Chapter 1650
"| spoke with Wesley and Shea today, and we n to take her embryo out and ce it into an artificial womb," she said. "It''s a bit
expensive and we will need someone to monitor it 24/7, so it will cost more in the months toe."
He nodded. "What are the chances?"
"| can''t say, but it''s better than getting rid of the baby altogether. Shea really wants a child.”
"Yeah, it''s a great idea. Why didn''t you tell me earlier?" He felt the pressure on his chest finally lift.
"I''m telling you right now, and | just got back. It''s a very important decision, and | wanted to tell you about it in person." He
nodded again. "Ben told me you were a little cold to him today when he called you to ask what you needed the money for."
Avery had not expected Ben to be this sensitive. Not only was he sensitive and skeptical, but he seemed to enjoy telling on
people.
She shielded her true emotions with a smile. "I haven''t even told you about Shea at that point, so how could | tell him about her?
It''s Shea''s private matter, after all."
Hepletely rxed at the beaming smile on her face.
“Wesley and Shea wanted toe and apologize to you, but | told them not to," Avery continued. "Shea''s pregnancy is
supposed to be good news. We don''t have to make it look like a tragedy, now, do we?" "Yeah. So long as Shea''s life isn’t in any
danger, they don''t have to apologize to me."
"So did youe home early because Ben said | was being cold to him?" She could not help but chuckle. "You two always talk
about me behind my back. Is that a sign of you caring about me, or simply that you are both sensitive men?"
Elliot patted her on the head. "It''s probably because you have been too nice to him, so when you refused to tell him why you
wanted the money, he panicked.”
"Oh, | see. He was the one doing the transaction, after all. | would have been skeptical as well if someone asked me for that
much money without providing an exnation as to why they needed it.”
"He''s not skeptical, just curious. He loves poking his nose in other people''s businesses."
The two went into the mansion >e,?RKY= were changing their shoes when Robert rushed toward them and attached himself to
Avery’s leg.
“Mommy, Sister... Sister mad..." Robert blurted out hastily while looking up at Avery.Belongs to (N)?vel/Drama.Org.
Avery immediately lifted him up and cooed gently, "Why would your sister be mad at you?"
Robert pointed his finger in the direction of La’s room, wanting to go to his sister.
From the anxious expression on Robert''s face, Elliot realized that perhaps the siblings got into an argument.
“La shut herself in her room aftering home earlier today. Robert wanted to y with her, but she won''t open the door so
he''s a little upset," Mrs. Cooper came over and exined.
Elliot nced at Avery. "I''ll go upstairs and have a look."
"Sure. If she won''t let you in, I''ll go
instead." Avery did not deem it aa
appropriate to talk toeavia wate still
Holdireg Rdbert in her arms. "The
teacher didn''t notify me about this.

Elliot took out his phone to check, before shaking his head.
"Go upstairs and ask her about it, then!" she said. "Our daughter is growing up now so maybe she is struggling over something."
Elliot strode upstairs to La''s door and knocked, before calling out in a low voice," La, open up. It''s Daddy."
He had thought that perhaps La would only want to see Avery at the moment, but La opened the door right away.
