A while later, the car stopped outside a restaurant.
Avery went inside and walked directly into the VIP room.
"Eric, is this your day off?”
Eric had booked a private room in a restaurant near Avery's company and invited her to meal.
"Yeah, I am free this morning." Eric pulled the chair for her. "Thank gods you came back safely. I was so worried."
Avery sat down and before she could respond, her attention was caught by the card resting on the table. "What's this? Is this your bank card?"
Eric sat down next to her. "Yeah. Take it and pay Elliot back."
Without a moment of hesitation, Avery pushed the card back to him and said, "I don't want it, Eric. I might owe him money, but he is not forcing me to pay him back. I pay him back when I want to and I can just stop whenever I feel like it."
Eric pushed the card to her stubbornly and said, "now that you have broken up with him, it's best to pay him back as soon as possible! Avery, you saved my life and I can give you every penny that I earn."
His eyes glammed and every word he spoke was incredibly sincere. "I didn't resurface as an idol because I love my job, but because I want to be someone useful so that I can help you in times of need."
Tears welled in Avery's eyes at his words.
"Eric, I really can't accept your card. I am so happy that you are treating me a meal, but I can pay the money I owe Elliot back on my own. Have faith in me, okay?" Sensing that the atmosphere was slightly heavy, she forced a smile and said, "you look even more handsome after a while!"
"Don't change the subject." Eric shoved the card into her hands. "Just hold onto this for me and give it back when I get married."
Avery didn’t know how to reject such a request.
"The password is your birthday," he added.
"Why are you telling me the password?"
Chelsea was stunned for minutes when she saw the massive transaction, thinking,' why does Avery have so much money? She paid 155 million before XJQ? now 300 million... Does her business profit that much?!'
