Chapter 137
“Happy New Year, Avery,” Elliot said as he lifted his hand to wipe the tears off of Avery’s face.
Avery took a big step back away from him.
“I’m leaving, Elliot,” she said coldly.
Before Elliot could react, Avery had already taken the diamond ring off her finger.
“I can’t accept this,” Avery said as she shoved the ring into the pocket of his jacket.
“I love you, but I can’t do this anymore.”
Avery lifted her head as tears trickled down her cheeks.
“You have photos of that woman on your computer and on your phone. I’m sure you have her in your heart, as well. I admit that you’re good to me, but you love her more. I won’t force you to explain yourself, nor will I make you give her up… Because I know that it would all be a waste of time,” Avery said.
“We’re done!”
This was not up for discussion.
Avery was informing Elliot of her decision.
Elliot was frozen in place, and his eyes were filled with disbelief.
Everything was going fine before this.
Avery was cooking for him every day and sleeping in his arms every night…
He thought that they would be in love for the rest of their lives.
When had she decided to break up with him?
Elliot had no idea.
It could have been after Christmas, or it could have been earlier than that.
“I’m leaving soon. I’ve hired a lawyer for the divorce proceedings. He’ll contact you after the holidays,” Avery said as she wipes the tears off her face.
She continued to step away from him, then said, “Let’s not see each other ever again, Elliot. Don’t contact me. Let’s just pretend like we never met!”
Avery clenched her fists and tried her best to hold back her tears.
She was merely curious the first time she saw the photos of that woman on Elliot’s computer.
However, seeing them again on his phone was the final straw for her.
The only photos on Elliot’s phone were those of that woman.
Avery could no longer run away from the harsh reality.
The man she loved had another woman in his heart.
