“But I can’t wait to go in and have a look!” Nora pleaded, “Elliot, can you bring me in? I promise I won’t
cause you any trouble. Also, as a fan of Dream City, I can give my opinions and suggestions once I
have a look inside!”
Elliot pondered for a few seconds before agreeing.
Once they had their safety helmets on, they followed the project manager to the site.
The project manager updated the progress of every single site, as well as the remaining workload and
timeline of the46 project.
Nora listened attentively. She could occasionally chime in. It was obvious that she was a true fan of
Dream City.
“Nora, after Dream City is completed, I can transfer you over here to work.” Elliot thought that this
decision would make her very happy, but there was no smile on Nora’s face.
“Won’t that mean I will be far apart from Chelsea?” She muttered, “Elliot, I can come here every week
to play! Don’t transfer me here, please?”
Elliot looked at how coquettish she was being, pleading in a soft, gentle way. Avery’s face appeared on
his mind once again!
Avery was rarely that coquettish with him. Even when they first started dating, she was rarely like that.
Elliot was clear that Nora was not Avery but looking at Nora always made him think of Averyge
involuntarily.
He quickly stopped looking at Nora.
“Elliot, there is one thing I have to explain to you.” Nora noticed that Elliot’s expressions were rather
unnatural. She guessed what he was thinking.
“I did not make my face look like Avery. I only had my nose done because it was injured, and it could
not heal on its own. The doctors advised me to undergo cosmetic surgery. I can let you see my
previous photos.”
When Elliot heard what she said, he was even soberer.
“No need. You are you and Avery is Avery. Even if you made your face look like Avery, in my eyes, you
are not the same person.”
Nora nodded obediently. The next second, she looked behind Elliot and her expression suddenly
changed. She protected Elliot.
“Elliot, look out!”
Elliot could not react in time. Nora had already hugged him from behind tightly!He quickly turned
around to see a metal rod stabbed into Nora!
If Nora did not stand in front of him suddenly, protecting him, he would be the one that was punctured
by the metal rod.
Nora was in a floral dress. Her dress was punctured too. Blood could be seen flowing!
Elliot tensed and yelled, “Call an ambulance!”
When Avery returned from Bridgedale, she heard a rumor that Nora was hurt and admitted to the
hospital because she saved Elliot.
“Chad didn’t tag along with Elliot, so I don’t know the details,” Mike teased, “I don’t understand. Why
would a metal rod suddenly appear? It was aiming at Elliot too! Was it God who wanted him dead or
did he owe his workers their pay and they wanted to kill him?”
Avery ignored his mocks at Elliot. She asked, “Are Nora’s injuries serious?”
“Only a scratch.” Elliot sent her to the hospital personally and even reserved a special care unit for her.
Mike’s tone was rather sardonic.
“Initially, Elliot didn’t want to see this counterfeit woman, now he owes her one.”
Avery said, “Since she’s already injured, you don’t have to bad mouth her behind her back.”
“Who knew if this injury was deliberate or not? If she could make herself look like you, you don’t know
where her limits are,” Mike said and warned, “Elliot will come over to look for you later. I’m guessing to
settle the score with you!”
Avery yawned. “I’ll go to my room and rest first. Wake me up when he is here.”
She returned to her room and slept till evening because Elliot did not come to look for her.
