Chapter 930
At Elliot''s house. He returned home and was about to head upstairs when Mrs. Scarlet called out after
him.
"Master Elliot, there is something I wonder if you’ve heard about?"
Elliot turned around and looked at Mrs.
Scarlet. "What is it?"
"It''s about the old mansion." Mrs. Scarlet had a heavy expression. "Your brother is nning to sell it."
Elliot''s gaze darkened a little. "Who did you hear it from?"
"My nephew is into real estate. He called and told me." Mrs. Scarlet’s eyes reddened and glistened with
tears. "Master Foster, your brother surely must have run out of money, which is why he is selling the
mansion. Sigh! How could he bear to do it!"
"Are you trying to ask me to give him money?" Elliot put both hands in his pocket. He looked straight at
Mrs. Scarlet.
She shook her head furiously, "Of course you can''t give them money! They are ungrateful people.
Madam Rosalie treated them so well, yet they killed her! I thought that you might want to buy the old
mansion. Even if you don''t stay there, it''s better to not let others move in too. If the old mansion were to
switch owners, others will surely talk about the Fosters."
Mrs. Scarlet was doing this for the Fosters'' reputation, so she suggested this to Elliot.
Elliot was wealthy. It was not a problem for him to buy the old mansion.
I''ll get someone to go take a look tomorrow, " Elliot said, "Go to bed!" "Have you had your dinner?" Mrs.
Scarlet asked immediately, "I’ve made dinner, but you did not return to eat, so it''s still on the table."
If Mrs. Scarlet did not ask him about it, he would not have realized that he had not had dinner yet.
He went straight to the Starry River Vi after work. When he arrived at Avery''s house, they had
already finished their meal.
Elliot walked over to the dining hall. Mrs. Scarlet immediately reheated the dishes.
"Master Elliot, how was spending time with the children?" Mrs. Scarlet asked Elliot.
"Not too good." Elliot furrowed his brows. His tone was a little cold. "Hayden hates me. I even made
Robert cry. La also did not dare toe close to me."
He was feeling utterly terrible.
In business, he had full control of everything. How was he such a failure when it came to his children?
Mrs. Scarlet was a little stunned. She quickly walked over to Elliot >h%:PIQ> asked, "Master Elliot, how
did that happen?"
"I was too impatient." He summed up his mistake. "I wanted to reconcile with
Hayden so badly it made him hate me even more."
"Oh...Hayden''s character is quite like you. If you rushed it, it would never work," Mrs. Scarletforted
him, "Hayden listens to Avery. As long as you maintain a good rtionship with Avery, Hayden will

get close to him." Elliot swallowed his saliva and said remorsefully, "I don’t like children, but my children
are different."
Mrs. Scarlet chuckled. "Yes. There are no parents on this earth that wouldn''t like their children."
Elliot said, "Have you forgotten about my father?"
The smile on Mrs. Scarlet''s face vanished." I''m sorry. I forgot about him. Master Elliot, you should
forget about him too! Don''t think about all those painful memories. You are different from him. I believe
that even if you and Avery’s children unfortunately have the condition, you would never abuse your
children. You will still love them as much as you do right now.
"I''m not so sure about that." Elliot’s chest heaved. He said bitterly, "Sometimes, I can''t control my
emotions. Just like tonight. I could have gently handled the situation with Hayden, but I grabbed him
roughly. Maybe I''m like my father, having a tendency to violence. His blood flows in my vein. I inherited
his violent genes. I can''t promise that I will be better than him.
Mrs. Scarlet said, "Master Elliot, stop saying that. No matter what other people say, no matter how you
think about it. In the servants'' eyes, you are a thousand times better than your father!"
She turned and entered the kitchen.
At the Starry River Vi, Avery was with Hayden throughout his dinner. The lively atmosphere at home
soon resumed.
"Robert, why don''t I y some piano for you?" La held Robert''s hand. "I learned a new piece this
weekend. Let me y for you!"
Avery looked at the time. "La, it’ste. You should go to bed, if not you won''t be able to get up
tomorrow. y for Robert after school tomorrow!"
"But I want to y the piano now." La was not sleepy. She did not want to go to bed.
At that moment, Hayden walked over. "Go upstairs, I''ll listen to you."
La pouted. She was reluctant. "But I only want to y for Robert."
