If | were to go to work, | wouldn't be like that anymore." "Even if you're going to work, you don't have to get up so early. Csleep witha while longer." Elliot reached his hand out.

"Elliot, are you always that suspicious?" Avery chuckled lightly. "Are you thinking that | put on makeup to see other men?" "I never thought that." Elliot hugged her around the waist. He said what was on his mind. "I care about you, so | would think more about it when you do something out of the ordinary.” She never thought that he would be so honest with his feelings.

"What are we doing? It's as if we're about to part in death!” Avery laughed and nestled in his arms. She hugged him tightly.

When Avery placed the phone down, her hand was trembling terribly.
Cole, that animal! He really did what he said he would do! Avery rushed out of her office to the reception to collect her package.
She took the package and opened the bag. It had a bag of blood in it. When she saw the bag of blood, her face paled! The bag of blood was much bigger than the one the day before! It was ten milliliters the day before, but the bag that day was definitely more than ten milliliters! She picked up her phone and dialed Cole.
"Have you received the package?" Cole sounded lazy. "Right, by the way, today is twenty milliliters, because | realized you unfriendedon social media, so I'm quite mad." "Cole, are you nuts!" Cole ignored her. "When | was drawing blood from Adrian today, he even askedwhy | was taking his blood. This idiot! I'm dying from laughter! Hahaha!" Crash! Avery smashed her phone heavily onto the ground!
