Chapter 1673
"When you say that, it makes sense." In the evening, at Starry River Villa, Chad drove over and gave gifts to the three children. "Chad, why didn't Mike come with you?" Layla scratched her head and looked behind him. "I feel like I haven't seen him for a long time!" Chad scratched his head. "Is he not here?" Hayden answered, "No! Isn't he with you?" "He hasn't been home for two days." Chad was puzzled. "He said he came here to stay for a few days and didn't contact me after that. I don't know what he is up to." Layla puffed out her cheeks and said sternly, "Mike lied to you! He has never been to our house!" "What in the world is going on!" Chad took out his mobile phone, dialed Mike's number, and after a while, growled, "He won't answer my call!" "Then call my mother! You ask my mother to find him!" Layla gave Chad an idea. "He is terrified of my mother." Chad thanked Layla and immediately called Avery. In the ward, Mike saw Chad call Avery's cell phone, and without

It was five o'clock in the morning in Ylore. The ringing of his mobile phone awakened Elliot, and when he saw that it was Chad, he answered it immediately. "Boss, how are you doing? Have you found Ivy?" Chad asked. Elliot did not expect him to call him just to ask him this. "Do you know what time it is over here?" "I know. Did I wake you up?" Chad's tone contained a little self-reproach but not much guilt, "I went to Starry River Villa just now." Elliot rubbed his brows and sat up. Although it was five in the morning, the sky was starting to lighten. "If you want to say something, just say it." His tone was sullen. "Boss, did you and Avery break up? Mike said she was going to divorce you," Chad said. "If you have nothing to do in Ylore, come back quickly! You can let Ben stay there and deal with everything else." "Deal with what? Ivy hasn't been found yet! Deal with what, exactly?" Elliot's voice rose. "When you mentioned Mike, it occurred to me that he said before

Seeing that the situation was serious, Wesley went to Mike immediately. Not long after, Mike came downstairs and saw Chad at a glance. When the two met, it was like two enemies meeting each other. In the Ophthalmology Inpatient Department, Wesley chatted with Avery in the ward. "Chad said Elliot suspected that Mike killed Ruby." Wesley held an apple and peeled it slowly, "I think Chad looked rather nervous. Did Mike do that?" Avery looked surprised. "Impossible. Mike wouldn't do such a thing. If he did, he would have told me." "If he did it, he probably wouldn't tell you. He might get scolded by you if he told you." Wesley heard the uncertainty in her tone, "Ruby died, but Ivy was Innocent. He wouldn't even kill Ivy, would he? If so, that would be horrible." Avery shook her head violently and wanted to get out of bed. "I'll ask him myself… I don't believe he would do such a thing! He won't kill anyone for nothing..." Wesley put down the apple and the peeling knife, "Don

After saying this, Chad regretted it. He couldn't take it back though. He believed that Mike didn't do it because Mike denied it at first. He was angry with Mike for ignoring him these days. No matter how the relationship between Avery and Elliot was, what did it have to do with other people? Why should they receive the implications of Avery and Elliot's divorce? When Mike returned to the ward, Wesley immediately stood up from the chair. "You two talk. I'll go out first." When Wesley went out, he closed the door of the ward. Avery looked at Mike. Although she didn't say anything, Mike already knew what she wanted to say by the look in her eyes. "I didn't do it. I did think about killing Ruby and throwing the child where no one could find it, but I didn't." Mike sat down in the chair Wesley was sitting in just now. "Later, I looked at Ivy's photos, and the more I looked, the less cruel I became, so I didn't do anything." "I believe you." Avery was relieved after rece

"Let's order takeaway! I'm afraid Hayden needs me." Avery hadn't seen her children for a few days and had experienced blindness the day before yesterday, so she wanted to see her child while she could. She was pretty troubled these days. The doctor put her in the hospital, so she followed his orders. She wanted to see her child but was afraid to tell him about her condition. Now that Hayden had come to her, she probably couldn't hide her situation. The two returned to the ward, and Avery walked up to Hayden. Wesley didn't speak but only coughed lightly, reminding Avery that Hayden already knew about her situation. Avery understood what Wesley meant. "Hayden, mother's illness can be cured. It just takes a little time." She comforted Hayden, "Did you come alone? How did you come? Did you tell your sister when you went out?" Hayden said, "Uncle Chad went to our house today. I heard what he said and thought it was a little strange. So I came to find you two." Hayden sa

Hayden said this because he felt that Elliot might want Layla and Robert, but not necessarily him. Their relationship was terrible and they had never reconciled. "Hayden, don't be angry yet. I was just planning for the worst. Your father may not be so hard on your mom." Wesley felt sad for Hayden. A child his age should grow up happily under the protection of his parents. But he has been suffering from troubles he should not bear for his age. "Uncle Wesley, you don't need to comfort me. I know him well enough that he's a bad guy." Hayden said coldly. In Starry River Villa, Layla immediately pulled him over when Hayden came back and asked, "Brother, have you seen mommy? Have you seen Uncle Mike? Are they both in the hospital? How is Aunt Shea's baby? Take me there! I miss Mommy." Layla wanted to go with Hayden tonight, but Hayden refused. He wasn't sure if his mother was really in the hospital. "Layla, brother has something to tell you." Hayden took Layla's hand and le

Layla's impression of Elliot had changed completely. He was once the world's best father in her eyes but had since turned into the most heinous of devils."Robert will be fine with Mrs. Cooper taking care of him," Hayden comforted his sister. "Mommy will fight for his custody when the time comes, but I don't think Elliot will be so kind as to just let her have her way!"The door opened moments later.Layla and Hayden were stunned to see Robert standing at the door, and Layla even burst into tears when she had the thought of being separated from her little brother."Stinky little Robert! I don't want to be separated from you! You have no idea how much I wanna bring you with me!" Layla hugged Robert and was almost short of breath from all her crying.Robert pouted and wanted to cry too when he felt Layla's warm hug and heard her sobs.Mrs. Cooper was startled to see what was happening and immediately looked at Hayden. "What happened, Hayden?""My mommy is getting a divorce with El

Over at Elizabeth Hospital, Avery—who was put on a drip—leaned against the bedhead.The door to her ward opened and Mike strode in."What are you holding?" Avery's gaze fell on his hand.Mike handed the documents to her. "You said you wanted to divorce Elliot, right? I printed the divorce agreement for you so you can sign it right now. Once he comes back, you can let him sign it right away too."Avery took the document and read it carefully."If you make all the preparations and just leave the last bit for him to sign, it'll be the biggest blow to him," Mike analyzed with her. "He's a proud man, but I can imagine him getting angry when he sees you being so proactive with handing over the divorce agreement. Once he's angry, he might just sign it immediately.""There's no need to play psychological tactics, Mike. He and I are both adults, and I'm sure he knows that I'm going to divorce him already." Avery flipped through the documents and saw a form on the last page.There were tw
