Elliot and Avery novel Chapter 143

Chapter 143

Avery did not want to see Elliot at all.

The Rolls-Roice she saw at the school that morning was not the same one from four years ago.

He would not be driving the same car for four years, after all.

However, the driver was the same one as before.

What was Elliot doing at a special needs school?

Could it be that he was an investor at the academy?

Even so, it was unlikely that he would bother to check in on the school’s operations.

After all, the Sterling Group alone was enough to keep him busy.

Chad noticed Elliot’s somber expression at lunch, so he tried to cheer him up.

“Sir, Professor Hough might have a long list of students, but I’m sure we’ll be able to find who we’re looking for in no time.”

“Avery’s back,” Elliot stated.

His voice was bleak and dull.

It sounded completely void of emotion, but it also had a deep undercurrent that was rich with feeling Chad was stunned, then snapped back to reality and asked, “Did she contact you?” .

“No, but she will soon,” Elliot said, finally picking up his fork to eat. “She wants a divorce, but I told her lawyer to inform her that she’ll only get one if she meets me herself.”

“What if she doesn’t come to see you? It doesn’t look like the divorce has much of an impact on your lives after all.”

Elliot fired an icy glare at Chad, instantly shutting his assistant up.

Ben ordered a bottle of wine, then turned to Elliot and said, “How do you feel about her now? I’

•d hate her if I were you, but I have a feeling you don’t hate her at all. It actually looks like you kind of want to see her…”

When the wine arrived, Elliot poured himself a glass.

He took a sip of wine, then said, “I won’t go as far as to say I hate her, but there’s certainly no love left.”

If Elliot was still in love with Avery, he would have signed the divorce papers a long time ago and granted her freedom.
