Elliot and Avery novel Chapter 313

Chapter 313 “Didn’t we agree to stop being upset with Shea?” Layla asked dejectedly.

Hayden took his sister’s hand and walked back into the classroom.

Shea’s surgery was going to happen no matter what.

Coming to see them in her nervousness and fear would not change a thing.

She should have gone to see Elliot Foster and seek his comfort.

Elliot received a call from Mrs. Scarlet at three in the afternoon.

“Shea’s missing again!” cried Mrs. Scarlet. “The bodyguard and I have been looking for her for over an hour. We’ve searched through the entire Starry River neighborhood and we still can ‘t find her!”

“Why did you go to Starry River?!” Elliot exclaimed as he picked up his keys and walked toward the front door.

“Shea’s been begging to see Hayden since she got to school this morning… She threw a tantrum when I told her she couldn’t. She refused to eat or drink anything. She never used to be like this. I had no other choice but to take her to see Hayden,” Mrs. Scarlet said as she sobbed pitifully.

Ever since she had regained her self-perception after the surgery, Shea had become a pain to look after!

“So you took her to see Hayden Tate?” Merely hearing the name felt like a stab to Elliot’s heart. “Did he hide her away again?” “He didn’t! When I took Shea to see Hayden and Layla at school, they went back into the classroom after only exchanging a few words,” Mrs. Scarlet said truthfully. “Shea insisted on going to the neighborhood after we left the school, so I took her there… She just disappeared in the blink of an eye!”

Mrs. Scarlet was out of breath from all her sobbing.

Elliot frowned, then said, “Don’t cry. I’m on my way! She should still be in the neighborhood.”

Mrs. Scarlet sniffled and said, “Shea’s a good girl. She’s only hiding because she’s afraid of getting surgery.”

“I know,” Elliot said.

It took him a long time to coax Shea into going to bed last night.

He did not want her to suffer, but the surgery had to be done for the sake of her health.

He did not want her to be called an idiot ever again.
