Chapter 1056

At the hospital, Adrian was in rather low spirits because he did not see Avery that day.

The bodyguard sat beside his hospital bed and was absorbed in some mobile game. Meanwhile, Adrian
stared at the ceiling in a daze.

It did not take long before the door of the ward was pushed open and Avery walked in.

Adrian looked at her in a daze and thought he was dreaming. After all, the bodyguard had told him

earlier in the moming that Avery was not coming that day.

“How are you feeling today, Adrian?” Avery walked up to the bed and asked.

The bodyguard immediately quit the game and stood up in shock.

“Miss Tate? Didn’t you say you were going to take care of your husband today?” The bodyguard cleared
his throat awkwardly. “Why are you here? Is your husband alright? Or did you get into an argument with
him?”

“Would it kill you to talk a little less?” Avery seemed to realize that the people around her, such as Mike
and the bodyguard, frequently overstepped their boundaries.

It was probably because she had a good temper that they felt they could take things a little less seriously.

Adrian grabbed Avery’s hand and said with a bright smile, “I’m much better. Bring me out!”

“Are you sure you can be discharged from the hospital?” Avery glanced at his medication for that day
and saw that it was nearly finished.



“I don’t want to stay here,” he looked at her and pleaded. “I’m worried Nathan might come to me and hit
me.”

Avery looked at his uneasy expression and nodded. “I’ll ask your doctor and see if you’re ready to be
discharged from the hospital today. If so, then I’ll get you discharged.”

At Elliot’s mansion, Mrs. Scarlet brought breakfast to the master bedroom on the second floor after

Avery left.

“Master Elliot, you need to at least eat something or else your health will get worse,” Mrs. Scarlet said
bitterly. “I overheard your conversation earlier. That man named Adrian is Shea’s brother?”

Elliot took the food from Mrs. Scarlet’s hand and answered coldly.

“With all due respect, I don’t think you have anything to be afraid of,” Mrs. Scarlet said calmly. “No one
can undermine the status you have. No one is going to mock you regardless of your history, GXIqkF=0
killing Master Eason was a justified act. Even if the public knew the truth, they won’t necessarily scold
you.”

Mrs. Scarlet’s words stunned Elliot. “Do you truly believe so?”

“Whatever the outside world thinks of you is insignificant, because, in my eyes, you are a kind.

hearted and honest person. No man will ever be better than you, and I believe Avery sees you the same
way too.” Mrs. Scarlet said in all sincerity. “She advised you not to kill anyone because she’s afraid that
you’d lose your way. You were never wrong in the first place, but that will change if you take a person’s
life.”

Elliot’s mood calmed down gradually.



“I know what you’re afraid of. You’re concerned that your problems will affect Avery and the children.
You’re also worried that your peaceful life would be disrupted and that everyone will judge you wherever
you go in the future.” Mrs. Scarlet pointed out his inner fears. “But you have nothing to be afraid of.
You’re not an ordinary person, which means that the troubles you have to face will be even more
complicated than those of an ordinary person.”

“I’m not as strong as you think,” he said bluntly. “I still can’t accept my history.”

“Think positively. No matter what kind of history you have, Avery will never hate you. Whatever you have
experienced in the past would not affect your happy life with Avery in the future.”

An hour later, a black car stopped at the entrance of Elliot’s home.

Avery’s bodyguard got out of the car first.

Mrs. Scarlet immediately went upstairs to report to Elliot after seeing Avery’s retum

“Master Elliot! Avery is here.” Elliot’s mood had improved greatly after Mrs. Scarlet persuaded him.

He would no longer blame Avery for all those problems, and he understood that it was for his good when
Avery forbade him from killing anyone.

He calmed himself down and went downstairs. However, he had already spotted Avery with another man
before he even got to the first floor.
