Chapter 638


    Elliot remained in the same spot. Avery soon quickly walked over to him.


    “When did youe?” Avery looked at him. There was not any expression on his face. He looked


    away and said in a very low voice, “Yesterday.”


    “What are you doing here?” Avery raised her voice. “Did youe alone?”


    She did not know why she wanted to stop him nor why she asked him these questions.


    Previously, they both had an argument. No one wanted to admit defeat. At that moment, meeting each


    other, they could have gone their separate ways. However, Avery could not control her thoughts. What


    if he was there to look for her?


    “There’s a speech at a school.” Elliot swallowed his saliva. He could not help but look at her.


    “I studied here for a year in high school. I’m going to give a speech in the afternoon. Do you want to


    go?”


    Avery was a little disappointed. She did not hide it verycd well.


    “I’m with Hayden today. I’m not free,” Avery said and looked toward Hayden.


    Hayden’s smile has long vanished. At that moment, he was looking coldly in theirge direction.


    The bodyguard was holding onto the robot that they won, standing next to Hayden. He was looking at


    them too.


    Avery inhaled awkwardly. “I only felt that it was a little too much of a coincidence that I would bump into


    you here,” she paused for a while before saying, “I’ll make a move.”


    She only took her first step away when Elliot grabbed her arm. “Let’s have dinner tonight.” Afraid that


    she would reject him, he added, “I’m returning to Aryadelle tomorrow.”


    “Hayden wouldn’t want to have dinner with you, so…”


    “I know you’ll find a way. He listens the most to you.” Elliot walked over to Avery and looked at her with


    his dark eyes. He said seriously, “Avery, I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have suspected you. Although my initial


    intention wasn’t that way, I still hurt you.”


    Avery’s face blushed red. Her body temperature shot up within a few short seconds too. She was so


    hot she panicked. She never thought that Elliot would say such a thing.


    Was he there to give a speech or apologize to her?


    Elliot did not like going to ces where there was a crowd. If he did note here to look for her, why


    was he there to torture himself?


    “So, the lucky draw, the robot…was your doing.” Avery knew that they would not be so lucky.


    “Don’t tell Hayden.” Elliot sounded helpless. “I just wanted you all to be happy.”


    “I know.” Avery lowered her gaze. She did not dare to meet his eyes.


    Elliot came over to apologize to her, expressing his sincerity. Even if she felt aggrieved, she did not


    have the mood to lose her temper at him.


    “I’ve booked a room at the restaurant near your ce. Let’s have a meal together tonight, please?”


    Elliot asked this once again.


    Avery had already caved in, but she did not want to agree to him that easily. “I’ll consider it.”


    She walked over to Hayden.


    Elliot saw her safely back with the bodyguard and Hayden before turning around and leaving.


    Avery looked at her son’s tightly furrowed brows. She wanted to cheer him up. “Hayden, the robot is so


    cool!”


    “Mommy, what is he doing here?” Hayden asked.


    “He came to apologize.” Avery did not want to keep things from Hayden. “He invited us to dinner


    tonight.”


    “I knew that he wouldn’t have good intentions.”


    “If you don’t want to, then we won’t have dinner with him tonight.” Avery smiled. She did not want to


    spoil her son’s mood.

    Hayden looked at her. Her wishes were all in her eyes.


    That night, Avery brought Hayden to the restaurant that Elliot reserved. It was Hayden’s decision to


    <pe because he saw how much Avery wanted toe.
