Chapter 471 It was nothing but a ludicrous fantasy!
With reddened eyes, Elliot stood from the couch.
“Don’t ever come here again,” Avery said as she lifted her cold gaze at him. “I’m sure you haven’t forgotten what
you did to my son before. He will always recall what happened that day every time he lays eyes on you.”
Elliot’s Adam’s apple rolled in his25 throat.
“All you saw was that I attacked him, but did you ever ask him what he said to me?”
“No matter what he said to you, you could always retaliate with your words. Was there a need to use9c force?”
She was right.
He was in the23 wrong!
“That’s exactly that kind of ruthless, savage person!” Elliot snapped.
“I don’t need a self introduction!” Avery said as she shot a glare at him. “I already know2a that!”
The light extinguished from Elliot’s eyes as hopelessness took over.
He suppressed his desire to explain himself and maintain the little reason and self respect he had35 left.

Avery took a deep breath.
She watched with reddened eyes as Elliot stepped out of the villa.
She continued to watch as he chucked that lavish gift right into the trash can in the front yard!
What a maniac!
Not only was he insane, he wanted to make everyone around him lose their minds as well!
Once Elliot drove off, Avery walked outside with gritted teeth.
The bodyguard noticed she was walking outside as he emerged from the kitchen, then quickly followed behind her.
“Where are you going, Miss Tate?”
Avery did not respond.
She stopped in front of the gates, opened up the trash can, then pulled out the gift box that Elliot threw in earlier.
The bodyguard was dumbfounded.
Avery could have ordered him to go through the trash. There was no need for her to do something like that herself!
“It’s a good thing we use trash bags in the house,” said the bodyguard as he tried to lighten up the awkward
atmosphere. “The gift box still looks pretty clean!”
Avery’s hands clenched tightly around the box, then she went back into the house.
The bodyguard trailed along behind her and rambled, “Forgive me for speaking out of turn, Miss Tate, but Mr. Foster
has been really polite since he got here earlier… Maybe you shouldn’t have rained on his parade. Since you picked
up his gift, it shows that you’re not a heartless, cold blooded person. Why are you always acting like such a cruel
woman?”
Avery suddenly turned to face him.
I
“There isn’t enough time in the world to explain the grudge between us. You don’t need to know what happened
between us, but you shouldn’t come to your own conclusions about it.”
She raised the box in her hand, then continued, “As to why I went back for this… It’s because I’m not used to seeing
people trample on beautiful things! I hate him because this is something he always does!”
The bodyguard was speechless.
The Memorial Day weekend went by in a breeze.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAt the president’s office at Sterling Group, Ben knocked on the office doors and entered the
room.
He walked towards the desk, then placed a few books on top of it.
“Elliot, I got these from the bookstore for you. I hope they’re helpful to you.”
Elliot glanced coldly at the pile of books. “The Pregnancy Bible” “The Sears Encyclopedia of Intimate Parenting”
“Caring for your Fetus”
“Caring for your Baby”
Elliot shoved the books into his desk drawer.
Ben pursed his lips, then said with a confused look on his face, “Why do you look so depressed when you’re about
to be a dad? Don’t you want the kid? From what I heard, you seem to really want this kid!”
“Why didn’t you hear about my fight with Avery, then?”
“Oh… About that… I might have heard something about it. Women lose their temper easily when they’re pregnant.
Hang in there.”
“She’s upset about my past with Zoe. She knew I was forced into it, but she doesn’t care about the reason, only the
result,” Elliot said as a wave of gloom washed over his face. “She doesn’t love me, so she can’t accept even the
smallest mistake from me.”
