Chapter 2071


    "Mom, why do we have to buy a new house? Isn''t it good here? I''m used to it." Mary was confused.


    Ang chuckled loudly. "I want you to stay in a better ce. It''ste. Go sleep!"


    "Mom, are you nning to return to the Jennings? If you are, I can send you back."


    Ang shook her head. "It''ste. I don''t want to move. I''ll give Dean a callter."


    On the way back, Avery and Elliot sat in the back seat of the car while Mike drove, and Wilson sat in


    the front passenger seat.


    "I never thought that Ang had remarried a second time," Wilson said, breaking the silence in the


    car.


    "Ang is already sixty. Who knows if she has remarried for the second or third time? Maybe even


    the fourth time," Mike replied.


    "This should be her first marriage. I heard that she had never gotten married because of what she


    felt for Professor Hough. Plus, her daughter is old. If she had gotten married in the past, people


    would have surelymented on her daughter," said Avery. "The woman doesn''t look like Ang.


    She should be her adopted daughter."


    "What you say makes sense too. That woman doesn''t look one bit like Ang," Mike said before


    ncing at Elliot from the rearview mirror. "Elliot, what are you thinking right now? I''m very curious.


    It has been a long time since you had been revived. Why didn''t you contact us? If we hadn''t


    searched for you, had you nned on living out the rest of your life in that blue house?"


    Avery had been clutching Elliot''s hand tightly all this while. Upon Mike''s words, she felt his hand


    gently tremble a little.


    "Mike, head to the hospital." Avery was afraid of Elliot''s situation. She had to go to the hospital right


    at that moment to give him a brain checkup to see if it really is like how Ang put it.


    "Oh, sure!" Mike immediately replied.


    Elliot quickly withdrew his hand from Avery''s. The expressions on his face turned to nervousness


    and fear.


    Avery looked at the change in his expression.


    "Elliot, don''t be afraid. Whatever the situation is right now, I will be with you," Avery gentlyforted


    him.


    "Don''t go to the hospital." He furrowed his brows. Tears filled his eyes and he said with difficulty, "I


    don''t want to."


    "Then, we won''t go." Avery tried to understand the fear in his heart. She said, heartbroken, "Elliot,


    we''ll go home first. We''ll wait until you''re willing to go to the hospital, then only we''ll go."


    Twenty minutester, the car arrived home. Avery helped Elliot get out of the car. In the living area,


    Hayden walked out.


    The moment he saw Elliot, he had a strange feeling. He felt terrible. The man that was once


    unstoppable, proud, and arrogant seemed to have vanished. Elliot, at that moment, had be a


    completely different person.


    When Hayden was measuring Elliot up, Elliot saw him too.


    Their eyes met in the dark night. There was no sharpness nor sparks in their gaze.


    Avery was afraid that Hayden would express his emotions in front of Elliot or say harsh words, so


    she let go of Elliot''s hand and strode over to Hayden.


    She pulled Hayden to the side while secretly saying to him, "Hayden, your father''s situation is


    terrible. He didn''t want to follow me back. I was the one who forced him home. I''m begging you,


    please don''t say anything harsh to him."This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.
