Avery lowered her head and did not answer.
"Don’t be sad, Avery." Tammy patted her back without asking any further. "I'll treat you to a nice big feast! Whatever happens, you need to always believe that you can overcall your difficulties. In my eyes, there's no one else in the world who is stronger than you." "I don't feel like eating.” "You can't just let yourself starve! Why don't | order takeout?!" Tammy took out her phone. "I've been trying to get pregnant recently, so if you don't eat, | won't either.” "If you're trying to get pregnant, you should ask Jun to quit smoking and drinking." "I did! | forbade him from pulling all-nighters now too. It's just a little hard at night because he can't sleep.” Tammy complained.
"You'll get used to it." "You're right. We just need to get used to it. Even if you and Elliot really broke up, you don't need to feel as if the sky is about to collapse. You've broken up countless times now, and if the sky really did collapse, there'd be no sky left right now." Avery could not help but chuckle after Tammy comforted her.

They knew that he and Avery had quarreled, and it could not have been a more obvious sign when he neither phoned Avery nor chthe previous night.
Moreover, his expression looked extremely sour even though he had finally returned.
He did not even have that gentle and loving smile he used to have when he saw Robert.
"Master Elliot, Avery waited a long tfor you last night," Mrs. Cooper said anxiously.
Elliot's expression was cold and his voice was stern. "All you need to do is take good care of the children. You don't need to concern yourself with anything else.” Mrs. Cooper lowered her head immediately.
Elliot strode upstairs.
That evening, Avery went to the elementary school to pick up Layla.

After Layla went to Robert, Avery walked up to Mrs. Cooper and asked in a low voice, "Did Elliot cback?" Mrs. Cooper nodded ;h%=TMS? shook her head again. "He cback at noon and left almost as soon as he came, without even bothering to take a sip of water." "Why was he back? And why didn't you tell me? | have something to ask him but he's avoidingcompletely right now," Avery whispered. "How are we going to solve our issue if he continues like this?" Mrs. Cooper said understanding”, "I told him you were waiting for him. But he..." She shook her head and did not finish her sentence because whatever she could say would almost certainly harm Avery.
"What did he do when he cback, then? Did he see the children?" Avery glanced at the two children from the corner of her eyes.
Layla held Robert's hand and wanted to bring him to wash his hands in the bathroom.
"No." Mrs. Cooper said dejectedly. "He only glanced briefly at Robert and didn't even look directly at him. He cback and took sstuff from upstairs. | don’t know what he took, though.” Avery walked up the stairs as soon as she heard that and wondered what Elliot had cback to get.
What could he possibly take if the two of them were to break up? Could it be his luggage? Or simportant information about work? Avery's heart sank with every step she took!
