Chapter 126 – Love Entangled with Her Unconscious Husband Novel

Filed to story: Love Entangled with Her Unconscious Husband Novel >>

Avery sat on her chair as she felt an incoming threat.

Now that Zoe was hurt, she had the upper hand. She could say that this was an accident. She could also say that Avery burned her intentionally and her words were to be taken seriously.

Avery asked for the bill.

Soon after, the news of Avery burning Zoe got to the ears of Elliot. Out of all parts of Zoe’s body, her hands meant the most to him.

This was because Zoe had to perform surgery on ‘Shea.

And now, Avery had burned her hands…

“There’s no way Avery would do this!” Elliot said.

The bodyguard showed the video footage to Elliot.

The camera was facing Avery, it clearly showed how when Avery pushed Zoe’s hands away, the teapot was knocked over.

When Elliot saw the footage, he said again, “Avery did not intend to.”

Knowing Avery, he knew for sure she would not do this kind of thing.

The footage was showing video without audio.

If Zoe did not extend her hands in front of Avery, Avery would not have pushed her hands away.

The bodyguard did not expect Elliot to side with Avery!

“Boss, we have their audio recording here.” With that said, the bodyguard played it for Elliot.

“Look at how alike you two are! He’s handsome and you’re beautiful, you’re made for one another! When are you two getting married? I will send a grand gift!”

“Why not? Do you not want to? Or does he not want to? If he doesn’t want to, why don’t I help you talk to him?”

While Elliot listened to the recording, his face darkened.

His fingers clenched tightly.”

What Avery said stabbed him in the heart.

She wanted him to marry Zoe?

How funny!

At the Tate Industries.

Avery was waiting for Elliot’s call.

Zoe spent so much effort coming all the way here to create this incident. This was a perfect opportunity for Zoe to badmouth Avery to Elliot.

Suddenly, her phone rang.

She saw Elliot’s name on her screen.

After picking up, Elliot’s voice was heard, “Avery, Zoe’s hand was burned. Did you intend to do this?”

When Avery heard his questioning, she had a wave of emotions.

“What did your girlfriend say to you?” she asked.

Elliot halted. He had not visited Zoe.

After listening to the recording, he got triggered and so he called her first.

“Avery, I’m asking you! Don’t change the topic!” His tone was more serious this time.

When Avery heard him yell, she began fuming, “Isn’t it obvious? I burned your girlfriend’s hand with boiling water! Tell her to stay away from me, if not, I will burn her face!”

Elliot was speechless.

Avery, “Why’re you not speaking? Are you not trying to speak up for your girlfriend?”

Elliot gulped and gritted his teeth.

“If Miss Sanford’s hands are damaged, who will operate on your Shea? sigh, I’m suddenly so worried. Elliot Foster, will you take revenge on me?” Avery continued.

“Avery Tate, even a fool knows you didn’t mean that! Even so, I do get angry listening to what you say!” Elliot responded to her triggering words.

“Then stop calling me! You called on behalf of her, did you think I would cry to you saying I didn’t do it and then ask for your forgiveness? This is more absurd than a dream!” Avery refuted coldly. There was a knock on the office door.

Avery held on to her phone as she called out to her door, “Come in!”

Her assistant came in, not knowing that she was on her phone, “Miss Tate, a man named Cole Foster claimed to be your friend.

He would like to meet you.”

Avery said to her phone, “Your nephew is here, I’m not talking to you anymore!”

After hanging up, Avery walked to the washroom.

Five minutes later, Cole was brought to Avery’s office by her assistant.

Avery had already calmed herself down.

Looking at that familiar face of Cole’s, she felt disgusted as ever.

Her assistant closed the door when leaving.

“Avery, I can’t believe you’re back! I just found out you’re back a few days ago. You spent six hundred million buying the building for Tate Industries and it went viral! However, I was busy a few days ago so I couldn’t visit you.”

Cole walked toward Avery with a smirk.

“Cole, you’re more annoying than before.” Avery looked at him, “What brings you here?”

