Chapter 1005
“I don’t know if I’m drunk or not.” Elliot slender fingers rubbed his aching temples.
How he wished he was drunk! When he wake up, he don’t remember everything that happened tonight!
Avery said, “It seems that you are not too drunk. You lie down on the bed, and I will ask Mrs. Scarlet to cook you sober soup. You must drink the sober soup and then go to sleep.”
Elliot answered and put down the phone.
About half an hour later, Mrs. Scarlet came up with a bowl of sour plum soup.
Elliot was lying on the bed with his clothes closed, his eyes closed, only one bedside lamp was turned on in the room, and the light was relatively dim.
Mrs. Scarlet was not sure if he was asleep, so she stood at the door of the room.
At this moment, a deep voice came: “Come in.”
He settled down, opened his eyes, and sat up.
Mrs. Scarlet immediately brought the sour plum soup to him. His eyes inadvertently caught a glimpse of dark red blood on his palm.
“Sir, why is your hand hurt?” Mrs. Scarlet was taken aback.
“I’m fine.” Elliot took a sip of soup. His voice calm, but with a strong deterrent, “Don’t tell Avery everything.”
Mrs. Scarlet lowered her head: “Okay, I see. I’ll get off. If I’m worried about you, I’ll ask you directly.”
“I went to see Nathan tonight.” Elliot continued to drink the soup, but his voice was obviously tense, “Do you know what he said to me?”
Mrs. Scarlet’s face suddenly darkened, “No matter what he tells you, don’t believe him! He doesn’t have a word of truth in his mouth!”
