Chapter 622
If Zoe had not mentioned Cole, Avery would have almost forgotten about his existence!After the split-up six years ago, Avery had completely avoided him. Falling in love with Elliot blinded her to all other men. There was not the slightest possibility of her stealing Cole away as Zoe had claimed she had.It was comical and absurd!The bodyguard nearby saw Zoe attacking Avery. He quickly ran over and kicked Zoe in the waist!In pain, Zoe released Avery. She fell to the ground, landing on her side. "I'm pregnant! How dare you kick me! If my child dies, I'll kill you so that you can keep it company!" Zoe lay on the ground crying.The surrounding guards and secretary immediately ran over. Avery's secretary looked at Avery's messy hair. She immediately helped Avery. "Miss Tate, are you alright? Let me get you in. I'll help you straighten up your hair."Avery stared at Zoe who was still on the ground."Miss Tate, how should I deal with this crazy woman?" the guard asked.Avery said

"Zoe, you said that I snatched Cole away from you. Did you see me with him?" said Avery as she stood by the car. "Call Cole now! Let's ask him!""No! If he knew I came looking for you, he'll break up with me!" Zoe said painfully. "I saw the photo of you two at the nightclub! He admitted to it! You are the only one who is still denying it!""Night club? I have never been to a place like that! Either he is lying, or he mistook me for someone else!" said Avery, taking great care to stress each word. "There's a woman who looks like me called Nora. You better check properly and see whether that woman in the photo is called Nora!""But Cole said that it's you!" Zoe did not believe Avery's words, after all, they shared a grudge."Then, you can just continue hating me!" said Avery calmly. "Don't come looking for me again when you and Cole get into another stupid fight. If not, I'll get the guards to kick you out next time."Zoe clutched her waist which still hurt a little. She sobbed hoar

Avery was still happily chatting with Tammy. She did not notice him approaching her."Are you nervous? You'll be giving birth soon." Tammy stirred the glass of juice in her hand with the straw."I'm not nervous, but I really want to get it over and done with. My stomach is huge, and it's tiring to carry it around," said Avery as she took a bite of her dessert. She asked, "What about you?""I told my in-laws that I'll give them one next year. I'm going to drag it till next year. I haven't had enough fun yet!""Having kids won't stop you from having fun.""I'm sure kids will affect it somehow. I like kids. Once I have one of my own, I won't be able to be stern enough to discipline them.""You can take your kids around and play with them! Having kids will make things more interesting. You don't have to worry too much.""Hmm! You give me courage. Whether it's caring for your kids or working, you're not afraid of anything," said Tammy enviously. "If I was a man, I would fall in love
Chapter 625
Avery forcefully stuffed the bag in Elliot's hands. "Elliot, the child just moved in my tummy. He can now hear every word you say." Elliot looked at her in shock. He felt as though someone had just shocked him. "Can I touch your stomach?" he asked hoarsely."The baby isn't moving now. He is still quite small, and he doesn't move around quite a lot." This was her second pregnancy, and it was different when compared to her first one. During her first pregnancy, she had been very afraid of telling him about her pregnancy. So, she had to hold everything in and suffer through it on her own. Fear had overpowered the joys of motherhood. However, this time, she was able to fully enjoy her pregnancy. Elliot placed his large hands on her stomach, and the warmth from his hands warmed her. She suddenly tensed. Perhaps the child in her sensed her nervousness, so he kicked her tummy!"He moved again!" Avery could not help but exclaim."I felt it!" Elliot was affected by it too. Instan

That vicious woman! How dare she gouged Zoe's eyeballs!Zoe was suddenly plunged into darkness! She was blind! She could no longer go out and work. Her life was completely ruined!Filled with disappointment and bitterness, all she wanted to do was die. She could not see anything, and now, even death was a luxury!Elliot had heard about what had happened that night.Henry had called him and roughly explained the situation to him. He had to tell Elliot about it because the matter concerned Avery. "Zoe is very unstable. When she's asleep, she's fine but once she wakes up, she starts screaming. She keeps saying that Avery gouged her eyeballs…"Elliot said firmly, "I pity her, but Avery would not do such a thing.""Yes, I didn't think Avery would do that, but I'm worried for Zoe. She is still pregnant with Cole's child. Although the child is not affected right now, if her mental state continues to deteriorate, I'm afraid that it would affect the child." Henry kept sighing."I'll co

Zoe shook her head. "I didn't see her, because when I came to my senses, my eyes had already been gouged out! It's so painful I want to die! I heard Avery say that this is what I deserve. I heard it clearly! Elliot, I won't lie to you! I have nothing now! I can't lie to you!""Her voice?" Elliot was stunned. "Are you sure you didn't mishear?""Impossible! I didn't make a mistake. I didn't make a mistake because I hate her so much!" said Zoe as she gripped Elliot's hand. She gripped his hand as if he were her lifeline. "Elliot I wouldn't lie to you! Even if I did you would probably immediately find out about it! I beg you! I beg you… please, take pity on me." Elliot looked at Zoe's quivering lips and pale face. His heart was extremely heavy.His instincts told him that Zoe was not lying, yet another voice in his mind kept reminding him that Avery would not do such a thing!"Zoe, I'll look into it, " Elliot promised. "But before we get to the bottom of it, rest more and get well so

Avery involuntarily took two steps backward.Her eyes were unfocused. She could not believe that such a thing had happened! What shocked her, even more, was that Zoe had blamed it on her! "He thinks I did it just because I fought with Zoe? How absurd!" she thought. "Avery!" Elliot looked at her as she retreated into the house. His heart constricted tightly. "Answer my question!""Elliot, I hate you! I hate you!" shrieked Avery. "Every time just when I start to feel that you are a good person, you turn around and show me how despicable you are!" Elliot saw Avery yelling at him. He stood there shocked. Raindrops pelted his back, and the cold pierced him. However, his gaze was hot and passionate. The mixture of ice and fire caused him to lose it. He strode toward her."You didn't do it, right?" Elliot walked toward her and grabbed her thin shoulders tightly. His voice was hoarse, "You are not this type of person. Avery, I know that you're not this type of person! I'm asking you

Elliot watched her as she walked to him. Before he could even think, he was standing in front of her. He picked her up in his arms and walked toward the house.Although Avery had barely been in the rain, her face was wet from the rain or more accurately, her tears. "Avery, I did not suspect you. You said that you didn't do it, and I believe you." Elliot placed Avery down on the sofa. He bent down and said patiently, "Zoe is so sure that you harmed her. If she reported it to the police, the police will surely come looking for you. I don't want you to be questioned like a criminal. If we can find an alibi for you, the police won't pester you."Avery looked at Elliot's wet and wretched face. She could not get angry."I went to Wesley's today," said Avery tonelessly. "I was at his house the entire day.""You were in his house the entire day?" The tenderness in Elliot's eyes instantly vanished. He sounded nervous."Yes. Are you going to ask what I was doing in his house?" Avery's c
