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
In Aryadelle, everyone came to Starry River Villa in the evening with gifts to celebrate Elliot's discharge from the hospital and the reconciliation between Elliot and Avery. After Avery took two doses of medicine, the fever subsided, and she was not feeling so dizzy. She still put on a mask when Tammy came over, though. Tammy was pregnant now and couldn't afford to get sick. "Avery, you must have been too tired recently. When people are too tired, they tend to get sick." Tammy said, "I also caught a cold once before I got pregnant. I also took some medicine. I asked the doctor if the child would be affected. The doctor said that everything was fine since there was no bleeding." "All right. Why didn't Jun come with you?" Tammy heard the question, and the calmness on her face disappeared. "My mother-in-law was hospitalized because I annoyed her too much, and her blood pressure was too high. Jun went to take care of him. I haven't seen him for three days, and I suspe
She smelled the strong scent of wine in his breath. He had been drinking. He looked at her with slightly drunk eyes and said frankly, "I was in a good mood today, and I drank a small glass of wine." "You only stopped taking your medications today..." "Yes, I stopped taking the medicine today, so I drank a little. "He said, wrapping his arms around her waist, "I'm going to sleep with you tonight." "Okay, you've already been drinking; why should you be afraid of the flu?" She teased him, "Did no one will stop you from drinking?" Elliot looked innocent. "No. They drank with me!" Avery was speechless. "Don't be angry. The champagne I drink was not high in alcohol content." "It's still wine! You start messing around once I take my eye off you. Fortunately, I didn't let you go to work. If you were allowed to go to work, I don't know what would happen to you." Elliot looked at her angry expression, leaned down, and kissed her forehead. "You've been chatting wi
The sun shone through the window and lit up the vast living room. A man and a woman were hugging each other and sleeping soundly on the sofa. Suddenly, a rapid and harsh ringtone sounded from the mobile phone. Lilith opened her eyes first. It was her phone that was ringing! She wanted to reach out to find the phone, but her arm was bound by something, so she couldn't move. She opened her eyes immediately, and after seeing what was restraining her, she immediately raised her feet and kicked Ben off the sofa! "Ah!" Ben exclaimed, then opened his eyes. "You bastard!" Lilith jumped off the sofa and scolded Ben, "Think about what happened last night!" Ben looked blank. Last night, he invited Hayden and Lilith to dinner. He ordered a bottle of wine and drank it alone. Hayden ate his kid's meal, and Lilith ate some fruit salad. He felt bored drinking alone, but he didn't want to end the meal so quickly, so he drank one cup after another. Finally, he beca
