nary. Adrian?” Mrs. Scarlet took a banana from the fruit bowl and handed it to him.”
Here, have a banana! You don’t have to be scared. Master Elliot won’t chase you away even though
he’s angry.”
Adrian took the banana and said nervously, “He’s really fierce. Is he mean to Avery?”
Mrs. Scarlet laughed softly, “Not at all. The two of them are getting married soon. She wouldn’t’ve agreed to marry
him if he was mean to her.”
Adrian lowered his eyes and peeled the banana quietly.
“Avery told you to address him as Big Brother, so you should call him that if you see him later.” Mrs. Scarlet wanted
to help ease the relationship between Adrian and Elliot.
“He won’t let me.”
“Call him that a few more times and he’ll slowly begin to accept it. He’ll be very nice to you once he accepts you

After Mrs. Scarlet left, Adrian raised his head and looked around him.
He wondered if that would be his home in the future.
That night, Avery took the initiative to pack Elliot’s luggage because she planned to bring him back to her place.
She was quite certain that he would not be able to accept Adrian so soon. Reducing their interactions with each
other would be a much safer bet.
Secondly, she was also going to get married soon, so living together in advance would be conducive to their future
life together.
Elliot frowned slightly on the way to the Starry River Villa.
“Are you worried that Hayden won’t be happy when he gets home?”
“I’m all but certain that he’ll be unhappy,” Elliot said.
“He ought to learn that not everything in life goes according to what he wants.” Avery had already prepared for the
worst. “I’ll have a good talk with him about this. Just relax and leave this to me.”
“Why is he so smart for his age?” Elliot vaguely remembered that he was never like that when he was Hayden’s
age.
“I have no idea. He grew up in the same environment as Layla, but Layla turned out to be a normal child.” Avery
postulated, “So Hayden’s intellect is probably a result of genetics, rather than external factors. It’s quite obvious
that he takes after you.”
There was nothing Elliot could say to deny it. “I guess, if you put it that way, I am kind of resentful.
“You resent him? How could you?”
I wasn’t talking about him. I was referring to myself. It would be so much better if like you. People would like him
more.”
“But I like Hayden as he is. Whenever I see him, I imagine how you must have been like this when you were young.
It’s like I traveled through time BQJkID=2 saw you.”
“I wasn’t that smart when I was young.” Elliot lamented. “Your son is probably an upgraded version of me.”
“But I think Robert will be a very lively little boy.” Avery missed her children all of a sudden.
“Wouldn’t that be wonderful?” Elliot was also missing his children a little too.
The Memorial Day weekend went by in a flash and all three children came home.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAfter the warm reunion, Avery told the news that Elliot would live at home in the future.
Hayden immediately turned around and went back to his room after hearing that.
Avery chased after him.
“I’m having a test soon,” Hayden said. “You don’t have to tell me about you and him.”
“But you don’t seem very happy.”
“Do you want me to accept him as Layla does?”
Avery hesitated for a few seconds and said, “I won’t force you, of course. But I hope you won’t treat him like he’s
your mortal enemy. He’s not a bad person, Hayden. Don’t you trust me? I can only hope that you’ll give him a
chance to turn over a new leaf. I won’t side with him if he makes another mistake in the future.”
Hayden immediately took down his stern facade.
He had an aggrieved and unwilling expression but he still asked stubbornly, “Promise me that you won’t force me.
Do you really like him that much?”
Avery hesitated for a few seconds before answering firmly, “Yes. I love him. I can never fall in love with another
man.”
Elliot just so happened to hear Avery’s answer when he carried Layla up.
