Rosalie stood looking into the room from the open door.

Avery was curled up in a ball with her arms around her knees as she leaned against the wall.

Her hair was down, and it was a mess.

She looked up in a daze when she heard the commotion at the door.

"Avery! What happened to you?" Rosalie exclaimed. When she saw Avery's face, which was white as a sheet of paper, her blood pressure instantly shot up.

"How did you become like this? Was it... Was it Elliot? Is he abusing you?"

At this point, there was a slight tremble in Rosalie's voice.

Avery had lost a lot of weight.

Her face was void of any color, and there were faint cracks on her dry lips.

Her chest rose and fell unsteadily. She wanted to speak, but she could not find her voice.

Mrs. Cooper walked over with a glass of warm milk and passed it to Avery.

"Have a glass of milk first, Madam. Don't be afraid. Now that Madam Rosalie is here, you can eat."

Rosalie's brows furrowed furiously as she said," What's that? Elliot isn't letting Avery eat? How did she get so skinny? Is he trying to starve her to death?"

The incident shocked Rosalie to the core.

She stormed over to the living room and stood before her son.

"Elliot, Avery is the wife that I arranged for you. What would you have me think if you tormented her this way?"

"She should be punished for her mistakes. If it weren't for your sake, do you think I would have allowed her to stay until now?" Elliot said in a cold, nonchalant voice.

The way he saw it, starving her for two days was a lot more merciful than breaking her arm.

She touched something she was not supposed to. She crossed his line. How could he easily forgive her?

"Mistake? What did Avery do?" asked Rosalie.

In her eyes, Avery was a sensible, well-behaved, and observant girl. She would never be stupid enough to deliberately anger Elliot.
