After Avery got into the car, Wilson did not bother asking where she wanted to go and sent her home straight away.
"Miss Tate, you look so tired. You should rest at home!"
Avery touched her face and mumbled, "It's all happening too fast. I've never expected things to turn out this way. It's just strange, but I can't seem to put my finger on which part of it didn't make sense."
"It is strange. I have been checking the news and all the netizens have gone crazy over this." Wilson glanced at the clock and said, "You should go take a nap. You said that Elliot will be home at night, right?
When he comes home, you two will have to have a long talk and you can't talk to him if you are exhausted." "Do you think I was wrong, Wilson?" she asked.
"No, you are not, Miss Tate, but neither is Elliot. Fate just loves to torture people is all, " Wilson consoled her. "If I know that you are at fault here, Elliot should know that as well."
Avery felt the urge to chuckle at the clumsy consolation.
If Elliot was still willing to come home, it meant that at the very least, he did not resent her. Hence, she didn't have to be overly stressed about it.
She went back to her room for a nap, and by the time she woke up, the sky had turned dark.
She found her phone to check on the time and realized that it was half past six.
"No wonder I feel kind of hungry," she thought.
Mike hastily went after Chad.
Avery wanted to know how Elliot felt, and what he planned to do now. Chad was the only one who would know his plans, so she needed Mike to be close with Chad.
After Mike and Chad left, the three of them were the only ones left in the spacious living room.
"Hayden, let's go eat!" Avery went to Hayden and took his hand.
Hayden pulled away and stared at Elliot sternly. "If you want to die, just get on with it already. Stop messing our lives up!"
