"I don't think you're going to like what I say, Avery, but I'm going to say it anyway. I think this will be good for you." Tammy lowered her voice slightly. "If Ruby and that child are both dead, then there won't be any obstacles between you and Elliot anymore. Elliot probably went to Ylore just to collect their bodies. After all, the Goulds have no other relatives."

Avery did not tell Tammy that the reasons for divorcing Elliot were not simply because Elliot went to Ylore. It was also because her hopes for him to come and visit her when she lost her vision were dashed when he decided to fly to Ylore regardless.

"I've already decided, Tammy. I really have." She reiterated her decision to Tammy.

"I see. You're serious about it. I guess it shouldn't come as a surprise then that Mike has been with you all this time. You must have felt really sad these past few days. Why didn't you tell me?" Tammy regretted that she could not support and console Avery when the latter was at her saddest.
