In the afternoon, Avery had bought two pots of daffodils at the flower market. Then she took them with her to her mother's house. As it was not five o'clock yet, Laura should still be at work, but Avery found that she was busy in the kitchen."Mom, did you get off work early today?" Avery changed her slippers and put the two pots of flowers on the living room table.Laura came out of the kitchen, looking a little embarrassed."Avery, I'm not working anymore," Laura explained. "My friend's daughter-in-law hired a more professional nanny.""Mom, don't be sad," murmured Avery as she hugged her mother. Laura chuckled. "I'm fine… Why did you buy two pots of flowers?"Avery glanced at the simple rented house and replied, "I happened to pass by the flower market, so I bought two pots.""Okay… Avery, don't worry about my job. I can always look for another one.""Mom, you don't need to. Just rest at home!" Avery said. Then, she took out her bank card from her bag and handed it to her m

The doctor and Rosalie were also in the room, and they were standing by the window talking about Elliot's health. However, Avery's feet were as heavy as lead, and she could not bring herself to enter the room. When Chelsea turned around to leave the bed with the basin in her hand, she immediately caught sight of Avery standing outside the door."Avery! What are you doing here?!" Chelsea lowered her voice, afraid of waking Elliot. Then, she put the basin on the bedside table and strode toward Avery. Rosalie heard the noises and walked toward the door as well.Avery was afraid of waking Elliot, so she took a few steps toward the stairs, but Chelsea thought she was trying to escape and quickly approached her, blocking her way."Avery! Are you making a fool of Elliot?! If you don't like him, then let him go! If you do anything to hurt him again, I'll never let you go!" Chelsea's eyes were full of hatred.Rosalie shouted sternly, "Avery, Elliot does not want to divorce you because he

At ten in the morning, a Rolls-Royce stopped in front of the gate of an old community house. The door of the car flung open, and a tall figure alighted the vehicle. Elliot was wearing a long navy blue quilted coat, a gray scarf, and a pair of brand new leather boots. Even though he was dressed warmly, his face was pale and haggard. His cold and noble temperament was incompatible with everything around him.The driver and bodyguard followed Elliot, carrying expensive gifts.Laura trotted from the kitchen to open the door when she heard a knock. She was shocked to see Elliot."Why are you here?" Laura froze, then she opened the door, urging, "Come in! I heard that you are sick. Are you okay?"Although it was early winter, it was not cold enough to wear a coat.Elliot glanced at the clean floor and hesitated. "Do we need to remove our shoes?"Laura immediately shook her head. "No, there's no need! Come in!"She invited Elliot inside and saw the gift boxes the driver and bodyguard w

"Avery! Have you forgotten whose wife you are?!" Elliot clenched her struggling little hands tightly and pinned them above her head. "I told you to stay away from Charlie! Don't challenge my patience!"It had been a while since Avery had seen him this irritable and crazy. He looked so weak, but his strength was frightening. She did not dare resist him, as the more she fought, the crazier he became. Avery lied down quietly for the sake of the children she carried within her. She waited for him to vent his dissatisfaction. "Why aren't you saying anything?" Elliot's burning gaze watched Avery's face. His fingers rubbed her cheeks, finally slipping from her eyebrows to behind her ears."What do you want me to say? What do you want to hear? I'll say it for you." She said.The anger in Elliot's heart was instantly extinguished."Avery, am I really unforgivable?" Elliot's voice was hoarse and soft, his fingers sieved through her hair to gently clasp her in his palms. His body was a li

An hour later, the driver arrived with all of Elliot's necessities. He had even brought a sumptuous dinner. Mrs. Cooper used lunch boxes and thermal insulation containers to pack dinners for at least three people."Miss Tate, this is Mr. Elliot's medicine. Thank you for your hard work tonight!" The driver carefully handed the medicine to Avery and then got off work.Avery sat on the sofa, looking at Elliot's things on the table, lost in thought.Was she too soft-hearted?! She should have driven him away by noon! That way, it would not be so troublesome!Suddenly, a coughing sound came from the bedroom. Avery sighed, took Elliot's medicine, and pushed the bedroom door open. It was just the two of them at home now, so she left the door open to ventilate the room. Elliot had showered and changed into clean clothes. However, the bed was a mess."Do you have any hot water?" Elliot was a little thirsty. Avery put the medicine on the bedside table and went out to get him warm water
