Chapter 198

When Avery heard his questioning, she had a wave of emotions.

“What did your girlfriend say to you?” she asked.

Elliot halted. He had not visited Zoe.

After listening to the recording, he got triggered and so he called her first.

“Avery, I’m asking you! Don’t change the topic!” His tone was more serious this time.

When Avery heard him yell, she began fuming, “Isn’t it obvious? I burned your girlfriend’s hand with
boiling water! Tell her to stay away from me, if not, I will burn her face!”

Elliot was speechless.

Avery, “Why’re you not speaking? Are you not trying to speak up for your girlfriend?”

Elliot gulped and gritted his teeth.

“If Miss Sanford’s hands are damaged, who will operate on your Shea? sigh, I’m suddenly so worried.
Elliot Foster, will you take revenge on me?” Avery continued.

“Avery Tate, even a fool knows you didn’t mean that! Even so, I do get angry listening to what you say!”
Elliot responded to her triggering words.

“Then stop calling me! You called on behalf of her, did you think I would cry to you saying I didn’t do it
and then ask for your forgiveness? This is more absurd than a dream!” Avery refuted coldly. There was a
knock on the office door.

Avery held on to her phone as she called out to her door, “Come in!”



Her assistant came in, not knowing that she was on her phone, “Miss Tate, a man named Cole Foster
claimed to be your friend. He would like to meet you.”

Avery said to her phone, “Your nephew is here, I’m not talking to you anymore!”

After hanging up, Avery walked to the washroom.

Five minutes later, Cole was brought to Avery’s office by her assistant.

Avery had already calmed herself down.

Looking at that familiar face of Cole’s, she felt disgusted as ever.

Her assistant closed the door when leaving.

“Avery, I can’t believe you’re back! I just found out you’re back a few days ago. You spent six hundred
million buying the building for Tate Industries and it went viral! However, I was busy a few days ago so I
couldn’t visit you.”

Cole walked toward Avery with a smirk.

“Cole, you’re more annoying than before.” Avery looked at him, “What brings you here?”

“I came here to catch up with you…”

“Okay, then let’s talk about Cassandra’s death.” Avery walked over from her table, ready to ” catch up”
with him.

Cole’s face changed, “She’s dead, why do you mention her?”

“How could you be so cruel! Back then, during your Uncle and my wedding, you two were so happy!
Have you forgotten?” Avery saw his face turning red and white, she continued, “If this is the attitude you



show to a woman you slept with, why would you even remember me?”

Cole was extremely triggered but he dared not offend her, he wanted to please her but did not know how
to.

“Since there’s nothing left in us, you came here to talk about money?” Avery asked, “Unless you think
starting my business is tiring and you want to lend me money? Right, how’s your company doing? You’re
probably earning quite a lot? If you want to lend me money, you won’t take interest, right?”

Cole was speechless.

Regret was all he felt.

He should not have come.

Avery attacked him with words.

“Avery, can we not go against one another.” Cole sighed.

Avery took out her phone and texted Tammy to complain about him while speaking to him,” How are we
going against one another? I’m just trying to help you grow up. You’re not young now and you’re still
thinking of using women to get rich? I’d rather adopt a dog than find you!
