Chapter 1691
Even if she asked Hayden, Hayden would not tell her.Hayden hung up the phone and looked up at the operating room door.After Avery got off the plane, she went directly to the hospital and entered the operating room.Her medical records were sent here when she was in Aryadelle.Everything was ready for her."Did Lilith call?" Mike asked with his arms crossed over his chest."She did.""Ben must have told her." Mike walked to the bench, sat down, took out a box of chewing gum from his pocket, put two in his mouth, and handed the box to Hayden.Hayden shook his head."Why don't you go back and rest first? I'll wait here." Mike chewed his gum with a calm face, "Your mother will be fine. The doctor operating on her is an expert ophthalmologist in Bridgedale."Hayden shook his head again.He wanted to wait until his mother's operation was over."You have to attend school tomorrow. Do you want to go to school with dark circles under your eyes?" Mike said, "You've signed a five-ye

Avery replied, "No.""Why? Do you need another operation? Why is it so complicated? Is the doctor confident that your eyes can be cured completely?" Mike said anxiously.She thought she could recover after the operation. Unfortunately, that was not the case."If I recover successfully after this operation, the cornea will be replaced later. After my cornea gets replaced, I can see clearly again." Avery said, "As long as everything goes according to plan, the subsequent operation will be fine.""Oh... How are you going to get the corneas you need? Does the hospital have a cornea bank?" Mike was worried, "Are there any specific requirements for corneal transplantation?""Mike, don't be nervous." Avery said calmly, "The hospital has a cornea bank. The doctor will help me find a suitable cornea. It's pretty trivial. I'm going to recover pretty quickly after the surgery!""You will definitely recover quickly." Mike encouraged her. "Are you scared of the dark? You can't see anything no

"I don't want you! Go away! You're a horrible dad! I hate you!" Layla exclaimed suddenly.Robert, on the bed next to him, was instantly awakened.Robert was woken up by the screams. His cries were endless and deafening.Mrs. Cooper looked embarrassed and didn't know whether to coax Robert or continue to coax Layla.Elliot said to Mrs. Cooper, "Take Robert away. I'll talk to Layla.""Okay...sir, be patient; Layla is sick now...""I will."After Mrs. Cooper carried the crying Robert away, only Layla's cry was left in the room.Layla cried so hard today that her voice was hoarse.She was ill at the moment, and her face looked flushed. The skin on her face, and her eyes, were also red.Elliot stood in front of the bed and looked at his daughter helplessly: "Layla, I'm sorry. Dad didn't mean to separate you from your mother. Your mother insisted on divorce from me. I have no other choice.""It's all your fault! It's your fault that mom divorced you!" Layla looked at him with tear

She should have arrived in Bridgedale by now.Why was her phone still not working?Had she turned it off, or had she blocked him?"Mom..." Layla burned in a daze on the stretcher, muttering in a low voice, "Mom …brother...don't go...don't leave me..."Elliot looked at his daughter's little face whispering words in pain and tightened his fingers holding the phone.Why was Avery so cruel?Being cruel to him was enough; how could she be so cruel to the child?Did she plan to cut the child off?She had suddenly become so unfamiliar to him!He couldn't help but wonder, did he really make a big mistake?He redialed Avery's number and got the same response as just now.It seemed that she didn't plan to contact them again.Layla was pushed out of the ambulance when it arrived at the hospital and had her temperature taken.At home, the temperature taken by Mrs. Cooper did not exceed 38.5 degrees, but now, Layla's temperature had exceeded 40 degrees!The doctor immediately prescrib

After Layla finished her medicine, the doctor prescribed her some medicine to take when she went back home.When they got home, it was 4:40 in the morning.The villa door was open, and the lights in the living room were bright as day.After Mrs. Cooper coaxed Robert to sleep, she waited in the living room.Seeing Elliot come back with Layla in his arms, Mrs. Cooper immediately greeted him."Layla's fever has subsided. I need to wipe her body and change her clothes." Elliot hugged Layla and went back to the room.Mrs. Cooper responded, "Sir, go back to your room to rest! I'll take care of Layla. Otherwise, when Layla wakes up and sees you, she might cry again."Elliot looked at his daughter's pale and haggard sleeping face and murmured in a hoarse voice, "Should I give up Layla's custody?""You love Layla very much, and if Layla lives by your side, you will treat her very well. She's not used to it now; you just need some patience. Though, it will take some time for her to adjus

Mike read the text message he sent several times but didn't understand what he meant.Did he want to give Layla's custody to Avery, or does he want Avery to go back and live with him again?He was somewhat ambiguous in his wordings.Mike lay down on his bed, holding Avery's mobile phone. After hesitating, he texted him back: [Are you willing to give me Layla's custody?]After the message was sent, Mike kept an eye on his phone, waiting for a reply.If Elliot was willing to give Layla's custody to Avery, Mike promised not to hold grudges against Elliot in the future.About ten minutes later, Elliot's messages came back: [Your daughter is ill, I don't think you care about her current situation at all, you only care about her custody.]Seeing this reply, Mike was so angry that blood rushed to his head, and his fingers quickly typed on the screen: [Whose fault is it that Layla is being sick? It's you! You didn't take good care of her, and you dare to accuse me?]After typing this s

Layla took his cell phone, turned it on, and saw their exchange."Layla, your mother just refuses to talk to me now, even if I wanted to tell her about you."When Elliot said these words, Layla dialed Avery's number.Unsurprisingly, a system prompt sounded. "Mom doesn't answer your call, but she will definitely answer mine!" Layla returned his mobile phone to him, then found her own and dialed Avery.The same system prompt sounded.Layla burst into tears.Elliot took her into his arms: "Layla, don't cry. Dad will take good care of you and your brother. Dad will work harder to be a good dad."Layla instinctively wanted to push him away, but she knew clearly that she had no one to rely on except her father.So she didn't push him away.The summer vacation had not yet started, but she returned to school after a day off at home to take her mind off the matter.As for Robert, the departure of Avery and Hayden did not have much impact on his life.He was happy as long as someone
Chapter 1698
Wesley looked at his face, hesitated for a few seconds, and said, "She asked me to take care of Shea.""Did she say anything else? Did she say anything about me?""No." Wesley's answer took all hope away from Elliot. After Elliot left, Shea looked at Wesley."You're not treating my brother very well." Shea told him her feelings.Wesley was usually very polite towards everyone, but he was rather cold towards Elliot.Wesley didn't deny. "It's his own fault. If he hadn't hurt the relationship between him and Avery, Avery would not have divorced with him. His relationship with Holly was a disaster, and now he wants to make amends with Avery. It's just too late."Shea said, "My brother made a mistake, and Avery would be right to put the blame on him. I don't think you're allowed to talk to him like that though. He is the person who treats me the best… He's one of them, at least."Wesley relented. "All right, I'll be more careful with my temper the next time."In Bridgedale, Avery
