Once, she was in he left her in peace. After Avery drank the sobering concoction, her stomach felt much better.She lay in bed and could not move. It was as if her body was falling apart. Forget about it. She was not going to take a shower that night. She would do it the next day.At that though, she took off her shoes and put her legs on the bed.The light on the nightstand was still on. She wanted to switch it off, but her body felt like jelly. She had no strength at all. She felt as if she could sleep the very next second.She was just going to sleep that way! After thinking about that, she groggily fell asleep.In the middle of the night, she woke up with the urge to pee. She immediately got out of bed and headed to the washroom.A moment later, she returned to the bed once more. The

What Avery said made Mike's hand tremble a little. The phone in his hands fell to the floor with a clang."Ah… f*ck!" Mike immediately picked his phone up. It was not a surprise that he was killed off in his game.Throwing his phone aside, he looked at Avery once more."Are you really planning to return to Aryadelle? Why did you suddenly have this idea? I want to know what you're thinking."Mike was stunned because, for the past two years, her friends in Aryadelle had often been asking her to head back to Aryadelle, but not once had she ever wavered from her decision to not return.However, at that moment, she suddenly wanted to return to Aryadelle. It was most likely not only because she had graduated."Every year, I could only see Layla during winter and summer breaks. Robert, on the other hand… I haven't seen him for almost three years. The video calls don't count," Avery choked up a little. "If I return to Aryadelle, I would sure be able to see Robert.""Oh, so you miss your

Mike raised his eyebrow. "What do you think?""It's good that he didn't." Avery finished eating the sandwich. She took a piece of tissue to wipe her mouth. "The thing about me saying I want to head back to Aryadelle, don't tell others yet. I haven't decided!""Okay, then take your time. It's not in a rush. Even if you're not heading back to Aryadelle now, Layla is coming to see you in a few days." Mike got up from the sofa with his phone in his hand. "I'll make a move first.""Hmm."After Mike left, Avery sat on the sofa and slowly drank her milk. She felt that her brain was overheating a little. If she really wanted to head back to Aryadelle, she needed to calm down first before doing anything.After breakfast, she returned to her bedroom. She lay down in bed and took her phone.The top news of the day was Netimail shutting down.Everyone was showing off the picture of their first and last email in their Netimail online. Avery found it quite interesting, so she looked at many o

Lilith was amused by the term supermodel."Avery, thank you for giving me the title of a supermodel. To be honest, I don't really want to return to Aryadelle. You and Hayden are here. I particularly don't want to leave the both of you.""Hayden and I may not stay here forever. Just return first and see how the environment for your work in the country is. Didn't you say you won't stop working even if you were to marry Ben?" Avery said."Hmm. My agent, Jaz, can't go to Aryadelle with me. She introduced me to her friend there, so I'll first go and have a try. Jaz said that she'll save a spot for me in the company here. If my work in Aryadelle isn't smooth sailing, she would welcome me back at any time. The people around me are super nice to me. I'm really very touched… All of this is because you and Hayden supported me through everything."Tears welled up in Lilith's eyes as she was moved."Lilith, all of the success that you've gotten are the results of your effort. The person that

At Bridgedale, Avery and Adrian sent Lilith to the airport. After Lilith passed through security, they came out of the airport."Adrian, I'm afraid that Lilith won't return that quickly. Do you want to move over to my place to stay?" Avery asked, "I have many empty rooms and I'm usually home alone."Adrian shook his head. "I don't want to move around. I can look after myself.""Adrian, I don't think you need to be cared for. It's more like someone you could talk to," Avery explained, "I know now that not only do you know how to do chores, but you can also cook. You don't need a nanny anymore.""Lilith hired a teacher for me, he is staying in the same neighborhood. My teacher is quite old. He has a lot of time every day, so he often comes to look for me," Adrian's eyes sparkled when he said that. "I like learning how to draw from him.""Hmm. Then are you learning with him today?""We have agreed to meet in the afternoon.""Okay, then let's have lunch together and I'll send you ba
