She had been about to go to sleep, but was now completely awake after the phone call.

It doesn't matter much even if Dean Jennings is coming back to life." "Alright! Maybe he was too happy and forgot about the time," Avery explained. "Sebastian has stopped Natalie from obtaining money in any way. It's pleasant news." "Do you really think that she has no other way to make money?" Elliot said calmly. "Let's forget about her. If she dares to do anything to us, I will make her disappear forever." "Okay. Let's sleep! I want to take a look at your plans for Christmas tomorrow and pick out the one we want. We can finally lay back and relax," she said, chasing out all thoughts about anyone and anything else. "We will need to go to the hospital tomorrow for your appointment." "Let's go to sleep, then! I hope everything goes smoothly tomorrow and that nothing will cin the way of our trip during Christmas." "Probably not. You seem healthy, so I know you are going to be fine." Avery held onto him. "You might even live longer than I do." Elliot's calm mood instantly transformed into panic. "Why are you saying that? Are you sick?" "No! I'm just saying. Don't panic." Avery couldn't help but chuckle. "You have a habit of working out and I don't. If nothing unexpected happens, you are definitely living longer than I do." "Let's not get ahead of ourselves. I will take you withwhen I work out from now on." "Even if you do that, one of us is bound to leave this world before the other one." Avery wanted him to view death objectively. "If that's the case, you don't have to callalong to work out." Elliot had no response to that.
"Let's sleep! I prefer sleeping." The next morning, Avery and Elliot woke up and went downstairs, just in tto run into Layla.
Layla's heart sank when she saw them. "Are we eating ravioli again?" Avery smiled. "No ravioli today. Even if there is, it won't be made by your dad and me." "Why are you up so early, then? I would sleep in every day if I was you." Layla headed downstairs.
"Your dad has an appointment with the hospital today. He's probably a bit nervous, so he woke up early," Avery explained.

"It's alright Darling. I'm not that nervous. just woke up early because Hayden is coming back soon. We will all be together again." Elliot patted Layla's head with a smile. After breakfast, Avery accompanied Elliot to the hospital for his appointment.
As she had anticipated, Elliot was recovering well.
"You are recovering well with Doctor Tate by your side to take care of you!" The doctor teased. "All you need to watch out for is to not touch your wound, and everything else will be fine. You can go back to your normal lifestyle and work!" Elliot was overjoyed to hear that. "Avery, did you hear what the doctor said?" The doctor immediately cto a realization when he noticed the awkward expression on Avery's face.
"Um... Mr. Foster, you should listen to your wife instead of me," the doctor corrected.
"Okay. Thank you, Doctor," Avery thanked the doctor and pulled Elliot out of the office. "Elliot, let's talk about where we should go during Christmas!" Św"Yeah. Are we traveling inside the country? We can travel further." Elliot had started considering himself to be completely recovered.
