Avery was speechless. She almost choked on his words.
"What?" He looked at her seriously. "Didn't you say Hayden's spending a lot now? How much pocket money do you give him every
month? Why don't | give you smoney and you transfer it to him?"
Avery shook her head. After pressing the button on her room floor, she secretly swallowed.
"Elliot, you don't have to worry about my life and Hayden's."
"I know you have money. You're usually quite thrifty. The money you got from selling the company should be enough to see you
through your entire life. And you can take on ssurgical cases and earn even more money." Then, Elliot changed the topic. "As
for Hayden, as long as he wants to get money, he will be able to get it, but..."
Avery looked up at him. She wanted to know what he wanted to say.
"Avery, you returned to Aryadelle to look for Ivy, leaving Hayden alone in Bridgedale, that isn't goood. Hayden is at an age where
he is going through a rebellious phase, like most teenagers. Without his parents by his side, he is sure to make plenty of mistakes.

enters society in the future, no matter what he does, as long as it's legal, I'll support him."
Elliot told her what he was thinking. Avery could feel the hidden fatherly love in Elliot. Every tElliot spoke to her properly and
when he treated his children sincerely, her hatred for him would naturally lessen.
"Since you know he can make a living, why do you still need to give him money? You humiliated him the last tyou gave him
money," said Avery, revealing Hayden's feelings. "Perhaps he has already thrown away the card that you gave him. You better file
a missing card when you return to Aryadelle! He would never spend a single cent of yours."
"Even if | have suspected as much, hearing it from you still hurts."
"What is there to be upset about? This is not the first tyou saw him doing something like this. You know how he
flees about you." The lift reached their floor.
The lift doors slowly opened, ;c->XLR= they cout from the lift.
"Are our bodyguards staying in the sroom?" Avery suddenly thought about this.
"It seems so. Why?"
"Isn't it a little inconvenient for them to stay together? After all, they don't need to look after each other. Wouldn't it be better to let
them each have a room?" Although Avery did not explain why it would be better for them to live alone, Elliot thought about it
himself.
"This bodyguard has been with you for a few years already, right? You're so thoughtful when it comes to him. Also, he behaves
boldly with you. When | wouldn't dare disturb you, he rushed over and pulled you out of your room..."
"Are you sure you want to be jealous of my bodyguard?" Avery looked at him in disbelief. Seeing how his lips moved but he said
nothing, she said, "Unlock the door!"
He mechanically took out the keycard and swiped the door open.
"Can | stay in the room closest to you?" said Elliot once they entered the room.

Avery furrowed her brows. "What do you mean?"
"Our rooms are too far apart. I'm worried that something might happen to you, orat night. At least we could look out for each
other."
"Then, let's get our bodyguards to cand stay with us! My bodyguard will stay on my side, and your bodyguard will stay at your
side. This way, if anything happens to us at night, the bodyguards can care for us."
Avery chuckled, ignoring the surprise on his face. She entered her room and closed the door.
After entering the room, she placed her hand on the doorknob. She wondered whether she should lock the door or not.
She felt him outside her door.
If she locked her door, he would surely hear her locking the door.
She hesitated for a while. In the end, she did not lock the door.
Elliot should not be entering. Even if he had the urge to enter, he would surely knock on the door.
If he were to barge in without knocking... She doubted that he would do such a thing.
