"What's funnier is that the detective I hired told me that Avery met up with him and offered him a high price to look for Ivy." Elliot could not understand Avery's
actions. "How could she use all her assets to look for Ivy?"
Chad could hear that Elliot was still worried for Avery. Otherwise, he would not worry or mention Avery using up all her resources to find Ivy.
"Mr. Foster, although Avery is not as rich as you, she is trying her best."
"I told her that I have been getting people to look for Ivy, but she doesn't believe me. She insists on doing it herself."
"Mr. Foster, you shouldn't be bothered by what she does. After all, you two are
already divorced. You will live your lives without crossing each other," Chad said calmly.
Elliot's expressions changed when he heard what Chad said. Previously, whenever he brought up their relationship, Chad would always find ways to set them up. His go-to excuse was that they should put up with each other for the sake of the children.
However, at that moment, Chad was asking them to not disturb each other.
"You've changed." Elliot's eyes darkened. He measured Chad up. "What did Mike tell you last night?"
Chad felt exposed. He said sheepishly, "N-Nothing. I sent you a message about whatever he told me. Later, we got drunk." "So who told you to tell me that Avery and I should live our separate lives?" "I said it myself ... Did I say something wrong?" Chad pretended to look innocent and asked, "Do you have any other thoughts or plans?"
Elliot said, "Get out."
Chad quickly left as if he was pardoned.
In the evening, everyone was gathering at Avery's.
The gathering comprised of Jun, Tammy, Ben, Lilith, Wesley, Shea, and all their children.
Shea was extremely delighted that they praised Kiara. "My mother-in-law mainly looks after Kiara. If I were to look after her, they would worry to death," Shea said self-deprecatingly.
"What is there to be worried about? You did well carrying her just now!" Avery said. " But caring for children is tough. Your mother-in-law is willing to care for Kiara, you should just watch by the side, but why don't you all hire a nanny?"
"We have hired a nanny previously, but
Kiara was such a great kid, my mother-in-law thinks she can handle it on her own, so we no longer needed the nanny," Shea explained. "My mother-in-law is looking after Kiara well. She often makes me soup too-"
"Hahaha! So many of us are looking at you. If anyone in Wesley's family doesn't treat you well, we'll stand up for you," Ben interrupted with a smile.
Shea blushed a little and turned to look at Wesley.
Wesley was standing outside talking on the phone, but he was facing indoors. After he met Shea’s gaze, he quickly ended the call.
