NovelEnglishAvery did not understand what Mike was trying to say. "What will happen towhen he comes?” Mike said, "What do you think? We don't have any extra rooms in our house. The room that you brought Tammy to is so small.
Tammy might still be able to stay in it, how could Elliot take it?" Avery said, "If it's fine with Tammy, why can't he stay? If he thinks that the living conditions here are not great, he can book a five- star hotel outside." Mike raised his brows and looked at her.
Avery turned sheepish. "What are you looking atfor! We'll see about it when he comes. Maybe he won't stay with us. Maybe he'll head to the hotel once he lands.

"I'm only casually asking, why are you so worked up?" Mike continued to measure her up with a meaningful gaze. "Why did he suddenly decide to cover? Why did he not cyesterday! Don't tellyou invited him over!" Avery's face flushed red. It spread to her ears.
"If you're going to say any more on this, you'll stay in the small room in the future. I'll use your room to host guests," Avery threatened.
Mike harrumphed coldly, "I am willing to give my room to others, but I'm not sure if Elliot would be willing to stay in it! After all, he's a clean freak." Avery's temples hurt. She turned around and headed to the dining hall. She planned to clear the dishes.
Mike chased after her. "I'll do it. Go comfort Big H. He heard that Elliot is coming. | don't think he's too happy about it! " Avery immediately headed to Hayden's room once she heard what Mike said.
Hayden was indeed unhappy. It was a mood -killer when he heard that Elliot was suddenly coming. He did not want to see Elliot.
He did not want to be friendly to him or talk to him.
Avery entered and walked over to Hayden.
"Hayden, | know that you can't accept him." Avery has never forced Hayden to acknowledge Elliot as his father. "I only invited him over because Shea has passed away. He is in much more pain than us. This year, Shea can't spend the New Year with him.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHis mother is gone too. He has fought with his brother's family...” "Mommy, we did not cause his misery." Hayden has never so rudely interrupted Avery's words before, but he could not accept how Avery took pity on Elliot.
"Shea died because she tried to rescue Robert," Avery said sternly, "Hayden, | don't care how much you hate Elliot. This is something that you can't ignore." "I have never forgotten about Shea," Hayden suddenly said agitatedly, "I have also never forgotten about how Elliot almost strangledto death!" Avery suddenly lost her composure. She hugged Hayden, choked up, ;d-=QJV; said," I'm sorry, Hayden. | was the one that invited him. He has boarded the plane.” "I never said to not let him come.” Hayden let go of Avery. "Layla likes him a lot. In the future, Robert would like him a lot too. Only | wouldn't like him." "Hmm, | don't ask of you to like him. Once he is here, just treat him as if he was air. If you think he is in the way, you can stay in your room, or you can ask Uncle Mike to take you out." "Mommy, don't worry about me. | am no longer a kid." Hayden did not like how Avery had to tiptoe around him.
"Hayden, | can't stop worrying. Whether it's you, Layla, or Robert, you are all my precious babies." Hayden's eyes turned sore. He choked up a little. "Mommy, do you like him a lot? You give birth to three of his children. You must like him a lot, right! If Hayden was an outsider, Avery would have denied it.
"I'm not God. | can't control my feelings. If back then he strangled you to death, | would have killed him to avenge you. No matter how much | like him, | will always place the three of you before him." Since the children were much weaker than Elliot, she needed to protect them, so she would stand with the kids.
Hayden smiled a little at her answer.
"Mommy, I'm fine." "In Aryadelle, during the New Year, no matter how unhappy things got, people would try to control their anger. That's because the New Year is the start of a new beginning. If one was calm during the New Year, the year ahead would be smooth sailing," Avery explained to Hayden, "I hope that you're healthy and you do well in your studies." Hayden nodded obediently.
