Regret?
At that moment, Elliot was a little baffled. Avery sold off the company without any warning. From the public's point of view, she did
that because he left her no choice.
"Elliot, you forced her hand. Are you satisfied now?" Ben continued when he did not get an answer. "She has already fled to
Bridgedale. You two had been living parallel lives, yet you insist on opening a company at Bridgedale, telling everyone that you
want to bring down Alpha Technologies. Although Avery might not starve in the future, have you ever thought that what you did
was very low? Hayden is not even an adult yet! You have cut off Avery's future. Are you planning to make your son suffer as well?"
Elliot quietly listened to Ben's reprimands without responding. He never thought that Avery would sell off the company, but Ben
was right. Ever since he had made Natalie the vice president of Tate Industries, he had consigned his relationship to the grave.
"Are you doing this to Avery to ensure that Avery has nothing? Are you doing this to bring Hayden to your side?" Ben thought and
said, "Hayden is like you. You treat Avery this way, and even if Hayden starves to death, he won't choose to return to your side!"
"Have you said enough?" Elliot swallowed." | don't regret it!"

On the other end of the line, Ben was stunned. He had drunk quite a lot at the event he attended that night. He was quite
inebriated, which was why he had called Elliot.
When he heard Elliot say that he did not regret his actions, he instantly becinfuriated.
"Elliot, since when have you becthis way?" Ben no longer cared about Elliot's feelings. He said everything that was on his
mind. "Why do you act as if Avery owes you everything? You two owe each other nothing! At least, that's how | see it. Can you stop
thinking that you're the center of the universe and stop seeking revenge on whoever doesn't listen to you? You're extremely
childish!"
"I think I'm the center of the universe? I'm trying to seek revenge on her?" Elliot was stunned by Ben's words.
"Are you not doing that? | always thought that you're a sensible person, but you are not one bit sensible to Avery. You feel that
since she has given you three children, so you can just do whatever you want :d%;ULT: she will still put up with you because you
have her children! You never thought that your plan would fail, and now, you are angry!"
Ben's words truly infuriated Elliot.
"Is she that pitiful in your eyes?"
"Is she not? Elliot, won't your heart hurt?" Ben said. "Previously, | didn't understand why she insisted on divorcing you. | even
scolded her in front of you. Later, when | found out the truth, your actions really exceeded my imagination! You-"
Before Ben could finish talking, Elliot interrupted him and asked coldly, "What do you know?"
What so-called truth was there that he did not know about?
"Do you really wantto spell it out?
Previously, just to save you face, | didn't mention a single thing-" "Tell me!" Elliot barked. "Just f*cking tell me!"
"Okay! Since you don't mind the humiliation, | won't hold back!" Ben yelled." Previously during the Goulds incident, when we were
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmprepared to head to Ylore, you received a phone call from Avery. Why didn't you say that something had happened to Avery too? In
the end, you didn't even care about her! If you had f* eking told me, do you think | would have allowed you to go to Ylore?"
Elliot felt as if he had been hit by a club! He gripped his phone tightly. His palms were sweating.
"Did you say that... something had happened to Avery too back then?" Elliot could hear his own heartbeat. A cacophony of laughter
and mockery rang in his mind.
Ben heard Elliot's question. He scratched his head. "Avery said you knew about it. Do you still have to pretend?"
"What happened to her? Ben, tell me!" Elliot's face paled and flushed red. Sweat gathered on his forehead, but he shivered
uncontrollably.
"Are you still pretending? Elliot, won't you feel sheepish?" Ben mocked. "She couldn't see back then. She called you but you left her
and ran to Ylore. If | were her, | would be disappointed in you too! | would insist on divorcing you!"
It was as if an explosion went off in Elliot's mind. It felt as if everything was falling on him.
"She went blind? Did you say she went blind?" He repeated what Ben said.
