"Give Master Elliot a call, Avery. Ask him to get someone to check it out," suggested Mrs. Cooper. "Why would Cole come to such a secluded place? I bet he's got something up his sleeve and wants to cause a scene tomorrow."
"Okay. I'll let him know when I see him later.”
"Listen, Avery. Henry might look like a good man, but he really isn't," Mrs. Cooper said as she held Robert with a stern expression on her face. "Don't think that Cole turned into a bad apple all by himself. He was influenced by his parents. His mother was a monster, but his father isn't that far off. Those who sleep in the same bed wouldn’t be that different, after all." Avery pondered this for a moment with furrowed brows, then said, "I vaguely remember how Cole tried to use me to get his hands on Elliot's inheritance back when he was in a vegetative state. I doubt he came up with such a despicable plan by himself!"
"That's right! Didn't Cole come to see Master Elliot after he woke up? Master Elliot threw a huge fit," Mrs. Cooper said as she revealed everything that had happened all of those years ago. "Don't you think Master Elliot knows what kind of people they are? He wouldn't be this heartless if Henry weren't that evil."
Avery was silent.
"We have to keep an eye out for the two of them tomorrow," said Mrs. Cooper, reminding her to tell Elliot that she had seen Cole.
"I agree. I'll talk to Elliot after this."
Once the car approached the resort, Avery immediately saw Elliot.
He was chatting with some friends outside while he waited for her and Robert.
When he saw the car approaching, he immediately walked toward them.
Once the driver brought the car to a halt, Avery opened the door and got out.
"Elliot," Avery said when she stood in front of him. "Send someone outside to check things out. I saw Cole just now."
Elliot raised his brows and asked, "Are you certain?"
"Mrs. Cooper saw him too. He was speaking to a stranger by the street. I have a feeling he showed up tonight because of some scheme he has planned." Avery did
not want them to affect the wedding the next day.
"Don't worry. I'll send someone to check it out," said Elliot, placating her. "Even if they're scheming something, they won't be able to get into the resort to mess anything up."
