NovelApp"It's no wonder you were looking for Adrian yesterday! So you are trying to get him to donate his kidney, after all!" Cole realized Avery's plan and said, "You asked me and my dad to give our kidneys on purpose so that we would panic, and only after you see us panicking would you mention Adrian... | have to say, Avery, you sure are smart!" "Cole, don't try to undermine me with your crooked view of the world. Under normal circumstances, you are the one who's supposed to take the initiative and donate your kidney, but | know that you are too much of a coward to do so." "Speak properly! Why are you calling me a coward? Shea is my aunt, but what exactly has she done for me all these years? She hasn't even spoken to me once, and now you are asking me to donate my kidney to her? | would have to be crazy to do that!" Cole shouted furiously.
Henry tapped him on the arm, signaling him to calm down.

Adrian will have to do that for her." Henry had already calmed down and come up with a plan.
Avery had not expected things to go so smoothly. "Sure! Hand Adrian over to me and I'll take him to the hospital for a checkup." "Avery, | agreed to give Adrian's kidney to Shea, but I'm not doing so merely to save Shea. | want some security." Henry smiled.
"Shea ended up this way in order to save your kid, so it's not too much for me to ask for something in return, right?" Avery clenched her fists. She had been too naive to think that these two would have a conscience.
The waiter returned with the donut and milk she ordered and set them down before her.
"You are right, Dad. To take better care of my uncle and aunt from now on, we do need to ask for something in return.” Cole's lips curled into a satisfied smirk.

"I'd advise you two to think carefully before naming your price. | can pay you, but if you ask for more than | can accept, | won't be able to satisfy you!" "Even if you don't have the money, your husb "He does have the money. But if he finds out about this, do you think he would just give you the money, or send his bodyguards over to take Adrian away?" said Avery. "The only reason | didn't tell Elliot about this is because | didn’t want to make a scene out of this!" "So make a scene, then!" Henry said mercilessly, "I have nothing left, Avery, so you are not going to threaten me with anything! Besides, I've hidden Adrian away. Let's see if you can really take him! Unless you want Shea to die, you are going to give me exactly what | want!" "What do you want?" asked Avery.
"One-third of the Sterling Group shares," said Cole decisively, "and nothing less! Both you and Elliot owe the Foster family far too much!" Avery sneered, "And if we don't give you those shares? Do you really think that your kidneys are the only ones that are potentially compatible with Shea?” Cole and Henry's expressions darkened.
The negotiation ended horribly, and Avery left the restaurant in a fit of fury.
She walked back to the residential area, and by the time she arrived home, her stomach was twitching in hunger.
She changed her shoes and went to the dining room with her hand on her stomach.
"Mrs. Cooper, is there any breakfast left? | haven't eaten." "Of course. Mr. Foster hasn't eaten as well.” Mrs. Cooper looked her up and down. "Why didn't you eat outside?" "I got into an argument when | was lining up," she said, coming up with a quick excuse. "I just didn't have the mood to eat there after that." "It's packed out there during this hour." Mrs. Cooper served her breakfast and said," Don't let it get to your head.” "Yeah." She checked the time and mumbled, "It's already eight. Why hasn't Elliot woken up? I'm going to check on him."
