Elliot and Avery novel Chapter 285

Chapter 285 

Avery slammed the door and locked it from within.

Mike saw that the argument had ended. He immediately took Shea out of the children’s room.

“Hey! Foster!” Mike had initially wanted to stand up for Avery.

Elliot glared at him warningly, “Shut up!” 

Mike held his tongue. He saw Elliot walking over to Shea and taking her away.

It was drizzling when they exited the villa. Elliot took off his jacket and draped it over Shea’s head.

When they entered the car, Shea was hugging his jacket. She looked at the villa.

Elliot put on the safety belt for her and said hoarsely, “Shea, stop looking.”

“Big Brother, I‘m sorry...” Shea said. Tears streamed down her face. 

“Shea, you did nothing wrong. You don‘t have to apologize to anyone.” Elliot raised his hands and wiped the tears away from the corner of her eyes.

Shea cried, “Big Brother, it was me. I was afraid of the surgery, so I ran away. I was the one who begged Hayden to take me away...” 

She had not dared to tell him the truth earlier on, however, at that moment, she had finally found the courage to tell the truth. 

Elliot’s mind was suddenly filled with Avery‘s cold gaze. Why did she not explain herself? Could it be that she felt pleasure by infuriating him? 

“Big Brother, don‘t blame Avery. She treats me well. I was feeling terrible when I was sick. She was the one who cared for me.” Shea choked. She remembered the scene from that night.” She gave me an injection. Avery is amazing...” 

Elliot took a tissue to wipe her tears away. He swallowed. “You got Hayden to take you back to his place, then you got sick. Avery treated you. What happened then? Was she the one who sent you to the hospital?”
