Elliot and Avery

Chapter 177

Chapter 177 It was the best way to avoid Zoe asking for other types of repayment. Giving a large sum

of money was the best solution.

Zoe was shocked, “Mr. Foster, please don’t. Shea’s condition needs more than one surgery. You should

know that even though her intelligence has improved, it has only improved a little. After she recovers

from this operation, if you want to continue giving her the treatment, there may be a second, third, or

more operations in the future.”

As Elliot listened to Zoe’s explanation, he kept silent. Zoe was here on her annual leave. She might not

have so much time in the future.

“Doctor Sanford, what’s your future plan for your career?” Elliot asked.

Without a doubt, Elliot would want to continue the treatment for Shea. If her IQ could allow her to take

care of herself, that would be the best.

Zoe understood why Elliot asked such a question. He wanted to continue treating Shea but Zoe might

not have the time to stay in Avonsville in the future.

Zoe answered, “Mr. Foster. To be honest, I am at a stage where I feel lost. I am 34 this year but I

haven’t had a relationship, ever. My family is extremely anxious about this. So my career is not the

most important factor at the moment.”

As if Zoe had not expressed herself directly, she wanted to be blunt and said to Elliot that he would just

need to marry her to repay her or for her to continue treating Zoe.

Elliot frowned.

“Miss Sanford, I can introduce a boyfriend to you,” said Elliot after he hesitated for a moment.

Zoe felt a little disappointed. However, she said with a face, “I didn’t expect you to say such things.”

“Because I need you to continue treating Zoe,” Elliot said frankly, “I will never get married again in my

life.”

Zoe looked at Elliot’s handsome face and was attracted by it.

“Mr. Foster, I don’t necessarily need to be married to someone. I think hardly any women who have

been in contact with you could easily fall for other men. Why don’t we be together as a couple? Then

my family won’t bother me anymore and I can concentrate on studying Shea’s case.” Zoe suggested.

Zoe had discovered Elliot’s weakness and that was Shea’s illness. She wondered since Elliot would

spend such a huge amount of money to cure Shea, it was not too much to ask to be Elliot ‘s girlfriend.

Unless Elliot did not want to continue treating Shea. Zoe was forcing him to make a choice. Before

Elliot could find another doctor to treat Shea, he could only continue to be threatened by Zoe.

At the Tate Industries, Avery had just finished her morning meeting. She was back in her office when

her secretary entered the room.

“President Tate, Mr. Locklyn from Golden Technologies is here to see you. He used to work as the Vice

President of our company,” the secretary reported.

Avery did not have a good impression of Shaun. When Tate Industries went bankrupt, Shaun had the

nerve to call her specifically and cursed her to hell. Avery strode into the meeting room.

Shaun stood up and walked to Avery, “Avery, it has been a while since I last saw you. You are getting

more and more beautiful.”

Avery combed her hair with her finger and put it behind her ear. She said concisely, “Why are you here NôvelDrama.Org owns © this.

today?”

Shaun laughed, “You have offered to pay double the salaries in an attempt to recruit all of the former

employees back. It has made Tate Industries the talk of the town. I wonder if I can come back too?”

Avery raised her eyebrows and said, “No.”

The smile on Shaun’s face disappeared. He thought Avery would have considered it and not be so

frank

“I was just asking for fun. I am doing alright at Golden Technologies,” said Shaun as he tried to

recuperate some of his image.

Avery asked, “Then why are you here?”

Shaun stuttered, “I just came to visit.”

Avery mocked, “Do you think Tate Industries is a zoo, or a cafe?”

Shaun got angry and left. Avery went back to her office without being affected by Shaun’s ‘actions. Her

phone rang as she sat down and wanted to drink her water. She put down the glass

of water to pick up her phone.

“Avery! Elliot is in a relationship with the doctor!” Tammy said angrily, “I don’t get it. Wasn’t Shea the

woman he loved the most? Why is he with another person then?”
