If Avery had an ounce of dignity left, she would end the call immediately.

As expected, Avery suddenly became aware when she heard Zoe's voice.

"I'm sorry for interrupting your date. I'll accept the gift, but I won't give you anything in return. Please don't give me anything ever again."

She hung up the phone before Elliot could respond.

The sound of the call being terminated made Elliot feel as if his heart had been pierced. He felt a dull ache in his chest.

"I heard that Avery locked herself in her car last night. Is she alright now?" Zoe asked.

"She's fine." Elliot was disinterested and did not want to discuss Avery. "You mentioned there was a doctor you wanted to recommend. Who is it?"

Zoe pulled out a business card from her bag and handed it over to Elliot.

"I heard that this is Aryadelle's top psychiatrist. Her appointments are booked up until next year. I used my connections and managed to get you a slot for next Wednesday morning. You can take Shea to see her, then."
