"Elliot, what are you doing?" The two had just returned from the paternity test center. Avery had gone back to the bedroom to sleep but had struggled to do so. On the other hand, Elliot had not been tired, so he had not gone into the bedroom with her.
She went downstairs to find Elliot preparing tools that looked to be fishing gear.

She looked at him curiously. "Where will you go fishing, Elliot? Maybe in our backyard by the artificial hill?" Elliot looked at her quizzically.
There was indeed an artificial hill in his backyard with a pond that had plenty of fishes next to it. However, the idea of fishing there was simply ridiculous, as there was no meaning to fishing there.
He did not even need the fishing pod and could simply grab a net, which would guarantee that he would get a lot of fish at once. "Elliot, this fishing rod looks so cool!" Avery picked it up. "It's so heavy, though. If I was the one using this, my wrist might just break before I even get any fish." "Your wrists were fine when you were caring for Robert. He was much heavier than the rod." "How can you compare the two?" Avery handed the rod back to him. "Let's go to the yard and try this out. If you manage to get fish, we can proceed outside." "Sure." Elliot decided to display his skills in the pond, knowing that Avery would be too concerned to let him outside if he didn't. The weather was cold and heading out to fish despite not having the required skills would only mean that he was heading out to sit in the cold over nothing.
Chapter 2329 1 Avery went toward the edge of the pond and looked inside.
Chapter 2329 2 Mrs. Cooper had brought out a chair for Avery as well, so she took her seat and waited as Elliot mixed the fish bait.

While the bodyguards went to do so, Avery stood from her chair while Elliot continued working on the bait.
"Why don't we open the fountain? It's been a while since we did." Avery looked at the music fountain next to the pond and said to Mrs. Cooper.
"Sure. I will do that now." Mrs. Cooper ran back into the house excitedly to switch on the water fountain.
Instantly, music started to flow and colorful lights began to shine as the water fountain was turned on, forming a beautiful view under the lights.
Elliot's heart sank at the sight, wondering if the music would scare away the fishes. However, seeing how excited Avery seemed, he didn't have the heart to voice out his concerns.
