NovelEnglishChapter 183 After Elliot left the office, Mike returned into the office.
“What does your ex-husband want with you? He looks very fierce. Did he bully you?” Mike asked as he
brought Avery to her chair and gave her a glass of water.
At first, Avery was feeling very angry. After seeing how attentive Mike was, Avery felt a little relieved,
“He thought you were my boyfriend and I did not deny it. Will it cause any trouble to
you?”
Mike blinked his eyes and said, “Just your boyfriend? If you want, I can be your husband. We can get
married now.”
Avery said, “I don’t plan on getting married. Leave the space to write your true love’s name on it.”
Mike said with a depressed face, “I don’t plan on getting married too. My ex hurt me too deeply. I don’t
think there is a true love for me in this world.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMany years ago, Mike had a tumor inside of his brain. Avery was the one who operated on it and the
operation was successful. However, in the midst of his illness, his boyfriend who Mike had been with for
five years, dumped him. After the operation, Mike and Avery founded Alpha Technologies.
“Stop thinking about the unhappy thoughts. Have you found a place to stay? I can book a hotel for you
if you haven’t.” Avery took out her phone and wanted to search for a hotel.
“I’m going to stay with you. I have already brought my luggage to your house. Your mother was very
friendly to me,” said Mike pleasingly, “Think about our relationship. Your house is my house. Why
should I stay in a hotel?”
Avery was speechless. However, she was not going to argue with him since Mike was gay.
Hayden did not attend school today. He and Layla went to Cole’s company. They wanted to know who
their real birth father was. Since Elliot was a harder target to get close to, they had no choice but to
start with Cole.
During the lunch break, Cole walked out of his office and planned to have lunch at a nearby restaurant.
Layla appeared in front of the office with her backpack.
Cole immediately recognized Layla since Layla had given him a long-lasting impression with her doll-
like hair. He had been having nightmares for a few nights. He dreamt that Layla was the one who had
hacked his phone with a trojan horse virus.
Every time Cole woke up, he would not believe it. Who could have thought such a small child who
might still be drinking milk could master the skill of the trojan horse virus.
“Kiddo!” Cole walked toward Layla and grabbed her arm, “Why are you here? Are you looking for me?”
Layla blinked her round, energetic eyes and nodded her head, “Uncle, I have been looking for
you!”
“Why are you looking for me? You borrowed my phone to call your father previously but I did not find
the number you dialled.” Cole held Layla’s hand and headed toward a nearby restaurant.

“Because I forgot my father’s phone number. I found him afterward and my father wanted me to say
thank you to you. He even asked me to bring you a gift,” said Layla with clear pronunciation of words
and perfect sentence structure.
Cole could not help but blame himself. How could he suspect such a small kid to input a trojan horse
virus into his phone? Look at how pretty and pure she was. Her father must be a well mannered
gentleman.
“Did your father bring you here?” Cole asked.
Layla nodded and tried to explain, “My father works around here. He had something to do so he went
back to his office.”
Before Cole could ask another question, Layla took out the gift and put it on the floor. It was a small
electrical toy.
“Uncle, can you switch it on?” Layla asked.
Cole squatted down and looked for the switch. At that time, Layla moved quickly and used her fingers
to pull a few strands of Cole’s hair.
