"Without regret... Good for you! You will die without regret, but what about me?!" The expression on Elliot's face only grew fiercer.
Avery knew that she should be helping Shea, but she could not say a thing. Shea was only taking her own feelings into consideration and had completely neglected Elliot's feelings. He had worked so hard to protect her up till now and watching her kill herself would feel just as painful as getting stabbed in the heart.

What she did not have the courage to confess was that she was not gambling because of how much she wanted a child, but rather because, Wesley's mother had asked for her to give birth to Wesley's child, and Shea had agreed to it. She had to fulfill her promise to others or her conscience would not allow her to rest.
"How are you just like anyone else? You are far from that!" Elliot never had the heart to be too harsh with her, but he knew that she would insist on continuing the pregnancy if he did not present her with the cruel truth. "Normal people have a brain, do you? Normal people don't commit suicide, what about you?" "Stop scolding her!" Unable to stand it any longer, Wesley interrupted him sternly. " It's all my fault for not being thorough with the protection. She has done nothing wrong!" Avery noticed the veins popping on Wesley's forehead. She had never seen him so angry before.
"Elliot, | trust that Wesley is going to talk ssenses into Shea. Let's just go for now! Let them cool down." Avery grabbed hold of Elliot's hand and tried to take him away.
His arm was slightly stiff, and she could sense that he was shivering.
Confronting Shea would not resolve any problems. He was no longer the sElliot who was ruthless and vicious. He could not treat Shea as he had done in the past.
Shea was terrified and hid inside Wesley's embrace. She almost saw Elliot as a horrifying monster. She used to hide behind Elliot whenever she was upset, ;h+< QIS: now, with Wesley in her life, she was not listening to Elliot any longer.

Shea watched as he left and shouted by reflex, "Big Brother! I'm sorry for making you angry!" Elliot would often forgive her when she said that, but now, his heart grew cold, and he did not stop.
Soon, he disappeared from Shea's sight, and she broke down in tears. "Wesley, Big Brother is leaving me... | broke his heart..." Wesley was confused. "Shea, tellwhy you won't listen to him. " Wesley was the one who called Elliot. He wanted to convince Shea to give up on the child, but she would not listen, so he had resorted to calling Elliot. To his surprise, Shea would not listen to Elliot either. Not only did she refuse to listen, but she also began arguing with Elliot.
Wesley could empathize with how Elliot felt and understood why he was furious.
"lI want to give you a child... Wesley! | want this baby!" Shea's voice was beginning to grow hoarse from crying.
"lI don't want a child. Shea, not once have | told you that | like children." In order to make her give up, Wesley said, "Actually, | hate children. | only want you. | don't have the patience and tto take care of a child." "But if | give birth, you won't have to take care of the baby!" Shea explained, "I can take care of it, and so can your mom-" Wesley caught on. "My mom told you that she will help to take care of our baby?" Shea froze.
