Chapter 282

It was a call from Chad.

“Mike said that there used to be a malignant tumor in his brain. When it got serious, he would pass out

and lose consciousness. It was Professor Hough that removed his tumor,” said Chad.

Elliot said, “He still did not mention why he was working together with Avery?”

“He did. He said he likes drones. Avery possessed a system that Jack Tate invented. After he perfected

Jack’s system, he was very satisfied with it, so he joined up with Avery and started a company

together.”

The answer was flawless.

After the call, Elliot headed back to the restaurant. Although he resented Wanda, he was asking a favor

from Zoe, so he had to show some respect to the woman.

After he entered the restaurant, Zoe immediately walked over to him and said, “Elliot, I‘m sorry. This is

the first time I‘m meeting Wanda. I did not know that she was Avery’s stepmother. I rarely talk to my

father, so he didn’t tell me about this beforehand either.”

After listening to her explanation, Elliot strode over to the table and sat down.

“Hello, Richard,” said Elliot to Zoe‘s father. As for Wanda, he treated her as if she were nothing more

than a passing breeze.

“Hello, Elliot.” Richard smiled awkwardly. “I‘m sorry, I‘ve been abroad for a long time, and I have never

discussed the past with Wanda, so I didn‘t know that you two have history.”

“It’s fine. Avery and I are divorced,” Elliot said calmly.

Wanda could see that Elliot had a problem with her. She thought for a while before saying,” Elliot, I am

very sorry about what happened in the past. I‘ve also called Avery and apologized to her already. I

offered her seven hundred million, but she didn‘t want to accept it.”

Elliot’s eyes swept over Wanda.

Zoe exclaimed in surprise, “You have seven hundred million dollars?!”

The amount was enormous!

She never thought that Wanda would have so much money.

“I don‘t have that much money, but if I mortgage my company, it would be enough to gather this

amount. I did it to show my sincerity,” lamented Wanda. “I hoped to reconcile with Avery, but it‘s not

going well.”

Elliot received a phone call from Zoe at five in the afternoon

“Elliot, my dad is back in the country. Are you busy right now? He wants to have dinner with you

tonight.”

Elliot looked at the time for a moment and replied, “Okay.”

“Right, by the way, I told you that my parents are divorced. My dad will be bringing his new girlfriend as

well. I hope you don‘t mind?” Zoe hesitated for a while before coming clean.

Elliot replied, “No, I don‘t mind.”

He did not have his eyes on Zoe, and neither was he interested in her father‘s new girlfriend.

An hour later, Elliot met Zoe‘s father and his new girlfriend. Instantly, his mind went blank. He forgot

what he should say or do.

His sharp gaze landed on the new girlfriend.

“Mr. Foster, do you recognize me?” Wanda smiled and said, “Although we used to be related, we have

never truly met! I never thought that we would meet this way.”

Elliot‘s expression instantly darkened. The atmosphere was getting awkward and colder as time went

by At that moment, Elliot‘s phone rang. He picked the call up and strode out of the restaurant.

It was a call from Chad.

“Mike said that there used to be a malignant tumor in his brain. When it got serious, he would pass out

“I don‘t have that much money, but if I mortgage my company, it would be enough to gather this

amount. I did it to show my sincerity,” lamented Wanda. “I hoped to reconcile with Avery, but it’s not

going well.”

Zoe saw how dark Elliot’s expression was, so she said, “Wanda, let’s not talk about this.”

“Okay, I‘ll stop,” Wanda knowingly stopped talking.

Returning from the meal, Elliot was even more determined that he should not follow Zoe’s advice.

If Avery knew that Wanda was Zoe’s father’s current girlfriend and possibly even Zoe’s future

stepmother, Avery would stop contacting him.

Shea suddenly walked over and hugged him. Elliot felt his sister’s warmth and how much she relied on

him. His chest felt tight. Although she showed more intelligence than before, she still could not take

care of herself.

It was almost New Year’s. After that, she would begin the next stage of her treatment. He was looking

forward to that.

However, tonight’s meeting with Wanda disgusted him. As long as he and Zoe were so-called lovers,

then they might still have a second meal, third meal, and so forth with Wanda.

“Shea, do you like Dr. Sanford?” Elliot held Shea‘s hand and sat down on the sofa.

Shea pursed her lips. Her bright eyes looked at Elliot. She did not like Zoe, but she knew that Zoe was

her brother‘s girlfriend.

“What about you?” Shea had learned how to answer a question with one of her own.

Elliot shook his head and explained, “I need her to treat you. Shea, she could cure you.”

Upon hearing how he did not like Zoe, Shea got bolder. “Avery can treat me too!”

Elliot furrowed his brows. He realized that things were not as simple as they seem!

“Shea, has Avery treated you before?”

She pursed her lips and nodded.

Elliot placed his hands on her shoulders. He studied her with his dark eyes, “When has she treated

you? Was it when you were lost?“.

When Shea was around, she always had a nanny to look after her. Elliot could keep track of Shea all

day. Thus, it was easy for him to figure out that shea had met Avery only when she went missing!
