Avery quickly walked to the gate. Seeing Elliot's weary and sleep-deprived face, she furrowed her brows.
"Elliot, what on earth is wrong with you? It's only six. The sun isn't even up yet..." Avery felt a little lightheaded. She felt as if she had run out of breath.
"Open the gate." Elliot looked at the locked gate.
"Tell me why are you here first." Avery looked at his reddened eyes. She suddenly thought about Layla's call the night before.
At that thought, before he could answer, she opened the gate and let him in.
"Do you know why I'm here?" He looked at the opened gate. He took a jab at Avery. "
Avery, don't you feel guilty?" "Guilty of what? I have never committed any crimes or betrayed my loved ones." Avery was so furious she was trembling. She strode inside.
Elliot followed her and entered as well.
"Miss Tate, since you’re up, I'll go get you some breakfast?" The bodyguard could sense the oppressing aura around them. " What do you want to eat?"
It was too early at that moment. Avery did not have an appetite. "I don’t want anything. You go get some for yourself!"
The bodyguard responded and was about to head out.
"Get me a bowl of granola, a croissant, and a cappuccino. If there are bacon pancakes, get them for me too," Elliot said.
The bodyguard was stunned. Did Elliot eat that much for breakfast every day?
Avery was stunned too. "If you want breakfast, go get it yourself. Why are you ordering my bodyguard to do it?"
After she said that, Elliot immediately took cash out from his wallet and passed it to the bodyguard. "Thank you."
