Elliot noticed and mirrored her motions. Half an hour later, he placed all the unshelled pistachios into a bowl and pushed it towards Avery.Avery took one glance and said, "I don't want it.""Then I won't continue."Avery passed the bowl to Tammy and Tammy's expression instantly transformed into a face that looked worse than crying. "Your man gave that to you, so I'm not going to be the third wheel here! Besides, it's bad to eat too many nuts!"Avery immediately took the bowl back."I'm fine with ruining my health, give it to me!" Mike snatched the bowl from Avery and said cheerfully to Elliot, "I guess a successful man is just good at everything. You are definitely going to win if there's a competition for deshelling nuts."Avery noticed that Elliot's expression had darkened from the corner of her eyes. She took a deep breath and took the bowl back from Mike.Ben was trying his best to hold his laughter in.Chad kicked at Mike."Why are you kicking at me? Elliot knows to des

She felt dazed.They were sitting right next to one another, was it necessary to chat through messages?After sending Avery the message, Elliot opened the chat group while waiting for her to reply.'Tammy is so fierce! What kind of script is that? If this is a TV show, I am definitely going to call whoever directed it a mad man; but why do those words sound so romantic coming out of Tammy's mouth?' Ben typed.'Jun knows Tammy best, after all! Does this mean we need to make a transaction to Jun now?' Chad typed.'Jun has earned a fortune this time!' Ben replied.'Mike is asking me to add him into this group. Should I?' Chad asked.'You must want it for you to even ask. Go ahead and tell him to send money to Jun as well!''System notification: Mike has entered the chat.'Mike sent an animated picture of himself after entering the chat group and no one could dream of being as coquettish as he was.Elliot, Ben, and Chad all made transactions to the group. Mike had not expected to

He asked his question and directed the microphone at Tammy."...Never again! Jun, even if you don't want me anymore in the future, I will never let go again!""Are you going to find another guy just to annoy me again?!""Never! I won't do that again!" Tammy cried out and threw herself into his arms, before wrapping her arms around him.Below the stage, Mike shouted, "Kiss! Kiss!"No one else cheered along, because this was not what Jun's parents had hoped to see. They had sincerely wanted their son to marry again and start a new life.On the other end, everyone on the bride's side, except for the bride herself, was furious.Chad regretted sitting next to Mike. "Can't you use that mouth of yours to eat?""Ah! They are kissing!" Mike shouted in excitement, "Tammy initiated it!"Had Jun been hesitant and upset before, all the hesitation had faded the moment Tammy kissed him, and he responded passionately.Shortly after, he took Tammy's hand and went towards his parents. "Dad, Mo

She had been in a hurry when she headed out in the morning. Without paying much attention to the weather, she grabbed a jacket and left her house; apart from that, she had not intended on staying outside for long."Let's grab a cup of coffee!" He suggested."I don't want to." She had too much to eat at lunch. "Let's just walk!""Sure."WIth his jacket on her shoulders, she could sense his scent penetrating into her as he occupied her thoughts.If the man next to her wasn't Elliot, she would definitely not remain out in the cold wind."You have misunderstood me the last time we spoke on the phone," he said, breaking the silence. "I didn't mention Shea to evade the topic. I was sad that you said that."Avery's heart settled down at his low, husky voice, though she might have argued with him had he mentioned this on the phone."Why did you mention Shea then? Elliot, we aren't kids anymore and I don't enjoy guessing around." She raised her leg and kicked at a small rock on the road

Startled, she immediately retracted her hand. "Don't touch me, Elliot!"She stared at him in fear as though she was facing a monster.He said he was ill and she thought that she could accept whatever illness he had; but now that he said he had murdered someone, and that it was his father no less, she couldn't find a way to accept it.He felt a lump in his throat at her reaction. There was so much more that he wished to tell her, but he knew that she might not want to listen.The waiter brought over the coffee and set the cups down in front of them.Avery took the cup and took a big sip; Elliot, on the other hand, looked at her calmly and waited for her to calm down."Elliot Foster, if you are capable of murdering your own father, what else are you not capable of in this world?" She had slightly calmed down, but still felt unsettled. She had thought that she knew the man before her, but he could always surprise or scare her."Are you going to judge me without even asking me why I

If only his father was an ordinary father like any other, he would not have become Elliot Foster, known for being ferocious and cruel.Avery stared at him dazedly, unable to say a word.She had never imagined that behind his seemingly successful life, hid such a miserable past. She had thought that she had it hard enough after her father's affair, her parents' divorce and being bullied by her step-mother, she hadn't expected that Elliot had it worse than her.Her misery was on the outside and everyone knew about it; whereas his could only be hidden away within his heart."Don't look at me like that, Avery." He scowled. "I don't need your pity."She shook her head. "I'm not pitying you. I am just thinking if we would have saved all the trouble if only you had told me this earlier.""My personality made it impossible for me to tell you any earlier than this," he said as he strolled forward. "My love for you accumulated day after day until it reached a certain level, before I could

'What is going on with you two right now?' Tammy typed. 'We weren't fighting, but we aren't in the mood to date each other either.' Avery replied. 'My mom said if couples fight too often, even the strongest love would fade.'Avery stared at the message and was not sure how she should reply. Throughout the years, conflicts between Elliot and her had never ceased. She could still remember how deeply in love she was with him in the past. However, she simply couldn't fall back in love again, like a moth to a fire. Elliot must feel the same, otherwise he wouldn't have left her alone on the road after saying that he cared about her most. ....Elliot received a message from Ben. 'Tammy said you two went home separately. It's not even dark yet. Is she still having a hard time forgiving you?''She wants to go home. I am staying out here.' Elliot replied. He could sense that Avery was struggling to forgive him for all the things he had done, so he walked away, allowing both of t

"Are you sure that's what she said?" Elliot asked. The bodyguard's mind went blank and suddenly forgot the exact words Avery used. "Um... In any case, I scolded her and she didn't get angry," he finally said with certainty. "You scolded her?" Elliot scowled as he breathed heavily. "Who gave you the right to scold her?! What did you say?"Feeling slightly scared and guilty, the bodyguard said with no regret, "I said she was ungrateful, which she is! You treat her so well and not only is she not grateful, she argues and fights with you every single day! I think she is even more of a drama queen than Tammy Lynch! I wouldn't put up with her if I was you! I would just dump her and take her children from her, so that she regrets it so much that she cries herself to sleep every night!"Elliot gritted his teeth. He would have punched his bodyguard had he been standing right next to him. The bodyguard noticed the heavy breathing on the other end of the line and was instantly alerted.
