In one of the small towns of Aryadelle.Mike's sudden appearance caught Chad off guard! Mike brought over a bunch of expensive gifts. He greeted Chad's parents enthusiastically. They also passionately hosted him.After exchanging greetings, Chad got Mike to immediately leave, but Mike refused."Is that woman that you're on a blind date with still here?" Mike said nosily, "How dare you go on a blind date while I'm not around!"Chad said condescendingly, "You came all the way here because of that? How lame! We only met for a while then we left! I did not even ask her for her contact!""Who's the lame one? When are you going to come clean to your parents! Look at how cowardly you are! I'll help you do it!""F*ck! My mom has high blood pressure! I told you about this before!" Chad could not get Mike to leave, so he could only push him into his room."I know your mother has high blood pressure, but this can't be cured. Are you just going to lie to them forever?" Mike raised his eye
A minute later, the car stopped by the roadside urgently.Chad got out of the car and ran home! Mike punched the steering wheel! He could not ask Chad to give up on his family, but he also did not want to be the one that was given up on.He felt aggrieved, so he took his phone out. He wanted to call Avery to complain. Before dialing, he suddenly remembered that Bridgedale has a time difference. At that hour, Avery must have already been in bed.He did not want to disturb Avery's sleep, but it would be fine to disturb Elliot.He sent Elliot a message. About an hour later, Elliot gave him a call."Is Avery asleep?" Mike asked."She just fell asleep. What's up?" Elliot was having the call in the bathroom. Even so, his voice was very soft."Chad's mother fainted due to high blood pressure. I caused it." Mike was smoking gloomily. "I'm guessing Chad hates me to death right now.""He told you about this before.""Yes! But I can't just stay silent about our relationship just becaus
Having a desk in her bedroom, Elliot guessed that Avery must have spent countless nights there.Her desk was clean and tidy. Her documents were placed in folders. There was only a laptop on her desk. Elliot wanted to know what Avery was currently busy on, so he casually took a brown envelope out from her folder.The brown envelope wrote 'Case Files'.He slowly opened it and took a stack of documents out."Elliot…" Avery's gentle voice suddenly rang out from behind. "What are you doing?"She suddenly woke up and saw a blurry figure standing by her desk. She thought she was hallucinating, so she looked closer at it for a while.After making sure she was not in a dream, Avery sat up. Elliot quickly placed the brown envelope back into its original place."Don't you have a study room?" Elliot quickly collected his thoughts and walked over to her. "I noticed you placed a study desk here."Avery rubbed her eyes. "I do have a study room, but I prefer to stay in the bedroom. I could l
Avery was a little stunned.Elliot did not reply to her question? When Elliot reached his arm over, about to hug her, she pushed him away. "Why didn't you answer my question? Can you do it or not? If you can't, don't hug me."The request she made was not at all too much to ask for.All she asked was that he spends more time with the children whenever he was free. If she could do it, why could he not?If he could not do such a simple thing, he should not have children at all."They are my children. Of course, I'm willing to do anything for them." Elliot hugged her around the waist tightly. "Your questions made me feel guilty."Hearing his explanations, Avery let out a sigh of relief."Elliot, next time when I ask you a question, no matter what question is it, you have to answer me." Avery looked at him seriously. "If you don't, my mind goes wild. To others, I can be calm and logical, but to you, I lose control of my emotions easily.""Hmm." Elliot did not dare to look her in t
"Even if he doesn't understand, won't you be shy?""If I'm shy, would he be born?" His retort made Avery blush. She put on her clothes and quickly entered the washroom.Downstairs, Tammy and Layla were munching on snacks and chatting."Does your father not want me around? After I have arrived, he doesn't even come out," Tammy teased.Layla immediately shook her head. "Of course, Daddy welcomes you. He must be in Mommy's room watching her sleep!"Tammy said, "What is there to see? Won't he be afraid that he would wake your Mommy up?"Layla scratched her head, trying to think of a retort for Elliot.At that moment, Avery walked over."Tammy, since when did you come? I had too much fun last night, so I overslept." She walked over to Tammy and explained."All you did was just see fireworks. Why are you so tired?" Tammy looked at her interestingly. "What's going on with Elliot? Why is he avoiding me?""He said that he was afraid you might be unhappy seeing him, so he's in the room
Mrs. Scarlet immediately brought some water for him. Avery reached out to pat Elliot on the back. "Eat slower. Did you choke?"Tammy looked at Elliot suspiciously. She found him strange. Her woman's sixth sense tells her to ask him, "Elliot, I find you shifty. Did you connect Jun with his fiancee?"When Tammy asked this, Avery immediately retracted her hands from Elliot's back.Elliot was halfway drinking water, because of this question, he was forced to stop.He forcefully swallowed and denied, "No…I do not know his fiancee.""Oh, then why are you so worked up?" Tammy harrumphed and looked at Avery. "If Elliot were to get married to another woman, of course, I won't be calm! It would be respectful enough of me to not crash his wedding!"Avery nodded. "I know, so I don't think I could also see Jun getting married to another woman. Tammy, forgive me!""Jun and Elliot are different," Tammy said, "I was the one that dumped Jun, which was why he got married to another woman. I don
"Shall we take the children?" Elliot asked.Avery looked at Elliot and asked, "Do you want to take the children?"She could not understand him."I do." Although carrying them was not easy, it was joyous to spend time with them. No wonder people said that children were a sweet burden."But I don't want to take the children along today. I want to take you to a place." Avery said."Where are we going?" He put his hands in his pocket. "We have to tell the children, right! If they don't want to come with us, we don't have to bring them, but what if they do?""Let's go to my college. Wait for me here. I'll go tell the children," Avery said and headed to their room. A moment later, she walked quickly back to him and held his arm. "Layla wants us to bring good food back for her. Let's go!"Avery drove and brought Elliot to her college. Her college was a world-famous medical school."When you came here to study, you were quite late in your pregnancy, right?" Elliot walked next to her on
Avery looked at the shimmery diamond ring on her hand. Her eyes turned wet. She could not control her emotions. She ran into his arms and hugged him tightly."Since when did you buy the ring? We have been together every day. I didn't realize that you prepared a gift beforehand."Avery thought that he did not know that it was Valentine's Day that day. From morning until the moment that she reminded him that it was Valentine's Day, he did not look strange or behave out of the ordinary."When I bought the necklace for you, I had a look at the rings too," Elliot explained, "It's hard to not know what today is."A few days ago, Valentine's Day promotions started taking place. This morning, all news regarding Valentine's Day was pushed to his phone."If I didn't mention Valentine's Day just now, when were you planning to give me the ring?" Avery let go of him. She looked at his handsome face with reddened eyes.Elliot looked at her affectionately. He said in a hoarse voice, "I know tha
