Chapter 979

"What's so interesting about gray hairs? They're just hairs that are gray.Can't you just imagine it in your
mind?"

Avery's answer left Cole speechless.

"Why do I feel like you're messing with me on purpose?" Cole mumbled.

"I'm not complaining about your oily hair, but you're saying I'm messing with you? If I really wanted to
mess with you, I could just get your uncle to do it.He won't just pull your hair out.He'll pull your whole
head off instead."

The color drained from Cole's face as terror took over.

"Didn't you say that my uncle isn't as heartless as I'd thought?"

"That's right.Otherwise, how would you still be alive? If you weren't his nephew, you'd be dead a long
time ago," Avery said.

"I'm leaving after I finish my coffee."

Cole was stunned for a moment, then said, "Didn't you ask me out to talk? What did you want to talk
about?"

"We already finished talking!"

Avery took a sip of coffee, then looked up at him.

"I just wanted to know how you were doing.Now that I know how pitiful things have been for you, I can't
bring myself to talk anymore."



"Why not?" Cole asked.

"It's because I've been doing very well.Whatever I say would just sound like I'm bragging to you.It
doesn't feel right."

Avery finished her coffee, then stood up and said, "The coffee's on me.Enjoy."

Cole watched her leave in a daze.

They barely exchanged ten sentences from beginning to end, and it was a conversation that could be
carried out over the phone.

The only thing she could not have done over the phone was pluck his hair out.

Cole was certain that Avery took a big chunk of hair off of his head and not a strand.

He would have thought that this was a dream if it were not for the lingering pain on his scalp.

Avery walked out of the cafe, then got in the car and drove toward the DNA testing center.

Her emotions were all over the place and she felt slightly nervous.

She did not know what the results of the DNA test would be.

There was no way for her to guess.

If Elliot and Cole's DNA matched that of an uncle nephew, then life would continue on its current
course.

It would simply overturn her traditional way of thinking.

She would believe that there truly were hidden experts in the world.



However, if their DNA results were not a match...

She let out a heavy sigh! If the results did not match, then it meant that Elliot was not a Foster.

Cole was the spitting image of Henry.

There was no need for a DNA test to confirm that they were father and son.

If news got out that Elliot was not a Foster...

Avery was too afraid to imagine the consequences.

Setting aside the effect this would have on the public, this would also have a huge impact on Elliot.He
had loved Shea so much that he was willing to kill his own father for her.

How could he possibly accept it if he ever found out that he and Shea were not biological siblings?! At
this thought, Avery dejectedly stopped the car by the street.

For some reason, her intuition told her that truth was just as she thought.

The more she thought about it, the clearer it was that Elliot was completely different from the rest of the
Foster family.

Avery no longer wanted to go through with the test.

She was too afraid to face that ending!
