However, Elliot remembered that at that point of the conversation, there was nothing substantial later.
"Avery, give me some time. I'll be back latest within a week. Wait for me to return. I'll apologize to you again then."
After that, all he could hear was the airport noise and his conversation with Ben.
Ben asked him if Avery was unwilling to let him go to Ylore. Ben said he could go to Ylore alone. Elliot said that Ivy was his daughter, and he had to go there.
If just by listening to the conversation, he would still make the same choice. Avery had not told him that she had lost her sight during that call! She had not!
He wanted to play the conversation for Ben. He did not unjustly blame Avery. If there was a misunderstanding, he had not caused it. Why was he blamed for being cruel and heartless?
He clutched his forehead. His mind was a mess.
At Bridgedale, Avery got up according to Hayden's schedule.
If she could successfully apply for a doctoral course, then she and Hayden would be able to go to school together.
During breakfast, Mike called her.
"Avery, I'm at Aryadelle. Everything is alright."
"Hmm. No one has been in my place for a very long time. I'm guessing it's quite dirty. If Chad doesn't mind, you should stay at his place!"
"Tsk! It is very noble of me to not mind that he is Elliot's lapdog. How dare he despise me?"
"Watch your harsh words. You might get beaten up."
"He is right next to me! He hasn't hit me." Mike laughed smugly.
Avery asked, "How are you planning to see Layla?"
"Come home earlier tonight." Avery sent him out of the door.
After Hayden left, Avery returned to the mansion :b">SLW: heard her phone ringing. She walked over to the dining table and picked up her phone. When she saw it was a call from Jun, she was a little stumped.
It was midnight back in Aryadelle. Did Jun fight with Tammy, and that was why he was calling her at this hour?
She answered the call. "Jun, is everything alright?"
"Y-Yes. Avery, there is something I want to tell you. Tammy and I bought a toy car for Robert today. We sent it over when we bumped into Elliot. Then, we chatted for a while. I think he doesn't know that you had conjunctivitis back then! Also, did you lose your sight due to conjunctivitis? He heard from Ben that you had lost your sight, so he asked us."
Avery was stunned. She gasped. "You said that he didn't know about this?"
"He didn’t directly say that he didn't know about this, but he looks like he clearly did not know. If not, why would he specifically ask us about this?" Jun replied.
