She should have arrived in Bridgedale by now.
Why was her phone still not working? Had she turned it off, or had she blocked him? "Mom..." Layla burned in a daze on the stretcher, muttering in a low voice, "Mom ... brother., don't go . don't leave me..." Elliot looked at his daughter's little face whispering words in pain and tightened his fingers holding the phone.
Why was Avery so cruel? Being cruel to him was enough; how could she be so cruel to the child? Did she plan to cut the child off? She had suddenly becso unfamiliar to him! He couldn't help but wonder, did he really make a big mistake? He redialed Avery's number and got the sresponse as just now.
It seemed that she didn’t plan to contact them again.
Layla was pushed out of the ambulance when it arrived at the hospital and had her temperature taken.
At home, the temperature taken by Mrs. Cooper did not exceed 38.5 degrees, but now, Layla's temperature had exceeded 40 degrees! The doctor immediately prescribed feverreducing medication for Layla.
Elliot went to buy medicine for Layla, and then the doctor handed him two prescriptions.

Elliot took Layla into his arms.
Layla’s body was shaking, and sweat was all over her forehead.
She was like a fireball, blazing with heat.
After the bodyguard brought the medicine and the nurse gave Layla an injection, Elliot relaxed.
This was the first tLayla had a high fever.
His children would be well taken care of if Avery was by his side.
Even if there was a minor illness or pain, she could help the child heal without going to the hospital.
Now, as soon as she left, the child fell sick, as if it was God's punishment for him.
After about half an hour, Layla started to sweat like crazy.
Her hair was wet, and her clothes were soaking wet.
Elliot went out in a hurry and did not bring clean clothes and tissues for the child.
After a while, Layla's fever subsided, :e#? YJW< she felt a little cold from sweating too much.
At four in the morning, Elliot asked the bodyguard to buy them stissues and water from nearby.
After Layla's fever subsided, she fell asleep peacefully in his arms.
Although his daughter had fallen quiet now, her brows were still wrinkled.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe was afraid that if his daughter woke up when he had not contacted Avery and found that she still had to stay by his side, she would continue to make trouble for him.
Could her body handle that? He held his daughter in one hand, turned on his mobile phone with the other, and sent Avery a message: [Avery, Layla had a fever at a temperature of 40.5 degrees. | didn't take good care of her. Maybe her followingwas the wrong choice. She already has her own thoughts and opinions, she needs you and Hayden.
Avery, can you not be so cruel for the sake of the child? | can be punished, but the child is innocent. You said back then that you would raise the children with me.] After sending the message, he knew she would not reply, but he still turned on his phone repeatedly to see if there were any new messages.
Before he knew Avery, he had never been so humble.
Now, doing such a thing, he didn’t feel uncomfortable at all.
He and Avery had known each other for all these years. He had confessed, repented, apologized, and begged her to forgive her more than once.
Sometimes he could soften her heart; sometimes, he couldn't.
He had a powerful premonition in his heart that she would ignore him this tand she would not cback.
The two of them would probably never meet again in the future.
