Elliot and Avery novel Chapter 755

Chapter 755 

Why was Cole calling Avery?

Avery lay back down on the bed and answered the phone.

"My mother’s dead, Avery," Cole sobbed on the other end of the line.

Avery froze for a moment. This was very sudden.

"Your mother’s dead? How did she die?"

"Elliot Foster shot her," Cole choked. 

"He wanted to shoot me, but my mother took the bullet for me. I’m in so much pain right now, Avery. I don’t know who else to talk to…"

Avery sat up.Why did Elliot do that?

Shea got in trouble because of Robert. It had nothing to do with Cole!

Elliot would not kill someone for no reason. He was not that kind of person!

"Did your uncle do that because you did something horrible, Cole?" 

Avery pestered. "What did you do?!"

Cole had simply wanted to complain to Avery, but he did not expect her to be more emotional than he was.

"It’s true that I did something awful. I shouldn’t blame my uncle for wanting to kill me, but my mother was innocent!" Cole drew a sharp breath, then wiped the tears from his face. 

"My grandmother’s death was caused by Zoe Sanford and me… I was stupid! I thought that I would never have to work again for the rest of my life as long as I kissed up to Zoe!"

"You killed your grandmother but still won’t repent. How could you bring yourself to blame your uncle when your mother died because of you? If I were him, I would want you dead, too!" Avery gritted her teeth. 

"One can be incapable, but should still have a conscience!" Cole’s tears came to a halt.

"You don’t have to speak up for me, Avery, but you don’t need to give me this holier-than thou attitude when I’m at my lowest! My mother’s dead! I didn’t kill her! I might not have a conscience, but I would never kill my own mother!"

"What about your grandmother, then? Was she unkind to you?" Avery retorted.
