Elliot did not want to go home, nor did he want to go for team building.
Chad saw how in pain Elliot seemed, he suggested, “Why don’t you go on a holiday? Where do you
want to go? I’ll book a hotel for you.”
Elliot pondered for a moment before saying, “I want to drink.”
Chad was speechless. Was this the reason why Elliot chose to attend this meeting?
An hour later, Elliot was drunk, as he wished.
After Chad sent him home, he let out a sigh of relief. Although drinking was bad for the body, if Elliot did
not drink himself drunk, he would not be able to sleep.
Coming out from Elliot’s mansion, Chad dialed Mike. “Doesn’t Avery have a guilty conscience? Mr.
Foster sacrificed his effort and money but what else does she know how to do other than hurt him?”
It was night in Bridgedale at that moment.
Mike rubbed the middle of his brows and yawned. “What nonsense are you talking about again?
Hmm?”
“Didn’t Avery break up with him? How cruel and heartless is she!” Chad spat.
“Chad, do you treat Elliot as your bloody father or do you treat him as your son?” Mike said angrily,
“How is their affair any of your business? Stop caring!”
“Are you yelling at me?”
“I am yelling at you!” Mike got more spirited the more he yelled. He got down from the bed and took a
cup of water to hydrate himself. “The child in Avery is most likely unhealthy. The doctor said that she
must abort. She is currently extremely upset. Do you think your boss is the only sad one?!”
Chad touched his nose. “Oh…so that’s why! Did they break up because of this?”
“You can say so! Elliot felt that Avery should listen to the doctor to abort the child, but Avery can’t do it.
Avery did not want to drag him down. She wants to bring the child up on her own, so she broke it off
with him. Is Avery wrong?”
“Such a huge thing has happened. Why didn’t you tell me?” Chad calmed down.
“I didn’t even have the time to sleep for the past few days, how could I tell you?”
“Okay then, go to sleep!” Chad felt a little disappointed. “Right, when are you guys coming back?”
“I don’t know. I haven’t discussed this with her.”
“Oh, since the doctor said that the child has problems, she should listen to the doctor and abort the
child. If she gives birth to an unhealthy child. It will also be torture for the child,” Chad expressed his
opinions before hanging up.
Mike lay in bed. “Have you forgotten that she is a doctor? What if she could cure the child?
Furthermore, the child is almost four months old. She has a bond with it. It’s only normal that she
doesn’t want to abort it.”
“Hmm. This is such a terrible thing! It was supposed to be a happy thing, yet it turned into a tragedy.”
Chad thought about how they had already reconciled before heading to Bridgedale.
Life was truly unpredictable.
“Now that they are apart, it’ll be good for them to calm down too. Perhaps a few days later, Avery has
thought it through and decides to have an abortion,” Mike said, “She utterly refuses to have the
abortion right now perhaps because Elliot’s attitude toward the child agitated her.”
“Try to talk to her! Whether she wants the child or not, don’t be too upset. I’ll wait for you guys to come
back, and we’ll meet soon.”
“Okay.”
