Joanna’s face turned red and hot as she listened to what Avery said while standing next to
her.
“We’re all embarrassed when you say that.” Mrs. Picard sighed that Avery was just like
what her daughter said, she had no airs at all, and she was full of enthusiasm and vitality,
not like a wealthy lady at all.
“What’s there to be embarrassed about! Joanna is really a very nice girl! Our whole family
likes her very much.” Avery said.
Joanna brought a chair over for Avery to sit on.
Avery sat down and looked at Joanna: “Joanna, Hayden didn’t go home to sleep yesterday,
was he accompanying you in the hospital?”
Avery asked this because she wanted to determine where her son and Joanna had
progressed.
Joanna immediately shook her head: “No. He said there is a house near the hospital, and
he should live there.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtJoanna couldn’t lie.
If she did not tell Avery where Hayden slept last night, Avery would speculate wildly and
possibly return to Hayden to inquire.
So Joanna simply told Avery to make Avery feel at ease.
“He does seem to have a house near this hospital. I almost forgot if you didn’t tell me!”
Avery laughed loudly, “Joanna, you see, he even told you this, which means he didn’t take
you seriously as an outsider.”
Joanna blushed even more.
If Avery knew that Joanna and her mother were living in that villa now, she didn’t know
how she would react.
“My son has been boring since he was a child, especially when it comes to dealing with
outsiders. He is not very flexible. But he is still very clever in doing things, but he doesn’t
like to deal with interpersonal relationships. Joanna, I can see that he still likes you a little.
If you can take the initiative, maybe the two of you can succeed!” Avery took Joanna’s
hand and pinned her hopes on her.
Outside the ward door.
Hayden came to see Mrs. Picard with Gia in his arms.
Because when Hayden was talking to his mother on the phone last night, his mother said
that she would come to see Mrs. Picard on the day of Mrs. Picard’s operation, and Mrs.
Picard’s operation was scheduled for tomorrow, so Hayden didn’t think that his mother
would come today.
Hayden got out of the elevator with Gia in his arms and strode to the intensive care unit
area.
His attention was all on Gia, so he didn’t notice the bodyguard standing outside the door
of the ward.
It was the bodyguard who saw him and called out, “Boss Tate.”
Hayden heard the familiar voice, and immediately looked at the bodyguard.
Hayden: “Why are you here?!”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe bodyguard was his mom’s.
Normally, wherever the mother was, there was her bodyguard.
Could it be…
The bodyguard confirmed Hayden’s guess: “Your mother is inside.”
After a pause, the bodyguard looked at Gia in Hayden’s arms and asked, “Who is this?”
Hayden was speechless.
Hayden hugged his daughter in one hand, and walked aside with the bodyguard with the
other.
“Don’t tell my mother that you’ve seen me.” Hayden told the bodyguard, “This child is
also mine, but they are unaware of it. I haven’t decided how to tell them. Did you
understand that you are not allowed to tell them before I tell them?”
Seeing Hayden’s serious face, the bodyguard nodded sharply.
The bodyguard’s task was to protect Avery’s safety. The bodyguard dared not talk casually
about their family’s affairs.
After explaining to the bodyguard, Hayden immediately left with Gia in his arms.
Avery stayed in the ward for about an hour before leaving.
