Avery could not help but chuckle.
[You would have still accepted Ben's proposal even if Elliot hadn't said a word to you!]
[Probably not this soon though. I enjoy being pursued. What happens if he puts less effort into our relationship once I agree to marry him?]
[Hahaha . ]
[The way you laugh is really unsettling, Avery.]
[Life wouldn't always be thrilling. Peace and stability are the best things that you can ask for. Just think about how other married couples fight. Isn't that more terrifying?] [True. I just want to continue working even after I marry him. Otherwise, I would lose my mind from staying at home every single day and start picking fights with him]
[Just enjoy the moment and don't overthink it.]
[Yeah!]
Elliot was on his way to Avery’s house when he received a call from Natalie. He put on his bluetooth earphones and answered the call.
"Elliot, I heard that Avery is dating the owner of Dream Maker, is that true?" Natalie asked.
"Why are you asking?"
Natalie hesitated for a moment and said,"
The friend I told you about doesn't exist."
Elliot scowled. "Do you know what you are talking about, Natalie?"
"Of course, I do. Where are you right now? Let's meet and talk!" Natalie knew she had made a fool of herself, but someone might use what happened against her even if she kept quiet about it. If that was the case, she decided it was best to face the situation with honesty.
