Elliot's question made Avery furrow her brows.
What was he talking about? He was asking her about what happened between her and his mother?
That was strange! Why did he not just ask his mother?
Even stranger was the fact that Rosalie had not told him her findings? More than an hour had passed, why has she not told him yet?
Avery picked up her glass of water and took a sip. She forced herself to calm down.
"Why don't you ask your mother this question?" As Avery said that she started to suspect something was going on.
Something must have happened which was why Rosalie had not told Elliot the truth.
"My mother is dead." Elliot's breath was heavy. He said bitterly, "You are the last person she spoke to before her death. I want to know what the two of you were talking about."
Avery's hand which held the glass swayed! She felt dizzy and quickly put down the glass.
She muttered, "Your mother has passed away? What happened?"
"Answer my question! What did the two of you talk about!" Elliot was losing patience! He initially thought that his mother's death was an accident. However, at that moment, he started to suspect that there was something more to it.
His mother had lived in that building for most of her life. How could she have suddenly fallen? Had she been agitated before the fall?
Her last call was to Avery. This was too suspicious! They had not been in contact all this time, and then they were on call for five whole minutes?
Avery's face flushed red at his questions.
She was indeed afraid that Rosalie would tell him the truth, but she had never expected Rosalie to die!
Rosalie's death had nothing to do with her, but the tone of his voice told her that he suspected her!
Avery's heart turned cold! All the doubts and suspicions could spoil a person's relationship!
