Avery felt suffocated as if someone was strangling her. It had never crossed her mind that her two children would go to the hospital to look for her. Moreover, she did not expect Elizabeth Hospital to give out the security footage when they had promised her they would not do so.
Elliot had always been a suspicious person. Avery knew Elliot would investigate the person who brought Shea to the hospital. However, there was one thing that he would not have known. Shea was brought to the hospital the day before yesterday instead of yesterday. Hence, no matter how much of yesterday's security footage Elliot watched, he would not see that Avery was the one who brought Shea to the hospital.
"Elliot, we're divorced. It's none of your business whether or not I was at Elizabeth Hospital yesterday or however many children I was carrying or holding," said Avery with a stern voice after calming herself down.
"They are not your children. I could never have a child with you. Don't you remember you were the one who killed our child?" Avery continued to speak emotionally. 1
After that, Avery immediately hung up the phone. She did not want to hear any response from Elliot. She hoped that Elliot and Shea would stay together
happily ever after and not try to hurt other people ever again.
When Elliot wanted to respond, the phone was already hung up. He had no chance to say the things on his mind. His mind went blank as he listened to the disconnect tone. It seemed like Avery would never forget the pain of losing their child when he forced her to have an abortion.
It was just that Avery had never mentioned it anymore. Hence, Elliot had also forgotten that they once had a child. The huge mansion was so quiet that his heartbeat could be heard clearly.
Elliot asked himself in his heart, did he regret it? After hesitating for a few seconds, the answer emerged in his mind. It was the same answer he had before.
"Master Elliot, Doctor Sanford is here," said Mrs. Cooper when she stood beside Elliot.
Elliot reverted to his calm self instantly. He strode toward the living room.
Zoe was in a good mood today. She wore a long bright-colored dress. She had light makeup on her face while letting her hair down. It was a different look from her previous capable and professional image.
Elliot had reached the living room and was stunned for a moment when he saw Zoe.
