Chapter 573 “Chad, did Elliot deactivate his account?” Avery looked up at Chad.
Chad was taken by surprise and said, “he didn’t tell me to do anything like that so I’m not sure. Are you having
issues transferring money to his account?”
Avery nodded.
“I’ll go ask about it when I go to work tomorrow,” Chad said awkwardly, “maybe he doesn’t want to take your
money35 anymore!” “That’s funny. Does he intend on keeping Avery on his debt?” Tammy directed her frustration
towards Chad and questioned sharply, “what exactly is his relationship with Chelsea? Jun said that Elliot brought
Chelsea along the last time they ate together.”
Chad was starting to sweat. “… They are colleagues, I guess! He’s known Chelsea for years so he would sometimes
take her out foree meals.”

what colleagues do in your company?”
“Tammy Lynch, it’s really not necessary for you to say all these things in front of Avery and heróf children.”
“Are you embarrassed, too?” Tammy had always been hot-tempered and straight-forward.
“What does that have to do with me being embarrassed? Avery is the one who wanted to break up and now that
they broke up, my boss has every right to be with anyone he68 wants…”
“You’ve finally admitted that he is with Chelsea.” Tammy sneered.
“Why exactly are you venting your anger on me? Wasn’t Avery the one who told him to go 9 back to his life?” Chad
was agitated and retorted, “if Avery is jealous right now, then I can only say that it’s all her ownza fault!”
Tammy was so angry that her lips began to tremble.
“Chad Rayner! You are f*cking out of line! You better look around and see whose house you are in right now!” Mike
roared.
Chad stood up abruptly from his chair and said, “Sorry! I will leave!” The atmosphere in the dining room was
chillingly awkward after Chad was gone.
“I’m sorry, Avery,” Tammy muttered guiltily, “it’s my fault…”
“I shouldn’t have brought him here for dinner,” Mike said.
Avery finished the food on her plate and set her cutleries down. “Chad isn’t wrong, and neither are you. It’s my own
issue.”
With that, she stood up and walked out of the dining room.
She had been trying to strike a balance in everything, but there had never been such a way. Love to her was two
people growing together, not one dragging the other down. Even if she hadn’t broken up with Elliot, she would still
try to pay back the money she owed him; besides, she did not regret her decision.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe stress that loomed over her was too heavy when she needed to take care of her debt along with the baby in
her belly.
Once she was back in her room, she closed the door. After taking some time to regain her composure, she called
Elliot.
“Elliot, did you deactivate your bank account?”.
“How much have you gathered to pay me back this time?” He asked in an emotionless voice.
She ignored his sarcasm and retorted, “would you rather I pay you back in cash?!”
“Contact Chelsea.” He seemed to have no intention of arguing with her and continued in a calm tone, “contact her
directly to pay your debt from now on.”
Avery pursed her lips as her mind went blank.
“Are you happy now, Avery?” He asked coldly, “Chelsea is obedient, understanding, and never pisses me off. I only
need to indulge in what she gives me when I’m with her; I don’t have to guess what she’s thinking all the time like a
fool…”
Avery listened to his bragging and felt her stomach turning in response. “Ugh!” Elliot’s voice stopped on the other
end of the line, and his expression immediately darkened.
