Chapter 126

The tension between Elliot and Avery grew drastically.

They were seated next to each other, but it looked like they were on the verge of war.

Afraid that they would break into a fight, Mrs. Cooper quickly brought over a fresh fruit platter.

"Have you had lunch, Madam? I left some food out for you."

Avery shot to her feet and stormed toward the dining room.

Elliot watched her walk away. He could not figure out her thoughts.

If she was furious, she probably would not stay for lunch.

However, the rage in her eyes made it impossible to deny that she was mad.

Avery had skipped breakfast and lunch, so her stomach was beginning to ache from hunger.

She took over half an hour to finish her food since wolfing it down would only cause indigestion and

add to her current discomfort.
