Avery would not hand over what her father had left to her to anyone.
She refused to let anybody take it from her.
Her words were harsh, but not only was Elliot not scared, but he also found it hilarious.
"What are you smiling at?" Avery asked when she saw his smile.
"You," he mocked. "You're self-righteous, arrogant, and you're digging your own grave." 1
Avery could force herself to accept the first two, but what did he mean by her digging her own grave?
"Get back to your room! Just looking at you gives me a headache."
Elliot's face suddenly darkened, and his voice was low and deep.
"I didn't do anything. You must have a headache because you're sick," Avery said indifferently. "Don't you have a family doctor? Should I call him?"
"F*ck off!" Elliot growled through gritted teeth.
Avery returned to her room in a terrible mood.
She shut her laptop, walked over to the bed, and lay down. 1
She had fallen out of love with Cole a long time ago.
If it were not for Cassandra's phone call, she would have never thought about them nor would she have felt any of the emotions that she was now experiencing, i
The thought of Cole being a gambler and being in danger gave her a strange and complicated feeling.
All of her memories with him were ruined, and she even felt a little disgusted. 1
It was as if she was in some weird TV show where she was never truly in touch with reality, and she was living a lie. 1
In the midst of her jumbled thoughts, she fell asleep.
A car pulled up at the Foster mansion at 2 a.m. that night. 1
Mrs. Cooper was awakened by the bodyguard who was on night duty.
She rushed into the living room to see Rosalie's furious face.
