Chapter 1733


    Avery wanted to exin herself to La, but she could not find the appropriate excuse.


    La was no longer a three-year-old toddler and lies would not fool her.


    “La, | was sick and the doctor told me to stay off my phone. That''s why | had to wait until | recovered to call you," she said,


    answering with a half-truth. "It''s not that bad, and I''m much better now. | wanted to go back to Aryadelle to see you and your


    brother, but your dad won''t let me see you."


    "Boo-hoo! That dirtbag Daddy! If he won''t let you see us, we will go to you!” La scowled fiercely. "I''m not afraid of him!"


    “La, your studies are the most important thing right now. You cane to


    Bridgedale during your winter break, okay? " said Avery,forting her. "I will tell Hayden or Uncle Eric to pick you up. Either will


    work. You need to focus on school right now. Robert is too young, and you can’t travel overseas with him. Let''s discuss this


    again during your winter break, okay?”N?velDrama.Org: owner of this content.


    La wiped away her tears. "Okay, Mommy. Will you video-call me every day, then? If not every day, at least call me every two


    days?"


    Avery thought about it and said, "You can call me when you have the time. | will keep my phone on from now on."


    "You don’t want Daddy to see us?"


    "Yeah. | don''t want to argue with him," Avery exined. "You and your brother are still living with him so | want no conflict with


    him." "What can | do, Mommy?" La desperately wanted to do something to improve their situation.


    "You just need to stay healthy, focus on your studies, and get along with your brother. That is enough." Avery knew that La


    wanted to leave Elliot ande to her, but that could not be arranged at the moment.


    La pouted gloomily for a while, before asking, "Mommy, would you like to see Robert?"


    Without hesitation, Avery said, "Yes. | miss him, too."


    "Wait!" La got out of bed in a hurry and rushed to her brother''s room.


    Robert was still sleeping and La had to crawl into his bed to point the camera at him.


    "Look, Mommy, he is still sleeping." La adjusted the angle of his face to face the camera. "Look at him, don’t you think he''s


    gotten bigger, too?"


    Avery beamed at the sight of Robert''s chubby cheeks. "Let your brother sleep, La. You should get up ;e%;QLR? get ready for


    school, too."


    “Mommy, | don''t want to hang up," La whined.


    Avery, too, did not want to end the call, but her eyes were beginning to swell after staring at the screen for a while.


    She could not look at her phone any longer.


    “My stomach hurts so | need to go to the bathroom now." She made up an excuse and hung up.


    After the call, Mike opened the door to her room.


    He had heard everything she had said to La.


    "| just called La," she confessed as he walked in. "| couldn''t help myself after reading her diary..."


    "It''s okay. I''m just worried about your eyes."
