Although they fought terribly on the surface, Avery had huge confidence.
"What do you plan to do next? He has a wife now, after all. Wouldn't it be awkward for you to look for him?" Jed asked.
"I don’t need to feel awkward. If it wasn't for Gary, Elliot and I would have long reconciled.” Avery took a sip of water." Have you ever seen someone who just finished surgery and immediately registered for marriage?"
"Hmm, but why does Elliot obey Gary so much?" Jed did not understand. "You said that Gary is not a good person, doesn’t Elliot know this?"
Avery was silent for a while before explaining, "This is complicated. Gary
helped him a long time ago. A good person and a bad person are not just purely defined by law. Sometimes, even if we think a person is bad, that person might be good to others."
"I understand. Elliot won't be in danger being with Gary."
"No." Avery received quite a lot of information from Nick that day. "Gary is a dangerous man. If Elliot stays with him, even if he doesn't do anything to Elliot, his opponents and enemies will."
Jed completely understood what Avery meant. Elliot had entered a dangerous circle. Avery wanted to get him out of it.
It was not only to get Elliot to break up with Ruby and return to her. It was also for his future.
At Gould Mansion, Gary invited Elliot and
Ruby for dinner.
