Avery sat in the lobby. Her eyes were in a daze. She was shuddering. She seemed to be in despair. She did not know what to do.
She did not want to tell Elliot because if she told him, he would really kill Henry and Cole. She did not want him to beca murderer! However, if she did not tell Elliot about it, she would have to see Adrian and Shea die.
No matter what she thought, she only cto one solution. She sat in the hospital for a while before dialing Cole.

"Let's meet and talk!" Avery cout of the hospital. "I'll send you the location. Cas soon as possible.” "Are you settingup? Avery, lettell you, Adrian is in our hands. If you're up to any tricks, Adrian will surely die!" Cole said nervously.
"I know," Avery said and hung up.
40 minutes later, they met in a private room of a restaurant near the hospital.
Cole carefully scanned the room.
"We're only meeting up, why do you have to get a private room? Are you hiding someone?" Cole said and looked under the table.
Avery was amused by his cowardly actions. "You're so cowardly, yet you want to do bad things. If you were to do nothing wrong, you wouldn't have to be afraid of who would be coming after you." "Do you think | would change my mind if you said this to me? Have you ever heard that fortune favors the bold? My failures in the past were because | was a coward, so | have to be more courageous right now." Cole sat down and poured himself swater.
"Cole, remember all the sweet things you said towhen you were pursuingback then?" Avery changed to a lighter topic.

His expressions were cold. "Avery, | beg of you, stop bringing up the past. Don't you find it nauseating to bring it up? It disgusts me. I'm sure it disgusts you too." "Yes, we're all disgusted by it." Avery's h>d": QLR: reached for her bag under the table." Then, who do you think won't find it disgusting?" "It is disgusting for everyone! For Elliot, for my father, for my grandmother! Because they are all evil! " Cole gritted his teeth. He was agitated. "Only my mother is not evil, because she was killed by Elliot!" "I think you need to see a therapist." Avery grabbed her phone and got up from the chair. She walked over to Cole. "Letintroduce you to one! The therapist might help you." "I don't need it!" Cole was apprehensive. " I'm not the sick one. It's this perverted society!" "Is that so?" Avery walked over to Cole and placed a dagger on his neck.
Cole stiffened when he felt the coolness of the blade against his skin.
"Avery, what are you doing!" Cole was frantic. His voice trembled.
"What do you think?" Before coming to the restaurant, Avery specifically went to the supermarket to buy a dagger.
If Henry and Cole could use Adrian's life to threaten her, she could do the sto them! "Cole, don't move. If you dare to move, | won't spare you any mercy!" Avery said and dialed Henry.
Henry soon picked up.
"Henry, your son is in my hands. If you don’t want to lose your son, exchange his life for Adrian's!" Avery enunciated coldly," If | don't see Adrian by six this evening, you can cto pick up your son's dead body!" Henry was bewildered. He did not expect that Avery would do something so unbelievable! Cole's fear instantly turned into humiliation! He fell into Avery's hands. If Henry were to give in to Avery, they would not have any bargaining chips left! Although he was afraid of death and as timid as a mouse, he could not accept living a poor life, so he grabbed Avery by the hand.
"Kill me! Killnow!"
