"Mr. Foster isn't lovestruck, he's just got a lot of love to give!" Chad said. "Not only is he generous with his money when it comes to Avery, he's also generous with his love! It isn't like there aren't more beautiful women around him, but he's never given any of them the time of day.""That's because women who are more beautiful than Avery aren't as capable as she is, and the ones who are more capable than her aren't as young and beautiful." Mike began to sing Avery praises. "If I was into women, I'd fall in love with Avery too."Chad gave him a kick. He had only praised him a little bit, and he already had his head up in the clouds."You can't take a joke! Avery and your boss are going to remarry. Once they're back in the country, I won't have a place in this home anymore." Mike had on a pitiful face, but he was in a good mood. "I guess I'll just have to move in with you then!""Are you sure they're going to remarry?" Chad had spent the past few days taking care of his mother at

"I'm looking at photos of me and your father. Would you like to see them?" Avery asked.Hayden immediately turned to look out the window and said, "I don't.""I won't look at them either then." Avery put her phone down, then turned to her son and said, "Thank you for today, Hayden. I suggested taking family portraits because we haven't taken one since your grandmother passed away. There's also another reason."Hayden withdrew his gaze from the window.He was willing to listen to his mother. No matter what Avery said, he could take her seriously."Last night, your father told me that he's been depending on medication to fall asleep ever since Shea passed away. He didn't bring his pills, so I went out to get some for him last night. He isn't perfect, but neither am I. I've thought about it seriously, and I want to spend the rest of my life with him."Avery was informing Hayden that she would be living with Elliot in the future.This was something that Hayden had already expected.

The person texting Avery probably did not expect Elliot to be right next to her and was shocked for a moment.Avery composed herself, then texted: [You said you're Chelsea Tierney's cousin. Why should I believe you?][I really am her cousin! My name is Ruby Sullivan. Call and ask Chelsea if you don't believe me. You have her number, right?][I don't. Send me her number.]Avery had Chelsea's number. She said she did not so she could check if the person texting her was a liar.The person sent Avery a series of numbers.Avery checked it with Chelsea's number and then confirmed that the person did know Chelsea.Her heart instantly turned cold.If this person really was Chelsea's cousin, then could what she said be true?The world began to spin around Avery as her temples suddenly began to throb in pain.Elliot spent every single day with her and the children. He had absolutely no interaction with Chelsea. How was it possible that he was suddenly marrying her?If he was going to

Trust Capital was indeed wealthy, but Avery's company was not some lousy company!If Elliot truly was someone who cared about profits, then he would not have spent all of that money on her over the years.There would also be no reason to waste so much time on herAvery believed that, as long as Elliot was willing, he could find the richest woman in the world and marry her for the biggest profit.However, he never did anything like that. There was also no reason for him to betray himself for Trust Capital.Avery's intuition told her that there was something strange about the entire thing, so she wiped her tears away and decided to find a chance to talk to Elliot about it.The next morning, Elliot got up, then stood by the bed and watched Avery's sleeping face.He could not bring himself to wake her.He had to return to Aryadelle today.Charlie had sent him a text saying that the Tierneys have made all the arrangements for the wedding, and warned him that they would announce the

As Elliot gazed at Avery's determined face, he more or less confirmed that she knew about him and Chelsea.She was fine when they went out yesterday. If she had found out the day before, she would not have happily brought him out to take the family portraits.Someone must have told her about it after he fell asleep the night before."I'll leave tomorrow, then." Elliot did not know how to answer Avery's question. All he could do was go along with her.He would rather leave a day late than explain the real reason he was returning to Aryadelle.Avery let go of his hand, but her eyes continued to stay on him as she said coldly, "When did you and Chelsea make up, Elliot?""I haven't seen her in a long time," Elliot answered truthfully.What those words meant, was that he did not make up with her."I see… You didn't see her after she got hurt?""I didn't." Elliot hung his head slightly. Avery's gaze made him feel like he was enduring the most severe punishment."Do you like her, th

If Layla found out that her father was about to return to Aryadelle to marry another woman, she would be devastated!Once Hayden found out about this, he would definitely despise Elliot even more.Was Elliot really doing this for the sake of profit? If not, then why was he doing it?He had said himself that he did not love Chelsea.Was money more important than love and their three children?Avery could not understand Elliot's decision.He was more than capable of earning his own money, and a lot of it at that. Her company was also steadily making a profit. How much money did he need to finally be satisfied?Tears streamed down Avery's cheeks and soaked her pillow.When there were no longer any sounds coming from outside the door, she turned on her back and stared at the ceiling as she cried silently.Downstairs, once Elliot was done with breakfast, he picked Robert up in his arms.Robert's glistening black eyes were fixed on his father's face, and Elliot wondered what he was

Avery never believed in fate.Even if life wanted to stop her, she would never give in that easily.She opened the car door then stepped into the cold winter snow without hesitation.She ran frantically toward the airport.There was only one ending she wanted. She was not going to let Elliot go just like that!At the VIP waiting lounge at the airport, Elliot lifted his wrist and checked the time on his watch.His flight was one in the afternoon. There was another hour until the plane would take off.He stood by the giant windows and his heart felt as cold as the fluttering snowfall outside.If there was any other way, he would never do anything to hurt Avery and the children.Being cruel to her and the children was the same as being cruel to himself. He would be in more agony than them.Charlie had something on Elliot and was now forcing him to marry Chelsea. He had no other choice.If he did not act out this play, there would be no end to the torment he would have to endure
Chapter 845
After Avery spoke, the security personnel reminded Elliot that it was time to board the plane."I need to head back to Aryadelle to settle some things, Avery. Please give me some time…""I won't! If I give you time, then you'll go and marry Chelsea! I won't accept you marrying another woman, Elliot! It doesn't matter if it's with Chelsea or anybody else! As long as I'm not the bride, I won't allow it!" Avery clenched her teeth, then said, "If you leave today, you can forget about ever seeing me or the kids ever again!"Since her begging did not work, she could only resort to threatening him.If the Tierneys were using something to threaten or lure him, then she could threaten him, too!She refused to believe that the Tierneys had a bigger bargaining chip than she did.Elliot's eyes were reddened and glistening with tears as he gazed at Avery with a pained expression on his face.He had gone from being forcibly calm to teary-eyed in a matter of seconds.Avery had pushed him to t
