"Uncle Eric, my parents are going for their honeymoon so why don''t youe to our house to y!" La carried Robert to Eric and invited enthusiastically, "I thought you mentioned that you won''t start working again until after Christmas. We have a three day holiday for Christmas, so you should stay for another two days!"


    Eric considered it and said, "I need to ask your mother about this."


    "It''s fine! My parents are leaving, so I make the calls in our house!" She said smugly. "They are leaving tonight, so you cane tonight! Hehehe!"


    Eric couldn''t help but chuckle at her smugness.


    Robert looked up and corrected her, "La, Hayden is back now. If Mom and Dad are gone, we should listen to Hayden."


    To Robert, though La was extremely important, he still thought that Hayden was far more reliable.


    "Hayden listens to me as well!" She said proudly, "he will let me do anything because he likes me. Same goes with you." Robert nodded obediently. "Of course, I listen to you, La. I like you more than Hayden does."


    "Good boy," La said, her heart melting at his words.


    After the dinner, Eric walked over to Avery and tapped her on her shoulder. She immediately followed him to the side.


    "La is inviting me to stay at your house for two days." Eric figured that it was better to mention this to Avery ahead of time, though he wouldn''t have been so careful if they were staying at Avery''s mansion in Starry River Vi.


    "Sure! I''m totally okay with it so long as you don''t mind all the noises," Avery said with a smile. "Robert is extremely activetely."


    "I think he is sweet."


    "He just doesn''t know you well enough yet. It''s going to be different soon," Avery exined. "When will you start working? Your manager must be nervous about you taking such a long leave."


    "He''s given up. He''s on a vacation with his family right now," he drawled.N?velDrama.Org owns all content.


    "Hahaha!"


    "I heard that you two are leaving tonight. Travel safe!"


    "Yeah. Is it okay with you to stay the night? I can talk to La if you don''t want to."


    "It''s fine. I can stay wherever as long as I''m not in the same house with Elliot."


    "Haha, Elliot would wee you to stay even if he''s here," Avery exined. "He''s not as skeptical and paranoid as he was in the past."

    "He looks the same to me," Eric mocked. "Enjoy your holiday! I will take care of the kids."


    "Thank you! I''ll bring you souvenirs when Ie back."


    "It''s fine. Just bring something for the kids."


    Avery did not respond because she
