Chapter 1054
The bodyguard did not immediately realize who was that ‘husband’ she mentioned.
“Your husband? Who’s your husband?” the bodyguard raised his voice and asked.
Elliot could hear the bodyguard’s gruff voice even though she was speaking with the bodyquard through the cell phone.
Avery blushed immediately. “Who else could it be besides Elliot? We’re getting married soon.”
“Oh! So you’re not married yet but you’re already referring to him as your husband?” the bodyguard teased. “Alright. Go ahead and take care of him. I’ll just ignore Adrian.”
Had Elliot not been standing beside her, Avery would have asked the bodyguard to pass the phone to Adrian and comforted him. His presence made her wary of doing it.
She looked at Elliot after hanging up.

He turned his body to his side with his back facing her.
She placed her cell phone down and leaned toward him.
“How do you feel, Elliot?” she asked, reaching out and touching his forehead.
He remembered what happened the night before and so pushed her hand away out of resentment.
“I’m sorry, okay. I made a mistake yesterday.” She rested her body on top of him and asked in a soft voice. “Are you hungry? Let me bring you breakfast!”
“Why aren’t you taking care of that fool at the hospital?” he asked sullenly.
“Because you’re more important to me than he is.” She flipped him over so that he was facing her. “Look, Elliot. I put the ring on, and it fits perfectly.”
He looked at the diamond ring on her finger and it successfully suppressed the anger in his heart.
He still remembered what she said to him when he had a fever the night before.
He trusted that she did not come late on purpose, but there would always exist that irreconcilableness between himself and Adrian. After all, she could not tell him that she loved him while at the same time leading Adrian on.
It did not matter that she was only doing so out of sympathy and pity.
“I know you can’t accept Adrian,” she opened up when she saw his cold and gloomy face, “Because he’s Shea’s brother. I know everything, Elliot.”
Her words made his expression turn even colder.
