He wanted to vent his anger, but he was not sure how he was going to go about doing that.
"What have I done? I should have never let her move in here! Now it's difficult to send her away!" he thought.
Back in Starry River Villa, Avery was struggling to fall asleep.
After Elliot had fallen asleep, she unlocked her phone and sent a message to Wesley enquiring about Shea.
[She probably wouldn't last that long. She’s made it long enough, though. I've traveled to many countries in the past year, looking for a compatible kidney, but I've yet to come across one.]
Tears welled up in Avery's eyes as she stared at Wesley's message.
The two had struggled in silence for a long time, and they still had nothing to show for it. "Even if they continued looking, would the gods show them mercy?" thought Avery.
Avery instinctively knew that Adrian's kidney had a high possibility of being compatible with Shea’s body because they were twins that shared the same blood, so this was Shea’s last hope.
Henry only wanted money, and Avery was willing to pay it if it meant she could save Shea's life. Therefore, she decided to meet with Henry again the next day.
The next morning, she returned to the living room after sending Layla to the car and said to Mrs. Cooper, "I'm going out. If Elliot wakes up and asks for me, just tell him that I'm out grocery shopping." "Oh, alright." Mrs. Cooper said, before asking, "And are you really going grocery shopping?"
"Yeah. My period is around the corner so I need to buy some sanitary products."
With that, she headed out, and Mrs. Cooper did not suspect anything because Avery did not bring her handbag.
Avery met with Henry and Cole in the same restaurant they had met in the last time. When the two saw the exhaustion on her face, they both became extremely smug, thinking that she had admitted defeat.
