Chapter 1045
How could that happen?!
“Avery, hold up!” Nathan chased after her and grabbed her by the arm. “Don’t you dare bully me! Don’t back me
up against a corner! I know all of Elliot’s secrets! If you don’t want me to go up against him, don’t force me! I want
Adrian to be with me only so I can get some money from Elliot! I don’t want his life! I don’t want to kill Adrian too!”
Avery clenched her fists tightly. She said coldly, “If you want to look for Elliot for money, go look for him, but I can’t
hand Adrian back to you. What if he continues trying to take his life when he is back with you? I treated him with
such difficulty. I can’t let him risk this.”
Her words made Nathan have murderous intentions against her.

At the South Devotion Plaza.
Elliot has prepared everything. He only needed Avery to arrive. Jun sent him a message saying that Tammy and
Avery have parted ways. Avery should reach him soon.
He looked at the time. It was already five-thirty in the evening. Jun sent him the message at five o’clock
Technically speaking, Avery should have arrived in half an hour.
The proposal scene was on the balcony on the second edfloor.
Other than being decorated with assorted flowers, there would be a beautiful light show once it was dark
Other than that, Elliot had also invited a zafamous pianist to serenade them. The kitchen was almost ready too.
It was getting darker, yet Avery was not there yet.
90Elliot stood by the balcony’s railings. Looking at the cars passing by below. He hoped that the next second she
would appear downstairs, looking up and smiling at him.
When it was six o’clock, he took his phone out and dialed Avery’s number.
94The call was soon picked up. Avery said, “Elliot, I’ll only be able to see you in a little while soon.”
She answered his call outside the ward. Adrian had just woken up. He was weak. When he saw her, he was rather
agitated. She could not leave him at that moment. She had to wait until Adrian calmed down before going to see
Elliot.
Elliot 34furrowed his brows. “Why?”
“I…” She instinctively wanted to tell him the truth, but she was afraid that if she told him where Adrian was, it would
be bad for him, so after hesitating for a few moments, she decided to lie, “I want to pick a gift for you. I’m not done
choosing.”
Hearing her answer, Elliot’s 53furrowed brows relaxed.

Avery heard his melodious voice. She was feeling rather apologetic. “Hmm, okay.”
When she met him later, she wanted to see if she could talk about Adrian.
After hanging up, Avery placed her phone back in her bag. She returned to the ward and sat down next to the bed.
“Adrian, don’t worry. I will get my bodyguard to protect you. Nathan won’t dare to come to look for you anymore.”
Looking at Adrian’s pale face, she promised him once again, “I won’t let others bully you. Once you get discharged,
I will come to pick you up.”
Adrian nodded gently. “Avery, I knew you would come to look for me.”
“I have been constantly looking for you, but I couldn’t find you.” Avery grabbed his huge palms. “You can’t do silly
things like this again in the future. If you were to arrive at the hospital any later, you could have died.”
At seven in the evening, at the South Devotion Plaza. Night had arrived but Avery was still not there.
Elliot dialed her phone once more. “I’m sorry, the number you have dialed is not in service, please try again later.”
