Chapter 655

Which meant that she could go into delivery at any moment; however, what had happened was a rope

around the baby’s neck that could potentially kill it.

If Avery was living such a messy private life, it can’t be certain if Elliot would still want the child.

Chad stood before the office door, unable to summon the courage to step in, as he couldn’t bear to

witness Elliot’s reaction.

On his way to find Ben, he spotted Ben stepping out of the elevator.

“Ben, have you seen the news? “ Chad asked awkwardly, “the news about Avery.”

“What do you think?” Ben scowled furiously.

“I found out a week ago! Why else would I be that angry?”

Chad was taken by surprise.

“How did you find out, Ben?”

“Why don’t you go ask Mike? Considering how close he is to Avery, he must have known everything!”

Chad felt slightly dazed. Every time Mike mentioned Avery to him, he would make it sound as though

Avery was a little girl that needed to be taken care of. Mike couldn’t lie, which meant that not even Mike

knew that Avery had been fooling around in private.

Chad returned to his own office and calledge Mike.

Mike picked up the phone immediately and blurted out, “I know what you are about to say. I saw the

video. F*ck it, that’s definitely not Avery! That woman’s moan was too lecherous! Avery couldn’t

possibly do that!”

“Have you heard her moaning before, and if so, how? Have you slept with her before?!” Chad

deadpanned.

“F*ck! What the f*ck do you think you are talking about? Do you have a death wish?” Enraged, Mike

desperately wished that he could throw a punch at Chad through the phone.

“Well, then what proof do you have that says that woman isn’t Avery? I watched the video and that

looked and sounded exactly like Avery,” Chad said in a tortured tone, “where is Avery? I want to hear it

from her.”

“She took Layla to Bridgedale this morning! They haven’t even landed yet!” Mike was breathing

heavily.

“That’s not Avery. I’m sure of it. Avery isn’t that kind of woman. I trust her and so should you!”

Chad massaged the bridge of his nose in despair.

“‘This isn’t something that can be resolved even if the two of us believe in her. The main issue is my

boss… He is going to find out about this soon. If he doesn’t believe Avery, then she’s done for!”

“What do you mean, done for? So what if that woman in the video was indeed, Avery? Avery isn’t

married to him, and he has no rights to get involved!” Mike said casually.

“But Avery is still pregnant with his child! Mr. Foster is definitely not going to let her go. Just tell her to

hide for a while in Bridgedale and don’t come back until after she gave birth!” Chad suggested

“What are you talking about? The woman in that video is not Avery!” Mike repeated the same sentence

over and over again.

Just then, Chad heard noises from the president’s office and hung up, before striding up to the office

and leaning against the door to listen.

Inside the office, Ben found the video and shoved his phone towards Elliot’s face to force him to watch

it.

“This is the woman that you have been treating like your treasure,” Ben sneered sarcastically and

gritted out, “I came across the scene where she was fooling around with this man a week ago in the

hotel. I heard with my own ears when she said that she went out looking for other men because you

can’t satisfy her in bed.”

Elliot froze as though someone had pressed on the ‘stop’ button; though his expression was calm,

darkness had filled his eyes.

After a long while, he swallowed hard and argued in a hoarse voice, “Avery wouldn’t betray me! That’s

not her!”

“Wake up already! That is her!” Ben shattered all hope for Elliot and said, “you can keep the baby she

is carrying, but do not ever touch that skank ever again!”
