Chapter 1740
In the photo, Eric was sitting extremely close to Avery and was spoon-feeding her."Ha! I finally get what she insists on getting a divorce and has been so heartless towards me and the kids," Elliot thought, "So it's because she's dating Eric!""Mr. Foster, don't block Avery now!" Chad had thought that Elliot was blocking Avery's contact by his expression and said, "No matter what, she is still the mother of your children. You will still need to contact one another over matters concerning the kids."The veins on Elliot's forehead popped in rage as he gritted out, "Thank you for reminding me."Chad stared at him in shock. "Since we are divorced, I have no right to interfere with her life any longer. She is free to be with anyone she wants! I don't care! A woman who would fall out of love so easily is not worthy of my love!" Elliot barked as he moved his trembling finger toward the contact list on his phone and blacklisted Avery's number.Chad gaped at Elliot's reaction. He had co

"Eric, are you leaving tomorrow?" Lilith poured wine for the man next to her.Eric's manager was present as well. The manager had told Eric not to drink, but Eric was in a pleasant mood and insisted on having a glass."I need to go back to my hectic schedule again starting tomorrow. I refuse to go back if you won't let me drink," said Eric, threatening his manager."Aren't you worried that your face will look bloated tomorrow?" The manager sighed."I'll be spending the whole day on the plane tomorrow, so no." Eric raised his glass and took a sip."Avery, do something. Eric can't drink." Helpless, the manager sought help from Avery.Avery did not want to force Eric into anything and said, "Just let him drink if he doesn't have work tomorrow! It's fine as long as he doesn't drink too much.""See? Avery says it's fine." Eric's lips curled into a triumphant smile.Lilith poured herself a glass of wine and raised her glass at Eric. "Eric, thank you so much for flying here to help me

Instantly, silence fell over the table."Lilith, we are here today to celebrate you. We don't need to talk about anything else," Avery said calmly. Elliot had mentioned that he would destroy Alpha Technologies before and giving money to Natalie was only the beginning of his plan.Mike, too, remained composed as he had already ripped into Elliot over this. He no longer wanted to waste any more time on Elliot."Don't look so grim, y'all, it's not like the world is ending! Do you have so little trust in me and Avery?" Mike raised his glass. "C'mon. Let's cheer and wish Lilith success in becoming a supermodel soon! Buy us dinner at a more expensive place next time!"Lilith flushed. "Even if I become a supermodel, I wouldn't know where to take you. I don't know any place that's more luxurious than this restaurant.""It's fine, I will book the place. You just worry about the bill," Mike teased and urged the others to drink.The mood instantly lightened up."Avery, don't take this the

The two spoke at the same time and stopped as the car moved forward."You go first," Mike said."Hayden is busy, and I don't think he can take it any longer. He's still a child, after all." Avery had wanted to ask Hayden to join them for dinner, but Hayden had told her that he could not make it at the last minute."Just talk to him while he is on break, and set a curfew for him." Mike agreed that Hayden had been working himself to the ground recently, and he knew why. Hayden had witnessed all the things Elliot had been doing to Avery and he held a grudge against Elliot.Hayden had a strong and proud personality and was definitely planning to counter Elliot's move."Yeah," Avery agreed and asked, "What were you going to say?"Mike shook his head. "Nothing much. I just think that it's a good thing that all cards are on the table with Elliot. I don't want to waste my time yelling at him anymore."Avery glanced at the neon lights on the street outside the window. "We don't really

Half an hour later, Tammy and Jun arrived at Avery's mansion.Avery welcomed them enthusiastically.It was Avery's first time meeting Tiffany, so she had prepared an envelope filled with money for the child."She is still so little, what use would she have for the money?" Unable to refuse Avery's gift, Tammy accepted it with resignation. "My daughter looks dazed all the time, and she's either eating or sleeping through the day. She isn't scared of strangers at this age so you can hold her!"Avery wanted to hold Tiffany but was concerned that she might accidentally drop her as her eyesight had not fully recovered, but when she saw Tiffany's adorable face, Avery could not contain herself any longer and accepted the baby from Tammy's hands."New-borns are all like this. As she grows, she will need less and less sleep." Avery sat down on the couch with Tiffany in her arms while playing with her chubby cheeks with a smile. "Tiffany, have you gone and played with Layla and Robert?""Bo

Indeed, Jun was the perfect father, skilled in changing diapers for the baby along with feeding and bathing her as well."You are that great, huh?" Avery was impressed."This is my only daughter, so of course, I need to take great care of her." Jun took Tiffany from Avery's arms and said, "You two can go out right now if you want to. Just bring me something to eat at night."Avery was fine with it but was concerned that Tammy might still be jetlagged. "Do you need to rest for a bit? We can go out tomorrow."Tammy pulled at Avery's arm excitedly and dragged her toward the door. "I want to shop for clothes. It's been almost a year since I was halfway through my pregnancy, and I haven't bought any normal clothing since. It's driving me crazy!""You could have bought some in Aryadelle! It's more troublesome to take them back with you if you shop here." Avery grabbed her coat and phone, before heading out with Tammy.Avery had recovered seventy percent of her eyesight after the remova

"Oh my god! Why are you awake so soon? Are you hungry? Daddy will make your milk right away... What's that in your hand, let Daddy see."Jun carefully took the piece of paper out of Tiffany's hand, and though it was crumpled, he could still read the words on it.The smile on Jun's face faded as he read the content.He scanned the room once again and found a black hair-tie on the nightstand next to the bed.This was not Mike's room.To confirm his theory, he strode toward the closet and opened it. He gasped when he found female clothing as far as he could see. There was a brief introduction concerning the companies, followed by a series of numbers next to the words 'estimated price'.The more he thought about it, the more confused he became."Is Avery planning on selling Alpha Technologies? Why else would she have a price estimation form under her pillow?" he thought.Without hesitation, he picked Tiffany up from the bed and hurried out of the room.Had he known that it was Ave

"That's not what I'm saying! Your daughter is the one restricting my freedom. I am someone who enjoys going out, and because of our daughter, I can't go anywhere.""With your mom and the nanny taking care of her, you are free to go anywhere you want," Jun argued."But I don't want to leave her!" Tammy shrugged with resignation. "I've never known how great mothers are until I actually have a child of my own. I can feel my old self peeling away as I transform into a completely different person.""That's the love of a mother." Avery joked around with Jun, "Tammy said she missed Tiffany while we were out shopping, and that is why we returned so early. By the way, which of these are you mailing back? I will find a box for them and call the delivery service to come to pick them up later.""Just sit down and rest! We can do that later." Tammy took a sip from her glass of water and suddenly remembered what Jun had said. "You said you couldn't tell that it was Avery's room when you walked i
