Avery finished her breakfast and stepped out of the restaurant, only to run directly into Elliot.
He was wearing the light gray casual wear she bought for him and a black face mask, showing only his eagle-like eyes.
He was alone, so there was no doubt that he had come looking for her. At that very moment, she was overwhelmed by emotions. She felt both touched and scared at the same time.
Henry and Cole were standing right behind Avery, and as they followed the direction of her gaze, they saw Elliot.
Though Elliot was not in official attire and was wearing a mask, they still recognized him right away.
Cole reacted swiftly and dragged his father along as he ran towards the car.
Avery strode towards Elliot, but he continued to stare at Cole and Henry coldly.
'Why are they here? Why was Avery meeting with them? What did they talk about?' He could barely remain calm and started walking towards Henry before Avery could reach him.
"Elliot!" Avery hurried over to stop him. " Don't be reckless! Listen to me!"
At almost the same moment when she managed to grab his arm, Cole and Henry had gotten into the car. Without any delay, Cole stepped on the accelerator and the car took off.
Elliot watched as they left, before immediately turning his attention to Avery. He swallowed hard and said, "Go on." "They came because of Adrian." She looked into his cold, brooding eyes and said," Adrian is having a severe headache and they had taken him to the hospital, but it didn't help; that's why they decided to come to me instead."
