Although they fought terribly on the surface, Avery had huge confidence.

"I don’t need to feel awkward. If it wasn't for Gary, Elliot and | would have long reconciled.” Avery took a sip of water." Have you ever seen someone who just finished surgery and immediately registered for marriage?" "Hmm, but why does Elliot obey Gary so much?" Jed did not understand. "You said that Gary is not a good person, doesn’t Elliot know this?" Avery was silent for a while before explaining, "This is complicated. Gary helped him a long tago. A good person and a bad person are not just purely defined by law. Sometimes, even if we think a person is bad, that person might be good to others.” "I understand. Elliot won't be in danger being with Gary." "No." Avery received quite a lot of information from Nick that day. "Gary is a dangerous man. If Elliot stays with him, even if he doesn't do anything to Elliot, his opponents and enemies will." Jed completely understood what Avery meant. Elliot had entered a dangerous circle. Avery wanted to get him out of it.
It was not only to get Elliot to break up with Ruby and return to her. It was also for his future.
At Gould Mansion, Gary invited Elliot and Ruby for dinner.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIt was a feast. After they took their seats, Gary poured a glass of wine. When he was passing it to Elliot, he remembered that Elliot had just undergone surgery, so he placed the glass of wine in front of his daughter.
"You drink on his behalf." Ruby smiled coquettishly, "Dad, you treat Elliot better than you treat me. Who is your child?" "I'm treating Elliot well because of you too, right? Your brothers are all useless. I'm old. We can only rely on Elliot in the future,” Gary said and looked at Elliot. "Why was Nick looking for you today?" Elliot said, "He asked when Ruby and | are holding a wedding. He has prepared a gift for us." "Oh. How nice. Ever since Mickey ?f$> XNV? Jim died, he has refused to seeanymore," Gary said, "We seven brothers used to be so close to each other. It's saddening to see what has happened to us." "Let the past stay in the past." Elliot took an empty glass and poured himself swine. "I'll drink a little with you." "Okay!" Gary raised his glass and clinked it with Elliot's. "The last tBen and Avery cover, they thought I killed you. How ludicrous. No matter who [ Kill, | won't kill you. | have always treated you like a brother. Now that you're marrying my daughter, we're closer than ever!" "I'm meeting Ted and Edward next week. If you don't want to meet them, | can go alone, " Elliot said.
"I'll go with you! I'm afraid that you might not be able to handle them going alone.” Gary furrowed his brows and said seriously, "They think that | killed Mickey and Jim Now, they are joining forces, trying to get rid of me. Hehe. If it were not for our past relationship, | would have long killed them! Now that they have found other investors, they think that they can climb over my head. How infuriating!" Elliot took a sip of wine. He did not say anything.
"Although I pray that this can be settled peacefully, if they decide to go all out, I'll do so too! In Ylore, no one can touch me! The worst-case scenais everyone dies, but they don't have the guts to do it!" Gary poured Elliot swine. "They all know that you are with me. As long as you don't leave Ylore in the future, | can guarantee your safety.” "I'l try to settle this as soon as possible." Elliot couldn't possibly keep staying in Ylore. He had to get all that he lost in Aryadelle back.
"| feel relieved to hear you say that!" Gary looked at the ambition in Elliot's eyes. He was a little worried. If Elliot could always obey him, that would be best.
