His heart twitched at the question and he immediately tried to pull Avery out of the study room.Avery noticed he was trying to hide something and released his hand to walk toward his desk."How's the wedding venue coming? When's the rehearsal? Have you taken any videos today?" She asked as she went to sit down on his leather chair. As soon as she sat down, the document on his laptop came into sight."Ahem!" Her face flushed as she cleared her throat awkwardly."I think your vow is too brief so I'm trying to extend it." A faint pink shade crept up Elliot's handsome-looking face as he reached his arm over to close the laptop.Avery stopped him and gazed up. "I will write it myself! I thought you needed it fast so I didn't put much effort into it. I will be able to write a much longer vow if I try again.""You don't really need a long vow. Just be sincere enough to move me," he stated his minimum requirement.Her brows twitched at the request."Why? Is that so difficult?" He aske

She shook her head frantically with tears in her eyes. "No... Elliot, it's not you... It's really just a nightmare."Seeing how desperately she tried to explain, he nodded and asked, "Tell me then, what nightmare did you have?"She took a deep breath to slowly calm herself down."I dreamt of the day of our wedding. We were standing in the church surrounded by guests and I was really excited. Suddenly, the roof of the church was lifted and following a blinding ray of light, a gigantic black monster appeared and reached its enormous claw out, before taking you away with it..."She couldn't help but start sobbing once again.Elliot believed her and studied her empathetically, "Avery, it's just a dream. It's not real. There's no gigantic monster in this world. Even if there was one, I would kill it before it can take me."She sighed a breath of relief after seeing his face right next to her. "Yeah. That dream just seemed so real, so I couldn't help myself. I feel much better to see y

Avery froze. She had not expected Elliot to have guests over.Elliot had never had the habit of inviting guests over, and because the others weren't speaking out loud, she had not heard them at all before she went downstairs.Avery's face flushed three seconds after being stared at by the others and she immediately turned around to head back upstairs.She had been quiet when she went down the stairs, but extremely loud when she headed back up.Back in the living room, the others looked away."Elliot, that's the woman you are marrying this time?""Isn't that the same woman? Have you forgotten that she almost killed you?""I was wondering why she looked so familiar? She was the same woman from last time? Elliot, you sure are loyal!""It's not like that. That woman gave birth to Elliot's children. Three of them! That's not bad!""But Elliot doesn't like kids!""Hahaha! He doesn't like others' kids, but he's bound to like his own, right?"The others discussed cheerfully in front

A while later, Elliot and Avery walked down the stairs and the others stared sternly at their entwined hands."Let's head out to eat!" Elliot walked towards them. "If we depart now, we will arrive at the hotel in time.""Sure! But is she going out dressed like this?" Someone stared at the way Avery was dressed and said, "Elliot, don't you think that it's embarrassing for you if she walks out dressing like that?"Elliot scanned Avery up and down. She was wearing a sleeping gown that was slightly creased at the bottom and a pair of flat slippers. Though it was a casual outfit, it was also a refreshing one; on top of that, he didn't have a change of clothes for her and she was hungry, so going out to eat became his first priority.Elliot glanced at Avery and did not respond to the man.Avery looked at the man with a smile. "I don't want to trouble everyone. Whoever thinks it's embarrassing to eat with me, you may be excused from eating with us later."The others' wanted to argue, bu

On the way back, the driver asked, "Miss Tate, where are we heading to?""My house." Avery had a full meal, so she was rather sleepy at that moment. She looked at her phone to see if there were any new messages.Mike sent her a few screenshots taken with the drone.[Mike: We mainly scouted the first target area this morning. We found seven units that placed red objects outside their windows. I checked each of them. I didn't find your patient. Will continue in the afternoon!]Avery did not expect that Mike would work so quickly. She replied, [Thank you.][Mike: Are you finally up? I heard that you spent the night at Elliot's last night. Where are you now? If you're still at Elliot's, I'll go there for a free meal!][Avery: I'm not at his house. A group of terrible people came to his house today. I chased them away.][Mike: F*ck. Are you that fierce? They are still his guests!][Avery: Is this your first day knowing me? It's because I knew that they were not good people. Also, on
