Chapter 802


    Avery thought that she misheard, so she did not answer this question.


    Turns out, Mike did not give up on it. He asked once more.


    This is the property of N?-velDrama.Org.


    "Mike, why would you ask this question?" Avery was stumped. "Did he do something that makes him


    seem that way?"


    Mike shook his head. "I''m not close to him, so I''m asking you."


    "If you''re not close to him, then why would you doubt his intelligence? If someone were to doubt your


    intelligence, would you be happy?" Although Avery was still giving Elliot the cold shoulder, she would


    not want to see him be talked down upon.


    Mike promised that he would not tell Elliot''s secret, so he tried hard toe up with a reason.


    "He and Shea are twins. Shea has the condition, would he have it too?"


    "They are fraternal twins. You can treat it as if they are twopletely different beings. Their blood


    types are different too," Avery exined.


    Mike might look like he understood it, but he was still filled with curiosity.


    Why was Elliot''s condition cured when he was young? That great doctor not only cured Elliot''s


    conditionpletely but there were also no after-effects either.


    Elliot could have his achievements at that point, which proved that his intelligence was not only fine, but


    it was also better than many.


    "Did Elliot contact you?" Mike changed the subject.


    Avery asked, "Why are you asking me this?"


    "You two have three children together. Are you nning to just ignore each other forever?" Mike


    furrowed his brows. "He isn’t angry with Robert anymore. He is mainly angry that you kept the fact that


    you were treating Shea from him. If you didn''t keep that from him, he would never have treated Zoe as


    his savior. The other crazy things that happened after that wouldn''t have happened too..."


    "Mike, if things could be repeated, I would still do it," Avery said calmly, "Tammy said that I was selfish.


    I am indeed selfish."


    Mike was stunned. "Tammy said that to you?"


    "She is right. Selfish people usually live better." Avery looked at Robert who was sound asleep. "Now


    that the children are with me, if Elliot doesn''te to look for me, he won’t be able to see them. I don''t


    need to look for him."


    Mike could not help but apud what she said.


    "Don''t wake Robert up." Avery pulled him out of her room. "Go have some food! Then, rest. We’ll go to


    the supermarket to get some groceries for New Year''s Eve tomorrow.”


    "Okay, will Tammy =e$;RLR? her mothere too?"


    "I don’t know." Avery seemed down. "She might note."


    "Oh, did you two argue? Since you both haven''t reconciled, then just take time to calm down!" Mike


    said, "The older we get, the more things I realize that aren''t in full ck and white."


    "Why are you so perceptive?"


    Mike scratched his head and teased," Because I know a lot of secrets, but I can''t tell you."


    "Do you think I''m going to ask you what they are? I''m not going to do that. I''ll make sure you suffocate


    to death with your secrets," Avery teased.


    "Avery! You''re getting meaner!" Mike said loudly, "No wonder men find you so attractive!"


    Avery did not take his words to heart because Mike was not a person who could keep secrets. He


    always had a strong urge to tell her whatever secrets he found out. He would tell her at the first


    moment.


    At night, after La and Hayden had fallen asleep, Avery came out from the children''s room.


    Mrs. Cooper was carrying Robert in her arms, standing outside the door of her bedroom.


    Avery walked over.


    Mrs. Cooper said, "Avery, you have been ying with Hayden and La the entire afternoon, I''ll look


    after Robert tonight."


    "I''m not tired. I can look after him for a while." Avery took over Robert from Mrs. Cooper. "He’s great.


    He won’t make a fuss."


    Sometimes, she could put him on the bed with a toy and he would y alone for a long time. Robert


    did not know how to flip over yet, so she was not worried that he would fall to the ground.


    Avery returned to her room with Robert. After putting him on her bed, she went to the shower to fetch


    some water. She nned to give Robert a bath.


    After fetching some water, she returned to her bed and looked at the time on her phone.


    A message appeared. It was from Elliot.


    [Has the kids arrived home safely?]


    If it was not necessary, he would not have sent her a message.
