Avery had changed her itinerary.
She booked a flight to Ylore as soon as she saw Jed's email, and she was sitting on the plane at that moment.
Tears were streaming down her face as she sat there and looked at the scenery outside the window.
The flight attendant called out to her but she did not answer.
After a while, another flight attendant came over.
"Do you need anything, Miss Tate?" The flight attendant asked softly. "Are you feeling unwell? Or..."
Avery wiped away her tears and looked at the blanket in the flight attendant’s hand." I'm feeling a little cold. I'll be fine with that blanket." "Okay. Do you need some warm water?" The flight attendant asked while handing her the blanket.
She noticed another flight attendant holding a glass of water, so she decided to just tell them, "Thanks."
The flight attendant immediately handed her the warm water.
"The plane will land in another four hours, Miss Tate. If you have any questions during this period, you may call us at any time."
"Thanks."
She drank the warm water, covered herself with the blanket, and closed her eyes.
She wanted to force herself to stop thinking or crying, but not a second passed by that she could rid her thoughts of all those little bits and pieces she went through in Ylore.
If there was anyone to blame, it was her.
She knew that she did not take any contraception when she slept with Elliot at the time, but she decided to rely on a stroke of luck instead of taking the morning-after pill. That was what resulted in the unexpected pregnancy.
That child was probably the reason Jed was killed.
