“I accepted the offer because I feel relaxed whenever I’m with Shea and I love it,” he continued, “Elliot then gave
my parents a tremendous amount of money in secret.”|
Avery’s lips curled into a smile. “You should take the money if he insists.”
Wesley shook his head. “I told my parents to donate the money. I don’t like the feeling of being a charity case. It
makes me look pitiable, but I’ve never considered myself that way.”
“Maybe he doesn’t mean it like that,35 Wesley.”
Wesley looked over with gentle eyes and responded in a calm tone, “I know he meant well. Avery, if you can say all
these things to me, why couldn’t you think the same way?”
She blushed slightly. “Can’tee I?”
“It’s not wise for you to break up with Elliot. You are pregnant and you need someone to take care of you.” Wesley
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtstudied her face and deadpanned, “after what happened, can you not tell how he feels about you?”
Avery lowered her gaze as her heart grewóf heavier.
“You are gentle and reasonable in front of everyone else; you only become rude and arrogant whenever you are
with him. He’s spoiled you.”
“Wesley, how can you say that about me?” Avery felt a bit68 misunderstood.
Wesley’s tone softened and said, “it just pains me to watch you raise three kids on your own.”
“Hayden and Layla have grown up and they don’t worry me,” she said, “you probably think that Elliot acts as
mature to me as he does in front of everyone else, don’t you? He talked about Chelsea yesterday on purpose to
piss me off. He is ridiculous and childish, and I might as well depend on myself instead of hoping that he can raiseja
children.”
Wesley had no experience in this regard and was rendered speechless.
That afternoon, Avery received a call from Chelsea.
Elliot had told her to contact Chelsea to pay him back the night before. However, Avery didn’t feel comfortable
about it and did not reach out to Chelsea, but to her surprise, Chelsea took the initiative to call her.
“Avery, you can come to me directly from now on to pay your debt to Elliot,” Chelsea said in a professional tone,
“Elliot is planning on setting up a foundation and all the money you return will be donated to the cause. I am in
charge of the foundation’s operation.”
Avery scowled at Chelsea’s words and said, “send me the account details for that foundation
of yours, then.”
“The foundation is not set up yet. I will notify you when it is officially established,” Chelsea said.
“Okay.”
“If you don’t mind me asking, Avery, is there something wrong with your baby?” Chelsea asked in an innocent tone.
Like a cat when its tail had been stepped on, Avery instantly became defensive. “Is that what he told you?”
“No. He set up this foundation to help children with intellectual disability. Truth is, he really hates kids, and yet he

because your baby…suffers from the same issue.”
Avery’s blood ran cold. From Chelsea’s tone, she knew that she was being mocked.

That night, Avery couldn’t fall asleep.
She laid on bed staring at the canopy as countless memories flashed by before her eyes.
Everything felt as though it had only happened yesterday, when in reality, everything had changed. For the sake of
her children and the people that cared for her, Avery vowed to become even stronger and powerful than she was.
The next day, Avery was invited to a business summit and she was surrounded by reporters the moment she
entered the venue
“Miss. Tate, we heard that you scammed 400 million out of Elliot Foster, may I know if that’s true?”
Avery remained calm and turned to face the camera. “It’s true.”
“…” Everyone was instantly rendered speechless.
“You have to be joking, Miss. Tate. If it’s indeed true, why hasn’t he sued you?” The reporter continued.
“Because Mr. Foster is far too rich and 1400 million means nothing to him.”
“If any one of you wants to become rich overnight, all you need to do is lie to him. He’s easily fooled.”
