Avery had thought it through.
Back then, Shea sacrificed her life to save Robert. Her love for Robert came from her love for Elliot.
Her love for Elliot was no less than Avery’s love for Elliot.
If Shea was conscious at that moment, she would not be willing to let Elliot be threatened by Henry and Cole.
After lunch, Avery held Elliot's hands and led him out of the restaurant.
"Elliot, let's take a walk!"
"Hmm. What do you usually do when you go shopping with Tammy?" Elliot asked curiously.
Avery often shopped with Tammy until the evening before returning home.
"Sometimes, she gets her hair done, or a manicure. It takes time. Other than that, we would be either shopping or eating.
Tammy loves buying handbags. She has a few rooms at home just to store them."
Elliot said, "Compared to Tammy, you seem as if you don’t have many desires."
"I do have desires. I keep you close to me, isn't that a big enough desire?"
Elliot felt great about that. He held her hand. "Let's go get you some handbags."
"I don't like them."
"Then, what do you like?"
"I like you!" Avery said, catching Elliot off guard. His expressions were rather unnatural.
[Avery: He said that he would give me all his money.]
[Tammy: Oh, then get him to give you all his money. Once he gives you all his money, I'll believe that he truly loves you.]
[Avery: Anyway, I believe him.]
[Tammy: Something is wrong. You don't like money that much, why are you using money to gauge his love for you?]
[Avery: I like money. I just won't be tempted by it.]
After sending the message, Avery felt a little disappointed. If her company was worth a little more in stocks, perhaps Cole < b-;TKQ< Henry would agree to her request.
In the end, this was about money.
Avery found Wesley's number and sent him a message, [Wesley, I'm sorry. I can't find Adrian. I might not be able to help Shea anymore.]