“I came here to catch up with you…”

“Okay, then let’s talk about Cassandra’s death.” Avery walked over from her table, ready to ” catch up” with him.

Cole’s face changed, “She’s dead, why do you mention her?”

“How could you be so cruel! Back then, during your Uncle and my wedding, you two were so happy! Have you forgotten?” Avery saw his face turning red and white, she continued, “If this is the attitude you show to a woman you slept with, why would you even remember me?”

Cole was extremely triggered but he dared not offend her, he wanted to please her but did not know how to.

“Since there’s nothing left in us, you came here to talk about money?” Avery asked, “Unless you think starting my business is tiring and you want to lend me money? Right, how’s your company doing? You’re probably earning quite a lot? If you want to lend me money, you won’t take interest, right?”

Cole was speechless.

Regret was all he felt.

He should not have come.

Avery attacked him with words.

“Avery, can we not go against one another.” Cole sighed.

Avery took out her phone and texted Tammy to complain about him while speaking to him,” How are we going against one another? I’m just trying to help you grow up. You’re not young now and you’re still thinking of using women to get rich? I’d rather adopt a dog than find you!

Cole asked, “Avery! Are you comparing me to a dog?!”

Avery replied, “Yeah! I know Cassandra well enough to know that she won’t have the guts to buy a killer! However, I’m not interested in the two of you, so whether you two die or live has nothing to do with me! If you keep bugging me, I won’t hesitate to find someone to investigate this!”

Cole’s face changed, “Avery! I didn’t come here for you, I happened to…pass by. I will catch up with you another time!”

Avery did not anticipate that random words from her would expose him.

Cole did not like Elliot but dared not use his name to buy a killer and sacrificed Cassandra.

The phone screen lit up as there was a message.

Avery clicked open the message, it was from Tammy: (How’s Elliot so low?! He called you for that woman! What’s wrong with him! He should have known you better!)

Cole saw that she was on her phone, so he stood up ready to leave.

Somehow, he glanced over and saw the chat background on her phone.

The background photo was two children. One boy and one girl.

The girl looked familiar!

“Avery, who’s the girl in the photo? I might have seen her before…” Cole walked toward Avery and asked.

Avery instantly turned the phone away. She glared at him coldly, “You can go now!” Cole was taken aback by her look, “I’ll leave now…I have been pestered by the girl, the girl seemed strange. She looks like the girl in your photo…maybe I’m wrong. I’ll leave now.”

After Cole had left, Avery was feeling uncertain

Could it be that Layla had gone to look for Cole?

.She knew that Hayden and Layla had been taking days off. She did not blame them. Perhaps they just came back and were getting used to the lifestyle here. Therefore, Avery gave them a lot of freedom.

The more she thought about it the more uncertain she was.

Why did these children look for Cole?

To her, Cole was as dangerous as Elliot.

On the other side.

After Elliot had phoned Avery, he went to visit Zoe.

Her hands were burned so they were bandaged.

He could not see the extent of the burn, so he did not know how severe

“Have you been to the hospital?” Eliot asked.

Zoe shook her head, “I can sort it out myself.”

“Severe?” he asked.

Zoe continued to shake her head, “Probably not, it’s just hurting a lot.”

Elliot’s face sank, “Why did you look for Avery? We had a divorce, you shouldn’t have looked for her.”

Zoe looked apologetic, “Sorry, Elliot. I heard that she’s a student of Professor Hough, so I thought we would have some mutual topics. I went over to look for her but didn’t see this coming.”

Zoe spoke and grimaced in pain with tears falling.

When Elliot saw her like this, he could not blame her any further.

“It hurts…” Zoe sobbed and leaned her head into Elliot’s chest. She said with a hoarse voice,” If my hands are badly burnt, what if I can’t perform surgery anymore?”

Elliot frowned and carried her in his arms, “I will bring you to the hospital.” Zoe put her arms around his neck and cuddled into him. She had a sly smile on her face.
