Chapter 606 When Avery heard Elliot’s voice, a chill ran down her back.
Did Elliot not go to work, or did he wait for her to wake up at home?
Avery awkwardly turned around and looked at him. Elliot was in a suit, with a serious expression on his face.
The sun shone in through the window and fell on him, yet it made him look even more46 aloof.
“I did take your phone to send out an email,” Avery came clean, “I’ll admit that it’s wrong of me to take your phone
without your permission, but you did not talk to me before you boycotted Eric.”
Avery admitted her mistakes, but she did not regret making34 them.
“Avery…”
“Why are you calling me? Are you trying to settle a score with me? I didn’t say I wanted to stay with you last night,
you thug!” Avery raised her chin and retorted, “If I were you, I would shut up and just let this thingcd go.”
Elliot was at a loss of words upon hearing what Avery said.

You should be hungry, right? Come and havege lunch!”
Avery’s stomach grumbled before Avery could refuse. She did not have breakfast that morning, so she was
famished at that moment.
Ever since she got pregnant, her appetite increased tremendously. Even at times, she might feel slightly nauseated,
but that did not affect her appetite23 either.
Elliot at that moment felt as if a bucket of cold water had just been doused over him. All his emotions calmed down.
“Master Elliot, go have some food too! Don’t get angry with Avery. She’s pregnant with a child now and it’s tough
for her too.” After Avery left for the dining hall, Mrs. Cooper went to Elliot and took over the cup of coffee from him.
Mrs. Cooper’s advice worked.
So, what if Avery took his phone and emailed reporters? It was not as if she sent out his nudes. It was just a slight
humiliation. Compared to his embarrassment, the child in Avery was obviously more important.
in the dining hall. They sat opposite each other.
Avery was starving, so she buried her head and ate with vigor.
“Slow down, don’t choke on your food,” Elliot reminded with furrowed brows.
Avery paused for a while before calmly scooping a spoonful of soup and drinking it down.
Perhaps she had enough food already, she suddenly felt like talking to him.
“Elliot, I heard that you have a new staff member that looks like me.”
“Are you talking about Chelsea’s cousin?”
“Do you think she looks like me?” Avery placed the bowl of soup down and calmly looked at him.
Elliot said, “Only on the outside.”
“Oh, do you think she looks better than me?”
Elliot looked up at her. “Have you had enough food already? You’re asking such lame questions.”
“Why are you not answering me? If you say that she looks prettier, I won’t do anything to you. I’m not like you, who

Elliot put down the utensils in his hand. He wiped his mouth with a napkin and said seriously, “If I think that she’s
prettier than you to the point that it’s dazzling, the woman laying next to me in my bed last night would be her and
not you.”
Avery was speechless. He could have just answered the question. Why must he bring up the incident the night
before?
Looking at her scrunched-up brows, Elliot teased, “Now who’s the one who said that they don’t get angry easily?”
“I’m not angry. I just think that this is a little disgusting,” Avery said what was making her unhappy, “Could it be that
they think I attracted you because of my looks? How absurd. I am so much better on the inside.”

Looking at how self-absorbed she was, the coldness in his eyes vanished. He teased in a hoarse voice, “Yes, I was
dazzled by your inner beauty last night.”
Avery had goosebumps upon hearing what Elliot said.
“I’m full. I’ll make a move first.” “I’ll send you off.” Elliot got up and chased after her.
