Chapter 1797
Mike: [Have a guess.] Chad was too lazy to guess, so he made a phone call. Mike felt that Chad's patience was lower than before. "You came back with Hayden?" After Mike answered the phone, Chad's voice sounded. "Hayden is still in school! How could he come back with me?" "Oh... I thought Avery was never coming back to Aryadelle? Why did she come back all of a sudden?" Chad pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose. "Since when did she say she would never return to Aryadelle?" Mike took the phone and went back to his room. "You haven't gone to work, have you? You could ask for leave today." "No. I really can't ask for a leave today. My boss told me he won't come to the company for the next few days." Chad said, "Do you think it is possible that his behavior has something to do with Avery's return to Aryadelle?" "How would I know? We returned to Aryadelle quite abruptly and didn't tell anyone." "Oh, that might be a coincidence! By the way, how many days is A

"Don't say that! Ben is quite handsome. Besides, Ben is really nice." "Yeah, according to you, your boss is also a nice person." Mike teased and dialed Lilith's number, "Don't talk; I'm calling Lilith." In the Starry River Villa, Avery had slept for about three hours and was woken up by the sound outside. When she slept, she had forgotten to close the curtains. The golden sunlight shone in through the window. She opened her eyes and didn't get up immediately. A child's voice rang in her ears. "Robert, don't tell your father that I brought you to see your mother today." Ben hugged Robert and came to Avery's house, feeling uneasy. Robert knew Ben very well because he often visited him. So when they proposed to bring Robert out to play, Robert obediently followed him. After Robert heard the word 'mother', an unnaturally timid expression suddenly appeared on his little face. He usually talked with his mother on video. Sometimes, when Layla video called A

"Don't blame Robert. Robert is a child and is close to whoever takes care of him." Ben saw the sadness in her eyes, so he comforted her. "Robert and Elliot have a special relationship, just like Layla and Hayden have with you." "How could I blame Robert? I'm not the one taking care of him. To him, I am only a stranger." "Well, how long do you plan to stay in Aryadelle this time? If you stay for a long time, I can bring Robert over the next time." Ben said, "Even if Elliot finds out, I'll take the blame." "I think I will stay for a long time." Avery said, "When Elliot returns, I will talk to him about the child's visitation rights. I never denied him his right to visit Hayden, so he can't refuse my request to visit Robert." "If you want to talk, you must talk calmly. Don't start arguing again." Avery retorted. "You should tell him instead. As long as he doesn't start a quarrel with me, I will not quarrel with him." "Oh, good." Ben then picked Robert up from behind and

"I didn't understand why the elderly people always told divorced couples to try to make their marriage hold for the sake of their children. Until I saw you and Elliot's children, I finally understood." Elliot didn't wait for Avery to answer. "I know my decision to divorce will hurt my children, but if I don't get divorced, I will live a miserable life. If I were in pain every day, I would not be able to give my children a warm and loving life." Avery explained. Her explanation answered the previous question. She didn't regret her divorce from Elliot. After Ben left, Avery returned home. She went straight to the kitchen and prepared the dishes, She covered it with a film and put it in the refrigerator. If she went to dinner alone, she didn't need to start cooking. After cleaning up the kitchen, she returned to the living room and lay on the sofa. After a busy afternoon, her lower back felt a little sore. She wasn't sleepy, though. Before Robert was on
Chapter 1801
Robert looked at his father with an adorable face and said what he saw and heard from his mother today. Avery said that he liked his father before, but Robert's words made it seem like she still wanted him. Those words sent Elliot into an emotional rollercoaster. His son did not seem to be lying. "Robert, who said this to you?" Mrs. Cooper asked Robert immediately when she saw Elliot's body freeze. Robert raised her head, looked at Mrs. Cooper, and replied, "That's what my mother said!" Mrs. Cooper didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Why would your mother tell you such things?" "Mom did say that." Robert was afraid that everyone would think he was lying, so he repeatedly emphasized that he was speaking the truth. Mrs. Cooper noticed that the atmosphere had become really awkward, so she took out the other leg of the robot from the suitcase that Elliot opened. "Let's go and fix the robot's legs." Mrs. Cooper led Robert away. Elliot closed the suitcase and

"Are they quarreling?" Mike kept paying attention to Avery's figure outside the door. He saw Avery clench her fists. "Probably! Elliot doesn't like other people doing stuff without his knowledge." Ben said, "I brought Robert out today and didn't tell him." "He can't take his anger out on Avery!" Mike said, put down his glass, and wanted to go out and speak in Avery's defense. Chad immediately dragged him back. "What do you think you are doing? They're in the middle of a quarrel! I don't think Avery will lose. My boss is not good at quarreling." Chad didn't want to let Mike get in trouble because of his own foolishness. "The two of them haven't discussed their visitation rights before, so now is a good chance for them to figure it out." Hearing that, Mike sat back and said, "Aren't you afraid Avery might lose to Elliot?" "You're not of much help anyway!" Chad teased, "You're more of a hindrance than a help." Mike glared at him. "I don't like to hear you say that.
Chapter 1803
He probably didn't expect her to apologize, so he was speechless for a long time. When the lightning and thunder were roaring just now, he said that she would need his consent to see Robert in the future. She agreed. In Elliot's mansion, After Elliot finished talking, he took the phone and walked toward the bathroom. He hadn't done anything productive that whole day. Because of Avery, a day was wasted. Of course, Avery wasn't to be blamed for this. It was his fault he was upset and had to go to Ylore. He wanted to ask her about Ivy just now. Still, he reminded himself rationally that if he asked her on the phone, he would not get any results. He would meet her in person when she wanted to see Robert next time. After taking a shower, he came out of the main bedroom. Unexpectedly, Robert was standing at the door of his bedroom. Robert had already finished dinner, holding the fixed robot in his hand and showing it to him. "Robert, are you happy to see y

Elliot laughed when he saw his son's silly appearance. Robert was Layla's little follower. There was a significant age gap between them, so Robert was always worried that his sister would not play with him and would usually flatter his sister in various ways. "Then, the next time you see your mother, invite her!" Elliot said to his son. He knew that Avery would refuse. "Okay!" Robert happily followed his father downstairs and began to look forward to seeing his mother next time, "Dad, when will my sister come back?" "Let's video call her!" Elliot hadn't called his daughter for two days, and now he missed her very much. He carried Robert to the living room sofa, sat down, took out his mobile phone, and dialed Layla's number. No one answered. It was past seven o'clock in the evening, so she should have finished her work. He had asked Eric for Layla's shooting schedule before and confirmed that Layla's shootings were all arranged during the daytime. Thinki
