Chapter 524
When His Eyes Opened
âWhy arenât you saying anything, Avery?â Tammy asked. âDo you think thereâs a possibility that Cole was
the father of the child Zoe was pregnant with before? After all, the chances of getting knocked up after
sleeping together once are really low! Besides, if Zoe would date a major sc*mbag like Cole, itâs enough
to prove that theyâre the same type of people!â
Avery felt an ache in her heart, then croaked, âIâm not sure if they really are dating or not⦠Iâm a little
tired now, Tammyâ¦â
âOkay. Hurry up and get some rest, then,â Tammy said.
Avery hung up the phone, then looked out the window into the night in a35 daze.
Tears fell silently down her face.
She had thought that Elliot and Zoe were just like other couples when they were together.
He had thought that the child Zoe was carrying was the result of their many nights of loving passion.
What a79 joke!
In the past, most of the loathing she felt toward Elliot was because of his relationship with Zoe.
She despised and resented him to the point that she wanted to kill him herself.
No matter what Elliot said, she did not want to hear a word of it.
No matter what he did, she wanted nothing but to be free from7a him!
Her eyes were clouded by jealousy and hatred, and she ended up seeing him as an enemy.
All the times she had regretted meeting him, the countless sleepless nights she had stayed up cursing
himâ¦
Now, the truth was like a hard slap in her face!
Avery felt like her heart was about to break in half.
Elliot was not the dirtbag that people made him out to be, neither was he a two-timing b*st* rd.
All the cruel words she had said to him and her actions that hurt him made her feel an
unbelievable shame!
After a good cry, Avery lay in bed and stared blankly at the ceiling.
Now that her emotions were intact, her thoughts were slowly getting clearer.
It was no wonder Zoe miscarried!
The child she was carrying was never Elliotâs to begin with, so she would not have dared to give birth to
it.
Her cruelty knew no bounds!
On the day she miscarried, she did not forget to plan an elaborate and entertaining actâ¦
At the thought of this, a chill ran through Averyâs entire body.
She and Elliot were hardly considered fools, but Zoe had duped them both!
This was all in the past, but the torment that she and Elliot suffered because of it was engraved into their
hearts!
Avery refused to let Zoe get away with this!
On Monday, Avery showed up at Tate Industries in a white dress.
An amethyst necklace was hanging from her neck.
The purple gemstone complemented her ivory skin and made her look exquisite.
âIs Miss Tate in a relationship? Sheâs dressed up so beautifully today!â
âHahaha! Sterling Groupâs big boss, Elliot Foster got here at eight in the morning. Did you notice the
amethyst necklace Miss Tateâs wearing? When I sent coffee over to Mr. Foster earlier, I saw that his
cufflinks today were made of amethyst, too!â
âOh my god! Are they going public with their relationship?!â
âHaha! Letâs hope they get together! That way, we wonât have to worry about Wonder Technologies
anymore!â
That morning, news of Wanda Tate donating drones to hundreds of schools in the countryâs rural areas
made the headlines.
Before long, Tate Industries and Sterling Group also made headlines with their donation of military
drones to the countryâs Border Security Force.
The internet blew up in fervent discussions at the two pieces of news.
(I think Wonder Technologies shouldâve donated something more practical to the schools! Those poor
kids barely have enough to eat. What would they do with a bunch of drones?]
[At least Wonder Technologies donated something! However, I think Tate Industries is even more
amazing! Working with the military is basically an official confirmation on the high quality of their
products!]
[Did any of you notice what the heads of Sterling Group and Tate Industries were wearing?]
[Whoa! Are those matching couple outfits?!]
[I didnât expect to see something this sweet while reading the newsâ¦]
That afternoon, lunch was on Avery and Mike.
