When Avery heard his questioning, she had a wave of emotions.
"What did your girlfriend say to you?" she asked.
Elliot halted. He had not visited Zoe.
After listening to the recording, he got triggered and so he called her first.
"Avery, I'm asking you! Don't change the topic!" His tone was more serious this time.
When Avery heard him yell, she began fuming, "Isn't it obvious? I burned your girlfriend's hand with boiling water! Tell her to stay away from me, if not, I will burn her face!" 2
Elliot was speechless.
Avery, "Why're you not speaking? Are you not trying to speak up for your girlfriend?"
Elliot gulped and gritted his teeth.
"If Miss Sanford's hands are damaged, who will operate on your Shea? Sigh, I'm suddenly so worried. Elliot Foster, will you take revenge on me?" Avery continued.
"Avery Tate, even a fool knows you didn't mean that! Even so, I do get angry listening to what you say!" Elliot responded to her triggering words. 1
"Then stop calling me! You called on behalf of her, did you think I would cry to you saying I didn't do it and then ask for your forgiveness? This is more absurd than a dream!" Avery refuted coldly. There was a knock on the office door.
Avery held on to her phone as she called out to her door, "Come in!"
Her assistant came in, not knowing that she was on her phone, "Miss Tate, a man named Cole Foster claimed to be your friend. He would like to meet you."
Avery said to her phone, "Your nephew is here, I'm not talking to you anymore!"
After hanging up, Avery walked to the washroom.
Five minutes later, Cole was brought to Avery's office by her assistant.
Avery had already calmed herself down.
