Chapter 126 The tension between Elliot and Avery grew drastically.

They were seated next to each other, but it looked like they were on the verge of war.

However, the rage in her eyes made it impossible to deny that she was mad.

Avery had skipped breakfast and lunch, so her stomach was beginning to ache from hunger.

She took over half an hour to finish her food since wolfing it down would only cause indigestion and add to her current discomfort.
