Chapter 757
However, there were individual photos of Shea.
At the time, Elliot was also just a four-year-old child. Even if he was smarter than others his age, he still would not
be able to do anything about wanting his sister to be a part of the family portrait
Avery guessed that Elliot’s father was the main reason behind the fact that Shea was left out of the family register.
He could not accept having a mentally disabled child.
Otherwise, he would not leave his own daughter out of their family portraits.
Avery continued to look through the photos. When she turned a new page, she saw a photo of Elliot at five years
old.
Looking at a five-year-old Elliot felt like she was looking at him now, but something did not feel right.
Her heart tightened in her chest as her hands began to tremble.
Elliot did not look like this when she was looking at the earlier photos, but the five-year-old Elliot was obviously him!
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAvery turned back to the earlier pages and tried to find photos of Elliot at four years old, but could not find any!
She clearly remembered seeing individual photos of him before… Where did they go?
She continued to flip the album backwards… There were no individual photos of him at three years old either.
There was only a photo of him at two years old.
Avery pulled out that photo and compared it with the one of him at five years old.
These were… These were clearly not the same child!
Could it be that the absence of photos of him at three and four years old made it look like there was a much larger
difference?
Why were there no photos of him between the ages of two and give?
What happened in between?
At that moment, Mrs. Cooper walked in and said, “I’m going to make dinner now, Avery.”
Avery closed the album shut, then strode to the door and asked, “Isn’t Elliot home yet?”
“Not yet. Stay for dinner!” Mrs. Cooper gazed at her eyes, then asked, “Why are your eyes red? Did you think about
Shea?”
Avery nodded her head.
“Master Elliot would be upset if something happened to either Shea or Robert,” Mrs. Cooper sighed. “Let’s just hope
that Robert can live a peaceful FNtLCY?a healthy life from now on. That way, Shea’s sacrifice wouldn’t go to waste.”
It was completely dark outside by six in the evening.
Mrs. Cooper called Elliot to ask when he would be home, but he did not answer his phone.
“He’s not answering, Avery. You should have something to eat first,” said Mrs. Cooper.” Didn’t you say you still had
to go to the hospital after this?”
Avery responded, then picked up her knife and fork.
Just as she was about to begin dinner, a car horn came through from outside.
Mrs. Cooper rushed to the front door to take a look, then hurried back to the dining room and said, “Master Elliot’s
home, Avery!”
Avery immediately dropped her knife and fork, then walked out of the dining room.
When she arrived at the mansion’s front door, she saw Elliot getting out of the car into the dark night.
His eyes were cold as ice as he gazed at her.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe knew that he would not blame her for what happened to Shea, but she could not help but freeze in that
moment.
She was not sure what she was afraid of.
Elliot approached Avery. Just as he was inches away from her, she unconsciously took a step back.
“Did you come to see me?” Elliot asked coldly as he gazed at her face. “What is it?”
Was he actually asking her why she was there?
Did she need a reason to show up?
“I came to check on you,” Avery said after mustering up her courage.
“I’m fine. You can leave.” Elliot cut her off, then averted his gaze from her.
He walked away and went straight into his room upstairs.
Avery felt like she could hear her heart breaking into pieces!
She pursed her lips as bitterness spread through her entire body. If Elliot despised her this much, then he probably
also did not want Robert anymore!
