn't like kids so it's best if the both of you don't go to him. If he finds out that you're both his kids, I don't know what he'd do," Avery said. Hayden replied, "We don't want a father like him!" "Hayden, I think you've changed and improved a lot since you've arrived at Aryadelle," Avery said. "Mom, I'm not ill, I just find those people childish and boring," Hayden said.Avery nodded, "I know. You like smart people like Uncle Mile. However, when you're older, you'll realize that the people who're not as smart are equally special. We must learn to focus on the merits of others, such as kindness and innocence." Hayden did not agree with that, but he did not refute her. Perhaps when he was older, he would understand what she meant. … Zoe arrived home at seven in the evening. She opened the gift she received in the afternoon. She was disappointed in Elliot because

Avery almost spat the green tea from her mouth. She took a tissue to dab on her lips. "Miss Sanford, I was the one asking for a divorce with Elliot. As for you taking Elliot from me, what I hate is that you're not married yet! Look at how alike you two are! He's handsome and you're beautiful, you're made for one another! When are you two getting married? I will send a grand gift!" Zoe had an awkward smile on her face, "Now I know this is what you're thinking. However, I'm sorry to disappoint you, as we don't plan to get married yet." "Why not? Do you not want to? Or does he not want to? If he doesn't want to, why don't I help you talk to him?" Avery took another sip of green tea. Zoe said, "You don't have to. We will let things happen at their course. Right, Miss Tate, you called me shameless earlier, I don't understand why. This is only our first meeting, so why did you insult me?" Avery sensed how fake this woman was. Zoe looked pitiable and wronged, one would easily symp

How could she frame her in such a clumsy way! Avery looked at her bad acting in shock! In her head, she already pictured the dramatic scene from romantic movies when the female lead bickered with the other woman. The staff rushed over and helped Zoe up to treat her burn. Avery sat on her chair as she had an hunch that she was going to be accused. Now that Zoe was hurt, she had the upper hand. She could say that this was an accident. She could also say that Avery burned her intentionally and her words were to be taken seriously. Avery asked for the bill. Soon after, the news of Avery burning Zoe got to the ears of Elliot. Out of all parts of Zoe's body, her hands meant the most to him. This was because Zoe had to perform surgery on Shea. And now, Avery had burned her hands… "There's no way Avery would do this!" Elliot said. The bodyguard showed the video footage to Elliot. The camera was facing Avery, it clearly showed how when Avery pushed Zoe's hands away, th

When Avery heard his questioning, she had a wave of emotions. "What did your girlfriend say to you?" she asked. Elliot halted. He had not visited Zoe. After listening to the recording, he got triggered and so he called her first. "Avery, I'm asking you! Don't change the topic!" His tone was more serious this time. When Avery heard him yell, she began fuming, "Isn't it obvious? I burned your girlfriend's hands with boiling water! Tell her to stay away from me, if not, I will burn her face!" Elliot was speechless. Avery said, "Why're you not speaking? Are you not trying to speak up for your girlfriend?" Elliot gulped and gritted his teeth. "If Miss Sanford's hands are damaged, who will operate on your Shea? Sigh, I'm suddenly so worried. Elliot Foster, will you take revenge on me?" Avery continued. "Avery Tate, even a fool knows you didn't mean that! Even so, I do get angry listening to what you say!" Elliot responded to her triggering words. "Then stop calling me!
Chapter 199
Cole asked, "Avery! Are you comparing me to a dog?!" Avery replied, "Yeah! I know Cassandra well enough to know that she won't have the guts to buy a killer! However, I'm not interested in the two of you, so whether you two die or live has nothing to do with me! If you keep bugging me, I won't hesitate to find someone to investigate this!" Cole's face changed, "Avery! I didn't come here for you, I happened to…pass by. I won't come back to look for you anymore next time!" Avery did not anticipate that random words from her would expose him. Cole did not like Elliot but dared not use his name to buy a killer and sacrificed Cassandra. The phone screen lit up as there was a message. Avery clicked open the message, it was from Tammy: [How's Elliot so low?! He called you for that woman! What's wrong with him! He should have known you better!] Cole saw that she was on her phone, so he stood up ready to leave. Somehow, he glanced over and saw the chat background on her phone.
Chapter 200
It was six in the evening. Avery was driving back to Starry River Villa. The villa door was open. There was a red BMW parked in the front yard. Avery recognized this car, it was Tammy's car. Why did Tammy come all of a sudden? "Avery!" When Tammy saw Avery come home, she ran out, "I saw your two children! If I didn't hear from other people about you adopting the children, were you going to hide it from me forever?" Once Avery heard Tammy's complaining voice, she almost dared not get out of her car. She realized that whenever Elliot found out anything about her, the rest of the world would know! Furthermore, whenever Tammy found out anything, Elliot would get the news, too! One could only blame Tammy's relationship with Jun Hertz. Though, she could not cut Tammy off just because she was seeing Jun. "How could you?!" Tammy walked toward Avery and pulled her out of her car, "Isn't it just adopting two children? Why did you hide it?" Avery was speechless… "Also,
