Chapter 1046

Why was Avery’s phone switched off? Did something happen to her or did her battery run out?

She said that she was picking a gift for him. It would not have taken two hours, right?

Elliot could not get to her, so he could only dial her bodyguard.

The bodyguard picked up his call.

“I didn’t hear Miss Tate’s phone ring!” The bodyguard said, “She’s at the hospital, but she’s not sick.
Someone was admitted to the hospital and she’s with them now.”

“Who is it?” Elliot’s voice sounded tight.

The bodyguard hesitated for a while before saying, “It’s not for me to say, but it’s a man.”

“Even if you don’t tell me, I’ll find it out.” Elliot’s voice darkened. He said sternly, “Tell me!”

The bodyguard swallowed his saliva. He said hesitatingly, “T-The patient is called A-Adrian White.”

When Elliot heard Adrian’s name, coldness rose in his heart. Avery went to be with Adrian, which was
why she did not come edfor the date.

Also, she lied to him saying that she was picking a gift for him. Turns out, she was with Adrian.

Elliot hung up and sat on the chair.

The skies suddenly started to rain. He saw the weather report that day. It stated that it was a cloudy day
but did not say it would rain, which was why he arranged it on the balcony.

A server came over with an umbrella. The server said, “Mr. Foster. It’s raining. Let’s go in!”



Elliot did not want to move. He only wanted to know if Avery would still come that night or not.

“Mr. Foster, when is Miss Tate coming?” The server said, “Why don’t you have some food first, when
Miss Tate is here, you can…”

“Leave,” Elliot said coldly, “Don’t bother me!”

At that hospital, after the call with Elliot, the bodyguard returned to the ward.

Adrian was suddenly vomiting violently. Avery was helping him, patting his back while passing him
tissue.. The bodyguard furrowed his brows. Adrian looked miserable if no one were to care for him.
However, if Avery was not there, the nurse would care for him too.

At that thought, the bodyguard went over to Avery. He reminded her, “Miss Tate, don’t you have a date
with Mr. Foster tonight?”

“Hmm. How did you know?” Avery was a little frantic. She should go look for Elliot, but she could not
leave Adrian in that state.

“You’re dressed up, so you must be going on a date, right?” The bodyguard said, “Why don’t you go. I’ll
look after him. He’ll be fine.”

Avery hesitated for a while before saying, “Okay. Then I’ll leave now.”

Upon saying that, Adrian immediately held her arms tightly. “Avery, I feel terrible. Am I dying

Adrian felt as if he was vomiting his internal organs out. The pain made him feel terribly worried. He was
not afraid of death. He only did not want Avery to leave. Avery made him feel comforted.

With her by his side. Even if he vomited to his death, he would be able to bear through it. If she left, he
would feel as if he was leaving this world the very next second.



“You won’t die. In two days, you’ll be much better,” Avery consoled him, “Even if I’m gone, the doctors
and nurses will care for you.”

“Take me with you…” Adrian’s eyes were teary. He pleaded to her, holding her tightly.

“You need to be on drips right now. You can’t leave,” Avery said troublingly, “Adrian, once you’re better,
I’ll take you away. You need to stay in the hospital right now. I have something going on tonight. I must
leave. I’ll come to see you tomorrow morning.”

Avery did not forget about her date with Elliot. If Adrian was not in such a serious condition, she would
have long gone for her date.

Adrian kept vomiting from time to time. Seeing him in such a miserable state, she found it hard to leave.
However, she had dragged on for long enough. She had to look for Elliot now.
