Avery furrowed her brows and cout of the dining hall. She decided to drive to Elliot's office to look for him.
She wanted to know if he was truly so busy, that he did not have tto check on his phone, or if there were other reasons.
Half an hour later, she parked her car at the entrance of the Sterling Group building.
The lights on sof the floors of the building were still on. She immediately walked into the lobby.
When the guards saw her, they immediately let her enter.

With a ding, the doors of the lift slowly opened.
The corridor lights were still on, but the lights in Elliot's office were off. He was not in the office. Was he already on the way back home? She was much more disappointed than she was hopeful.
She felt that something must have happened. If not, he would not have gone without contacting her for so long.
They had been very sweet together after their marriage. Even if they spent 24 hours a day together, they would not be sick of it.
Why had he changed? Had Henry and Cole got to him? However, she had already made a deal with them. Also, they did not have the courage to provoke him.
Avery bent down by his office door and dialed Chad.
Chad answered immediately once again. " Avery, what is it?" "Where is Elliot? I'm at his office right now, but he isn't in anymore." She could not hide the disappointment in her tone.
"When | left for work, | passed on your message to him. His phone ran out of battery. | think his charger is broken or something.
A client wanted to treat him to a meal to talk about their cooperation in detail, so | think he is out with the client right now!" Chad tried to cup with a reason.
At that moment, Elliot was sitting in his car, because Elliot did not want to go home, so he got Chad to send him to a hospital.
"Avery, why don't you head to the parking lot to have a look. If Mr. Foster's car is still there, he has most likely left with the client, " Chad continued.

"No. The client and Mr. Foster have known each other for a long talready.” "Oh, okay. Why don't you sendthe client's number?" Avery wanted to keep an eye on him.
"Uh, | don't have the client's number because he usually contacts Mr. Foster directly,” Chad said.
After the call, Chad looked at Elliot in the passenger seat behind him.
"Mr. Foster, if you're not going htonight, what about tomorrow night?" "We'll talk about it tomorrow.
"Tomorrow morning, Avery would most likely head to the office to look for you." "I'm not going to the office tomorrow." "Then, where are you planning to go?" Chad panicked a little.
"I don’t have to report to you. If she comes looking for me, just make something up," Elliot ordered Chad.
Chad responded and said worryingly, "Mr. Foster. I'm a little afraid of you doing this." "Don't callthat,” Elliot interrupted Chad "I'm not going to be your boss in the future.” Avery had already decided to give his shares to Henry. If he were to not agree to Avery's request, could their marriage still go on?
