Chapter 1569
This was why Elliot was backte the night before. He took the photos back with him but left them in his car. He did not take
them out.
He walked over to the trunk and took the photos out. He held the photos and went to his study room.
He turned on the light and looked at the baby''s ultrasound photo carefully. Then, he picked up the family photo he had on his
desk.
He even took La''s photo andpared it to the baby''s. They looked simr.
Elliot ced the photo down and clutched his forehead.
His dream of a peaceful and quiet life had been certified asical.
On the other side, Avery had just finished visiting her mother''s grave before heading to Mike''s.
Ever since Avery and Elliot reconciled, Mike had moved out of Starry River Vi. Only when Avery or Elliot was not around, would
he return for a short stay.
"What’s going on?" Mike had a head full of unkempt hair. He poured her a cup of water. "I still have some milk, but it’s cold. You
look a little pale. You should drink warm things."
“Water is fine." Avery epted the cup of water. She took a sip of water. "Mike, I..." She opened her mouth but hesitated.
"| know. You fought with Elliot. It is written on your face." Mike crossed his arms on his chest, standing in front of her.
From the moment she rang the doorbell and entered, Mike only had to take one look, to immediately know what was wrong.
If she did not fight with Elliot, she would not havee over on the first day of the new year.
"We didn''t fight." Avery took another sip of water. "The children are already so big.
What is there to fight about?"
"You''re being stubborn." Mike sat down next to her and looked at her face. "Let me guess! Did Elliot fight with Hayden?"
"No, Hayden is old enough to take care of himself. He doesn''t fight with Elliot."
"Tsk, tsk. Hayden sure is a good kid," Mike said and continued to guess, "Elliot looks a little asexual. | don''t think he had an affair.
Unless... he had an affair?!"
Avery coughed violently. "Didn''t you say he looks like he doesn''t like sex?"
“But only if he cheated would you get angry. " Mike took a banana from the fruit bowl. He peeled it >d#:XKX? finished the entire
banana in two bites. "Who was he having an affair with?"
Avery said glumly, "He went to see Rubyst night."
"F*ck me! Ruby is in Aryadelle?" Mike was stunned. "What is this woman trying to do? Why did Elliot go to see her too? What
was he trying to do?"
"| don''t know. He didn’t tell me." Avery put down the cup of water sadly. "If he had told me, | wouldn''t have stopped him from
seeing her..."ConTEent bel0ngs to N?v(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
“Avery, wake up. If he had told you, you would have stopped him. You wouldn''t let him see Ruby," Mike corrected her.
Avery looked at Mike in a daze. Her expressions seem to say, "So this is how | am as a person."
She thought about it closely. Mike was right.

wanted to see Ruby, sh woute not |

“No wonder he didn''t tell me..." Avery muttered. Her energy seemed to have been depleted. She leaned back on the sofa
listlessly.
She had barely slept the night before.

"Go to the room and sleep." Mike tugged on her arm. "Don''t fall sick here. If not, Elliot wille looking for me for trouble."
Avery got up from the sofa

"Why are you thinking so much about this? Go sleep first." Mike could not reply to her question and neither did he want to drive a
wedge between them.
It was annoying to deal with such a thing during New Year''s.
Mike helped her to the guest room. After sheid down, he tucked her in.
Avery closed her eyes and soon fell asleep. Mike came out of her room, found his phone, and dialed Elliot.
