"Nick, I know that no matter what you say, you still care about us. Everybody has their ideal life, mine is to spend my remaining life with Elliot. Even if something were to happen to him, I won't die with him, I will find some way to save him," promised Avery.

"Tsk!"

"I might need your help by then," said Avery.

"Don't you dare involve me!" said Nick as he hung up the call.

Avery put the phone down and laid back down.

Avery should be worried about Elliot's situation after hearing all of that. But to her surprise, Avery was more worried about Elliot falling in love with Ruby.

According to Nick, all men would like a woman like Ruby, beautiful, petite, and adept at making men around her happy. Avery did not know if Elliot would be able to refuse her advances.

Before Avery could think of anything else, a sudden shooting pain shot through her head and she could only curl into a ball.

Avery knew that her condition was worsening, she could tell that just by the rate of her headache.
