Chapter 860
Mike held Avery in his arms and comforted her in a low voice. “Men and women have different ways of thinking. He
must have been afraid that this would affect you and the children. He was wrong to assume your ability to handle
these things.”
“I don’t want to know what he was thinking because he has never told me how he truly felt,” Avery sobbed, “I would
be a joke if I always had to depend on others, or the news, to find out what he was going through! I can’t
sympathize with him! Even if he died from a sickness right now, I still won’t feel bad for him!”
“Don’t cry, Avery.” Mike had a mountain of things he wanted to say to console her, but they never escaped his lips,
Love was not something that could be explained with a few sentences.
Elliot was threatened into having to marry a disfigured Chelsea and become a laughing stock. “When His Eyes

had to experience this type of humiliation
However, what did Avery ever do wrong? Avery got tired from all the crying and fell asleep. She did not dream that
night and had a fairly good night’s sleep. When she woke up the next morning, she was in good spirits apart from
her slightly puffy eyes.
Today was the day of Adrian White’s surgery.
Avery made her way to the hospital at ten in the morning.
“Are you alright, Doctor Tate?” Adrian’s father, Nathan White, asked as he gazed at her with shrewd eyes. “Your
issues with Elliot Foster won’t affect the surgery, right?”
Avery did not expect Nathan to say such things.
Her relationship with Elliot had never completely been made public, but Nathan seemed to know quite a bit about it.
“Mr. White, I would be honest with you if I was not feeling well and not fit to perform surgery. Since I’m here, it
means I’m fine,” Avery explained clearly as she stared at Nathan’s face.
For some reason, once again, looking at him in such close proximity made her feel a peculiar sense ofed familiarity.
“I’m sorry. I was not doubting you. I just don’t think Elliot Foster should treat you like this.” Nathan smiled softly.
“That’s between him and me, Mr. White,” Avery said in astonishment. “Do you perhaps know himie well?”
Nathan shook his head with a grin and said, “How could I possibly know a bigshot like him? I’m just an ordinary
businessman. I’m afraid my annual income isn’t even as much as how
much he makes in a day!” His teasing came with a hint of mockery and made Avery feel extremely94 uneasy. She
could not help but feel like his words carried a strange vendetta against Elliot. “You should go and check on Adrian,
Doctor Tate! The doctor gave him a checkup and said he was fit for surgery,” Nathan said after holding back hisi8
emotions. Before Avery walked into the patient’s room, she glanced at the man and woman standing behind
Nathan
The woman was Adrian’s sister whom she had metd3 before. However, this was the first time she had seen the
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmman standing next to her. “This is Adrian’s brother, Doctor Tate. He’s normally quite busy, so you haven’t met him
before. Since today’s the day of Adrian’s big surgery, our whole family came to support him,” explainedcb Nathan.
“I see. Is your wife not here today?” Avery could not help but ask. She typically did not care much about her
patient’s family’s private matters, but Nathan made her uncomfortable and she had to ask. “We’re divorced.” “I’m
sorry.” Avery’s curiosity came to an end. Once the conversation was over, she entered the patient’s room. After she
looked through Adrian’s vitals and test results that day, she pulled out her phone and checked the time.
She was not sure how long the surgery would take. What she could confirm was that, by the time the surgery was
over, Elliot and Chelsea’s wedding should already be nearing its end.
They had announced the news of their engagement a few days ago, and could not wait to hold the wedding It did
not matter if Elliot wanted this wedding or not. Today, he was about to become someone else’s groom! Avery
pursed her lips, then pressed down on her phone’s power button until the screen turned dark.
