Chapter 571 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.
âHave you dialed the wrong number, Doctor Sanford? Itâs been so, so long since you last contacted me and here I thought that you have completely forgotten about me! Hahaha!â
Chelseaâs smug laughter came from the speaker of the35 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 didnât listen.
Once she obtained the leverage against Elliot, she cast Chelsea asideee immediately.
âWhat are you laughing at, Chelsea?!â
âIâm laughing at you, of course! You are out of the game now.â Chelseaâs tone was cheerful. âI can destroy you as easily as squishing an ant right now, but thatâs beneath me and I donât want to get filth on my6f hands.â
âReally?â Zoe mumbled, âand what have you gotten so far? Elliot belongs to Avery, not you!â
âHahaha! Elliot doesnât belong to me, but the person next to him right now is not you nor Avery,â
Chelsea drawled, âitâs me. Itâs 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 like68 this!â
âOh? Why donât you predict whatâs going to happen to Avery in the future, then?â Zoe asked sincerely.
âHahaha! She will end up just like you! Donât you think that itâs going to make a difference just because she has a few kids!â Chelsea was certain of her victory. âElliot will never settle down for anyone and I am the only one who can give him the freedom heza wants.â
After the call, Zoeâs 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.
âAvery, you are finally back! Are you home now? Iâll 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,â Tammy said in excitement.
âIâve already recovered,â Avery relaxed on the couch and said, âI havenât even told Mike that Iâm back yet! You are the first one I thought of telling.â
âWow, Iâm so touched by that! I am heading over right now! Thereâs a piece of gossip I need to tell you in person! Wait for me!â Tammy said, before hanging up.
Half an hour later, Tammy arrived with a big pile of gifts in her hands.
âWhy do you always have to bring so many things over, Tammy? Donât you get tired?â Avery sighed.
âHave you forgotten that my family runs supermarkets?â Tammy set the gifts down and held Averyâs hands to scan her up and down. âYou lost weight! Is the baby okay? I was so worried about you and the baby.â
âEverything is fine with us.â Avery beamed at her and changed the subject by asking, âyou told me that thereâs a piece of gossip you want to share with me, whatâs that about?â
A troubled expression appeared on Tammyâs face. âIâm worried that you will get upset if I tell you thisâ¦
but I canât bear not being able to talk about it either.â
âThen spill! I wonât get upset,â Avery promised, âI have really high tolerance now after the close-death experience.â
âItâs about that jerk Elliot! He is messing around with Chelsea again.â Tammy snorted and continued, âold habits die hard, I guess!â
The smile on Averyâs face froze.
âDonât get upset, Avery! Itâs not worth it for that jerk!â 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.
