Chapter 517 “Why did you sleep in the same room?” Tammy asked.
She was an expert at picking up on key points like that.
“We were in the middle of a storm,” Avery said. “It’s not like I could just kick him out.”
“I see. Did you sleep in bed together? How could you let him in your bed? He didn’t even make an effort, but all it
took was a storm for you to let him get his35 way?!”
Avery froze for a moment, then said, “We didn’t do anything… Well, he didn’t exactly do nothing at all…”
“I knew he would have done something toe8 you…”
Avery had a feeling the conversation was heading toward a strange direction, then quickly interjected and said, “It’s
not what you think, Tammy! He just… He washed… My… Feet…”
She did not want to mention this, but Tammy’s seething glare was too79 intense!
Then, Tammy chuckled delightfully an said, “Way to go, Mr. Foster! Not only can those noble hands of his earn
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtmoney, they can also wash a woman’s feet! Is this ability to endure humiliation and roll with the punches the secret
to his success?! It’s no wonder everything works out for successful people! If a man traveled thousands of miles just
to wash my feet, then I would throw down my guard and surrender to him!”
Bursts of laughter suddenly filled the entire87 house!
Avery’s cheeks were burning as she held onto her glass of water with both hands and thought of Elliot.
She wondered if he would be upset that she let this incident7a slip.
After all, it was something that others could use to make a joke out of him in the future.
Out in the front yard, Wesley had stepped out for some air. Shea had unexpectedly followed him out of the house.
“Hi, Mr. Wesley,” she said.
Wesley smiled and said, “Just call me Wesley.”
“Wesley, are you a doctor, too?” Shea asked as she gazed at him with eyes filled with admiration.
“I am, but I’m not that skilled. I’m just a normal doctor,” Wesley answered as his cheeks turned pink
Shea flashed a grin and said, “It would be great if you could cure me. I don’t like Dr. Sanford or the doctor she
recommended.”
The smile on Wesley’s face froze.
“I would definitely help you if I could,” he said.
“I believe you, Wesley,” Shea said. She was so moved that she held onto his hands and said, “. You’re Avery’s good
friend. You must be a good person.”
Wesley instinctively escaped her grasp as he felt the gesture was inappropriate between a
single man and woman.
However, as her innocent gaze reminded him that she was not like normal people, he got annoyed at himself for
having such improper thoughts.
“Avery really hopes you get better soon, Shea,” Wesley said.
“Mrs. Scarlet told me that Avery refused to treat me.” Shea’s tone was sorrowful, but the soft smile on her face
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmremained. “She said that Avery won’t help me because she’s mad at my big brother, but it looks like they might
make up soon!”
Wesley watched her innocent smile as he said bitterly, “Avery can’t cure you right now, Shea. If she could, she
would not refuse to help just because of her relationship with your brother.”
“I see. Does that mean there’s no cure for me?” Shea asked, then mumbled to herself, “I think things are pretty
good as they are now.”
Wesley plucked a flower from the flower bed and handed it to her.
“This is a sunflower. It represents hope. I’m giving it to you, so there will definitely be hope for you in the future.”
Back in the kitchen, Elliot was wearing a pair of gloves as he followed the instructions in a cookbook and marinated
some ribs.
Avery liked ribs, so he decided to make some sweet barbecue ribs.
Suddenly, Layla walked in and stood next to him.
“You’re behaving well all of a sudden, Elliot Foster. Do you have an ulterior motive?” she huffed as she lifted her
head to look at him with a frown. “Do you want to take the baby in Mommy’s belly away? The baby is ours. I won’t
give it to you!”
