She lifted her head and saw the blurry tail lights of the Rolls-Roice in the darkness.
Was that Elliot’s car?
She wiped the tears off her face, calmed herself down, and walked toward the house.
She saw the car parked in the courtyard when she arrived.
She waited outside in hopes of going in after Elliot had gone to his room.
Her eyes stung. She looked up at the stars shining brightly in the night sky.
It was a beautiful spring night.
Before she knew it, she had been standing outside for an hour.
The driver had already moved the car into the garage.
The lights in the living room were still on, but there was nobody in sight.
Avery felt normal, so she walked slowly into the house.
On the veranda on the second floor, Elliot, dressed in a grey robe, was sitting in his wheelchair. The last dregs of wine sat at the bottom of his wine glass.
He had watched Avery the entire hour that she had stood outside in the cold.
He could not figure out the thoughts that would lead her to spend an entire hour out in the cold. She was so still that she could have easily blended in with the trees that stood next to her.
Elliot had met countless intelligent minds in his lifetime because they were the only people worthy enough to stand by his side.
However, Avery was an exception.
He did not consider her bright because she had provoked him despite knowing what kind of man he was.
She was an extremely foolish woman.
Seeing her miserable, however, affected his mood in a peculiar way.
It was a feeling that he had never felt before.

Avery looked toward the open window of the Portia. She glanced at the driver, and he glanced back at her.
She was taken aback. Did she not tell him not to pick her up?
What was going on?
She walked over to the parked car as the driver opened the door to the backseat for her.
“What is it?” Avery asked in a low voice.
Since Tammy was there, the driver was cautious.
“Let’s talk in the car.”
Avery’s heart tightened in her chest.
“Just go if you’re busy, Avery! Let’s go out some other time,” Tammy said.
Avery nodded and said, “It’ll be my treat next time.”
Tammy waved her hand and said, “There’s no need for that. Call me if you need anything!”
The car sped off once Avery was seated.
“Did you do something to make Master Elliot mad again, Madam?” asked the driver.
Avery raised her brows and answered, “I didn’t. Did he ask you to pick me up?”
“Yes,” he said. “You better prepare yourself!”
Avery’s heart raced in her chest as she racked her brain.
No way!
She was on campus the whole day. She had not even seen Elliot, let alone anger him.
She went through all the events of the past few days, but she did not have a clue.
It was not until her head began to throb in pain that she stopped thinking about it.
They arrived at the house at five forty in the evening.
When the car came to a halt, Avery got down.
She changed into her house slippers and noticed Elliot sitting alone in the living room.
He was wearing a green shirt with the sleeves rolled up, exposing his muscular forearms.
The sapphires on his cufflinks shone brightly.
He was sitting comfortably on the couch, exuding the charm and arrogance of a long-reigning, king.
