Avery took the report downstairs. Elliot heard footsteps and looked up at the staircase.
Their eyes met. The awkward atmosphere was looming around the entire living area.
"Mr. Foster, what brings you here?" Although Tammy was a little afraid of him, she was in Avery's house. She had strong backup support.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtElliot ignored Tammy's strange attitude. His gaze fell on the report in her hands. "Is Avery still asleep?" "Oh, you're here to take Avery to get the report?" Tammy said while flinging the report in her hand. "She has already taken it back." "Give them to me." Elliot took two steps forward and reached his hand out.
Tammy hid the report behind her back and took a jab at him, "Has your face healed? | thought you wouldn't look for Avery anymore. | never thought that your child would be more important than your so-called ego!" Elliot's expressions darkened immediately when he heard Tammy's mocks.
"You care about the child so much, is there a throne that the child needs to inherit?" Tammy would not let Elliot go that easily." Oh, your family has a huge business. There is indeed a throne that someone needs to succeed! It's a pity that God's will did not protect your child with Avery!" Elliot's body stiffened. His sharp gaze looked at Tammy's face, not letting go of any changes in her expression. He tried to tell if she was telling the truth or not.
"Don't tell me you think I'm lying?" Tammy looked stunned.
Elliot could not see signs of lying on Tammy's face, but he did not believe her words just yet. It was unless Avery told him personally that they lost the child! "Hand me the report!" Elliot barked," Tammy, don't force me to beat you again!" "Are you threatening me?" Tammy took a few steps back. "If you hit me again, Avery won't let you go!" "Hand me the report!" Elliot took two steps forward toward Tammy and grabbed her arm tightly with one hand while trying to get the report with the other hand! "You bastard! It hurts!" Tammy felt as if her arm was about to break! She has regretted it! She should not have provoked him.
This man was not afraid of anything when he got mad! Elliot managed to snatch the report over from Tammy.
At that moment, Avery came downstairs. She furrowed her brows ?b! They were so loud that she could not sleep at all.
Tammy immediately ran over to her and said in a low voice, "I lied to him and said that you lost the child. | was trying to intimidate him, but he became angry..." Avery said, "Aren't you just asking for trouble?" Tammy said, "I don't like him! | don't want him to be so happy!" Elliot lay his gaze on Avery for a short while before he lowered his head and looked at the report.

Their child was most probably fine.
"Avery, is our child fine?" Due to his excitement, Elliot's voice was a little trembling. "Will you be able to give birth to it?" Avery said, "It's fine for the time being." Elliot sighed heavily. Avery looked at his face. She had mixed emotions. She initially thought that he would not come to look for her that day. She never expected him to show up.
"Avery, since you have already gotten the report, I'll make a move." Tammy felt as if she was the third wheel. Although Avery and Elliot were no longer a couple, she felt that they might need to discuss the child.
After Tammy left, Elliot sat down on the sofa. Avery saw how Elliot was not planning on leaving, so she braced herself.
"You haven't done this month's maternity checkup, right?" Elliot said, breaking the silence.
Avery awkwardly responded. She was too tired that morning, so she returned after getting the report.
Elliot looked at her and saw her reddened eyes. Thus, he said, "Go and rest! I'll accompany you to the hospital for your checkup tomorrow.”
