Elliot and Avery novel Chapter 288

Chapter 288 Avery continued to flip through the magazine. She did not react. Her magazine was suddenly taken away.

“Won‘t you feel uncomfortable staying here?” Tammy pulled her up from the sofa “How unlucky! Meeting annoying people while out shopping.” 

Tammy intentionally said it out loud so Zoe could hear. 

Avery said, “The shop is here, and anyone can enter.”

“Which is why I said we’re unlucky! I‘m not shopping here anymore! Let’s leave.” Tammy tugged Avery‘s hand. She wanted to pull her away. 

Avery said, “Why are you such a coward?”

Tammy was stunned by this statement. Yes! Why was she being a coward? She was not afraid of Zoe, why did she have to leave? 

Tammy randomly took a few pieces of clothing and headed to the cashier, pulling Avery along.

“What‘s so great about swiping another person‘s card that you have to boast about it? It‘s like they’re not afraid to let people know that they rely on others.” Tammy mocked Zoe with a smile and said, “True power is the ability to spend one‘s own money!” 

Although Tammy did not directly mention Zoe‘s name, Zoe smiled and turned around when she heard what Tammy had said. 

“My, isn‘t it Miss Sanford?” Tammy pretended to be stunned and exaggerated her reaction,” Miss Sanford, you‘re here shopping? Why is your boyfriend not with you? I heard that you and your boyfriend have gotten closer recently. Could all of that have been a ruse? If not why, why did he only give you his card? Everyone has a card, Miss Sanford.” 

Zoe’s expressions darkened to the shade of her black card. She knew that Tammy was the only daughter of the Lynchs, and they owned departmental stores all around the country. She was wealthy.

Zoe thought about Avery being the boss of the Tate Industries. She was wealthy too. 

Although Elliot had given her a card to use as she pleases, without Elliot, her wealth could not match that of Avery’s or Tammy’s.

The staff started packing the clothes Tammy had placed on the counter. 

Zoe‘s face tumed blue. Richard realized that Tammy was not a woman to be offended, so he pulled his daughter away.

Coming out of the shop, Zoe shrugged Richard’s hand away. “Dad! Why did you pull me away? I‘m not afraid of them! It’s so embarrassing this way!”

Zoe took a deep breath and suppressed her indignations.
