Half an hour later, Tammy and Jun arrived at Avery's mansion.
Avery welcomed them enthusiastically.
It was Avery's first tmeeting Tiffany, so she had prepared an envelope filled with money for the child.
"She is still so little, what use would she have for the money?" Unable to refuse Avery's gift, Tammy accepted it with resignation.
"My daughter looks dazed all the time, and she's either eating or sleeping through the day. She isn’t scared of strangers at this age
so you can hold her!
Avery wanted to hold Tiffany but was concerned that she might accidentally drop her as her eyesight had not fully recovered, but
when she saw Tiffany's adorable face, Avery could not contain herself any longer and accepted the baby from Tammy's hands.
"New-borns are all like this. As she grows, she will need less and less sleep." Avery sat down on the couch with Tiffany in her arms
while playing with her chubby cheeks with a smile. "Tiffany, have you gone and played with Layla and Robert?"
"Both Robert and Layla have started school, so | only bring Tiffany over during weekends," Tammy said. "But Elliot would be at
hduring weekends, too, so | don't dare to stay too long. The atmosphere is just weird, you know?"

"You can get Mrs. Cooper to take Layla and Robert to your house instead."
"Layla has classes during weekends, and I'm not that close to Mrs. Cooper. | don't feel comfortable asking her to do that," Tammy
complained. "It's just not the swithout you around."
Avery's eyes glittered awkwardly. At least Tammy could see Layla and Robert, whereas it had been months since Avery had seen
her children.
"Avery, why are your eyes red?" Jun noticed the redness around Avery's eyes when he sat down across her.
Avery had just had the stitches removed from her eyes and her eyes were red from it. She decided to brush it off with an excuse
and said, "Probably because | didn’t sleep well."
"Jun Hertz, isn't it obvious? How can Avery sleep well?" Tammy said. "Even if we were to neglect all the things that b*st*rd Elliot
did, Avery has already suffered enough from him getting custody of Layla :e#?
XKW: Robert for himself!"
Jun's hand flew up to cover his mouth.
"Tammy, | feel much better now. So long as Layla and Robert are doing great with him, | don't really worry about them," Avery said
with a gentle smile. "We will just see how it goes, one step at a time."
"Yeah. How is Hayden doing?" Tammy scanned the living room. "It's hard to tell that you actually have a kid staying here from the
looks of it."
"Hayden's things are all in his room," Avery explained. "His studies have been really hectic lately. He heads out early and comes
hlate. His schedule is even more cramped than Mike's, so I'm usually alone at home." "You haven't been going to work?"
Tammy had not caught up with Avery for a while, and so, she was unaware of how Avery had been living her life. Avery's phone had
been switched off the entire time, and she had not informed Tammy when she had it back on. On top of that, Tammy had just given
birth and was too occupied with taking care of her daughter to pay much attention to anything else.
Tammy had traveled to Bridgedale not only to visit Avery, but also to take a break, as she was on the verge of a mental breakdown
because she had been staying hall day, every day, looking after the baby.

Avery shook her head. "I've been staying hto rest."
"I thought you would keep your schedule packed with stuff to do to keep your mind from wandering like before." "That was just my
way of running away from the problem," Avery said calmly." When the truth is, my mind wouldn't wander so long as | let go."
"Avery, how did you becso free-spirited? How did you do it?" Tammy was surprised at how much Avery had changed. "Elliot
has turned himself into a demon, and you are here, looking as though you have found inner peace."
"Haha, the only one who can makelet go is myself. How long do you plan on staying here? Mike and | can take you guys
shopping."
"My mom only gavea week's worth of time, so I'll stay here for a week. It's so cold here! | don't even dare to take my daughter
outside. We can still wear skirts back in Aryadelle, and we need to wear layers of coats here!" Tammy pouted.
"Tammy, you can go hang out with Avery. | can stay hto watch our kid," Jun suggested.
"Are you sure?" Tammy itched to take the offer.
"Your mom said that I'm even better at taking care of Tiffany than our nanny, remember?" Jun said proudly.
