Avery could see that Elliot was not doing well.
"The inpatient unit is that way, let's go!" said Aaron, the bodyguard, breaking the silence. He had noticed that they had not moved.
The three of them headed to the inpatient unit.
When they reached the neurology department, Avery said to Elliot, "Get your bodyguard to pay the bill." Elliot immediately got his card out and handed it to the bodyguard. After the bodyguard left, Avery led Elliot into a doctor's office.
There were two doctors in the office. They were rather surprised to see Avery and Elliot entering the room.

Avery took Elliot into the office washroom and shut the door.
"Didn't | tell you to decline their request? Why did you not listen to me?" growled Elliot.
"Why should | refuse Gary treatment?" Avery had her own reasons for wanting to treat Gary. "Nick told me that once Gary is dead, you will no longer have to fulfill your promises to him." Elliot was stunned by her bold idea. "Are you going to take this as an opportunity to kill Gary?" "Can't I? " Avery raised her eyebrows. "I could do it secretly. | swear no one will realize it was me." Elliot was speechless. "Do you think that they are chivalrous gentlemen who can be reasoned with?" Avery was stunned.
"If Gary accidentally dies, his men will cut you to pieces! They will do it irrespective of whose fault it is," said Elliot, rejecting her idea.
"If I don't kill him, am | going to treat him? What a joke..." "Why are you in a hospital gown?" Elliot stared at her hospital gown. "Are you sick?" She blushed nervously. She remembered the lie she had told Mike and said, "A minor gynecology procedure." Unease flashed in Elliot's eyes. "When they come here, tell them that your stomach hurts. Tell them you can no longer help them. If Gary wakes up and sees you, he will surely remember Christopher's death.
He won't be grateful. Do you understand?" "Oh...” Avery looked down but soon looked at him again. "You promised him that you will never leave Ylore. You also promised him that you will have a child with Ruby. All these are against your wishes, right?” Avery looked at Elliot's bobbing Adam's apple. Fear filled her, ;g"=XNU< she suddenly grew afraid of hearing his answer. She did not want to hear his answer.
"Elliot, if you don’t let me kill Gary, then you have to find a way to kill him." Her gaze turned cold and her voice even colder. "You have to give me an answer. Am | to do it, or are you going to do it?” "Are you forcing me?" Elliot furrowed his brows tightly.
If she were to kill Gary, her friend, bodyguard, and she, would all die.
"Yes, I'm forcing you to make a choice." Avery thought she was going mad. If she did not get him to come to a decision, life would drive her mad. "Either that or you don't care whether | live or die! How does Gary wanting to kill me have anything to do with you? Are trying to lie about the feelings you have for me? Do you think your new wife is oblivious to all your lies?" Looking at how aggressive she was being, Elliot's gaze turned cold. He gritted his teeth.
Knock! Knock! Knock! Someone was knocking on the door.

Aaron had returned from paying the bills, but he did not see them. He asked around and a doctor told them that they were in the washroom.
"Why would two adults be in the washroom? Even if they were scheming and up to something, they would not do so in the washroom!" he thought.
Squeak! The door opened.
Avery's back was bent. She looked like she was in pain, and Elliot had to help her out of the washroom.
"What's happening?!" Aaron was stunned." Dr. Tate, are you alright?" Avery gasped and stuttered, "I-l... don't... think... | can... treat... Gary anymore... b-because... I... am sick... too."
