This was why Elliot was back late the night before. He took the photos back with him but left them in his car. He did not take them out.He walked over to the trunk and took the photos out. He held the photos and went to his study room.He turned on the light and looked at the baby's ultrasound photo carefully. Then, he picked up the family photo he had on his desk.He even took Layla's photo and compared it to the baby's. They looked similar.Elliot placed the photo down and clutched his forehead.His dream of a peaceful and quiet life had been certified as comical.On the other side, Avery had just finished visiting her mother's grave before heading to Mike's.Ever since Avery and Elliot reconciled, Mike had moved out of Starry River Villa. Only when Avery or Elliot was not around, would he return for a short stay."What's going on?" Mike had a head full of unkempt hair. He poured her a cup of water. "I still have some milk, but it's cold. You look a little pale. You should d
Avery was so wrongfully mistreated. Mike had to give Elliot a proper scolding. If not, he would not be relieved of the anger.Also, he had to make sure what Elliot's feelings for Ruby were!If Elliot decided to get all tangled up with Ruby, Mike had to convince Avery to get a divorce!He dialed Elliot and the call was soon picked up."Avery said that she went with you to the cemetery. Where are you all now?" Elliot sounded as calm as usual."She said that she took me to the cemetery?" Mike was stunned."Didn't you go with her?" Elliot was stunned too."Hehe. Elliot, the cemetery is not the main issue. The main issue is that she caught wind of your rendezvous with Ruby last night!"Mike yelled angrily, "What the hell are you planning to do? If you don't want to be with Avery, divorce her already! Don't lead her on and have an affair outside!""She told you about it?" Elliot did not expect that his suspicions would come true. "I did see Ruby last night. I was about to tell Aver
If Avery were to stop Elliot from seeing Ruby and her child, it would be tragically inhumane!"Mike, the baby looks a lot like Layla," Elliot explained his reason. "I can show you the photo, but you can't tell Avery. I'm afraid that she will be sad.""Hehehe! I'm not going to see them! You have screwed things up so badly, of course, you'll find an excuse for yourself! You're barking up the wrong tree! I'm with Avery! If you don't cut off ties with Ruby and that baby, Avery will do it sooner or later! You cannot have the best of both worlds!"Hearing Mike's reprimands, Elliot swallowed his words.Even Mike already had such a huge reaction. If Avery knew about it, her reaction would surely not be any smaller than his.Since Elliot stopped talking, Mike slightly regained his sensibilities. "Did you say that the child looks like Layla? Are you sure you're not joking? How could your child with Ruby look like Layla?""Ruby showed me the child's ultrasound photo," Elliot explained."Oh
After Avery had been woken up by the noise, she could not fall back asleep. She had been extremely depressed.Elliot saw Avery coming out. He immediately walked over to her and hugged her in his arms."Avery, I'm sorry," Elliot apologized and hugged her tightly.Her eyes reddened. She looked at Mike from the corner of her eyes. No matter what she said, it was not good to talk there.She pushed Elliot away. She wanted to talk to him in a different place, but Elliot did not let her go."Let's talk in the room," Avery said in a low voice while looking at his guilty-looking handsome face.Elliot took a deep breath and held her arm, taking her to the room. They entered the guest room and shut the door.Mike furrowed his brows. He let out a depressed sigh and headed to the door of the guest room. He wanted to eavesdrop. It was a pity that they were not arguing loudly in the room, so he could not hear anything.He took his phone out and sent a message to Chad. He typed, [Your boss is
Mike: [She came to Aryadelle to look for Elliot. Elliot, that jerk, actually went to meet her! Let me ask you! Is he a jerk or not!]Chad: [… He is a jerk!]Mike: [Hahaha!]Chad: [How could he do this?! How could he do this to Avery and his three children?!]Chad was a little sad.Mike: [When he's smart, he is pretty smart, but when he's dumb, he really is an idiot. He has been tricked by Ruby!]Chad perked up. [He has been tricked? My god! Has Ruby tricked him to sleep with her?]As Avery had run away from home, Chad thought that the matter was much more serious. Mike: [Hah! If he has slept with Ruby, I wouldn't tell you that he has been tricked. I would just say that he had an affair, okay!]Chad: [Oh, then how was he tricked? You say things halfway! It's annoying! I really want to hit you!]Mike: [Ruby said the child in her looks like Layla and he believed it. Don’t you find it funny! I'm really laughing to death!]Chad: [What is so funny about it! You're strange!]Mike
Mike was standing outside the guest room door. He initially heard them fighting intensely. He hesitated for a bit as to whether he should enter the room and help Avery.However, the argument lasted for less than two minutes and it was silent once more.A moment later, the guest room door opened and they came out."Are you done?" Mike scratched his head. "So quick?""Mike, we'll head back first." Avery looked like she had calmed down, but her bloodshot eyes looked serious."Oh, you guys are changing to a different arena to fight?" Mike followed them and headed out. "Avery, don't get brainwashed by him. You are a modern woman. You must stand your ground. You cannot bear such a thing. No matter how he begs you, you cannot swallow your pride! I understand men. If you were to bear with him this time, he will repeat the mistake the next time again."Avery heard Mike's nagging. She was extremely moved."Come over for dinner tonight! Lilith is back at noon." Avery changed into a lighter
"Adrian, I am an amazing model now! When I become a professional model, I will be able to make lots of money!" Lilith boasted to him and said, "I hope you'll become a normal person someday and be able to get married."Adrian's face turned red in an instant.He was too embarrassed to respond to that matter."You're a funny one, Lilith." Ben, who was next to them, could not help but laugh."Why are you still here?" Lilith immediately looked at him when she heard his voice. "Didn't you say that you want to go back and catch up on some sleep?""I can also catch up on some sleep here. I'll return after dinner." It was too fun over there, so he did not want to leave for the time being.Not long after that, Elliot came downstairs. "Elliot, your sister has brought you a gift." Ben sat on the sofa, eagerly waiting for the scene to unfold.Lilith shot a glance at him, and then took out the gift that she had bought for him from her luggage.When she was buying the gift, Ben was right ne
Avery woke up at around four in the afternoon. When she came down the stairs, everyone was looking at her. She was slightly taken aback by the attention."Why are you guys looking at me?" She touched her face. She had just woken up, so her face was a little red. She had quite a good sleep that afternoon, so she was in good spirits, and she was not as upset as before anymore.No matter what, life still had to go on for her.Also, so many friends had come to the house to visit them at that moment, so she was very happy. "Avery! I brought you a gift!" Lilith delivered the gift she had bought for Avery to her. "I did well in the preliminary round this time, so my agent gave me a bonus. This is what I got for you from the jewelry store near the airport."Avery opened the box. There were a few bracelets in there in various thicknesses, and they were all embellished with beads in various colors. All of the bracelets looked especially good when worn together on her wrist."Tha
