It was not so much of a secret, rather, it was really private details that no other people would be able to know.
Stuff like Avery's passwords were all written on the notebook.
However, Elliot was of course uninterested in Avery's passwords. He also did not plan to look through others’ private details.
Elliot quickly skipped through the sensitive details and finally, on the next page, he saw a picture that Avery glued to the page, it was a picture of the both of them.
In the picture, both of them seemed to be having the time of their lives. In the picture, Elliot was kissing Avery's face. The picture caused a sudden spike in Elliot's heart rate. He could feel his chest heaving and his body temperature rising.
As Elliot flipped through the remaining pages, every other page was filled with pictures of both of them, they were pictures of them together in the living room, eating together, in the bedroom, both of them together at the mall, in a restaurant and even by the beach.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtElliot did not stop to look closer at any of the pictures. He could not allow himself to be slowed down by the past.
Elliot told himself that his past was a failure, and he could not allow himself to fail again.
Elliot slammed the notebook shut and threw it in the rubbish bin.
"Mr. Foster, the results are out. According to the results, your recovery is quite good, but there are still a few things to take note of. You shouldn't over exert yourself, and of course, no intense exercise," explained the doctor as he handed the report over to Elliot.
"Thank you, doctor," said Elliot as he took the report.
Even after taking the report, Elliot's eyes were still fixated on the rubbish bin and he stood still.
The doctor looked at Elliot who was still standing there, and said, "You could take the report to our chief physician to get a second opinion." "Anything else?" asked the doctor when Elliot still refused to move.
"No, nothing. You can go now," replied Elliot.
The doctor scratched his head as he walked back into the room.
After the doctor had walked away, Elliot picked up the notebook =c#:VKR; tore the first page of the notebook out before throwing the notebook back into the bin.
Elliot wants to leave his past behind, that's why he must throw the notebook away, but he wasn't going to risk leaking Avery's secrets to the world.
Elliot folded the paper up and stuffed it into his pocket.
As Elliot walked out of the hospital, his driver immediately got out of the car and opened the door for him.
The car sped out of the hospital as soon as Elliot got in the car.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmUnbeknownst to him, a man in the parking lot threw the cigarette butt on the ground and stomped it out as he got up and followed Elliot.
The man was Avery's bodyguard and he was tasked with following Elliot. His primary task was to figure out where Elliot was living. If he can't do that, he was supposed to report back to her when the day ended, he was supposed to report back to Avery and tell her all about Elliot and what did he do for the day.
The man knew that it wouldn't be easy. That was why he initially refused to take up the task, but when Avery took out her phone to book an airplane ticket for him to go back home, he knew that he had no other choice.
The bodyguard knew that he could not just leave Avery alone here, that is why he could not leave her side.
Avery could see the hesitation in her bodyguard's eyes, that was why she told him that the reason Elliot was so cold towards her, was because he had forgotten all about their past experiences, but he wasn't cold by nature.
Even if Elliot were to discover that he was being stalked, Elliot would not harm him.
The bodyguard tried his best to tail Elliot's car without being discovered.
However, Elliot's driver quickly spotted the car tailing them and asked Elliot, "Mr.
Foster, the black car behind us has been tailing us since we left the hospital." Elliot after hearing his driver's words, turned around.
