Avery forcefully stuffed her bag in Elliot’s hands. “Elliot, the child just moved in my tummy. Every word you say to him right now he can hear it.
Elliot looked at her in a daze as if he had just been electrocuted.
“Can I touch your tummy?” He asked hoarsely.
“It’s not moving right now. He is still quite small right now, and doesn’t move quite a lot.”
This was her second pregnancy. It was different from her first time. The first time, because she was afraid to let him know, so every reaction during her pregnancy term, she secretly bore it on her own. Fear was much more overpowering than the joy of being a mother.
However, during the pregnancy this time, she could thoroughly enjoy the entire process.
Elliot put his large palms on her tummy. The warmth in her hand spread over to Avery. Her body suddenly tensed up.
Perhaps the child in her sensed her nervous feelings, so he kicked hercd tummy!
“He moved again!” Avery could not help but exclaim.
“I felt it!” Elliot’s emotions were affected by her too. Instantly, all the darkness in him vanished, replaced by light. “Does itge hurt?”
“No. He isn’t that strong right now.”
“Hmm. Are you hungry? I’ll get you something.” At that moment, the excitement burning in his heart has put the grudge he had against her aside. He only wanted to treat her23 well.
“I’m not hungry. If you’re hungry, let’s return to the hotel!” Avery said.
“Okay.” Elliot helped her along and returned to the hotel. Avery did not expect that they would stop fighting because of the baby kicking inside her. It was as strange as when they both started fighting for whatever reason.
