Chapter 1040


    Avery was just about to ask La who told her that when Eric arrived.


    "Mommy, Uncle Eric is here!" La said and ran to the courtyard.


    "La, watch out!" Avery chased after her.


    Outside the courtyard, a car came to a stop. Eric came out of the car.


    "Avery, I''m taking La. When she has had enough fun, I''ll send her back." Eric walked over to Avery


    and looked at her tenderly.


    "You''re always helping with the children every holiday," Avery said, "Is this really alright for you?"


    "If La is not with me, I''ll be even more bored." Eric held La''s hand. "We''ll make a move. We''ll call


    you once we have


    reached." "Okay, have a safe journey."


    After Avery sent La off, the entire vi was truly empty. The children were not at home, so Avery got


    the other servants to take off too. At that moment, there was only a bodyguard at home, ensuring her


    safety.


    Avery headed to the kitchen to clean the dishes and utensils they used that morning. Then, she went to


    the storage room to look for the vacuum and started cleaning.


    She fetched a pail of water and a cloth from the washroom. She intended to wipe the house down.


    Elliot did not contact her. She did not know when he wasing to look for her. Just when she was


    thinking about him, her phone suddenly rang.


    She immediately ced the pail of water down and went to the living area. She picked her phone up

    and epted the call.


    "Avery, the children have left, right? Let''s go shopping!” On the other end of the line, Tammy’s voice


    came through.


    "Didn''t you say you’ll be spending time with Jun?"


    "We''re only going out at night! I want to go shopping during the day," Tammy said excitedly, "There are


    so many events today! Are you free?"


    "I''m free! Elliot hasn''te to see me yet. I''m cleaning the house right now!"


    "You''re amazing! Wait for me at home. I''lle to pick you up!" Tammy said and hung up the phone.


    Avery looked at herself in pajamas. She furrowed her brows. Since Elliot was noting to look for


    her, then she should go shopping with Tammy!


    She returned to her room


    After changing into her clothes, she went to her boudoir and started putting on makeup..


    After doing all that, she picked her phone up and dialed Elliot. She was not going to be with him during


    the daytime anymore since he did not ask her out earlier.


    If he was not going to take initiative in asking her out, he should just be alone.


    Avery dialed and soon the call was picked up.


    "Avery, what are you doing? Have the children left?" Elliot''s calm voice came through.


    Avery harrumphed. "Don''t tell me you’re still sleeping."


    "No. I''m already up. I''m having breakfast."


    "Oh, then have a good meal. I''m about to head out with Tammy," Avery said, "You have fun with


    yourself during the day!"


    "Okay, we will see each other at night." Hiszy voice had a hint of humor in it. "I''ll send you the


    address to meet at nightter."


    Avery found it strange. "You have already decided on a ce?"


    "Hmm. Go have fun with Tammy. I''ll see you at night." He sounded a little more serious.


    "Hmm." Avery never expected that Elliot had already settled on a ce for that night that early.
