Elliot held Avery in his arms and carried her to the couch.
"Stay home, Avery.I'll go see Chelsea now." He gazed into her eyes and promised, "I will make her pay
the most severe consequences." Avery nodded her head.
Elliot and Chad left moments later.
In the car, Elliot dialed Chelsea's number on his phone.It took a few tries for his call to get answered.
In the past, she had always picked up his calls within seconds.
Chelsea did not speak after she answered the call.She knew that something bad must have happened
for him to call her.
"Where are you right now?" Elliot asked in a deep voice.
Chelsea felt chills run through her entire body.
"Is there something I can help you with?"
"Yes,"
"What is it? Let's just talk about it on the phone! I'm afraid to meet you." There was a hint of caution in
Chelsea's tone.
Elliot could read her thoughts, and said, "I feel very bad about hitting you before.I'd like to meet and
apologize." Chelsea laughed out loud, then said, "Even if you think you went too far, you would never
go out of your way to apologize to me.I know you too well, Elliot."
"You must have misunderstood me.I always apologize when I make a mistake in front of Avery."
"There are no misunderstandings.I said you wouldn't apologize to me, not that you wouldn't apologize
to Avery Tate."
Chelsea felt her heart turn cold, then continued, "I've thought about it in the past couple of days,
Elliot.We were a mistake from the very beginning.No matter how you treated me, it was all because of
my own doing.My brother said I asked for it, and I agree with him."
Elliot's patience was reaching its limit.He did not want to listen to her reminisce the past and sum up
her experience at all.
"Are you in the country or abroad, Chelsea?" he asked.
"Do you want to see me that badly?" The gears turned in Chelsea's head.
Then, she said sharply, "Let me guess.You're definitely not in a hurry to see me just so you can
apologize.Could it be..."
"I don't recall you being someone who dillydallies."
"Don't tell me that you found evidence to prove that I was the one behind all those crimes?" Chelsea
guessed bravely.
"Did Cole Foster tell you about it? He can't be trusted at all! Avery Tate bribed him.Did you forget that
they used to date?" There was no way she would admit that she did all those things.
"Chelsea, I want to meet you, so you can see the proof you want with your own eyes." Elliot's every
word was cold Jeerie.
"It doesn't matter if you're here or abroad.I will find you." On the other end of the line, the color drained
from Chelsea's face out of fear.
"What proof? What proof did you find?!"
"Your transaction records on the Bridgedale Darknet Organization website." Elliot's Adam's apple
bobbed in his throat.
Then, he roared furiously, "You sadistic madwoman! I'll kill you with my own two hands! That's the only
way to get over the resentment I feel for you!" Chelsea's grip loosened, and her phone fell with a bang
to the ground.
How did he find her transaction records on the Darknet website?! How did he find them?! She had
thought that this was a secret that would never be found out! The friends who introduced her to the
website guaranteed that everything that happened on it would never be exposed to the public.
She took a deep breath, then bent over and picked up her phone.She stared coldly at the phone screen
as her slender finger pressed down on the power button.
Very quickly, her phone turned off.
Elliot wanted to kill her, but she did not want to die! She had to hide! She could not let him find her!
