Avery took a big step back away from him.

“I’m leaving, Elliot,” she said coldly.

“I can’t accept this,” Avery said as she shoved the ring into the pocket of his jacket.

“I love you, but I can’t do this anymore.”

I won’t force you to explain yourself, nor will I make you give her up… Because I know that it would all be a waste of time,” Avery said.
