NovelApp"You found Shea, didn't you?" He frowned and proposed another plan. "It's fine if you don’t want to kill Adrian, but just in case, I'l kill Nathan's family." Avery was speechless.
She could not accept what he proposed because she did not want him to kill anyone.

I'll get the bodyguards to keep watch over him in the hospital so Nathan can't get close to him for now.” She lowered her eyes and persuaded softly, "We'll try and find another way once you've recovered.” "Avoiding a problem won't solve it, Avery." Elliot's voice was cold. "He cannot live under the ssun as me." "Why not? Adrian won't take anything from you. He's just like Shea-someone whose status is probably less than that of a random person on the street. Were you going to kill Shea too if she was alive?" Avery questioned him with a frown.
"You're being unreasonable. Shea’s dead, so there's no basis for your question," he retorted.
"Who are you calling unreasonable? Did Adrian do anything wrong? Why can't you tolerate his existence?" Avery knew for a long tthat she and Elliot would have to eventually face that problem. However, she did not expect him to be that determined.
"He did nothing wrong. I'm the one who was wrong!" His face was gloomy. "I took his life and | don't plan on giving it back to him for the rest of my life!" "I never said you were wrong, Elliot." She took a deep, agonized breath. "You didn't choose your life. You were a victim too." He lifted the quilt and got off the bed.
She watched him stride into the bathroom and felt a dull pain in her heart.
She might not be able to convince him, because there was probably no better way to settle the problem.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmElliot was right, after all. If they hid Adrian, Nathan would go all out to find him, the quest of which would last for as long as Nathan was still breathing.
Either one of Adrian or Nathan had to die, or else things could turn from bad to worse at any time! During breakfast, Mrs. Scarlet secretly observed the two of them XJP< backed away.
It appeared that the conflict between them had not yet been resolved.
After she left, Avery opened her mouth and initiated a conversation. "I've been thinking, Elliot. If Adrian is discovered, the worst that could happen is that your background would be exposed. But why does it matter that you're not the Fosters’ young master? It doesn't affect your company’s operations at all." "You're right when you say that it won't affect my company, but it'll also expose my murder of Eason." Avery felt choked for a moment. "But you were underage at the time, so you will neither be charged for murder nor sentenced to death.” "Do you have any idea how cruel it is that you said that, Avery?" He put down his cutlery and had an ashen face. "I don't want any outsiders to know about my history and my underage murder! But now you're forcingto face them!" "I never forced you to face them. | just..." She sighed and put down her cutlery too. " Please just don't kill anyone, okay? You had no choice when you killed Eason, but it's not as if you have no choice right now." "You can leave now!" he felt a splitting headache coming on and said hoarsely. "I want to be alone for a while." She felt empty inside when he got up from the dining chair and left the dining room.
The last thing she wanted was for him to suffer, but she was very much aware that she was the one who brought upon him that very suffering.
Without her, he could do whatever he wanted without anyone objecting to him, and no one would be able to threaten him anymore.
Avery continued to sit for a moment before coming out of the dining room and leaving the house.
