Elliot and Avery novel Chapter 822

Elliot’s breathing was a little heavy as if he was thinking about this question. 

“A few days later.” 

If Avery did not ask him about this, he never thought about it.

“Oh…if you can’t sleep, you could go out.” Avery was afraid that Elliot would be bored. 

“If you find it boring to go out alone, you can take Mike with you.”

“Do you think we get along well with each other?” Elliot sneered and asked, “Aren’t you tired? Am I disturbing you?” 

Avery took a deep breath.

 “I am very sleepy, but at the thought that you’re next to me…” 

“Do you want me to leave?” Elliot did not want to disturb her rest. 

“Where could you go?” Avery muttered softly, “It’s not entirely because you’re next to me that’s why I can’t sleep. I feel that we have conflicts that are not resolved yet, but I can’t pinpoint it.”

“Avery, if you keep thinking of unhappy things, you won’t be able to sleep tonight.” Elliot patted her on the shoulders. 

“Flip over.”

“What are you doing?” Avery did not understand but she still flipped over obediently. 

“Don’t think about anything, just close your eyes.” He placed his huge palms on her lower back. He started gently massaging her. He heard that after birth, a woman’s lower back would be extremely sore. He could not bear her pain on his behalf, so he could only help her relieve it. His warm fingers were like magic. 

It released all of her tensions. She felt as if she was floating on clouds. Her body never felt that relaxed. Avery wanted to ask Elliot who did he learn that from but because she was too comfortable, she forgot to ask. Soon after, she slept soundly. 

After she slept, Elliot cuddled her in his arms. He longed for her familiar smell. He missed her soft body and mesmerizing smile. Even if she was sometimes overbearing, he wanted to be with her.
