Chapter 1924
Elliot: “Well. They all seem to have died when you were young.”
“My grandfather died when I was four years old, and my grandmother was grief-stricken because of my grandfather’s death, which caused the aggravation of various chronic diseases in the body, In the end, she died of pain.” Avery said this, her eyes could not help moistening, “Before they died, I was protected by someone at home, and I didn’t suffer any hardships. As soon as my grandparents left, Wanda was unscrupulous.”
“Why did grandpa die?” Elliot looked into her eyes distressedly.
Seeing the tears in the corners of her eyes, Elliot stretched out his hand reflexively.
Avery pushed his hand away and wiped away her tears: “My grandpa suddenly fell and injured his brain, and he was not rescued. I remembered it very clearly, when my father took me to the hospital to see grandpa for the last time, I was hope that I can cure him. Let him continue to be by my side and protect me.”
“Avery, don’t be sad. Your grandparents must be watching you from the sky now and continue to protect you.” Elliot held her hand and continued Going forward, “There’s bound to be a lot of dark things happening where we can’t see, but on the bright side, there’s also a lot of good things happening. If our daughter is alive and dead, and if the person who adopted her is a good person.. …it’s all possible.”
“You’re self-deception and self-paralysis.” While exposing him, Avery pulled her hand out of his big palm, “I’m not cold, why are you holding my hand? “
“Can you pull me when it’s cold?” Elliot asked back.
“Don’t be a bull’s-eye.” Avery gave him a deep look, looked at his face, and asked, “I have a boyfriend, and you are still like this, do you want to know what to do with you?”
“Aren’t you and your boyfriend married yet? Since you are not married, your relationship is not protected by the law.” Elliot defended himself, “If other people fall in love, if they are in a different place, they basically keep their mobile phones with them and send messages and calls to their partners every day. Why didn’t I see your boyfriend calling you?”
Avery didn’t expect Elliot to be so scheming that he was secretly observing her ‘love’.
