"Honey, I might be nervous because I''ve been out of the workforce for so long. I''ll slowly get back in shape." Avery took a deep breath and quickly calmed herself down. "Right, Leah sent me a message today. She said that she has registered her marriage with George. They had it registered yesterday."


    Elliot asked, "Are they nning to have a wedding?"


    "They haven''t said anything about a wedding. She told me that George had to take a few days off because her parents areing over. She and George have to spend time with her parents," Avery said with a smile. "Did George not tell you? He must be afraid of you."


    Elliot had not heard anything about this.


    He looked at his phone but did not see any messages or calls from George. Could George really be afraid of him? Whenever he spoke to George on the phone, George did not sound afraid of him.


    "Since Leah told me about it, that''s the same thing as telling you directly. You have to approve George''s leave!" Avery said. "I never would have thought that they would end up together so quickly, but they are quite a match."


    "I''ll have to see if he requests leave from me or not. If he doesn''t even approach me, how can he expect me to automatically approve his leave?" Elliot found it unbelievable. "Chad woulde to look for me by himself regarding his own matters."


    "Okay, Honey. Don''t get angry. I''m guessing that George will tell you after he sends La home." Avery patted his back, trying to soothe him.


    When they returned home, La was already home from school.


    George and Leah were there too. George looked at them shyly. Seeing how hesitant he was, he definitely wanted to request a leave of absence from Elliot.


    "Leah, you didn''t tell me you wereing over this evening when you texted me." Avery immediately took Leah''s hand and led her to the sofa to sit down. "If I''d known you wereing over, I would have gotten off work earlier."


    George watched them enter the house. He immediately walked over to Elliot and asked, "Mr. Foster, I would like to ask for a week''s leave. Leah''s parents havee to visit..."


    "Aren''t you two married already? Why haven''t you changed the way you address them?" Elliot teased.


    George blushed. He scratched his head. "Uh... My parents-inw actually don''t agree with Leah marrying me. They don''t really want to have anything to do with me."


    Elliot looked at how aggrieved George looked. He mentally sighed. "Where are they staying right now?"


    "They are staying at a hotel. They booked the hotel themselves before they came. George said. "They don''t want Leah to marry me. Not entirely because they hate me. Leah said that her parents don''t wish for her to be married so far from them. I understand."


    "Then, you should do all you can sincerely to prove that you will take good care of their daughter," Elliot said. "As long as they are satisfied with you, the distance doesn''t matter."


    George felt that Elliot''s words made sense, but he did not know how to make his parents-inw feel at ease.


    He originally wanted to ask Elliot if


    he coulde up with a good


    solution for him, but he suddenly


    thought of something and asket


    "Mr. Foster, if La marriesBelonging to N?velDrama.Org.

    in the future, will you miss her?"


    Elliot was speechless. His eyes bulged. His body gradually stiffened. He also clenched his fists.


    In an instant, an aura of pure fury instantly engulfed the air.


    George immediately covered his mouth. He felt as if he was about to die.
