Chapter 664
Provoked by Ben’s words, she reminded him, “Ben, this is between me and him.”
“When Tammy came to us for your sake and started shouting like a crazy woman, was I supposed to tell her the
same thing as well?” Ben retorted.
Avery’s blood ran cold at his words as she froze in place.
She had come here to explain to Elliot about what had happened that day in the hotel. She wanted to tell him
whether or not he chose to believe her, because at least she would have no46 regret.
However, everything just seemed so ridiculous now.
How could she forget about34 Tammy?
Tammy had always been so protective of her and she must have gone to Elliot and the others to explain what

If that was the case, there was no need for her to waste her timecd explaining.
“If you think that I’m the woman in the video, then so be it!” She said coldly, “forget I even came here.”
With that, she turned around toge leave.
Elliot grabbed onto her arm. “Avery! I didn’t say you can leave!” He was breathing heavily and continued in a stern
voice, “I want to hear you explain!”
“Elliot, she already said that she has no proof…” Ben said with23 resignation.
“This is between me and her!” Elliot glared at him viciously. “I don’t need anyone to remind me what to do! Even if
my decision is wrong, I will accept the consequences on my own!”
Ben saw the determination in his eyes and left without another word.
After he left, Avery broke her arm free of Elliot’s restraint and in a low voice, she said, ” Tammy already said what I
meant to say. Your friendship with Ben runs deeper than my friendship with Tammy, right? You are making me look
bad.”
Ben must hate her now.
Though she didn’t care about Ben’s thoughts on her, she didn’t feel right that Ben and Elliot’s friendship suffered
because of her.
Elliot mumbled as though he had not heard what she said, “someone tricked you into going to the hotel and found a
woman that looks exactly like you to record her and framed you.”
“Doesn’t it sound fake? Not even movies dare to use plots like this,” she said sarcastically, “its normal that Ben
won’t believe me; as for you, I’ve never dreamed of having your trust.”
His heart froze at her tone.
If he didn’t believe her, why would he stop her from leaving to listen to her?
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAs Avery had said, Elliot and Ben were as close as brothers; still, he fought with Ben. What about her? Apart from
pride, all she had was never-ending prejudice against him.
“Avery, what gives you the right to do this to me?” He swallowed hard as his eyes reddened.” It doesn’t matter if
you are the woman in that video, you have always been on a high horse whenever you are with me!”
“Should I have kneeled and begged for your forgiveness, then?!” Provoked by Elliot’s accusation, she retorted, “you
get to get on a high horse and ask for my explanation, but I’m not allowed to doubt your trust towards me?”
“Elliot, I’ve already explained everything about that video. I’m busy, so I’ll go now,” she spoke quickly before
hurrying away.
Elliot watched as she left and clenched his fists.
‘This time, I won’t let go of my pride and forgive her,’ he thought.
The irritation Avery felt did not ease even the slightest after leaving Elliot’s mansion. She couldn’t even remember
how many times she had to work hard to prove her innocence.
