Chapter 2095


    "Why are you in my study?" Avery strode up to him.


    Mike had Elliot''s bodycheck results in his hands and was reading through them with such attention


    that Avery knew he was reading Elliot''s results and not his own. He would not read his own results


    with such intensity.


    "I''m reading the medical reports! You haven''t told me anything..."


    "He was there during dinner. Who would ask about someone''s medical reports right in front of them


    like you did?" Avery snatched the reports away from him and ced them on the desk. "There was,


    indeed, a special device imnted in his brain. Apart from that, there is no abnormality in his


    physical condition. I don''t fully understand the thing inside his brain, but everything else about him is


    normal."


    "Isn''t that a good thing?" Mike seemed slightly surprised at the oue. "Is Ang really that


    capable of miracles?


    That device literally brought the dead back to life."


    "What, "dead"? Mike, stop saying things like that in front of me!"


    This was the second time Avery had heard something like this today, with Natalie being the first


    person to mention it. It did not matter if it was meant to be sarcastic or merely a joke, but she simply


    felt disturbed by it.


    "I didn''t mean it... I just mean that since he isn''t any different from an ordinary person, you should


    tell him to stop pulling a long face." Mike ced his hand on her shoulder. "Isn''t it tough to have to


    look at that cold, expressionless face every day?"


    "He isn''t cold to me in private." She shoved his hand away. "Go away. I''m busy."N?velDrama.Org copyrighted ? content.


    "I''ll go, but when are you going to sleep? It''s nine."


    "None of your business. I''m not a child.” She red at him. If Mike refused to go, she intended to


    push him out the door herself.


    "Have you noticed that Hayden has been in a bad moodtely?” Mike was about to step outside but


    stopped halfway. "Ever since Elliot got back, Hayden doesn''t really talk to us anymore."


    "How could I not notice? I know my son. He probably can''t ept how Elliot has changed. He might


    have resented Elliot before, but Elliot is still his father and has tended to Hayden''s every need ever


    since he found out that Hayden is his son.


    Hayden can''t possibly be immune to what happened."


    "True. Big H looks cold on the outside, but he is actually a caring kid."


    "He hates it when people refer to him as a kid."


    "Um... I will have a heart-to-heart with him. Don''t stay up toote. I wille check the study again


    at twelve," Mike said, before leaving.


    Avery sighed and sat down in the chair. She moved to set her phone down, and out of force of


    habit, she nced at it before doing so and noticed the messages from Sebastian.


    She had not contacted Sebastian ever since she brought Elliot back as there was not much to say.


    She paled when she saw the messages and panicked. She dialed Sebastian''s number with


    trembling hands, and he picked up right away.


    "Have you seen the messages I sent you?" He asked.


    "I did! Is your dad really nning to do that?!" Avery felt as though the world was spinning before


    her, and all she could do was support her head on her hand. "Ang promised me that she won''t


    come after me and Elliot...’’


    "What I told you were only my dad’s thoughts. Ang is not with my dad these past two days


    because she is busy with apartment hunting for her daughter. She probably has no clue about my


    dad''s n!" Sebastian gasped and warned her, "Avery, if you really end up marrying me for Elliot''s


    sake, please don''t me me for it."


    Avery wanted to tell him that she would never marry him, but couldn''t bring herself to say the words.


    If it was for Elliot''s sake, she would do anything.


    "I am calling Ang!" Her eyes reddened and she immediately hung up.
