Chapter 1060


    Avery''s answer stunned Hayden for a few seconds.


    He was still a child, and the most he could express was his ''like'' for someone, not ''love


    However, Avery said that she loved Elliot and could never love anyone else except him.


    There was nothing Hayden could do except ept that.


    "Fine, I get it!" Hayden yelled as he looked at Elliot at the entrance of the stairs. He ran into his room


    soon after.


    Avery turned around and saw Elliot walking over with La in his arms.


    "Don''t you think you were a little too direct


    earlier?" Elliot blushed slightly. "What I mean by that is, do you think you are pushing him a bit too


    much?"


    Avery knew that she was a little impulsive earlier.


    Then again, they would have to face it sooner orter. It would be better off talking about the elephant


    in the room instead of pretending that it did not exist.


    "Maybe I was a little impatient." She lowered her eyes slightly and sighed. "I don’t want to have to worry


    about how he would react when we finally get married. Whether he’s able to ept it or not, at least I


    don''t have to be so cautious with you anymore after being upfront with him."


    "Daddy, could you put me down?" La struggled. "I''m going to talk to Hayden."


    Elliot put her down right away.


    "You can do thatter, La. Hayden said that he has a test, so bothering him at this time might not be


    a good idea." Avery held her daughter''s little hand. "Let''s go down and y with Robert!"


    "Oh, is it that importantpetition that Hayden is going to participate in?" La asked curiously.


    Avery looked at Elliot. "It''s in June, isn''t it? "


    "Yeah. He has to pass the qualifying round before he can participate in the


    "The qualifying round? You mean the one where the whole ss is fighting for one spot?"


    "Yes."


    Avery frowned immediately. "Thispetition is very important to him. If I knew he was going to be


    Elliot held her by the shoulders =d#;PKU<forted her. "Don''t me yourself. I''m sure he can handle


    it."


    "He might be smart for his age, but he''s still a child. I''ll find a time to apologize to himter.” Avery felt


    even more guilty. "It''s all your fault, Elliot."


    Elliot was speechless.


    "I wouldn’t need to put him in a tight spot if it wasn''t to make your life at home a little morefortable."


    She made a point to vent her frustration onto him. "You might not have put any pressure on me, but I


    feel that pressure whenever I see you."


    "It''s my fault." He apologized. "How about I go back to my ce and stay there for a couple of days?"Original content from N?velDrama.Org.


    "Did you forget that Adrian''s living there now? Are you fine with living with him if you went back?" she


    reminded.


    Elliot was silent.


    He hadpletely forgotten about it!


    The past few days had been quite blissful for him and he forgot Adrian''s existence since that man was


    never mentioned!


    "You should just stay here with me. I''ve already had a heart-to-heart with Hayden, and from what I


    know about him, he wouldn''t treat you as an enemy anymore," Avery reassured. "I know my son."


    Elliot''s pupils widened slightly. "Really?" "Yes, really. He''s very obedient." Deep down, Avery felt a little


    ufortable when she said that. "That''s why I never wanted to force him because I knew he''d listen


    to me if I did."


    Elliot was a little excited.


    He longed to reconcile with Hayden, and although the process was a little unpleasant when Avery


    stepped forward and exined things, he could always make it up to Hayden in the future if the results


    were positive.


    "Thank you, Darling," he said in a low and hoarse voice. He could not resist kissing her on the cheek.


    Avery blushed shyly.
