Chapter 970

"Mir.Foster asked me to take you to the airport."

Once the elevator doors opened, the bodyguard entered with Avery.

"I don't need you to take me there!"

"What are you raising your voice at me for?" snapped the bodyguard.

"I'm just following my boss's orders and doing my job!"

As Avery looked at the dark expression on the bodyguard's face, she swallowed the words she wanted
to say before they could escape her lips.

This entire thing was strange and absurd.She had a hunch that something was not right.

"Did he say anything else when he told you to take me to the airport?" she asked softly.

"First, wipe those tears away.Your crying is frustrating me."

Avery lifted her hand to wipe the tears off her face.

"Is he being threatened?"

"I don't know.

He just told me to take you to the airport as soon as possible."

Avery remained silent.



"From what I know about my boss, I'm guessing this place is most likely not safe anymore.He fought
with you to protect you and get you to leave."

The bodyguard had thought that saying this would move Avery to stay and stand by Elliot's side.

In the eyes of the bodyguard, Avery was a loving, righteous woman who was not afraid of death.

Otherwise, Elliot would not love her this much.

However, Avery simply stayed silent, lost in her thoughts.

"Hey, what are you thinking about?"

The bodyguard nudged her with his elbow.

"Did you hear what I just told you? Show some kind of reaction, won't you?!"

Avery took a deep breath, then said, "Should I continue to cry when I step out of the elevator?"

The bodyguard was taken aback.

Avery turned to look at him and asked him sincerely, "What if they don't let me leave? The only way to
avoid the bad guys' suspicion is to put on a pitiful display of heartbreak."

The bodyguard was speechless.

Of all the ups and downs that he had been through with Elliot through the years, he had never come
across a professional actress like Avery Tate! It was as if the woman who was crying her heart out just
moments ago was a completely different person not the real her.

"Now, she is calmly thinking of an escape plan, and not about how much danger Elliot is in.How
heartless can she be?!" thought the bodyguard.



The bodyguard felt like he had misjudged Avery, and he felt bad for his boss! "why would Elliot give his
everything to such a cold-blooded and cruel woman? "Her behavior proved that you truly can't judge a
person's character until trouble came knocking,"

surmised the bodyguard in his head.

A staff member from the villa drove Avery and the bodyguard to the bottom of the mountain and then
drove the car back up to the villa.

Avery immediately pulled out her phone and called the police.

The bodyguard watched as she resolutely called the police, then watched her call Chad to come up
with a way to send people over to Mount Sierra and rescue Elliot.

The bodyguard instantly understood that Avery was not in a rush to escape because she was
heartless, but so that she could rescue Elliot.

If she had stayed up on the mountain, not only would she be dragging Elliot behind, but there was also
no way for her to help him.

"What do we do next?" asked the bodyguard as he crossed his arms in front of his chest.

"Maybe you should head back up the mountain?"

Avery thought about the situation seriously for a moment, then said, "Otherwise, it would be too
dangerous for him to be up there alone.You'd be able to protect him if you were there with him."

"Do you expect me to walk up the mountain on foot?"

Avery glanced around her surroundings.



The area was secluded and there was no sign of a vehicle.
