Chapter 353
Mike told his brilliant idea to Chad.
Chad said, “Mr. Foster will not be threatened. Shea’s nanny and bodyguard will always follow her. Taking her to Avery’s house is just a change of living accommodations.”
Mike was baffled.
Chad continued, “Mr. Foster will not harm Avery. I can guarantee you that.”
Mike said, “How are you going to guarantee that?”
“If you don’t believe me, fine! I’m at the hospital seeing Zoe now. She has not come around yet.”
Mike’s anxiety lessened slightly. “What’s going on with her now?”
“She has been unconscious since the blood transfusion.”
“Oh, Avery said that she did not push Zoe. What do you think Zoe is thinking?” Mike wondered. “Is the child in her not Elliot’s?”
“Of course, you’re siding with Avery. It’s hard to say what the truth is,” Chad said objectively.
Mike chuckled. “I think the child in her is not Elliot’s. If the child was Elliot’s, she would have fought with all her might. She would not have fallen with a single push. You should get Elliot to do a paternity test.”
“No can do. Zoe’s father took the child away at the hospital.”
“Hahaha!”
“Stop laughing. Zoe’s life is still hanging by the thread. No matter who the child belongs to, it doesn’t matter,” Chad said. “After all, the child is dead.”
“What do you mean it doesn’t matter? Avery is being wrongfully blamed!” Mike said angrily.
“Don’t be such a pessimist. Mr. Foster never wanted the child. Now that the child is gone, perhaps he might even thank Avery!” Chad said. “Avery is not home right now, aren’t you going to look after the kids?”
“We hired a bodyguard.”
“Oh, then you just wait at Mr. Foster’s place then! I’ve already contacted everyone. No one knows where he is either.”
Mike furrowed his brows in worry.
“By the way, I heard a piece of news today.” Before Chad hung up, he suddenly remembered something. “Wanda sold off her cosmetics company. The one abroad. She cashed it for four
hundred and fifty million. It looks like she is preparing to return to the country.”
“Oh, that witch! Once she returns, I’ll make sure her life is hell!”
“Don’t underestimate her. Wanda is business savvy. If she has decided to return, she must have a plan. You have to remind Avery to be careful,” Chad said, then he switched topics. “I think you should still go back home! It’s pointless for you to wait at Mr. Foster’s place.”
“You only know how to protect your boss!” Mike said in annoyance and hung up.
Avery was at the hotel, and she thought that she was going to die.
What was worse than hunger was how rough Elliot was with her. He seemed to have an
abundance of energy when it came to torturing her.
At two in the morning, there was a knock on the door. Elliot stopped what he was doing. Avery pulled the covers over her body.
Elliot put on a robe and walked to the door.
“Mr. Foster, Miss Sanford has come around. She’s asking to see you,” the bodyguard said.
Elliot turned around and looked at the messy bed. “All of you stay here. Don’t let her escape.”
“Yes, sir!”
Avery’s eyes reddened. She was completely infuriated. He had already spent the night with her! Why not let her go?
“Elliot! What makes you think you can keep me here?!” She wrapped the sheets around herself, dragged her sore body out of bed, and shouted at Elliot.
Elliot walked over to her, picked her up, and placed her back on the bed.
His unique scent wafted across her. “I’ll let you go after twenty-four hours. What if you take contraceptives? Then, all my efforts tonight will go to waste?”
