"I never said that your cousin told me about this!" Avery would not sell Leah out. "If I dare to stop you here, that meant I have received solid news. Natalie, you were trying to kill Elliot and I to make Tate Industries your own! It was a great plan, but sadly, I'm not dead!"
"If it wasn't my cousin who told you, where did you get your news from? Avery, since you have proof, show us! If you can prove that it was me, I'll let you do anything to me! If you don't have proof, ordering your bodyguards to grab me is against the law!"
Natalie shouted as loudly as she could to emphasize how the law was on her side.
Avery heard how arrogant she sounded and completely lost it!
At the thought of how much she and Elliot had suffered in Ylore, and how Elliot was nowhere to be found while all she could do was wonder whether he was suffering or not, and how the mastermind was standing before her yet she was powerless to do anything made her lose it. She could no longer remain calm!
"So, what if it's against the law? Didn't you do illegal things too? If you're not afraid of it, why should I be afraid?" Avery choked Natalie with one hand. She choked her hard without any control of her strength!
Natalie's face instantly turned red. Her breathing was quicker too!
Mike saw many people fishing out their phones to secretly record this scene. He was afraid that it would be hard to deal with this matter if things got big.
They had no proof. If Avery were to really choke Natalie to death in public, it would surely cause controversy and a lawsuit. It was not worth it at all.
Even if they wanted Natalie dead, they could go back and plan it properly.
"Avery, let her go first. If you really want to kill her, you shouldn't do it yourself," Mike said lowly in Avery's ears. "Aren't you afraid you'll get your hands dirty?"
"Where is Elliot? Are you going to tell me or not?" Avery ignored Mike's words. She looked at Natalie with reddened eyes. She did not appear to care for her surroundings. "If you're not going to speak, you don't have to at all. I'll send you right to hell now!"
"Avery, how dare you! I am... I am Dean Jennings' daughter..." Natalie's h;b&;YNU?s gripped Avery's hands that were wrapped around her neck. She tried to pry her hand off. However, Avery's hand was solidly attached to her neck. Natalie could not get rid of her no matter how she tried.
