"That's her," answered Elliot.

"Got it! I'll remember her name!" responded the captain.

Back at the Foster mansion, Avery was sitting at her desk and using her laptop to sign into her social media accounts so she could post a status update about her stolen phone.

She continued to sit at the desk in a daze after that.

Maybe it was a good thing if the thief wiped out everything in her phone and sold it off.

What she dreaded was a stranger invading her privacy and going through her phone.

She placed her hand on her spinning head and sighed heavily.

If she knew this was going to happen, she would never have left the neighborhood.

She could have just taken her walk in the neighborhood itself!

Avery got up from her desk and went into the bathroom.

After her shower, she climbed into bed and lay down.

She had to get a new phone and number the next day.

She tossed and turned in bed, u

Holding back tears, Avery turned in anger and stormed out of the station.

She did not sign the release papers, nor did she take her phone back from Elliot.

Elliot signed the papers and left the station.

On the car ride home, he passed her phone to her and said in a low voice, "I didn't go through it."

Avery took her phone and her breathing was heavy as she said, "But you already know what's inside."

"Are they important? Those photos…"

Avery gritted her teeth and warned herself not to lose her temper with Elliot.

Her hand clenched around her phone as she asked, "If I told you that the baby you had forced me to abort wasn't Cole's but yours… Would you feel guilty at all?" 

Elliot turned his head and glanced at her.

Avery's expression was serious, and it did not seem like she was kidding.

He gulped and responded in a hoa

Avery froze in her tracks.

When she realized that her phone had just been snatched away, she began to run in the direction that the thief had sped off.

However, she stopped running when she remembered that she was pregnant and made her way back toward the house.

Mrs. Cooper was on the phone with Elliot about an hour later.

"Master Elliot, Madam Avery's phone was stolen when she was out on a walk earlier. I took her to the station to file a report, but we were told that it was nearly impossible to get the phone back. Madam Avery's eyes were so red when we got home. She said that there was a lot of important information on her phone. She's crying by herself in her room right now."
 
She could not allow things to remain as they are, and she thought that if Elliot knew about the matter, he might be able to use his connections to retrieve Elliot's phone. 

In truth, she had never confirme

The sound of frantic footsteps came from the hallway outside, followed by a k
