"You're right." Avery looked at her. "I will always place my children and me first. A selfish person like me has no right to say anything about you."Tammy said, "Avery, don't feel aggrieved. You have nothing to feel aggrieved about. You have never been through hardship."Avery said, "Yes, what I have been through is nothing compared to you all."Tammy did not want to hear Avery talk about this. Even hearing her voice annoyed her. They were not like that before. To put it bluntly, Tammy could not get past that incident. Although she said that the humiliation that she went through had nothing to do with Avery, her heart could not let it go.If she did not know Avery, she would not have been kidnapped. She could have grown old with Jun, instead of hurting each other.Tammy stormed off. She got in the car and quickly drove off.She was in too much pain! She has already decided to turn over a new leave. Why did Avery have to choose that moment to tell her about Jun?Tammy cried al

There was a knock on Elliot's door. Then, it was pushed open.Ben entered. "Elliot, it's almost the New Year. How do you plan to celebrate? Will you be home or out on holiday?"Elliot did not look up. His tone was calm. "I'll be spending it at home.""Then, I'll come over to your place to have dinner! I'm not going back to see my parents." Ben walked over to Elliot's desk and sat down. "Chad's culinary skills are quite good. We'll get him to cook."Elliot look at him and said directly, "You all don't need to accompany me."Ben scratched his head. "It's not only to accompany you. My parent's house is too cold. They are on a vacation on a tropical island right now! I don't want to be their third wheel."Elliot said, "Your parents have such a good relationship, why don't you get married?"Ben sighed. "If I get married, that means I have to bear a huge responsibility. I think being single is quite good. I get to have fun with whomever I want.""You still can't get over Chelsea, rig
Chapter 800
After seeing the wounds on her face, Chelsea was silent.Then, she let out a maniacal laugh! Her right face was still smooth and exquisite, but her left face was mulch. It was as if some parts of it were missing, half of her face was caved in!Her wound was much uglier than she had imagined! A million times uglier!Her ego was badly wounded. All the grievance she received in the past was not as great as the harm her wounded face brought to her! No wonder the brother that loved her the most in the past would suddenly have a change of attitude.Even her mother, Jeanette, could not help but take a step back after seeing the wound on her face."Charlie, you get discharged first!" Jeanette retracted her gaze. She did not want to spend another second longer there. "If she wants to stay in the hospital, let her be! You don't have to deal with her.""Mom, how heartbreaking is it to say this in front of her! Although she is an ugly one right now, I will never forget how pretty she was
Chapter 801
The reporter asked, "Layla, do you have any New Years' wishes?""I wish to receive a lot of beautiful gifts…""Do you have any happy things that happened to you recently?""I never had a good relationship with my father previously, but it's getting better with him. It's great to have a father."Elliot's eyes were a little wet at that point. He never thought that Layla would mention him in her interview. In her heart, he must be someone important to her already!The reporter continued, "Is your father in the industry too? Is he here tonight?"Layla said, "He isn't in the industry. Our relationship only got better a little, we're not there yet! I still have to evaluate his performance in the future!""Then, what do you hope he does in the future?""I have never thought about it, but he has to at least not do things that would make me sad. Also, he can't do bad things. If not, it would embarrass me."The video ended there.Layla's last sentence rang in his mind for a long time.

Avery thought that she misheard, so she did not answer this question. Turns out, Mike did not give up on it. He asked once more."Mike, why would you ask this question?" Avery was stumped. "Did he do something that makes him seem that way?"Mike shook his head. "I'm not close to him, so I'm asking you." "If you're not close to him, then why would you doubt his intelligence? If someone were to doubt your intelligence, would you be happy?" Although Avery was still giving Elliot the cold shoulder, she would not want to see him be talked down upon.Mike promised that he would not tell Elliot's secret, so he tried hard to come up with a reason."He and Shea are twins. Shea has the condition, would he have it too?""They are fraternal twins. You can treat it as if they are two completely different beings. Their blood types are different too," Avery explained.Mike might look like he understood it, but he was still filled with curiosity.Why was Elliot's condition cured when he w

Elliot called Mike. Mike's phone was turned off. He was worried about the children's safety, so he could only ask Avery.Avery replied, [Hmm.]After replying to Elliot, she placed her phone down and took Robert's clothes off.She wanted to pretend that she did not care about him, but after taking Robert's clothes off, she could not help but pick her phone up again to see if he had sent any new messages.Naturally, there were none.Avery disappointedly placed her phone down and carried Robert to the bathroom. An hour or so later, Mrs. Cooper came to take Robert away.Avery picked up her phone once again. She went through Elliot's messages once more, also going back through their chat history.The more she saw the more upset she was. She was indeed a little selfish and impulsive.Shea's passing was a huge blow to him. Perhaps, she should have been more patient and forgiving to him and not gotten into a fight with him and then brought Robert to Bridgedale.She wanted to send hi

The call soon connected. Elliot's low and mesmerizing voice came through. "Layla?""It's me," Avery said awkwardly, "Why did you transfer money to me?"Elliot said, "Those are for the children."Avery was even more awkward. "If you want to give them money, can't you give them in person? Why do you have to send it to me?"Elliot explained, "Did you not see the message Layla sent to me? She sent me a voice message greeting with your phone."Avery was speechless. She wanted to dig a hole for herself and hide in it. She only saw the transfers. She did not scroll up.She tapped open their chat and scrolled up. She saw that she sent a voice message over. It must have been Layla.Avery took a deep breath. She was feeling so awkward she was blushing. She did not know what to do."Mommy!" Right at that moment, Layla ran into her room. Seeing Avery holding her phone, Layla immediately covered her mouth with her hand.Avery looked at her and passed her the phone. "Your father."After

"Then, forget about it! It's so cold at night!" Layla gave up on that idea. "Let's just see Daddy's fireworks!""Hmm! Go ahead!" Avery moved away from the camera. After she left, the light in Elliot's eyes vanished too.…Avery came out of her room and found Mike. "Mike, call Tammy!""I've already done it," Mike said with an expression that says he understood her. "I got Big H to call her. She said she would come over soon."Avery said, "Thank goodness for you.""Hahaha! Tammy might be angry with you, but could she be angry with the children?" Mike measured Avery up in her new dress. "All of you are wearing red except me. Am I not family?""Don't you hate the color red?" Avery retorted, "It's because I treat you like family, so I remembered your likes and dislikes."Mike was speechless.A while later, Tammy arrived. She came alone."Where's Aunt Mary?" Avery pretended as if the fight never happened. She asked calmly, "Didn't you say you're bringing your boyfriend? I even prep
