Chapter 152
Avery instantly became clear-headed.She had a very strong feeling that the person Elliot was trying to save was probably the woman in his heart and mind.It was impossible for her to wish them happiness.Avery got the car on the road and turned on the air conditioning, filling the car with cold air.She decided to go home and take the kids out for the day.She had yet to have a day out with them since their return to Aryadelle.…"Where are we going to play, Mommy?"Layla and Hayden were both seated in their individual car seats.Both children were obediently seated in the back seat of the car.Avery had not decided where to take the kids.Compared to other children, Layla and Hayden were far more mature."What about the amusement park? There's a huge one in the city that looks like a castle!" Avery suggested enthusiastically.Layla exhaled, then said in a baby-like voice, "It's too hot, Mommy! Can we find somewhere cooler to hang out?""How about a water park, then?" Av

Jenny glanced at the gift box, then said, "I'm getting old, Cole. I want a family and my own kids.""Like you, Jenny, I want a family of my own too. We can try dating, and if everything goes well, we can get married and have kids," Cole said as he stared at Jenny with eager eyes.Jenny lowered her gaze and said, "My father has one request. If we get married, our first child, regardless of gender, has to take Gibson as their last name."Cole's face instantly changed."If you can't accept that, then there's no point in going on with dinner," Jenny said as she picked up her bag. She looked like she was about to leave. Cole grabbed her arm and said, "I'm okay with that, Jenny. The child would be mine no matter whose last name they take. It's just… I think my parents might not be happy about it. How about we have two kids. The first one will take your last name, and the second one will take mine."Jenny felt relieved after hearing Cole's words."Would your parents agree to that?""
Chapter 154
Cole could not help but think of Avery.Avery was abroad, so the woman he was looking at could not be her.After he sent Jenny home that night, Cole happily returned to the old mansion.Olivia noticed the delighted look on her son's face and asked with a smile, "Did everything go well today?""It's in the bag. She brought up kids and said that our first child should take the Gibson last name, so I agreed."Cole saw the change in his mother's expression, then quickly added, "Don't worry, Mom. I'll make sure she's on my side after we're married. I'll get her to willingly hand over everything the Gibsons own!"Olivia felt relieved, then said, "I trust you, Cole. You must have the strength to ignore all these trivia matters if you want to achieve great things!""I've got this!" Cole exclaimed.At 10 p.m. that night, Henry's phone rang.He answered it, only to hear Jenny's father yelling furiously at him on the other end of the line. "Henry! What the hell is your son doing?! How

Hayden did not respond to Layla's words, but a firm conviction materialized in his mind.He had to become stronger and more powerful!He had to protect his sister, his mother, and his grandmother!…On Monday, Avery met Elliot's lawyer.Once the divorce paperwork was dealt with, the lawyer said to Avery, "Miss Tate, I've prepared the contract for the building you want to purchase."Avery was taken aback, then asked, "He entrusted that to you?"The lawyer nodded, then pulled out the contract from his briefcase and said, "Please take a look. What's important is the price."Avery took the contract and looked straight at the asking price.Forty million dollars!That was the amount Elliot had first bought the building for.He would lose money if he sold Tate Tower to Avery at this price!In the span of four years, one could get a decent interest from putting forty million in a deposit account at a bank."What does he mean by this?" Avery asked in confusion."I believe Mr. Fost

Elliot was in his study at the mansion, passing some documents to Zoe. "She is physically weaker than the average woman, and she is autistic, but apart from that, there is nothing wrong with her," said Elliot. "I was hoping that her IQ would be a little higher so that she is a little more aware of the world around her." "Mr. Foster, is your sister enrolled in Angela Special Needs Academy?"Elliot replied, "Yeah.""Can I meet her?" asked Zoe. "I need to talk to her. After that, I will conduct a full medical examination." Elliot raised his head and said, "Sure."Zoe looked at the time. "Let's go!""Miss Sanford, we should discuss payment!"They had not once talked about payment after Chelsea had brought her over. Zoe smiled and said, "Let's not talk about payment yet. I won't charge you a penny if I can't cure your sister. We can talk about payment after I cure her."Elliot noted that the freest service tended to be the most expensive. He preferred that the other party st

The nanny felt awful. She nodded and said, "I will look for her!"Thirty minutes later, Elliot had parked his car at Angela Special Needs Academy. After he parked the car, he and Shea walked to the pink building where Shea was staying at. She was staying alone. She had workers tend to the chores, teach her, and take care of all her medical needs. Elliot opened the door. The room was quiet.He furrowed his brows.The nanny was informed of his arrival and rushed over."Mr. Foster! Miss Shea is missing!" Her eyes were red from crying. "We searched the entire campus, but we couldn't find her! Plus, the security footage is broken and I have no idea where did she go… My Shea… My voice is hoarse from all the yelling. She wouldn't ignore me if she heard my voice."He instantly tensed and clenched his fists!"I told her last night that you hired an amazing doctor. I said she would recover after the surgery… She asked me what the surgery was about… I shouldn't have told her. My ans

Avery rushed back home after the phone call.She could not imagine how her son could have brought home a woman!Hayden would usually ignore strangers.He would never bring someone home.So, who exactly was that woman?What had she done to change Hayden?!Avery arrived home. She saw the woman…She instantly lost her breath!"Avery, you're back!" Laura walked to the door. She noticed how pale her daughter was, and the harshness of her breath. Laura quickly grabbed Laura's arm. "What's wrong? Why do you look so ill?"Avery was staring at Shea as if she could see through her soul!The woman with the hime haircut and the pink puffy dress had always been on her mind!She did not expect to see her in real life!Most unexpected was that her son had brought her home!How had that happened?What was her goal?Was she there for Elliot?Avery had a headache.She could not figure out what was happening because she had divorced Elliot!She was no longer associated to Elliot!That

She had thought of all the scenarios, but never once did she imagine that her rival in love would be atypical. Was it the reason why Elliot would not mention it to her?Avery walked to the sofa in despair and sat down. She buried her face in her hands. It was hard to process."Avery, what’s wrong?" Laura sat next to her daughter and asked, "Don’t you know her? Your conversation with her was so weird."Avery said, "Mom, I have a headache right now. Please leave me alone."Laura said, "Alright. I will tidy the guest room."Avery grabbed her arm and said, "Mom, don't. She knew Elliot back then, and their relationship was unusual… I'll drive her somewhere later."Laura looked horrified.Shea also looked horrified.She was frightened when she heard the word 'Elliot'.She began crying again. She shook her head while she wailed.Laura held her hand and comforted her. She asked, "Don't be scared, do you know Elliot?"Shea shook her head vigorously.If she had not shaken her head,
