Elliot and Avery novel Chapter 734

Elliot’s words left a deep impression on Avery’s heart. He thought that Robert’s sickness was life’s punishment for him.

As a doctor, Avery could not agree.

Robert’s illness was due to both the premature birth and the fact that his body was weak.

Her entire pregnancy was a rollercoaster ride. She was sick multiple times and had to take all kinds of drugs. She was also partially responsible for Robert’s condition.

“I’ll try to rush back in the next two hours, Avery.”

Elliot decided to book an entire plane once he arrived at the airport.

“Drive safe,” Avery croaked.

“I will. The signal here is pretty bad. I’m hanging up.”

“Okay.”

Perhaps neither of them realized that, before Robert was born, they had fought over the matter with Chelsea, and broke things off completely.

Now, all Avery wanted was for Robert’s condition to quickly stabilize. Nothing else was more important than that.

Moments later, Chad arrived with dinner for her.

“Eat something, Avery!” he said. “The police found some preliminary clues on the headstone.”

Avery raised her brows and asked, “The police know about that?”

“Yes. Mr. Foster asked the police to search the headstone for fingerprints to see where it’s been.” Chad handed her a glass of water, then continued, “The police found that the headstone was made in a family-run workshop on the outskirts of town. The owner is over fifty years old and his son is crippled. His father is also very old. He’s usually the one making the headstones while his wife takes care of his father and their son. There are no surveillance cameras there. They heard from the owner that the person who ordered the headstone was a man in his thirties who was dressed in relatively casual clothes. He paid in cash and didn’t leave any personal information.”

‘‘I see. I figured that they wouldn’t dare leave information behind. People like that would only do evil things like this in secret.”

“The police have started surveilling the area according to the description that the owner gave, “Chad said. “Let’s hope we can find who was behind it! Otherwise, none of us would be able to let this go.’
