Chapter 1067

“What a drag! They share the same violent temper, and I think you’re the one who has to suffer the most

because you’re sandwiched in between them.” Mike patted her on the shoulder. “Would you like to go to

Elliot?”

Avery shook her head. “Even if he’s angry, he won’t lock himself up like Hayden did. I’ll think about that

after we coax Hayden.”

“You’re right. Well, you go and take a break. I’ll get the spare key to go in later.”

When Elliot retumed to the mansion, he saw Adrian pruning the branches in the yard with a pair of

pruning shears.

Meanwhile, Mrs. Scarlet was watering the flowers and plants.

It was a very homely and peaceful scene. When Mrs. Scarlet saw Elliot coming back, she immediately

took Adrian to Elliot. MỊs. Scarlet gave Adrian a wink, and Adrian immediately said obediently, “Hi, Big

Brother.”

Mrs. Scarlet was afraid that Elliot would get angry, so she immediately said, “Master Elliot, Henry came

looking for you a few days ago. He said he couldn’t get to you through the phone.”

Elliot’s jaw clenched tightly as he strode into the living room.

“I suppose you haven’t eaten lunch yet? I’ll whip something up for you right now.” Mrs. Scarlet walked

toward the kitchen immediately after entering the living room.

Elliot sat down on the sofa. Adrian stood uneasily two meters away from him and glanced secretly from

the comer of his eyes.

“If Avery hadn’t stopped me, I would have killed you long ago,” Elliot said, breaking the silence.

Adrian’s face turned pale instantly.

“Are you scared? Would you like to leave now?” Elliot looked at Adrian coldly. “Well, you should!”

Adrian was terrified and immediately ran toward the kitchen. Elliot let out a little snicker when he saw

Adrian flee in fright.

Everyone was afraid of him, so he was not fit to be a good person at all.

He had long gotten used to distancing himself from ordinary people.

After all, being distant from someone was a surefire way to avoid getting hurt.

Adrian was so scared after hearing what Elliot said BVJrWB=4 immediately ran to hide in the kitchen. It

was not until Elliot finished eating and went upstairs that Adrian came out of the kitchen.

“Master Elliot was just teasing you on purpose. He won’t kill you,” Mrs. Scarlet coaxed. “He wouldn’t

have allowed you to stay here if he really can’t tolerate your existence.”

Adrian lowered his gaze. “He scares me.”

“Don’t be scared. He’ll only come back here every once in a while. He’s going to marry Avery soon, and

he’ll live with her after they tie the knot.” Mrs. Scarlet was uneasy when she said that.

Elliot came back rather suddenly, and judging from his expression, he did not look too happy.

Something must have happened again.

At four that afternoon, Henry made a surprise visit. It was as if he found out that Elliot was home and

immediately rushed over.

Mrs. Scarlet went upstairs and reported news of Henry’s arrival to Elliot. “Master Elliot, I don’t think

anything good will come out of Henry’s visit. Should I let him go?” Mrs. Scarlet asked.

Elliot walked out from behind his desk. “He already knows about my relationship with Nathan. Avoiding it

won’t solve the problem.”

He walked downstairs and saw Henry standing in the living room with his hands behind his back.

Henry turned to Mrs. Scarlet and said, “Elliot and I have something private to discuss, so if you’ll please

excuse yourself, Mrs. Scarlet.”

Mrs. Scarlet glanced at Elliot and took her leave.

“Elliot, I came to you today because I wanted to ask you regarding someone,” Henry went straight to the

point.
