"Are you?" He grabbed her slim wrist and pulled her toward the bed. "You have to be in a good mood to ask your friends over for a barbeque. Are you tired because I am here?"His fingers began working on the buttons of her jacket. She grabbed his hand and said, "Elliot! Don't do this in my house!""Why not?" He did not give her a chance to answer and said sternly, "Why can't we do it in your house? Is it because you had other men in your bed before?"Avery shoved his chest. "Because you are dirty!"He froze at her words. She thought that he was dirty because he had slept with Zoe. She raced to the door, unlocked it, and told him to get out. He stared at the open door, walked toward it, and shut it."And you are not? You were pregnant with another man's baby." He locked the door and grabbed her by the waist, before lifting her up. She had a C-section, and there was a scar across her abdomen. The last time they had been intimate he had frozen at the sight of the scar. He had

"Mom!""Mom!"The shouts of the two children echoed inside the mansion. Inside the master bedroom, Avery heard her children shouting and tensed. She tried to escape from Elliot— who was on top of her. She could not break free. "Elliot Foster! Let me go!" Tears began to well up in her eyes as she grew anxious.He grabbed onto her wrists tightly. He had no intention of releasing her."I'm not done!" His voice was low and tinted with annoyance. "Do you really believe that they need something from you?""It doesn't matter when or why they are looking for me, all that matters is they need me!" She struggled to fight him off. Her eyes grew red with tears as she struggled against him.He simply tightened his grip. There was no way she could escape if he was determined to keep her there. Tears rolled down her cheeks, and her eyes slowly filled with resentment. Outside the door, Layla was about to burst into tears, and Tammy immediately lifted her up. "Don't cry, Layla! I just h

When she went to turn off the lights, he could see the tears rolling down her face. Though he was physically satisfied, he felt discontent. He felt worse when she remained quiet. The room was dark with only the faint light coming in from the street lights down below. He started at her back and furrowed his brows. Instinctively, he wanted to be closer to her, so he stretched out his arm and tried to pull her to him.She shoved him away with all the power she could muster. The moment she felt the warmth of his body, she shouted, "Let me go!""No!" He tightened his arms around her and indulged himself in her scent. He rested his chin on her shoulder. "I'm not leaving tonight."Avery felt as though she had been tied up, and she could not move an inch. Elliot had not been gentle, but he was not as rough as the last time. "When has he ever asked for my opinion before showing up or leaving? What I think doesn't matter to him, so he doesn't even need to say anything! He would just d

Elliot sneered and thought to himself, "Hayden Tate wants to be my dad? How hilarious. But, that kid has guts."Elliot guessed that him staying over had frustrated Hayden greatly. He must not have been able to get any sleep, and that was why he had attacked Elliot's company. Hayden had the right to be angry, but when Elliot pictured how Hayden had lost sleep over anger, he could not help but smirk. "Mr. Foster, should we call the police?" Chad asked. Elliot continued his way downstairs as he drawled, "What's going on in the network security department?""They trying to get the system up and running as soon as they can." "How long until it's fixed?""They should be able to fix it by noon today," Chad said. Elliot reached the first floor and said, "We are not calling the police.""Noted. Mr. Foster, do you suspect that this is Hayden's doing?""No."Chad could barely hold back his laughter. "Well, he sure is a genius child! The IT department has strengthened the firewall

Once she was inside, Rosalie picked up the phone and said, "Hello, do you know Elliot Foster? I'm his mother.""Hello, Madame Rosalie. May I know why you've contacted me?" The person on the other end of the line said. "You have a student named Hayden Tate at your kindergarten, right?""Yes.""The thing is, I need a few strands of his hair, and I was wondering if you can get me some. I will pay you, so just name your price," said Rosalie.Confused, the other person asked, "Why do you want his hair? It's not that I don't want to help, but you probably don't know much about that child. You see, he does not allow anyone to touch him. The only person who can touch him is his sister."Rosalie had not predicted that something this simple would turn out to be so difficult. "Think of something! If you can't get your hands on his hair, blood will also do!" she said. "I'll be honest with you, that boy's mother was married to my son for a while… and I suspect that boy is my son’s son. So,

Chad opened the door to Elliot's office in Sterling Group once the company network was restored. "Mr. Foster, the Network Security Department asked me to take this to you," he said while setting down a stack of documents before Elliot. Elliot glanced at the document and asked, "What are these?""… I think these are the codes of the malware written by Hayden Tate." Chad simply glanced through it. He did not dare continue reading. Elliot opened the file and saw a sentence hidden within the code that said, [Elliot Foster is an idiot.]His expression darkened. When he flipped to the second page, he saw another sentence. [Elliot Foster falls into the river while driving!]On the third page was [Elliot Foster runs out of toilet paper in the bathroom], while on the fourth page, there was another sentence [Elliot Foster chokes on bread.]…Elliot picked up the documents and tossed them into a paper shredder. Despite the dark expression on his face, he did not respond in any way. H

Elliot might as well just be blunt and say that he only wanted Avery to bear his children and that he did not care if his children with any other woman died, because he did not want them to begin with. "So you want Avery to bear your child, then?" Ben teased. "Yeah."Ben gasped and almost dropped his cup. "You really want her to bear your child?!""Zoe asked that I avenge our child's death.""So you are trying to get Avery pregnant with your child as revenge?" Ben was amused. "Zoe is probably going to cry so much that she passes out if she learns that this is your way of taking revenge.""How I take my revenge is up to me.""Is Avery willing to do it?" Ben instinctively knew that there was more to the story.Avery already had two children, and even if Hayden was adopted, Ben could tell that she saw Hayden as her own from the way she treated him. It was only natural that she was unwilling to give birth to any more children."She isn't." Elliot scowled. "She hates me now.""O

When he saw how cheerful she was in the photo, his heart ached at the realization that it had been so long since she had last smiled at him. It was almost five years ago. In the wedding dress shop, Avery had taken the wedding dress off and picked out a light purple dress to wear to Tammy's wedding. "I will be thirty in a few years, and I won't get to wear dresses like this by then," she said. "I should buy a few more like this one while I can still pretend to be young.""Avery, with your face, people would believe you even if you say you are twenty. It's not like you will grow old overnight when you are thirty, so relax and be young all you want!""That sweet tongue of yours! No wonder you have Jun wrapped around your fingers," Avery said with a smile. "He is the one who benefited from me choosing him, okay?" After trying on the dresses she had ordered, Tammy said with satisfaction, "All that's left right now is to wait for the wedding! Oh, isn't the kids' birthday soon? How do
