Chapter 525 Elliot, Chad and Ben never left since they arrived that morning.
They had spent their time touring Tate Industries.
At least, that was their excuse. Their true motive was to stay for lunch.
“Wanda Tate is a master of marketing,” Ben said with his phone in his hand. “She hit a brick wall running into us,35
though.”
“Even so, their sales aren’t bad,” Chad said. “There is still huge potential in the lower-income market.”
“They’re selling their products for cheap, after all! They’re losing money to earn a good reputation. The more they
sell, the more money they lose… Their original plan was to quickly take over the market and run Tate Industries out
of business, then monopolize the market and raise their prices,” Ben said. “Now, they’ve realized that Tate
Industries isn’t as easy to bring down as they’d thought. Which is why they’re coming up with othere8 ideas.”
“Are they cutting down costs? Or are they planning on conquering the lower and middle income markets while
continuing to make big promises to their investors, then get publicly listed?” Chad chimed in.
“All of that. They still have plenty of investors who believe in them.” Ben laughed, then said,” Wanda Tate really
does have a knack for79 business.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAvery was ordering dishes with the menu in her hands, but her ears were closely listening to their conversation.
Elliot noticed her absentmindedness, then leaned in and whispered in her ear, “You don’t need to be afraid of
Wanda. She can’t touch87 you.”
Avery’s cheeks flushed.
“I’m not afraid of her. I’m trying to decide between getting orange juice or watermelonja
juice.”
“Get one of each, then.”
“Okay…”
Avery finished ordering, then handed the menu over to Elliot.
“You’re over three months pregnant now, Avery. How are you feeling?” Ben asked, shifting the subject to her.
“Apart from the occasional nausea, I don’t feel any differently.”
This pregnancy was more relaxed than her last.
“That’s good. Do you only have a day-time nanny at home right now?” Ben asked. “Shouldn’t you hire a live-in
nanny later on in your pregnancy? Mike is a man, after all. It wouldn’t be too convenient for him to help out if
anything happens to you…”
Elliot glanced at Avery from the corner of his eye. She responded calmly, “I’m still a long way from the late stages
of my pregnancy. I’ll think about it later on.”
“Hahaha! I don’t know why you’re the one who’s pregnant, but I’m getting nervous. It’s as if the baby you’re
carrying is mine…” Ben teased with a chuckle.
“You’ll scare the boss if you say that, Ben. He doesn’t want to have a baby with you!” Chad said.
Everyone burst into laughter, which immediately livened up the atmosphere.
Avery took advantage of everyone’s good mood to ask a question.
“What are men most afraid of? Is it losing money, or being cheated on?”
“Being cheated on!” Mike was the first to answer.
Chad nodded his head in agreement.
“I can accept getting dumped, but I can’t accept getting cheated on,” Ben answered.
Avery did not turn to Elliot, because his answer would most likely be the same.
She wanted to find the time to tell him about Zoe’s infidelity, but she was hesitating now.
How could someone as proud as him handle that kind of bombshell?
On Wednesday, Avery contacted Zoe, who had just returned from her vacation.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe two met at a cafe.
Zoe glared at Avery resentfully.
“Are you here to show off…”
Zoe began to speak, but Avery’s palm landed on her cheek in a hard slap!
“I know all about you and Cole. This slap is for the innocent child you murdered.”
Zoe held onto her cheek as her eyes widened dramatically!
How did Avery find out?
Who was the one who told her about it?!
“Elliot… He…” Zoe stammered, unable to let out a complete sentence.
“He doesn’t know. Let this disgusting matter rot in your hearts!” Avery picked up a napkin and wiped her hands. “If
he finds out, he’d send the both of you straight to hell!”
Zoe’s face was a look of absolute terror as she slumped back into her seat.
Avery walked out of the cafe and drove the car toward the Starry River Villa.
There was an express delivery from abroad that required her signature.
She wondered why there was a package when she did not purchase anything. She had no idea who could have sent
it, let alone what was in the package.
