"Do you remember what happened after you got drunk last night, Avery?" Elliot casually switched the subject.Avery's face instantly flushed a crimson red."Mrs. Cooper already told me about it. You don't have to bring it up again.""You told me that three kids weren't enough for you, and that you wanted to have three more." Elliot chuckled lightly as he gazed at her reddened cheeks. "You said you wanted to have more kids for as long as you can. I said that would make you a sow, then…"Avery was shocked to the core by his absurd words."Then, you began to snort like a pig and even asked me if you did well." At this point, Elliot could no longer hold back his laughter. "If you dare get drunk ever again, I'm taking a video of the entire thing.""You're just making all of this up since I don't remember anything, right? How could I possibly want thirty kids? I wouldn't spout nonsense like that no matter how drunk I was!" Avery said with certainty."Do you still want to go on our hone

"Are you really not going to the hospital to get some scans done?" Avery gazed at Elliot with concern."I'm fine." He was sure about his physical condition. These were nothing but external injuries.He had yelped out in pain last night because Avery's so-called "light touch" was not light at all."You better be fine. Otherwise, if your health worsens when we're in Roburg, you're the one who's going to suffer. They don't have the best medical facilities there," Avery said, then could not help but pack more medical supplies in her suitcase."Rich people exist even in the poorest countries. As long as the wealthy exist, there would definitely be medical facilities to match. Even if it's a private hospital, they'd be able to treat a typical, small injury," Elliot said as he took the emergency first aid kit out of the suitcase. "Are you wishing for me to get sick by bringing all of these medical supplies?"Avery was rendered speechless by his words."Bring some more pretty dresses. Th

When Avery entered the drugstore, she saw the familiar silhouette flash by and enter the bathroom.She turned back anxiously to check if Elliot noticed anything.He was waiting for her at the drugstore's entrance at first, but when Avery turned back, she saw him walking into the store.She instantly felt nervous and uneasy but maintained her composure.For some reason, she was afraid of letting Elliot see Wesley.Avery felt afraid of having Elliot meet Wesley. Her worry did not stem solely from what he said, but it also came from the unshakable feeling she had of them getting into a fight if they met. "I'd like some medication for bruises and some painkillers. Please also get me a bottle of iodine," Avery said to the store clerk once Elliot was standing behind her.Elliot raised his brows and asked, "Why are you buying so much medicine?""I want to try out the medicine here." Avery forced a smile. "What if their medicine is good?""You're using me as a guinea pig.""It's not

Avery saw that Elliot was smiling, but she could hear the dissatisfied tone in his voice.If she was not texting Wesley, she would definitely give her phone to Elliot."I'm texting Tammy!" She found a seemingly reasonable excuse. "She asked if we've arrived yet, and the subject that she is talking about right now is a little sensitive." "What kind of sensitive subject?" Elliot accepted her explanation, but he was now curious about what she and Tammy were talking about."Women's subjects," Avery pushed through. "It's got to do with pregnancy. She thinks that I'm experienced because I've had three children, so… So I won't want to show you my phone. It'd be embarrassing if she asked something private!"Elliot nodded as he understood and respected her decision.He picked up his own phone and opened up the camera. He was prepared to show her his skills. Avery immediately posed with a peace sign.Elliot took the photo, then handed his phone to her.Avery took the phone, then purse

Wesley finally answered Avery's question.[You're right. She's still alive. But she's very sick right now. Instead of letting you guys worry, you were better off thinking she was dead. That way, you can all quickly go back to your peaceful lives. Don't tell Elliot about this, telling him would do nothing but upset him.]Avery felt her soul leave her body as she read the text message.Part of her suspected she was dreaming while another part of her recalled the way Elliot looked when he said Shea was alive."Who's texting you, Avery?" Elliot asked immediately when he noticed her dazed expression after he paid for the camera.Avery deleted all of Wesley's text messages, then came up with an excuse and said, "I gave a bad review on a dish set that I bought online because the quality was bad. The seller's trying to get me to change my review.""Give me their contact information or their shop name. I'll send someone to deal with them." Elliot saw how upset Avery looked and wanted to h
