Chapter 257 She simply could not find a way to change her views on Elliot.
“Mr. Foster, let’s go back!” the bodyguard said. “Your clothes are wet. If we don’t go home and get you changed, you will catch a cold.”
It was early autumn, and even with the sun above their heads, the temperature had dropped significantly
“I‘m not cold,” Elliot said in a steady and calm voice.
Seeing how stubborn he was, the bodyguard realized that Elliot was not going to change his mind and resorted to waiting alongside him.
Shortly after, a red Porsche Kayenne slowly drove toward. It stopped beside Elliot. The car window rolled down, and Mike poked his head out.
“Hey, why are you here?” Mike was shocked to see Elliot drenched from head to toe. “Did it rain?”
The bodyguard glared at him impatiently, “It‘s that brat Hayden‘s doing!”
“Oh... As expected of Big H! He always has the guts to do what I wouldn’t dare to!”
The bodyguard could only stare daggers at him. Mike cleared his throat and got out of the car. “You two look so silly standing here! Allow me to invite you in!”
With that, he strode toward the mansion‘s entrance.
After a few moments of hesitation, Elliot followed.
Mike keyed in the password and unlocked the gate.
When Laura saw Mike leading Elliot into the house, her expression darkened, but she did not say a word.
“Laura, I‘ll just take him to get a change of clothes. I won‘t stop you if you want to chase him out after that,” said Mike to Laura.
Laura nodded, and so, Mike brought Elliot up to the second floor.
Hayden and Layla heard the sound of footsteps and immediately ran to stand outside the door of their mother’s room.
“We are going to protect Mom! We won‘t let that jerk near her!” they thought.
When Elliot reached the first floor, he instantly spotted the two children, who were standing before a door. The look of determination on their faces betrayed their mother’s whereabouts.
Layla and Hayden stepped toward the bed, and they were both terrified when they noticed Avery shivering like a leaf caught in a gale.
