Chapter 616
At eight in the evening, the black Rolls-Roice slowly drove to Starry River Villa.
Mike heard movements and came out from the villa.
“Elliot, it’s late. What are you doing here?” Mike coldly jabbed, “Didn’t you say you’ll come by in the afternoon? It’s
already dark. Is your afternoon different from others?”
Elliot looked up and said, “Is there any difference between me coming now and this 46 afternoon?”
“Of course, there is. If you came in the afternoon, Avery would still be at home. Avery is not at home now.” Mike
stood in the yard. He did not bother to open the gate. “I won’t welcome you in then.”
Elliot’s chest constricted tightly. “Where did she34 go?”
“You tell me first. What were you doing this afternoon? Why did you say you would come this afternoon, but didn’t
appear?” Mike asked haughtily.
Elliot swallowed his saliva and said in a low voice, “Nora insisted on being discharged in the afternoon. I sent her
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtback. Her family insisted that I stay for dinner, I can’t refusecd them.”
Mike sneered. “If her family asks you to stay for the night, you won’t be able to refuse them as well?”
Mike said, “So, what if I stayed the night! You have no right judging me on high! Where isge Avery?”
“I don’t know,” Mike said quickly, “It’s pointless if you glare at me. She said she went out for a meal. She didn’t say
who she was eating with.”
Mike was afraid that Elliot would flare-up. He immediately turned around and returned to the23 villa.
Elliot’s gaze darkened. He fished his phone out, found Avery’s contact, and dialed her.
Avery saw his incoming call. She did not pick up, and neither did she dare to hang his call up. She was afraid that he
might keep calling if she hung up.
Avery turned off the ringing tone and put her phone in her bag. She wanted to pretend to be not angry, but her
body expressed otherwise.
Elliot said that he would come to look for her in the afternoon, yet up till evening, he did not even come. Avery did
not think much about it, but Tammy sent her a photo.
It was a photo of Elliot sitting together with Nora. There were other people next to them too. They were having a
meal together.
It was a feast. Besides Elliot, the other people were all smiles. The harmonious scene was like a family reunion.
Tammy told Avery that Chelsea posted this photo on social media, so Chelsea was the one that took the photo. Elliot
delayed looking for her because of Nora.
Elliot could not get to Avery, so he could only call Tammy. Avery only had a few friends. She was either with Tammy
or Wesley.
“Avery is not with me!” Tammy picked up the call and teased, “Aren’t you together with the copy of Avery? Is your
party done? You’re finally thinking of the real Avery?”
Elliot heard Tammy’s mocks. He did not want to argue with her, so he hung up.
He found Wesley’s contact and dialed. It was only picked up after a few seconds.
“Wesley, is Avery with you?” Elliot stood by the side of his car, looking at the endless dark skies. His expressions
were glum.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe went to Nora’s house today. Her family took her past photos to show him. He looked at Nora’s past photos and
realized that Nora did indeed look like Avery, so it was most probably a coincidence that Nora looks like Avery. It was
not that she has done her face up to look like Avery.
However, Avery’s friends had already determined that Nora was a fake.
“No, why?” Wesley hesitated for a few seconds before replying.
Elliot furrowed his brows even tighter. “She went out for a meal. I thought she would be with her friends. Since
she’s not with you, I’ll hang up.”
“Okay,” Wesley said and hung up. Then, he looked at Avery. “How long can you avoid him for?
Avery lowered her gaze and ate in small mouthfuls. “I don’t want to talk to him right now. When in a bad mood, it’s
best I don’t let it explode. Once I’ve calmed down, maybe I won’t be that angry anymore.”
Wesley said, “Although I have never seen that woman that looks like you, I think even if she has done her face up to
look like you, she will never be you. Your knowledge and capabilities. No one can mimic you. I believe that Elliot
knows about this.” Avery replied, “Wesley, as long as I don’t see him, I won’t get angry at all.”
