Chapter 335 “Layla’s dizzy, Mommy. She’ll be fine after she gets some rest,” Hayden said. “You don’t need to
worry.”
“I see… That’s good. Take care of your sister.”
“I will.”
After she hung up the phone, Avery did not return to the office.
She continued to drive towards the house.
She had basically concluded that the children were not at home.
If she had told Hayden that she was on the way home, the children would immediately make their way back to the
house.
Now that she was quietly returning home, she would call Hayden again if they were not there!
Avery thought that the children were using sickness as an excuse to do something secretive.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLayla was more innocent and did not have complex thoughts. Her flaw was that she was too obedient towards
Hayden.
Considering Hayden’s history of “bad behavior”, Avery could not help but have an ominous feeling inside her heart.
She pulled up in front of the Starry River Villa, then rushed towards the front door.
She keyed in the security code on the door then pushed it opened.
Soon after, Hayden heard the noise and walked out.
As mother and son met eyes, a peculiar spark flickered in the air.

Avery felt slightly ashamed.
How could she suspect her children of doing bad things outside?!
They were at home, after all!
It seemed like Layla really was not feeling well.
“Hayden, I was worried about you two so I came home to check on you. How’s your sister?” Avery asked gently
then walked towards the children’s room.
“She’s asleep,” Hayden explained. “Don’t worry, Mommy.”
Avery responded, then watched her daughter who was fast asleep on the bed and touched her forehead.
Her temperature was normal.
“Go back to work, Mommy!” Hayden said tenderly as he looked up at his mother.
“I’ll stay home with you guys.”
Avery recalled how she had been too busy with work recently and ended up neglecting the children.
“Uncle Mike said that things weren’t settled at the company yet,” Hayden said, going straight to the point. “Go to
work, Mommy!”
Avery’s cheeks flushed in embarrassment.
“Don’t worry. I’ll settle things soon.”

Once Avery was gone, Hayden quickly shut the front door.
On the other hand, Layla leaped out of bed.
“That was close, Hayden!” Layla said as she let out a sigh. “It’s a good thing Uncle Mike called to let us know.
Mommy would be really mad if she came home and didn’t see us here!”
Hayden’s face was void of emotion.”
He picked up his backpack, put on his cap, then said, “Stay home. I’m going alone.”
“No way! I’m coming with you! I’ll be scared if I stay home alone!”
Layla quickly picked up her own bag and ran after her brother.
The siblings walked out of the neighborhood and hailed a cab.
Once they were in the car, they asked the driver to take them to a high-end hotėl.
It was the hotel where Elliot Foster’s engagement party would be held the next day.
“Hayden, you said you wanted to give Dirtbag Dad a huge surprise… What kind of surprise is it? How big is it?”
Layla asked as her bright eyes glistened with sparks of curiosity.
“I can’t tell you.”
Layla pouted and asked, “Why not?” “It’s not suitable for children.”
