Her eyes reddened as she went to call a certain number that she had not contacted in a while.
As soon as she made the call, she heard a sweet voice coming from the other end of the line.
“Have you dialed the wrong number, Doctor Sanford? It’s been so, so long since you last contacted me
and here I thought that you have completely forgotten about me! Hahaha!”
Chelsea’s smug laughter came from the speaker of the phone.
At the very beginning, it was Chelsea who brought Zoe back from Bridgedale; Chelsea was also the
one who told her that she would gain so much more if she listened to Chelsea, but she didn’t listen.
Once she obtained the leverage against Elliot, she cast Chelsea aside immediately.
“What are you laughing at, Chelsea?!”
“I’m laughing at you, of course! You are out of the game now.” Chelsea’s tone was cheerful.
“I can destroy you as easily as squishing an ant right now, but that’s beneath me and I don’t want to get
filth on my6f hands.”
“Really?” Zoe mumbled, “and what have you gotten so far? Elliot belongs to Avery, not you!”
“Hahaha! Elliot doesn’t belong to me, but the person next to him right now is not you nor Avery,”
Chelsea drawled, “it’s me. It’s me, Chelsea! I have been patient for over a year; I watched you build
yourself up and fall apart in the end… I knew that you would end up like this!”
“Oh? Why don’t you predict what’s going to happen to Avery in the future, then?” Zoe asked sincerely.
“Hahaha! She will end up just like you! Don’t you think that it’s going to make a difference just because
she has a few kids!” Chelsea was certain of her victory.
“Elliot will never settle down for anyone and I am the only one who can give him the freedom heza
wants.”
After the call, Zoe’s heart was filled with disgust. She and Avery had fought one another so hard that
they forgot there was someone lurking behind them.
Chelsea was far too talented in scheming that it was almost chilling. Zoe knew that even if she was to
team up with Avery, they would be no match to Chelsea.
Avery went home after meeting with Zoe and called Tammy.
“Avery, you are finally back! Are you home now? I’ll go find you! I heard that you took a bullet and
wanted to go find you in Bridgedale but Jun said I would only hinder your recovery,” Tammy said in
excitement.
“I’ve already recovered,” Avery relaxed on the couch and said, “I haven’t even told Mike that I’m back
yet! You are the first one I thought of telling.”
“Wow, I’m so touched by that! I am heading over right now! There’s a piece of gossip I need to tell you
in person! Wait for me!” Tammy said, before hanging up.
Half an hour later, Tammy arrived with a big pile of gifts in her hands.
“Why do you always have to bring so many things over, Tammy? Don’t you get tired?” Avery sighed.
“Have you forgotten that my family runs supermarkets?” Tammy set the gifts down and held Avery’s
hands to scan her up and down.
“You lost weight! Is the baby okay? I was so worried about you and the baby.”
“Everything is fine with us.” Avery beamed at her and changed the subject by asking, “you told me that
there’s a piece of gossip you want to share with me, what’s that about?”
A troubled expression appeared on Tammy’s face.
“I’m worried that you will get upset if I tell you this…but I can’t bear not being able to talk about it
either.”
“Then spill! I won’t get upset,” Avery promised, “I have really high tolerance now after the close-death
experience.”
“It’s about that jerk Elliot! He is messing around with Chelsea again.” Tammy snorted and continued,
“old habits die hard, I guess!”
The smile on Avery’s face froze.
“Don’t get upset, Avery! It’s not worth it for that jerk!” Tammy comforted her.
Avery was about to say something to cover up her emotions, when the phone on the table rang. She
immediately picked up the phone.
