Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAvery had already received a call from Wesley, where he informed her that Elliot had regained consciousness.
She did not wish for the sthing to happen again, which was why she presented a card to Sebastian as soon as she saw him. "There are 2.1 billion in there. You can go to the bank to check," she said with a dark expression.
He accepted the card with pursed lips and felt like he was at a crossroads.
"What's wrong?" Sensing that something was wrong, Sebastian asked, "Did your dad ask for something else?" Avery knew that Dean would not give up so easily. "Does he want our companies or..." "He wanted money." Sebastian gazed up and met her eyes. "He wants 3 billion." She gasped and paled in an instant. "Where am I going to get that much money? Did he really think that Elliot would agree to such nonsense?! He must be daydreaming or something!" "I know Elliot wouldn't, but I can't talk my dad out of this either. If I ask him to lower the price, he would think that I'm siding with you..." "I can't pull that much money out of thin air, Sebastian. Take this money back to your dad for now and tell him to leave Elliot alone for the tbeing. I will figure something out about the extra he asked for.

"Alright," he said, before asking curiously," How's your team research going?" "It's going nowhere." She frowned. "They weren't a part of the research before after all." "Hm... Hey, buya cup of coffee!" he blurted out.
She stared at him in confusion. "Do you really think I'm in the mood for coffee?" "Maybe I can slip you a little hint," he offered generously. "I don't really want to see you go to war with my dad." "Alright. My treat, then." The two sat down at a cafe nearby.
Sebastian ordered a cup of coffee and sipped leisurely, while Avery glanced at him with her phone in hand.
"Is Elliot going to be alright?" "He's not in any critical danger at the moment." Avery set her phone down and whispered, "I thought you were going to givea hint. What is it?" "Can't my ? If I tell you now, you are liff at least wait until I finish going to turn heels and leave," he said bitterly. "I feel used." "Playing the victim card, are we?" she mocked. "If it wasn't for your dad, our lives wouldn't be in such a mess." "It's entirely my dad's fault. Angela was the one who picked Elliot." "Your dad knew about it the entire time. They were partners in crime!" "Sigh. That's true." "So? What's the hint? Sebastian, you know that I'm in a hurry. I can buy you coffee after everything settles down." Worried about Elliot, Avery struggled to remain calm. S "There's this guy, Oliver Raven, in the team. He didn't really want to join but my dad's offer was too tempting. Look for him when you have the tand see if you can find an angle through him!" Avery memorized the nand started asking her friends about Oliver as soon as she exited the cafe.
