Ben tugged at Elliot's arm and they walked toward the emergency exit.

"Elliot, you obviously still care for Avery. Why do you always act so irrationally? This, Shea. No matter how beautiful she is, are you sure she can compare to Avery?" Ben wanted Elliot to wake up to reality.

"No one is more important than Shea!" Elliot shouted sharply.

"Did Avery divorce you because of this?" Ben asked him.

"Yes!"

"If that's the case, Avery is not at fault! What is there for you to be sad about? It's you who disappointed her!" Ben rarely spoke to him this forcefully. "As your friend, I won't judge you for who you choose to fall in love with. I just want you—"

"Then like Avery, you too should leave!" said Elliot, cutting him off. "I don't need an outsider meddling in my personal affairs!"

He used the word 'outsider'.

Ben exhaled heavily.

Fine!

If he chose to be so obsessed, he would regret it later!

Avery was single now, but it did not mean that she would stay single forever.
