Chapter 1089
The violent mob was very quickly pushed back. Avery pushed through the crowd, rushed to Elliot’s side, and pulled
his rigid body into her arms.
“Elliot! Don’t be afraid! They’re just a bunch of ignorant thugs! You’re not a criminal! You’re
not!”
Even after the perpetrators were dragged off by the police, the surrounding crowd did not put their phones away.
The video of Elliot being surrounded and beaten up was quickly spread online.
News like this where someone high and mighty was dragged off their pedestal always caused heated discussion.
(Oh my god! Is that really Elliot Foster? He looks so miserable! I can’t believe he was beaten up by a crowd in public
like that… If I were him, I wouldn’t dare show my face in public again!]
(Did you guys see how he didn’t dare fight back? It’s proof he really is a murderer!)

b*st*rds like him!]
(Wasn’t he supposed to get married today? From the looks of it, the wedding is probably canceled, right? If I were
the bride, I’d be out of there!)
Over in the Creekview mid-range neighborhood, Nathan was trembling with rage after he watched the video of
Elliot being attacked.
This made him even angrier than when Elliot refused to give him money.
He might not have a normal father and son relationship with Elliot, but Elliot was his biological son.
Every punch that landed on his son was like a punch to him, and he felt ashamed.
He could ignore this matter if he was not in Aryadelle. However, how could he just sit around and do nothing after
seeing Elliot being targeted in front of his own eyes?
“What a loser!” said Peter coldly after watching the video a few times. “Here I thought he was some bigshot, but he
didn’t even fight back as he was getting beaten up! How embarrassing!”
“You’re the loser! How was he supposed to fight back with all of those people beating him up? Have you never
gotten beaten up before?!” Nathan bellowed at the top of his lungs. “What are you shouting at me for, Dad? It’s not
I who was the one who beat him up… Besides, considering how he got you beaten up before, shouldn’t you be
happy to see him being attacked like this?”
“How can I be happy?! He’s my son! Even if he hit me, he’s still my son!” Nathan snapped as his eyes reddened.
“Even the house we’re living in right now was bought with his money! He wasn’t willing to give me a big amount,
but if I ask him for small amounts of money in the
future, he will definitely give it to me!”
“Why are you getting angry? The reality is that he is a murderer. He should get beaten up!” Peter was emotional
GVXNpwae could not hold his tongue. “You little brat! He’s your little brother!” Nathan landed a hard slap on Peter’s
face. “Shut your mouth! Go back to Bridgedale if you’ve got nothing to do here! Take your sister with you! Just
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmlooking at the both of you pathetic losers gives me a headache!” Peter held his sore cheek in his hand, let out a
heavy sigh, went to his room, and packed his suitcase.
Nathan was frustrated. He grabbed his phone and strode to the front door.
Over at the resort, Avery helped Elliot into the villa.
His clothes were covered in shoeprints. His ironed suit was now covered in wrinkles, making him look miserable.
The moment they entered the villa, everyone in the villa froze.
It was not until Avery led Elliot to the master bedroom and Layla began to sob that everyone snapped back to
reality. “Don’t cry, sweetie!” Tammy picked Layla up. She wanted to comfort Layla, but she did not know how to.
Eric took Layla from Tammy and took her out of the tense living room.
In the master bedroom, Avery unbuttoned Elliot’s coat and helped him take it off.
Then, she grabbed a bowl of warm water from the bathroom and wiped the bloodstains and dust from his face and
arms. Of all the years they had known each other, this was the first time Avery saw Elliot being picked on. “I know
you’re going through a hard time right now, Elliot… But…” Avery wiped Elliot’s pale face with a wet cloth as she
choked. “Our wedding…”
At this point, she burst into a gut-wrenching sob. “Should we even still continue with our wedding?” thought Avery.
