"You didn't beatthat seriously! I'm fine now, as you can see." She listened to him blhimself, looked at his guilty eyes, and becmore and more afraid to tell him about her illness.
"Don't throw yourself in front of other men in the future. No one deserves this except children." "I know." She did regret it.
She didn't think that much when she blocked Mike's fist.
It was merely impulsive; she wouldn't have done it if she remembered she had undergone surgery.
After turning off the lights, she lay in bed, unable to sleep.
Elliot fell asleep quickly.
He had played poker at his uncle's house for a day today. He said he was very sleepy at the tand kept his spirits high.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe people from his uncle's side were like strangers to him.
Besides, he didn't like playing poker at all.
He could play with people he knew for a while, but it was boring to play with unfamiliar people.
She opened her eyes and looked into the dimly lit room, replaying what happened in the hospital today in her mind.
Her psychological endurance was extreme, and she had already made sufficient psychological preparations for anything that might happen.
She also knew very well the cause of her illness.
Her current brain hemorrhage was caused by a severe blow, not a tumor, so she might not need a craniotomy.
She had blackouts before because the optic nerve had been compressed, but she didn't realize that, and the optic nerve never returned to its normal state.
She had given serious thought to it; the worst she could get was blindness. It was not a life-threatening condition.
Blindness sounded scary, but it actually wasn't.
Even if she went blind, she could recover with a cornea transplant.
After sorting out the matter in her mind, she felt there was no need to tell Elliot about it.
If she told him, he would feel that everything was caused by him, and he would blhimself even more.
The next day, Avery got up early and went to her children's room to choose clothes for Layla.
"Mom, you're happy to go to Tammy's house today, aren't you?" Layla, with long messy hair, sat beside the bed ?d%:ULT; said leisurely, "We've been to Mike's house before and also went to Eric's house; you didn't seem so keen to go there at that time.
Avery was a little embarrassed when her daughter saw through her mind, "Tammy is my best friend." "Aren't Mike and Eric your best friends?" "It's different. Tammy is my best friend, Mike and Eric are my good friends, but they are not my best friends." Avery brought out a new dress and put it on for her daughter.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Mom, if you say something like this, Mike and Eric will be sad if they find out." "Then it's better if you don't tell them." "Then givea kiss, and I'll keep your secret." Layla offered.
Avery immediately kissed her soft cheek.
Lilith cto pay New Year's greetings in the Schaffer's residence with a generous gift.
When the two elders of the Schaffer family saw her, their eyes suddenly lit up.
Lilith’s hair was tied into a high ponytail, revealing her confident face.
She looked completely different from the last tthey met.
The two elders had heard that Lilith was living in Elliot's house now, so they assumed that Elliot had already recognized his sister.
They naturally hoped that Ben could form a family with Lilith.
"Mrs. Schaffer, Mr. Schaffer, Happy New Year," Lilith said cautiously.
