Chapter 846
By the time Avery walked her way back home, it was already evening.
The weather was not great today, and it had turned dark outside earlier.
Mrs.Cooper was shocked to see her drenched and in a daze.
"What happened, Avery?"
Mrs.Cooper held Avery’s hand.
"Did you not want Master Elliot to leave? Don’t be like that.You can go back to Aryadelle whenever you want, right?"
Avery shook her head, then croaked, "Where are the kids?"
"Robert is sleeping.Layla and Hayden are taking a shower.They were making a snowman in the front yard earlier and got soaked," said Mrs.Cooper.
"You’re drenched, Avery.Go and take a hot shower.Do you need my help?"
Avery shook her head, then turned away and headed toward the bedroom.
Mrs.Cooper was worried and followed behind her.
"By the way, don’t mention Elliot Foster in front of the children ever again."
Avery stopped in her tracks, then turned to Mrs.Cooper and continued, "We broke up.You and Mrs.Scarlet work for him…"
She could not bring herself to continue the rest of her sentence.She wanted to send Mrs.Cooper and Mrs.Scarlet back to Elliot.
Since they were broken up, she could not continue to keep them by her side.
Mrs.Cooper’s face turned pale as she could not accept what she just heard.
"This is too sudden, Avery! I… I don’t know what to say, but I want to stay here and take care of Robert."
"You work for him, though.From now on, I won’t have anything to do with him.I like you, but I don’t want to continue to have any connection to him because of you," Avery said, revealing her thoughts.
Mrs.Cooper’s eyes filled with tears.
She did not know what to do.
At this moment, Mrs.Scarlet walked over and said to Avery, "I don’t know what happened between the two of you, Avery.It’s regretful, but I’ve spent my whole life working as a nanny for the Fosters.I will be leaving tomorrow."
