Chapter 2244


    Hayden was a little baffled about having to keep the marriage certificates.


    Other children handed things to their parents for safekeeping; why was it the other way around in


    his family?


    Hayden was a minimalist. He carried all his important belongings with him in his bag.


    His bag only had hisptop and mouse.


    If his parents gave him their marriage certificates for safekeeping, he had no choice but to ce


    them in his bag.


    He would have to deal with the emotions that would stem from taking their marriage certificates to


    school, daily.


    "Hayden, have you bought your tickets?" Elliot was in a good mood, so he mustered up the courage


    to chat with his son.


    "I bought a ticket for tonight." Hayden ced their marriage certificates into his bag before passing


    the camera to his mother. "The photos I took might not be good."


    Avery epted the camera and casually browsed through a few photos. She praised him and said,


    "As long as you took it, it will look great."


    "No matter who takes the photos it all looks great because you look great," said Elliot, fawning over


    Avery.


    "Did you take honey today? Why are you such a sweet talker?" Avery chuckled and ced the


    camera in her bag. "Are you feeling dizzy? Do you want to head home?"


    "The weather is great. I don''t feel like returning home." Elliot had not been so rxed in a very, very


    long time.


    "I''m asking you if you''re dizzy or not…"


    "A little," Elliot said honestly, "But not because of sickness, but happiness."


    Avery and Hayden were speechless.


    "It''s too early for a celebratory meal! Why don''t we go shopping? See if you need to get anything, or


    we can walk and shop at the same time." Elliot was excited.


    Avery and Hayden looked at him with confusion.


    He had just had surgery ten days ago, yet he wanted to go shopping. They did not know whether he


    was brave or whether he was making good progress.


    "I know that you want to shop with your son and chat with him, but let''s not do it! I''m afraid your


    body can''t take it. We can go to a bookstore or a cafe and sit down there," Avery suggested.


    Elliot thought that Hayden would not like such boring ces, like the bookstore or cafe. "Why don''t


    we see if there are any tech exhibitions or other interesting exhibitions!"


    Of course, Avery understood what he was thinking about.


    "Elliot, you can''t go to crowded ces right now," Avery said patiently. "You will have a lot of time to


    go to interesting ces with Haydenter. Let''s find a quieter ce to go to today."

    Hayden noticed that Elliot was about to argue, so he coldly said, "Didn''t you promise La that


    you''ll listen to Mommy? If you were to pass out, are you asking us to apany you to the


    hospital?"


    "Okay, then! I''m just afraid that you''ll be bored," said Elliot, exining himself to Hayden. "Hayden,


    where do you want to go? You decide!"


    Hayden said without thinking, "Home."


    "Let me decide then!" Avery said strongly. "Let''s go to a cafe. We can have some tea and pastries.


    We can read books and listen to music. We can stay there for a while before having our celebratory


    meal. We''ll head home after that."


    Elliot and Hayden agreed to it in unison.


    Soon after, the family of three arrived at a cozy cafe. Avery was selecting tea while Elliot picked the


    pastries.


    "Hayden, what do you feel like eating?" Elliot took the menu and sat down next to Hayden on the


    sofa.


    Avery noticed father and son sitting together. She could not help but chuckle. "Elliot, you''ll scare


    Hayden."


    Elliot had an awkward expression. "I don''t think so, right? Hayden is already so big."


    Hayden blushed.


    They heard a beautiful melody fill the air.
