Chapter 1206
Avery had never been that afraid of having her health fail her.
She had quarreled with Elliot countless times before and suffered from sleepless nights, yet she still
survived even though she was exhausted from work andcked sleep or food.
She never remembered her body acting like this before. It was as if her organs were just going to stop
working at any time.
Avery answered the phone and listened as Wesley said, "Adrian''s awake, Avery. He is mentally stable."
"That''s good to hear. What about Shea?"
"She''s still unconscious, but at the moment, all her vital signs are within the
normal range."
"Okay. I''ll go to the hospitalter."
After she hung up, she heard Mike waking the children up outside.
"If you don''t get up any sooner, I won''t be able to bring you to Hayden''s ce," Mike threatened La.
"In that case, you can only stay at home with your mother."
La groaned and got up reluctantly.
After a while, there was a knock on Avery''s door.
She immediately went to the door and opened it.
to her surprise, Hayden was standing outside her door.
She initially thought that Mike hade to wake her up!
"I’m sorry, Mommy." Hayden raised his head, looked at Avery, and apologized. "I shouldn''t have said
that to you yesterday."
Hayden had thought about what he had said all night and hade to the conclusion that he had
crossed the line.

He was going back to school, and if he did note to apologize to his mother soon, she might feel
sad for a very long time.
"I''m not angry. It''s true that I''m the one who has a bigger problem with my rtionship with your dad,"
Avery said frankly. "He wouldn''t be in this situation if he didn''t know me. I’ll look for him when Shea''s
situation improves, and I might not be able to take care of you and your siblings until I do." "I don''t need
you to take care of me. La and Robert are also being taken care of.
Just do what you want!"
"Did I disappoint you, Hayden?" Avery felt very guilty.
"You’re my mom. I just want you to be safe ? a#
Hayden''s answer touched Avery and set her at ease.
After sending them off, she went back to her room and sat down by her bed.
Her headache was so severe that she felt like she might fall at any moment. There was no way she
could go out in that state.
She picked up her phone and searched her contacts for the phone number of her doctor friend.
"I need some sleeping pills. Could you bring them to my ce?" "Are you the one who needs them?”
"Yeah. I''ve been losing sleeptely and taking mtonin doesn''t help." She took mtonin every night
before going to bed, but she still did not get a wink of sleep.
"Are you at home now? I''ll send it to you right away."
"Yeah, I am. Thanks."
The friend brought the sleeping pills to her after about half an hourter.
"Avery, I saw the news of your husband on the Inte." Her friend gave her the medicine and
ie, you can still livefortably on your own. Don''t let your health be affected over that."
Her friends there did not know the extent of her rtionship with Elliot after so many years.
To the outside world, she was sad because Elliot changed from being a rich man into an ordinary
person.
She did not want to exin too much to them.
"I''lle around if I sleep well," she said.
"Okay. I''m a bit afraid to give you too much in case you overdose," the friend said. "This is only one
week''s supply. I’ll give you some more if you still need it after that."
"Thank you. I''ll treat you to a meal next time." She returned to her room after sending her friend away.
Before she took the medicine, she sent Wesley a message: [ I didn''t rest wellst night, Wesley. I''ll try
to get some sleep now and head to the hospital once I wake up.]
Avery took a pill andy on the bed after sending the message.
