Chapter 1851


    Avery desperately wanted to hide away, because she knew that Elliot had not taught Robert to say


    such a thing. Robert kept mentioning how much his sister liked Avery, and it was obvious that he


    was inviting Avery to stay the night for La''s sake.


    "Robert, we can invite Mom toe and y during the day, but at night, she will need to go home


    to sleep." Elliot patted Robert on the head. "Everyone has their own house and needs to go back to


    their own house to sleep."


    Robert looked slightly confused, but said," Kitties need to go back to kitties'' house; doggies need to


    go back to doggies'' house; so Mommy needs to go back to Mommy''s house.”


    Everyone''s jaw dropped at thement.


    Avery could not decide if she wanted to chuckle or cry. "Robert, why don''t youe to Mommy''s


    ce to y next time?"


    "I will go if La goes."


    "You are such a good boy, Robert." Avery was d that La and Robert were getting along so


    well.


    After a while, the children who finished their meals and the women who weren''t drinking left the


    table. Tammy dragged Avery outside the mansion for a stroll and asked, "Avery, have you two really


    made up?"


    "I suppose! He exined everything in the past to me but I don''t know if I want to believe that."


    Avery inhaled the fresh air and continued, "I''ve lost my mind over him once before, and I don''t want


    to make the same mistake again, so I am maintaining a level head this time."


    "It doesn’t really matter if you two get back together, actually. It''s good enough that you managed to


    eat at the same table. After all, your divorce was rough, and we all thought that you would never


    speak to one another again... You are just too understanding and forgiving. If I were you, I would


    never forgive Elliot."


    "Why not?"


    "The fact that he forced you into selling yourpany is too much for me to ept. " Tammy''s


    features stiffened. "Elliot is too hot-tempered, and he should only ever date women who are


    senselessly in love with him, but that''s the type he feels least interested in."


    Avery chuckled. "Tammy, selling thepany was my decision, >f*:ULP: it has nothing much to do


    with Elliot." "I thought that you sold yourpany because Tate Industries opened a branch in


    Bridgedale to go up against Alpha Technologies." Confused, Tammy said, " That’s the version I''ve


    been hearing."


    Avery shook her head. "It''s not entirely because of that. I just grew tired of it all and wanted the cash


    flow. That''s why I sold it."


    "Alright! Guess I’ve misunderstood him."


    "Tammy, he said that he didn''t hear what I said when I called him before. Do you think that’s


    possible?" Avery asked suspiciously. "My phone works just fine, and it''s been working for all these


    years."

    "He said he couldn''t hear you?"


    "Yeah! He even found the recording of the conversation at the time, and my voice faded away


    toward the end of the phone call. He said he didn''t tamper with the recording."


    Tammy scratched her head. "I don''t know much about that. Why haven’t you two talked about it till


    now? If only you talked about it earlier on, it would have been much easier to look into this."


    Avery, too, seemed frustrated. "I was really depressed with what happened to my eyes and acted


    rashly because of it. After that, I could not touch my phone for months because of the surgery I


    had."


    "It''s not your fault, Avery. Whatever happened, it''s not your fault."


    "But if he really wasn''t aware of my condition at the time, I can''t really me him. In the end, I


    guess we''ve both been too proud. We would rather go our separate ways than simply sit down and


    talk about it. It''s almost like we were worried that we would embarrass ourselves for saying a few


    words." Avery reflected on her own action.


    "Then don''t me one another anymore and just carry on with your lives and raise the three


    children you have. That’s the best ending for everyone.


    "Yeah. He cut ties with Natalie in front of La and I earlier today," Avery said shyly.


    "It was so awkward even though I knew that he didn''t do it for me."


    "How would you know that? What if it was all for you? He knows that you are still single, and he


    might want you back," Tammy guessed.


    "La said the same thing."


    "What do you think?" Tammy questioned.


    "Nothing. I just want to find Ivy, " Avery said. "I won''t be up to talk about anything else until I find


    her."


    "If Elliot manages to find Ivy, would you overlook his mistakes because of that?


    Since you will have four children together at that point! Four! My god, I can''t even begin to imagine!"
