Elliot had written the passwords to his accounts for her in the past.
The paper was inside her bag, and she unwittingly brought the piece of paper with her when she came to Bridgedale.
It was quite unfortunate that it was the only personal item Elliot had left her.
The things he bought for her did not count because they did not have his mark.
She dried her face quickly and went out of the bathroom.
After finding the piece of paper, she stared at his handwriting and recalled the scene when he handed it to her.
Back then, he had given her more than just his account number and password— he
had given her his heart along with it.
It was because he had sacrificed everything that he could not come to terms with the fact that she had kept things from him.
She raised her head and exhaled heavily.
The doorbell rang all of a sudden.
She put the paper under the pillow and walked out of the bedroom.
The surveillance screen at the entrance showed Wesley's face.
"Okay. I met the doctors today
"I know. It's just a little difficult to find him right now. He's determined to avoid me, and he wants me to regret it for the rest of my life..." Avery lowered her gaze. "Mike asked me if I regret it, and I stubbornly told him that I didn't. But when I woke up today, I realized I regret it very much. It was so easy not to make him angry. I could've just told him everything and let him decide..."
"Blame me," Wesley said apologetically. "I told you not to tell him about Shea."
"How can I blame you, Wesley? Shea didn't want us to know about her situation, and what you did was merely respecting her wishes." Avery looked at him and said earnestly, "He told me a few times to just focus on taking care of my family and don't be so concerned with other people. I just didn’t take his words to heart."
"Don't regret it anymore, Avery." Wesley saw her remorse and felt sad too, but being trapped in such emotions would only make things worse. "Adrian can be discharged after a week of hospitalization. If you return him to Henry, it might not be easy to get Elliot's shares back."
Avery nodded. "I don't plan on returning Adrian to them."
