Chapter 574

After two seconds of silence, he could no longer control himself and called out to her, “Avery!”

His voice was filled with unconcealable concern for her.

She gagged a few times and finally the nausea had passed.

Elliot regained his composure and muttered in a hoarse voice, “Avery, go lay down on the bed if you
don’t feel well.”

Enraged by what he had said, she retorted, “I don’t need your pity!”

He didn’t need to tell her how great Chelseaee was.

“I pity our child!” He said sternly as he tightened his grip on the phone.

“Why so?” She questioned sarcastically, “because I haven’t got rid of6f it?!”

“Avery Tate, do you really have to be so aggressive?!”

Elliot couldn’t help but wonder if he really was the villain like she said he was. He had been overjoyed
about their child and looked forward to it coming into the world; and when the accident happened, he
had been deeply hurt as well.

“Who started it first?” Avery sat by the bed, her eyes reddening as her fingers dug into the sheets.
“Chelsea is obedient and understanding… Repeat everything you just said!”

Elliot moved his lips but couldn’t utter a word.

“Don’t disgust me ever again!” She said sternly, before hanging up.



Elliot closed his eyes in despair.

He had been too reckless. He was blinded by rage and had forgotten that she was still pregnant with
his child.

‘How could I say something like that to her?’

“Elliot, let’s go eat!” Chelsea opened the door to his office and reminded him that it was time to get off
work.

He looked over at Chelsea. For the past year, Chelsea had been invisible and had never even spoken
to him unnecessarily; it wasn’t until recently that she appeared before him out of the blue.

“You should go ahead!” He said, “I am heading home directly.”

Chelsea nodded. “You don’t look so well, so don’t work overtime for too long.”

With that, she turned and left. Elliot picked up his phone to locate Chad’s number, before making a call.
“Chad, are you at Avery’s right now?”

Chad parked his car by the road and said, “no, I got into a fight with them. Everything was fine at dinner
and then Tammy mentioned things between you and Chelsea out of the blue. I couldn’t help but argue.
I guess I was out of line, but I’ve already left Starry River.”

Elliot massaged the bridge of his nose and said, “watch your tongue in front of Avery from now on.
She’s pregnant.”

“Yeah, I regretted it as soon as I left her mansion. I will apologize to her another day,” Chad said guiltily.

The next morning, Wesley went to visit Avery.



The two couldn’t help but give each other a hug.

“Avery, forget what my mom said to you before. She is old now and is quite stubborn.” Wesley had
been waiting the entire time for Avery to come back so he could explain everything to her.

“I am doing fine now, how about you? How’s the injury?”

“I’ve recovered long ago.” Avery led Wesley towards the couch to take a seat and poured him a glass
of warm water.

“Wesley, you can’t act so recklessly the next time something like that happens.”

“It won’t happen again. You, on the other hand, need to watch out now that your identity is out in the
open,” he reminded her.

“Yeah. Your hand…” She sat down next to him and lifted his hand.

“It’s okay. There’s no effect on my life.” Wesley showed her his wound and said, “Avery, Elliot has
asked me to be Shea’s teacher.” She looked at him in surprise at the words.
