Chapter 553


    Avery choked up, "I want to leave this hospital.”


    Elliot did not dare further agitate her. He turned and looked for the doctor.


    "Miss Tate, if you insist, you can be discharged, but you need to go through a checkup. If all is fine, I''ll


    immediately let you discharge."


    Soon, after a series of checkups, the doctor gave her the approval for discharge. Once she returned


    home, Avery shut herself in her room. Before discharging, she did an ultrasound. The ultrasound

    showed that the child was two weeks smaller than it should be.


    Ever since she arrived at Bridgedale, her child stopped developing. This was a terrible sign. The doctor


    suggested she abort the child, but Avery could not ept this result.


    "Why don''t we find her a therapist!" Mike was discussing with Elliot in the living area. "The doctor said


    that her being so down is notpletely because of the child. I think the doctor is right. Everything that


    happened to her with David Grimes was enough to destroy her mentally."


    Elliot looked in the direction of Avery''s room and said, "Let''s give her some time. I believe that she can


    "Okay, then! The child in her..."


    "Since she wants to give birth to it, let her do it."


    Mike furrowed his brows. "What if the child is unhealthy? What if it''s an idiot?"


    Elliot looked at Mike with reddened eyes,"


    So, what if it''s an idiot?"


    Mike pursed his lips and stopped talking.


    Suddenly, Avery''s room door opened and she came out of her room. They looked at her.


    "I want to go see Wesley.” Avery lowered her gaze. Her tone was cold. She was still weak. Although


    she could walk on her own, it seemed like she would fall over at any moment.


    "I''ll take you," Elliot quickly walked over to her and held onto her arms, helping her.


    Avery pushed Elliot away. She looked at him. "Elliot, if our child really is an idiot, I will not let him bring


    you down. I will bring the child up on my own."


    Elliot was stunned. Did Avery overhear their conversation a moment ago? He did not call the child an


    idiot. He did not like words like that. Why did Avery have to use phrases such as bringing him down?


    Mike saw how the atmosphere between the two of them tensed. He immediately walked over to Avery.


    "Avery, I''ll bring you to go see Wesley!"


    Mike grabbed her h=d"


    On the journey to the hospital, Mike secretly snuck nces at her. He wanted to say something, but he


    hesitated.


    "I heard what you two said in the living area." Avery broke the silence.


    "Oh, he didn''t say that he doesn''t want the child..."


    "I know." Avery''s eyes turned sore. She looked out of the window. "The first time I met Shea, she had


    no identity or friends. Elliot built her a fairytale kingdom. She was the only person in it.


    Mike seemed to have understood what Avery was talking about.


    "Elliot has never publicly acknowledged his rtionship with Shea. He also did not want the others to


    know about Shea. He seems to love Shea a lot, but I don''t see the basic human respect he has for


    Shea." Avery''s tone was t. "If our child has issues and I let him bring the child up, the child would be


    the next Shea."


    "Avery, don''t be so pessimistic. Your child will be fine! It might even be healthy!" Mikeforted her,


    "Don''t get upset for problems that have yet toe."


    "If his thought was the same as yours, he would not have let me abort the child." Avery could never


    forget how cold he looked.


    Mike said in shock, "He got you to abort the child?"
