Chapter 1131
Her mind was eased that he had finally found peace.
They stepped out of the yard and soon ran into two women along the road. One of the women saw Avery and greeted her enthusiastically, “Avery, are you back from your holiday?”
“Yeah! Are you on a walk?”
“Yeah! Your baby is so big now! How adorable!” The woman complimented Robert, before turning her attention to Elliot. “Avery, is this your husband?” Avery glanced at Elliot and hummed in response.
“Your husband is quite handsome, but what’s with his face? Is it jaundice?” The woman looked worried, and she even reached out to try and touch Elliot’s face.
Elliot immediately took out his mask and wore it.
“No. He got injured, but he’s almost recovered.” Avery noticed that Elliot was feeling uncomfortable and said hastily, “Auntie, we will go take our walk now.” “Sure! Bye!”
After the two women left, Elliot muttered in confusion, “Are you close to them?”
“No!” Avery said. “We’ve just seen one another a few times! It’s a community, so we are bound to run into each other.”
“Then how would she know that you’d gone on a holiday?” “It’s not odd that they know!” Avery said. “Layla would take Robert out every evening. Our kids are so adorable that all these women love them, so obviously they would chat with them.” “I see. I thought that they heard it from Mrs. Cooper.”
“Mrs. Cooper wouldn’t tell others about our personal lives! She takes privacy really seriously.” “There’s no harm in telling others small matters like this.”
“But Mrs. Cooper wouldn’t. She is very cautious. Even though she’s an employee, I feel like she’s more of a senior to us.”
By the time they returned from the walk, Mike had already finished packing. “I’m going now!” Mike took his luggage and bid his farewell to Avery reluctantly. “Don’t mess my room up. I will come over from time to time.”
“Relax, I will keep your room.” Avery thought about it for a moment and said, “Come over for dinner tonight, otherwise Layla is going to be upset to know that you’ve moved out when she comes home tonight.” “Sure, I will come here for dinner every day.” “Okay!” Avery walked him to the garage ERUDJ;LL lowered her voice. “Let me know once you find out where Adrian is.”
“I know. I will get to it once I settle in.” That night, Mike came back for dinner and gave Avery a look as soon as he spotted her. Avery immediately got the message.
After dinner, Avery told Elliot that she had too much to eat and was not feeling well and told him to take the children for a walk.
Once they were out the door, Mike immediately pulled Avery into his room.
“I directly hacked into the Telecom company’s system this time and found the precise location of Adrian’s phone.” Mike put his hands on his hips smugly. “Aren’t I great?” “I’ve always known that you are great. So where is he? I want to go check right now.” Avery could barely contain her excitement.
“Do you think that Elliot would let you go out with me?” said Mike. “I’ll go look on my own.”
“I will send my bodyguard with you. I’m worried that it might be dangerous,” Avery said with concern. “Cole and Henry have lost their minds, and they might do something extreme.”
