NovelOnlineCole slapped Avery hard. If she did not cover the bruise on her face, she did not dare to return home, because if Elliot saw that she was bullied, he would surely get to the bottom of it and avenge her.
At that moment, Adrian was still with Henry and Cole. She could not worsen the conflict between them.

Mike and Avery were slowly walking behind them.
"Have you thought about what | said to you during the day?" Mike asked softly, "I have already contacted a professional assassin. | have been to Henry and Cole's house the last time. All | need is a nod, and this issue will be solved tonight.” Avery was stunned. She asked, "I don't know where Adrian is being hidden. If you kill Henry and Cole, how are you going to look for Adrian?" Mike had not thought about this question, but he did not find this to be a huge problem. "When we kill Henry and Cole, we'll get Elliot to use his powers and send men and sweep the city. I'm sure we'll find Adrian.” "What if we can't find him? Elliot is only human. He isn’t God. If we can't find Adrian, Adrian will starve to death!" Avery refuted his suggestion.
"If you're so worried about everything, this matter will never be solved." Mike shrugged. He looked at Elliot in front of him and said, "If it were up to me, you should just tell Elliot about this. Let this be his problem. It's better than silently bearing it." "Did you chere tonight just to tellthis?" Avery was feeling extremely glum at that moment, but she could not show it on her face. "I don't need you to lecture me." She understood she could barely hold onto the pressure any longer.
Not only because of the slap that day, but it was mostly because of Cole saying he would send her Adrian's blood every day.
Even if she could persist through the day, she could not guarantee she could do so the next day or the day after. She would surrender.

"Mike, why don't you go back. I'll properly think about this. If | really can't do it, I'll look for Elliot," Avery said helplessly, "I can't just watch Adrian die." She could not let Shea die too.
"Why do you have such strong feelings for Adrian?" Mike did not underst:e, Mike uncontrollably raised his voice, which Elliot coincidentally overheard.
He did not know what Avery said. Mike turned and left.
"What were you talking about with Mike?" Elliot walked over to Avery and asked.
"Nothing much." She did not want to talk about this topic with Elliot, so she lifted Robert out of the stroller. "Robert, let's try to walk, shall we?" Robert furrowed his brows when he was placed on the ground.
Elliot furrowed his brows too. Avery was clearly avoiding him! Something must have happened with Adrian again!
