Chapter 134 Avery felt Elliot’s body stiffen next to her.

His outfit had taken a few years off, however, people still wound up treating him like an older person.

It must have bothered him.

“I’m Avery’s,”

Elliot began to speak, but Avery interrupted him by grabbing his hand, then explained, “I don’ t know this guy. It’s cold out here. Let’s head to the car!”

At the same time, Tammy pulled the male student out of their way.

Avery threw Tammy a look of gratitude, then helped Elliot back to the black Rolls-Roice.

“Your legs haven’t fully recovered,” she said in a concerned voice. “You shouldn’t be walking around like this.”

“It doesn’t hurt anymore,” Elliot said.

His eyes landed on the bouquet of flowers in Avery’s hand.

“There’s a gift in the bouquet,” he said awkwardly.

“What?” Avery said as she stared at Elliot in shock. “You got me a gift? I didn’t get you anything, though.”

The air around them turned thick with uneasiness.
