Avery, however, could not figure out why he would do that.
Since Henry and Cole would never be bold enough to look for him, could someone else have done so instead?
Avery looked at the chandelier in a daze as she lay on the bed.
All of a sudden, a terrible thought appeared in her mind.
How was she supposed to ask him for the shares if he remained unreachable and did not come home?
Although she felt that it was inappropriate to be thinking about such stuff at that time, it was undoubtedly a very desperate situation.
If she could not fulfill her promise to Henry in a week, Henry and Cole might torture Adrian!
Tears streamed down the corners of her eyes when she thought of that.
She thought she had already experienced despair two days ago, but that was nothing compared to what she was facing then!
What she was going through then was the epitome of despair!
Knowing Elliot's temper, he might continue to ignore her in the foreseeable future if she ignored him that day.
Even though they had children together and everyone was living at his place, no bargaining chip could hold him ransom the minute he decided to give up.
Avery had a sleepless night.
The next morning, she went to the Sterling Group.
When Chad came to the company, he saw her standing at the door of Elliot's office. He had long guessed that she would come to the company that day, so it came as no surprise for him.
However, he had to pretend to be surprised.
