Avery wanted to see Elliot's reaction as well."Avery, who is the boss of Dream Maker? How old is he? What does he look like? I'm sure he must be handsome right? If he isn't handsome, how could you fall for him?" Tammy went in closer to Avery and asked her a series of questions.Avery blushed a little. She smiled sweetly as if she was deeply in love."Uh… he is quite handsome."Tammy could not help but squeal at her reply!"Avery! You've grown up! How dare you secretly be in a relationship but not tell me?! How did you manage to hold back and not tell me? What were you thinking?" Tammy reached her arm out and hugged Avery around her shoulders.Avery took a deep breath. She picked up the glass of water on the coffee table. She drank some water to make herself calm down."This happened… quite suddenly," Avery replied."Oh, I get it!" Tammy slapped her lap. "You two have just gotten together, right?"Avery was speechless."Avery, you're amazing! I knew you splitting up with Elli
Every time Avery lied, her heart would beat faster.Fortunately, Tammy left happily after asking that question. Avery raised her hand to wipe away the sweat on her forehead. Then, she found Mike's contact and called him.Mike immediately answered with a flirtatious tone, "Avery, you saw the message?""How dare you make such a joke!" Avery took a deep breath and yelled, "The joke is not on you, so you must be happy seeing it, right?""What could I see? I'm in Bridgedale, I can't even see Elliot's reaction!" Mike chuckled. "Since I already put the word out, just don't expose me. Let them continue to misunderstand. If Elliot truly wants to pursue you, even if you marry another man, he will still find a way to take you back! If he isn't determined about this, that proves that he doesn't love you that much."Avery sneered. "I think I can introduce Chad to some better people. Perhaps he might find someone who is better suited to him."Mike's expression instantly changed. "Avery! There'
Tammy drove the custom-made Dream Maker back to the Lynch mansion.After she parked her car, Mary came out with her granddaughter in her hand."Tammy! Whose care are you driving? It's such a gorgeous car!" Mary yelled. Jun came out of the living room when he heard the commotion."It's Avery's! Her boyfriend gave it to her! It's gorgeous, right!" Tammy got out of the car and took her phone out. She said to Jun, "Hubby, come take photos for me!"Jun swore and walked over to Tammy."Is this the luxury car that Avery's boyfriend gave her? That's so cool!""Yes! Avery let me have it for however long I want." Tammy looked smug. "Avery told me that she has just gotten together with the boss of Dream Maker, which was why she didn't tell me about it. It's not because he isn't great! He is very good-looking!"Mary looked at the metallic pink car. The more she looked at it, the more she liked it. "You guys are just nosy without looking into the matter properly! How bad could Avery's taste
Seeing the nine photos that Tammy posted, as well as the captions, Elliot's heart sank.Did Tammy mean that Avery could help her order a custom-made car, too?Thinking about that, Elliot found Jun's number and called him.Jun stopped the car by the side of the road to answer Elliot's call."Elliot.""Did Avery promise to help you order a car?" he asked."Uh… how did you know?" Jun asked him in confusion."I saw Tammy's social media and I guessed." Elliot continued, "How could Avery help you? Jun, tell me everything you know."Jun looked troubled. He took a deep breath and said, "Elliot, do you really want to hear it?""What relationship does Avery have with Dream Maker's boss?" Elliot sounded impatient.Jun cleared his throat and said, "She and the boss of Dream Maker… are together." He paused for a while before adding, "Chad was the one who told us. Chad heard it from Mike, so I doubt the news is fake."Elliot's breathing turned heavy."Elliot, Tammy went to see Avery toda
"He's not around! He and Robert are outside playing with the drone," said Layla, sounding aggrieved. "Did you really find a new boyfriend? Who is he? Is he handsome? How old is he? Where is he staying?"Hearing Layla's voice, Avery missed her a lot. She wanted to talk to her daughter, face to face."Get the driver to send you over. I'll tell you in person.""Oh… okay." Layla hung up and immediately went to look for the driver.A moment later, the driver took Layla out.Mrs. Cooper walked over to Elliot."Master Elliot, Layla insists on going to look for Avery, so I got the driver to send her over. Don't worry. I'll get the driver to pick her up later.""Okay." Elliot looked at the gate.He did not know how Avery was going to handle Layla. However, Avery's new boyfriend must have passed Hayden. As long as Hayden approved, Avery was not afraid for Robert and Layla.About an hour later, the driver sent Layla home.Elliot noticed that Layla looked much more relaxed. It looked l
"But," said, Layla before Elliot could get a word in, "If Mommy really wants to marry Uncle Billy, I'll be down with it too. Mommy said that Uncle Billy will treat me and my siblings well. I really look forward to meeting Uncle Billy. Maybe he might even listen to me more than you."Elliot's fury was at its peak."Layla, do you really want that man to be your stepfather?" His voice was trembling.Layla could feel Elliot's anger, but she decided to brace it and finished whatever she wanted to say."As long as Mommy is happy, of course, I would acknowledge that man as my stepfather."Hearing Layla's answer, Elliot was extremely heartbroken.He got up from the sofa and headed upstairs.Looking at Elliot heading upstairs without saying anything, she panicked.Did she provoke Elliot so much that it backfired?At that thought, Layla anxiously went to look for Mrs. Cooper."I made Daddy angry just now." Layla looked at Robert, who was sleeping soundly in bed, and puffed her cheeks.
Elliot heard Layla apologizing. He immediately accepted the tissues she passed him and wiped away the tears."It must be because I didn't do well enough, so you would deliberately make me mad." He looked at Layla, hoping to hear more of what was on her mind.Ever since he had divorced Avery, Layla had been staying with him, but she had never said a kind word to him.At that moment, she came to him on her own initiative. He was exceptionally moved.Layla placed her homework on the desk. She hesitated for a while before looking up at Elliot."Daddy, I'm angry with you because not once did you try to win Mommy back. I have filmed quite a few drama series. Although I play the younger version of the female lead, I know how the people in the series act. No matter how badly the male and female lead quarrel, in the end, the male lead would still coax the female lead back. Why can't you coax Mommy back?" Layla grumbled."Do you think I have never tried to make your Mommy stay?" Elliot ask
When Layla heard what Avery said, she calmed down a little."Then, I'll still listen to Uncle Mike! He must be doing this for you," Layla muttered."Layla, did your Daddy really cry?" Avery could not believe it. She had always thought Elliot to be strong."It's true!" Layla replied loudly. "Mommy, why would I lie to you? I saw it myself.""Oh…" Avery still found it hard to believe. "Layla, could your Daddy be crying about something else?""What?" Layla was stunned for a while. "I-I don't know either, but there is nothing for him to cry about in our family! Robert has been good today. He played for a while outside before going to bed. Only I made him angry.""Layla, don't be sad. Your Daddy will know the truth one day," said Avery, consoling Layla. "It's late. Have you showered?""Not yet…""Then, go shower and go to bed. When you finish your homework, take Robert to see me. By then, if there is anything, I will tell you two in person," Avery said in a relaxed tone, trying to ca
