If Avery were to stop Elliot from seeing Ruby and her child, it would be tragically inhumane! "Mike, the baby looks a lot like Layla," Elliot explained his reason. "lI can show you the photo, but you can’t tell Avery. I'm afraid that she will be sad." "Hehehe! I'm not going to see them! You have screwed things up so badly, of course, you'll find an excuse for yourself! You're barking up the wrong tree! I'm with Avery! If you don't cut off ties with Ruby and that baby, Avery will do it sooner or later! You cannot have the best of both worlds!" Hearing Mike's reprimands, Elliot swallowed his words.
Even Mike already had such a huge reaction. If Avery knew about it, her reaction would surely not be any smaller than his.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSince Elliot stopped talking, Mike slightly regained his sensibilities. "Did you say that the child looks like Layla? Are you sure you're not joking? How could your child with Ruby look like Layla?" "Ruby showedthe child's ultrasound photo," Elliot explained.
"Oh! She showed you an ultrasound photo that looks like Layla. Don't you know that photos could be faked? How are you sure that the photo she showed you is real? Can you use that smart brain of yours to think? How could the child you had with Ruby look like Layla?" Elliot was silent.
"This is the best joke | have heard so far! You have been completely fooled by Ruby! | know that Layla is pretty and talented. You like her a lot, but you can't just possibly think that Layla could be copied and pasted!" Mike mocked.
Elliot cto a realization. Mike was right.
How was there not a possibility that the photos were faked? Even the paternity test that Ruby sent him could be faked too! Before the child was born, everything was unreal. Unless the child was born and he saw the child looking like Layla with his own eyes, then only will he believe it.
"Mike, is Avery at your place right now?" Elliot asked.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"What are you planning to do? She is currently sleeping. She looked like she hasn't slept the entire night." Mike did not want Elliot to c>c,:PIS= disturb her rest. Elliot could not control his emotions. He wanted to see her immediately, explain and apologize to her.
After Mike finished his call, he walked to the door of the guest room and gently pushed the door open to have a peek inside.
Avery's back was facing the door. He could not see her face, but Mike thought that she must be asleep because he stood by the door for stand saw her lying there quietly without moving.
Mike shut the door and returned to the living area. He brewed stea while waiting for Elliot to come.
Sure enough, within half an hour, Elliot appeared in front of his house.
Mike opened the door for him and said, "Is Ruby still in the country?" "She has already left." Elliot strode into the living area. "Which room is Avery in?" "I've already said that she is resting. Are you going to wake her up?" Mike immediately went forward and stopped Elliot.
At that moment, Avery opened the door to the guest room and walked out.
