Elliot and Avery novel Chapter 177

Chapter 177 It was the best way to avoid Zoe asking for other types of repayment. Giving a large sum of money was the best solution.

Zoe was shocked, “Mr. Foster, please don’t. Shea’s condition needs more than one surgery. You should know that even though her intelligence has improved, it has only improved a little. After she recovers from this operation, if you want to continue giving her the treatment, there may be a second, third, or more operations in the future.”

As Elliot listened to Zoe’s explanation, he kept silent. Zoe was here on her annual leave. She might not have so much time in the future.

“Doctor Sanford, what’s your future plan for your career?” Elliot asked.

Without a doubt, Elliot would want to continue the treatment for Shea. If her IQ could allow her to take care of herself, that would be the best.

Zoe understood why Elliot asked such a question. He wanted to continue treating Shea but Zoe might not have the time to stay in Avonsville in the future.

Zoe answered, “Mr. Foster. To be honest, I am at a stage where I feel lost. I am 34 this year but I haven’t had a relationship, ever. My family is extremely anxious about this. So my career is not the most important factor at the moment.”

As if Zoe had not expressed herself directly, she wanted to be blunt and said to Elliot that he would just need to marry her to repay her or for her to continue treating Zoe.

Elliot frowned.

“Miss Sanford, I can introduce a boyfriend to you,” said Elliot after he hesitated for a moment.

Zoe felt a little disappointed. However, she said with a face, “I didn’t expect you to say such things.”

“Because I need you to continue treating Zoe,” Elliot said frankly, “I will never get married again in my life.”

Zoe looked at Elliot’s handsome face and was attracted by it.

“Mr. Foster, I don’t necessarily need to be married to someone. I think hardly any women who have been in contact with you could easily fall for other men. Why don’t we be together as a couple? Then my family won’t bother me anymore and I can concentrate on studying Shea’s case.” Zoe suggested.

Zoe had discovered Elliot’s weakness and that was Shea’s illness. She wondered since Elliot would spend such a huge amount of money to cure Shea, it was not too much to ask to be Elliot ‘s girlfriend.
