"Should I get you another bowl? There is more soup in the pot." Sandra smiled benevolently. "Mom, she can't have too much in one meal." Wesley stopped her. "I'm heading out with Shea.""Your father and I want to see Shea. Why are you so anxious to take her away?" Sandra glared at her son.Shea immediately held Sandra's hand obediently. "Aunt Sandra, did you overhear my call with Wesley?""Hmm, you said you want Wesley to go see your brother." Sandra brought Shea to sit on the sofa. She looked at her kindly. "Do you like Wesley?"Shea lowered her gaze. She panicked a little. Wesley was even more frantic than her. He had come clean to his parents about his relationship with Shea. He told them that if Shea was willing to be with him, he would take care of her for the rest of his life.On the surface, his parents said nothing, but he knew that they do in fact mind this issue. After all, Shea was different compared to an ordinary woman.First, her identity was special, Wesley cou
"Hmm, then let's wait until he gets discharged!" Wesley looked at the time. "Why is he asleep so early? Has he had lunch yet?""Not yet! He wants to sleep, so just let him sleep!" Avery was a little hungry. "Let's head out to have some food. The caretaker and bodyguard are here to look after him. He will be fine.""Hmm."They came out of the hospital and found a restaurant nearby.When they were ordering food, Wesley took the menu and explained to Shea every dish, asking her what she wanted to eat.His gaze was gentle and his tone patient.Avery took a cup of water and drank some of it. "Wesley, do your parents know about you and Shea?""Yes. My mother spoke with her when Shea came to look for me today.""What is their reaction to Shea?" Avery was afraid that Shea would feel aggrieved being in Wesley's family."Avery, they treat me well," Shea took the initiative to say, "Aunt Sandra said that she likes me a lot."Avery smiled in relief, "That's good.""If Shea and I are tog
"Go home and care for Robert, let Mrs. Cooper rest." Elliot placed his utensils down. He picked up the bowl of soup with his left hand, showing Avery that he had no problems eating.His left hand was a comminuted fracture. He had already rested for more than a week. It should not have much problem at that moment. "Then, I'll head back first. Call me if there is anything." Avery leaned in and kissed Elliot on the forehead before leaving the room quickly.Elliot was stunned.Mike touched his nose and teased, "Get a room! You literally treat Chad and me as if we're not here!"Chad continued chiming in, "If Mrs. Cooper was not sick, I'm guessing Avery won't return home."Mike walked over to the guest bed and sat down, looking at Elliot drinking his soup casually in bed. "Elliot, I think you have changed. Avery was here just now, so I was embarrassed to say it out loud." "What do you mean?" Elliot looked at him."Let's talk. I'm now Tate Industries' Director of Operations, talking
Mike would surely not pass on the message to Avery. If he were to tell her, which then caused her to break up with Elliot, Chad would whip him to death.He would just observe Elliot's actions for the next few days. If Elliot treated Avery badly one day, he would immediately let Avery see Elliot for his true colors.Chad drove and handed the documents to the lawyer's office.The lawyer accepted the documents from him and said apologetically, "Chad, thank you! I initially wanted to head over in the afternoon, but something came up last minute. I just finished dealing with it.""It's fine. It's not far by car." Chad's focus was still on the hospital, so he politely exchanged pleasantries before leaving.Mike's terrible temper would not know restraint no matter who he was facing. Chad was afraid that he would argue with Elliot.Elliot was a patient at that moment, how could he stand Mike's torments/Chad was on the road. When he almost reached the hospital, the lawyer called him on
"I don't need you here." Chad placed the fruits down and pushed him out. "Right, send dinner over tonight.""What's going on with you? I said I'm not leaving."Chad did not want to deal with him, so he pushed him out of the door and quickly returned to the ward and closed the door shut."Are you guys in a fight?" Elliot sensed the change in the atmosphere.Chad said, "He must have said something to make you angry, right?""No." Elliot looked at the fruits that he bought. "Why did you buy so many fruits?""Don't you need fruits to supplement vitamins when you're sick?" Chad opened the bag of fruits and took the envelope out of it. "Mr. Foster, I accidentally took your paternity test results."Chad had considered whether to hide this from Elliot or not. He could have just sneakily placed the paternity test results back in the drawer when Elliot was not paying attention.In the end, he decided to be honest.Elliot was not an idiot. He knew that this matter could not be kept a sec
Avery told Elliot that she would pick him up at the hospital that day, but she did not come.The driver replied, "Avery is sick."Elliot furrowed his brows when he heard what the driver said. Avery got up that morning and felt extremely dizzy. She thought that it was because she did not sleep well, but after breakfast, her body temperature was on the higher side.She took a thermometer to measure her temperature. Sure enough, she had a low fever.It was quite windy that day. This was one of the reasons she decided not to head out. The other reason was that she was afraid that she would pass on her sickness to Elliot.Elliot had just recovered. His body was still weak. His immune system was also slightly weaker.When the driver went to pick Elliot up, Avery tidied up the guest room for him.Before she recovered, they could only sleep in separate rooms. Thankfully that although she was sick, Mrs. Cooper has recovered. Although Mrs. Cooper said that she was the one who passed on
Lilith was in yoga wear. She was sweating profusely. When she saw Ben, she was stunned."What? Why are you so surprised to see me?" Ben quickly measured her up while talking to her.After not seeing her for such a long time, he felt as if she had lost weight. Her entire aura has changed."The security system at home is broken." Lilith took a step back, letting him in."Oh, if it's broken, why did you not get people to come and fix it?" Ben entered and changed his shoes by the door."No one visits usually.""If you didn't know it was me, how do you dare to open the door?" Ben was stunned at how low her defenses were."I know it's you! Hayden told me this morning that you were coming over." Lilith walked over to the living area and kept her yoga met."Then, why were you so surprised to see me?" Ben walked to the living area and saw her tidy up."I'm not surprised to see you," Lilith said calmly, "I'm just shocked by the speed at which you are aging. The last time I saw you, you
Ben's roar was deafening. Lilith had never considered Ben intimidating, but she shuddered when she saw him in a rage. "Ben, my aunt never eats dinner." Hayden said, breaking the silence, "Even if she does, she only eats fruit at night." Ben was speechless. The corners of his mouth twitched, and his face reddened. Finally, an embarrassed cough escaped from his mouth. Lilith couldn't help but laugh. "Fine, I'll go with you!" Ben was too embarrassed, so he kept walking with Hayden and kept asking about Hayden's studies. Hayden was annoyed by his questioning, so he walked to Lilith's side. Ben had to walk side by side with the two of them. "Lilith, you look so thin and athletic now; there is no need to skip dinner. You can eat less in other meals." Ben finally summoned up the courage to speak to her. "I want to eat too, but my boss won't let me. You go tell him." "Who is your boss?" "My manager." "Who is your manager?" Ben asked. "Do you intend to
