Chapter 470


    Shea was worried they did not understand her, then added, "My brother bought this gift for Avery."


    Avery closed the box, then lifted her eyes at Elliot and asked, "What''s the meaning of this?"


    The spark of war was instantly ignited.


    Mike immediately dragged Shea and the children out of the house


    It would be bad for the children''s mental health to watch their parents fight too much.


    Once Shea was out of the house, she turned to La and Hayden and exined, "My brother may


    have bought Avery’s gift, but I was the one who got you your presents. It was me! You have to ept


    them!"


    "Sure," La said then began to open up her gift.


    On the other hand, Hayden had his eyes pinned in the direction of the living room.


    "Rx, Big H! Your mom''s pregnant with that dirtbag''s baby, so there''s no way he''d pick on her!" Mike


    said as he tried tofort the boy. "Let''s go somewhere to y!"


    "I''m not going out," Hayden responded.


    He was still worried about his mother.


    Shea took Hayden''s hand, then said, "Let''s go out and y! My brother won''t pick on Avery. When he


    was picking a present out of her today, he wanted to buy everything for her! He really loves her!"


    Her words gave Hayden goosebumps!


    That b*st*rd Elliot Foster knew how to love a woman?


    He refused to believe it!


    In the living room, Elliot took a seat on the couch across from Avery.


    He had expected Avery to reject his gift.


    Otherwise, he would not have asked Shea toe along.


    Avery probably would have epted the gift if Shea had not let her tongue slip.


    "Is this gift some kind ofpensation for carrying your baby?" Avery asked as she slid the gift box


    towards him. "What else could it be?"


    "Do I need a reason to buy you a gift?"


    "Why would you buy me something without a reason?" Avery retorted.

    "Shea didn''t have a reason to buy presents for your children, either." "You''re not Shea, neither am I a


    five year old child."


    Seeing her stubborn attitude, Elliot had no choice but to correct himself.


    "Since your daughter likes it, then give it to her!"


    "My daughter doesn''t take sloppy seconds," Avery said.


    Elliot was at a loss for words.


    "Is there anything else?" Avery asked.


    She might as well have told him he should leave.


    Elliot took a look outside.


    Mike had already taken Shea


    "I''ll wait here for Shea toe back," he said inly.


    Avery was bewildered.


    Elliot''s attitude towards her was aplete one eighty from what it used to be.


    She was already used to his past self. She would even go as far as to consider their past dynamics


    normal.


    "Did you get a gift for Zoe the second she got pregnant with your child, too?" Avery said as she could


    not help but stab at him with her words. "Our rtionship remains unchanged whether I''m pregnant


    with your child or not. There''s no need for this confusing behavior. It only makes me feel disrespected."


    Elliot''s treatment towards her waspletely different before and after she got pregnant.


    Did he think that being pregnant made her a different person?


    She hated the idea of gaining honor and respect through one''s own offspring!


    The child she was carrying was not Elliot’s alone, but it was hers, too.


    Even if the child ended up being raised by Elliot, she refused to sit back and be uninvolved.


    Avery’s words made Elliot frown.


    Bringing up Zoe probably meant that she was bothered by the fact that Zoe once carried his child!


    In Avery''s eyes, Elliot was damaged goods. That was something that would never change.


    No matter what he did, she would never let herself be affected.


    Elliotughed at himself for thinking that they would be closer now that Avery was pregnant with


    his child.
