Chapter 535
What would Avery say to Elliot if she walked over to him?
She had to go to Bridgedale right now.
Her decision would not change whether he agreed with it or not.
Besides, she did not want to drag him into this35 mess.
She took a deep breath and continued walking…
There was a turn a few feete8 away.
Once she made that turn, he would not be able to see her.
“Avery79 Tate!”
Elliot’s blood boiled when he saw Avery continue walking away without turning back.
With reddened eyes, he charged toward the counter … The security guards immediately held him87 back.
“Avery! Turn around!” Elliot completely abandoned his pride in the bustling airport as he yelled, “Turn back! Look at me!”
Avery’s feet feltza heavy.
The short distance toward the corner in the hallway took every ounce of energy she had.
Once she was out of Elliot’s line of vision, she leaned back against the glass wall and sobbed.
“Make him leave, Mike!” Avery cried as she buried her face in her hands.
Mike frowned and said, “He won’t listen to me. You shouldn’t go to him the way you are right now, either. I’ll call Chad!”
After his call to Chad, Mike grabbed Avery’s hand and dragged her away.
When Chad arrived at the airport, he spotted Elliot amongst the crowd.
He was standing at the counter at Gate Four.
Avery’s flight had already taken off.
Elliot’s heart and soul had flown off along with her.
This was not the first time he was left behind.
Five years ago, Avery had left the same way. She did not waver no matter how much he begged her.
He did not expect the same thing to happen again five years later.
Although their separation this time did not mean the end of their relationship, he was hurt all the same.
He had run through several red lights to rush to the airport to see her, but she did not even turn back to look at him once.
How could she be this heartless?
Chad walked over to Elliot, then said softly, “It’s late, Sir. I’ll take you home/”
Upon hearing Chad’s voice, Elliot’s rigid body finally reacted.
His eyes were bottomless pits of darkness when he turned to Chad and asked, “Do you know why she left?”
Chad froze.
Mike had texted him earlier to tell him everything before he turned his phone off, but Chad did not have the courage to tell Elliot about it.
When Elliot saw the hesitation in Chad’s eyes, his heart immediately froze!
Even Chad knew the reason why Avery left, but she only refused to tell him.
The vein on Elliot’s forehead pulsed as he grabbed onto Chad’s collar and roared, “Don’t make me hit you!”
Chad could barely catch his breath from being choked.
“Wesley… Wesley is… In trouble…”
Elliot raised his brows, and the sharpness in his eyes slowly subsided.
He released his grip.
Chad rubbed his throat and lightly coughed a few times.
“Let’s get you home for now, Sir! There are no flights to Bridgedale left tonight. Besides… I’m sure Avery did not tell you about this because she did not want to get you involved.”
Elliot took a deep breath, then said through gritted teeth, “Why wouldn’t she want to involve me? Did something dangerous happen?”
“I’m not too sure on the details, but I’m sure it’s something serious if they both rushed off to Bridgedale like this,” Chad responded.
“She’s pregnant with my child… Now, she’s risking her life for another man… If she can throw her life away for that man, then what about my child’s life?! She refused to discuss this with me at all. She doesn’t feel an ounce of sympathy for me! What am I to her?!”
Elliot’s eyes filled with tears as he clenched his fists tightly.
