"How can you not care? You are being taken advantage of! It's not like you don't have money, or have issues finding another woman! Dump her and you can find other women to give birth to thirty children that share your family name!" Both Elliot and Avery were rendered speechless.
"Yeah! What's with your taste in women? That Avery knows no manners! She didn't even say hi when she saw us just now, who does she think she is?" "She has no manners! Considering what she's done to you so far, she has always been that arrogant! How can you put up with a woman like that?" "Elliot, dump her and we will introduce better women to you. You won’t even have to delay your scheduled wedding day." "Yeah! My sister has always liked you. Not only is she prettier than Avery, but her figure is also perfect! She is definitely going to make you happy!" "It's fine. Avery and | have been in love with each other for many years and | don't want anyone but her," Elliot refused politely.
Around the corner by the stairs, Avery squatted down and heard every word Elliot said. She knew she should feel touched, but all she could think of was all the hideous comments his friends said.

Was it called manners to say hi to them when she was in her pajamas and hadn't even washed up? Someone even mentioned that they wanted to introduce their sister to Elliot and asked him to replace the bride.
"How hateful!" She cursed inwardly and gritted her teeth. If | don't show them, they are going to think that they can just get away with bullying me!" She stood up and stomped on the floor on purpose to let them know that she had been eavesdropping.
As she had expected, the living room fell into silence as soon as the others heard the footsteps.
They looked away after the footsteps disappeared into the distance.
"I thought she went up. Whose footsteps were those?" One of the men said in confusion.
"Is there another woman as rude as her in here?" The other person pointed out that Avery was the one who made the sound.
"Just wait here. I'll go check upstairs." Elliot kept all his laughter in :b'?2UMQ? stood up from the couch.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmUpstairs, Avery looked through Elliot's closet to look for clothes.
She had cover in her pajamas the night before. She remembered putting her clothes here before, but after searching for a while, she could not find any woman's clothing.
‘Whatever. My sleeping gown looks good enough. | just need to put my underwear on, wash up and comb my hair, then I'm ready to head down and retaliate!" Elliot entered the bedroom as she was brushing her teeth.
"Avery, did you rest well?" He walked into the bathroom and asked.
She rinsed her mouth and set the cup down to glare at him. "What's with all those weirdos downstairs?" "What weirdos? Those are my friends from the past. They heard that I'm getting married and cto congratulate me," he replied gently while smiling.
"Stop smiling! | heard everything they said just now!" Avery roared sternly, "Don't think that I've forgotten about who those people are! Those aren't good people! How did you cto know them? Why haven't you cut ties with them? Do you intend on continuing to be involved in illegal acts?" "Avery, it's not what you think. Every country has different laws. Something could be illegal in our country but legal in other countries. If they really were criminals, how could they get here safely?" "But I'm not about to stand idly by while they talk aboutlike that! If you don’t chase them out now, I'm going to show them when | get downstairs," Avery warned.
