NovelApp"Listen, Elliot. Even if you spout all those wild exaggerations aboutout there, | would never becsomeone like that." Avery lay down on the bed, then said, "At the very least, I'm never knitting a sweater again.” "They don't know you. | just wanted them to know that you didn't climb any ladders to get to me." Elliot wrote down all of his passwords on the piece of paper, then handed it over to her. "For your perusal, Honey." Avery accepted his reasoning.
She picked up the piece of paper, went through it in detail, then noticed something that stood out.

"The two of you are the most important women in my life." Avery's cheeks flushed. Then, she asked," Are your sons not important?" "Not relatively as important." Elliot sat by the bed, then added, "You and Layla are much more thoughtful. Our sons just get angry atall the time." "Robert has never gotten mad at you. You can't just decide that sons aren't as good just because of your relationship with Hayden." "It's not that | don't think sons are good. | just think our sons should becindependent rather than depend on me." Elliot walked over to the window and pulled back the sheer, white curtains. "I'll help them out before they're of age. Once they're no longer minors, | won't coddle them anymore." Avery immediately retaliated, "Even if they're no longer minors, they would still be under twenty years old! Are you sure you won't care for them anymore once they're of age?" "I'll help them out if they ask for it. If they don't, then | won't." Elliot took off his coat, hung it, and sat next to Avery. "I don’t want our sons to beca loser like Cole." Avery folded the piece of paper with the passwords, then kept it in her purse. "Not every child from wealthy families turns out like Cole. Of course, | respect your decision. If the children don't ask for our help, there's no reason for us to get too involved.
Hayden's got a strong personality. | doubt he'd want us to get involved in his life either.” "That's true." "Are you sure you don't want to invite your brother to the wedding?" Avery lay down, then wrapped her arms around Elliot. "You invited all your other relatives. Wouldn't he be upset if he found out?" "I cut ties with him a long tago," Elliot said coldly. "I won't invite him just because he knows my secrets." "I suppose. It doesn’t matter even if we don't invite him," Avery said "Get srest. I'll wake you in a bit." Elliot grunted in response, :b-;TMY= his breathing very quickly settled down as he drifted off to sleep.
Avery's heart ached as she watched his haggard face, and she hugged him tightly. She thought of how he had departed from his usual character of a man of few words to one who sang her praises to the moon just so she would not have to suffer their misunderstandings.
From the moment they had cleared things up between them, she could clearly feel Elliot's deep feelings for her.
From now on, she would not disappoint his love for her.
That evening, Avery dropped by Starry River Villa to pick up Mrs. Cooper and Robert.

She unintentionally glanced out the window and saw a familiar face.
"Do you see that man in the blue shirt, Mrs.
Cooper? Doesn't he look like Cole?" Avery asked.
Mrs. Cooper looked out the window and carefully studied the man in the blue shirt.
"I think it's him! Did Master Elliot invite him?" "He didn't. | just asked Elliot about it this afternoon. Elliot said he didn't invite Henry and Cole." Avery frowned, then mumbled,” What's he doing here? | don't think I've seen the man he's talking to." "Henry and Cole won't do something to mess up the wedding tomorrow, would they?" Mrs. Cooper said with furrowed brows as a bad feeling rose inside her.
When Avery heard Mrs. Cooper's words, her calmness instantly broke, and she beca frenzied mess of emotion!
