“Give Master Elliot a call, Avery. Ask him to get someone to check it out,” suggested Mrs. Cooper.” Why
would Cole come to such a secluded place? I bet he’s got something up his sleeve and wants to cause a
scene tomorrow.” .
“Okay. I’ll let him know when I see him later.”
“Listen, Avery. Henry might look like a good man, but he really isn’t,” Mrs. Cooper said as she held
Robert with a stern expression on her face. “Don’t think that Cole turned into a bad apple all by himself.
He was influenced by his parents. His mother was a monster, but his father isn’t that far off. Those who
sleep in the same bed wouldn’t be that different, after all.”
Avery pondered this for a moment with furrowed brows, then said, “I vaguely remember how Cole tried to
use me to get his hands on Elliot’s inheritance back when he was in a vegetative state. I doubt he came
up with such a despicable plan by himself!”
“That’s right! Didn’t Cole come to see Master Elliot after he woke up? Master Elliot threw a huge fit, “Mrs.
Cooper said as she revealed everything that had happened all of those years ago. “Don’t you think
Master Elliot knows what kind of people they are? He wouldn’t be this heartless if Henry weren’t that
evil.”
Avery was silent.
“We have to keep an eye out for the two of them tomorrow,” said Mrs. Cooper, reminding her to tell Elliot
that she had seen Cole.
“I agree. I’ll talk to Elliot after this.”
Once the car approached the resort, Avery immediately saw Elliot.
He was chatting with some friends outside while he waited for her and Robert.
When he saw the car approaching, he immediately walked toward them.
Once the driver brought the car to a halt, Avery opened the door and got out.
“Elliot,” Avery said when she stood in front of him. “Send someone outside to check things out. I saw
Cole just now.”
Elliot raised his brows and asked, “Are you certain?”
“Mrs. Cooper saw him too. He was speaking to a stranger by the street. I have a feeling he showed up
tonight because of some scheme he has planned.” Avery did not want them to affect the wedding the
next day.
“Don’t worry. I’ll send someone to check it out,” said Elliot, placating her. “Even if they’re scheming
something, they won’t be able to get into the resort to mess anything up.”
Avery frowned DPLVZA:4 said, “But I don’t want them to ruin the mood at the wedding tomorrow. They
can mess things up whenever they want, just not tomorrow.”
Sometimes, the more afraid you are of something, the more likely it would happen.
Seeing how nervous Avery was feeling affected Elliot’s mood too.
It looked like Henry was planning on revealing all of his scandals at the wedding the next day!
Elliot had been waiting for Henry to contact him these past few days, but Henry did nothing of the sort.
Elliot had tried to guess what Henry was thinking, but he could not figure it out. If Henry wanted money
from him, then Elliot would be willing to give him however much he wanted as long as the price was
reasonable.
Henry’s lack of initiative made Elliot feel even more uneasy.
He knew that the lack of contact meant that Henry had something much bigger in mind.
Elliot sent his subordinates to check things out, then took Robert from Mrs. Cooper.
Robert had taken a nap in the car, so his black eyes were glistening with energy at this moment.
Elliot could not help but break into a smile as he gazed at his son. “What are you looking at? It’s crowded
here, isn’t it? Don’t be scared, they’re all Daddy’s friends.”
Then, Elliot carried his son over to meet his friends.
Mrs. Cooper smiled as she watched the scene. “Master Elliot looks like he’s turned a few years younger
carrying his child like that.”
“He also tums childish. It’s as if he’s the only one with a son. He probably also thinks that his son is the
cutest baby in the universe,” Avery said. Then, she grabbed the baby’s things from the car and headed
up to the room with Mrs. Cooper.
