"How did you get Nick to help you?"
"I have my ways." Avery sat down next to him and said aggrievedly, "Elliot, I cannot let you forget me. My entire youth has to do with you. Our past can't be wiped away just like that. I won't back off just because you want to start a new life."
Elliot clenched his fists tightly. He did not know what to say.
She was not afraid of his threats. He could not possibly hit her. Even if he wanted to do it, they were not at the right place.
"Do you really not have feelings for me anymore?" She held his huge palms. "Turn around and look at me." "Lame," Elliot mocked. "I know that you are great at hiding your emotions, but I don't believe that you have completely forgotten about me." She used all her might to hold his hand tightly with one hand while hooking her other arm around his neck, planting a kiss on his lips.
The familiar scent roused all the emotions in her. Thinking about how he was another woman's husband and how cold he was to her, her tears fell uncontrollably.
The hot tears wet Elliot's face.
He pushed her away with force and glared at her in detest. "Avery! Was this how you controlled me in the past, with such cheap tactics?"
"Yes!” Avery pursed her lips. She said, "Do you want to try it again? See if you'll be controlled by me!"
Elliot was provoked by her words, but he could not kill her.
In the end, he took his anger out on the notebook. He threw it in the bin! Then, he got up and was prepared to leave.
"Elliot, as expected, you have forgotten about me!" She looked at his huge figure and said self-deprecatingly, "I thought that you were just lying to me. I never thought that it was real!"
Avery ignored her bodyguard's teasing.
She started thinking about how to look for Elliot the next day. He did not take the notebook. She could still use this reason to look for him the next day.
During dinner, she treated Jed to a meal at the hotel.
"I met with Vice President Miller today. He said that there is no way to regain the memories," Jed said with a smile, "But he said that the first monkey that had its memories erased had already regained its memories. Is this considered good news?"
"Hmm, yes. I tested Elliot today. I think he hasn't completely forgotten about me,” Avery explained her theory, "He hates it when other people touch him, but when I kissed him today, he did not push me away immediately. Whether he remembers me or not, his body doesn't seem as resistant to me."
