Chapter 1180
Reaching the second floor, Avery first entered the master bedroom and opened his wardrobe. In the closet, there
were basically no less clothes for him.
“Avery, Elliot didn’t come to pack.” Mrs. Cooper caught up and saw her standing in front of the closet, so she said,
“He used a black bag to pack not many things.”
“Yes, daily necessities could be bought at any time. He didn’t need to bring these.” Avery closed the wardrobe door
and walked towards his study room and asked, “Did he say anything?”
Mrs. Cooper: “Nothing.”
“Nothing?” Avery Didn’t dare to believe.
Mrs. Cooper said truthfully, “That’s not true. I told him that you waited for him until late last night, and he asked me
to take care of the child and don’t worry about other things. Avery, all I can do is take good care of Robert. I can’t
help you with other things.”

walked to the door of his study and wannted to open the door.
Mrs. Cooper said and walked away immediately, “Then I’ll go downstairs first.”
Avery pushed open the study door and entered the study. She turned on the room light, and the room suddenly
brightened like daylight.
On his desk, the clean and tidy notebook was there. The whole wall of bookshelves next to it did not any change.
Perhaps what Elliot took away was what was in his safe.
She walked to his desk and saw his safe.She hadn’t remembered the password to his safe. He had written her a
note with his safe code on it.
If Avery wanted to open his safe, just look for the note.
The note was supposed to be in the interlayer of her bag, but her feet seemed to be filled with lead and she
couldn’t move at all.
What if it was confirmed that he had taken the contents of the safe?
His heart was no longer in this home, and she can’t stop him when he wanted to leave.
She sat down in his chair and couldn’t help thinking, what would happen to them if she happened to be home when
Elliot came back at noon?
Will there be a heated argument, or will everything be said and then reconciled as in the past after countless
arguments?
How she wished it was the latter.
In the dining hall.
Layla was sullen.
Avery had no appetite.
“Layla, are you happy at school today?” Of course Avery knew why her daughter was unhappy, but there was
nothing she could do.
“Happy.” Layla said angrily, “Mom, is Dad working overtime again?”
“Well, he’s been busy lately.” Avery didn’t want her daughter to worry. If lying would make her daughter feel at
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmease, she would do it.
“Did Dad tell you that?” Layla pressed.
“Yeah. Layla, your dad was resting at home because he was on marriage leave. He used to be so busy at work.
Actually, mom is also very busy with work, but with your Uncle Mike’s help, mom can go earlier and come back.”
Avery explained patiently.
“Okay!” Layla didn’t doubt what her mother said, so she replied, “If my father is so busy every day, I would suspect
that I don’t have a father. Tomorrow is the weekend. Does he have to work overtime tomorrow?”
Avery put down the bowl Chopsticks as her heart was even more uncomfortable.
On weekdays, she could lie to the child that Elliot had to work overtime, but what about weekends? How to cheat?
Avery changed the subject, “After dinner, Layla, let’s make a videocall with your brother. When you have summer
vacation, mom will take you and your brother to Bridgedale.”
“Oh.” Layla lowered her eyes. Suddenly, bean-sized teardrops rustled down.
Seeing her daughter like this, Avery suddenly became confused. She got up from the dining chair and walked to her
daughter: “Don’t cry baby. Mom and Dad just quarreled. It’s not as scary as you think.”
