"You guys should never say such a thing in front of Avery." Lilith felt that Avery was under a lot of pressure. "She didn't even return together with Elliot, so she certainly must be more anxious about this than anybody else."
"I haven't been in contact with her since I returned to the country. I know that she's busy, so I didn’t dare to disturb her," said Ben, then he looked at Elliot. "Elliot, I feel that you're having quite a good mental state now. In comparison to a while ago, you look like you have put on a little weight as well. Avery has been taking quite good care of you!"
Lilith said, "Did he put on a little weight? I feel that he is much thinner than before." "That’s because you haven't seen how he looked when Avery had just brought him back. He was extremely thin at that time and just looked a little scary," Ben exaggerated, "I didn't dare to tell you back then as I was afraid that you'll be heartbroken."
Lilith felt a lump in her throat.
"Alright. Elliot is back now. Don't be sad," said Ben, then he reminded Elliot, "Shea has heard that you're returning today, so she has already brought the children over to your place last night to stay over."
When Elliot heard Shea's name, the expression on his face instantly became much gentler.
Not long after, the car arrived at Elliot’s mansion.
The car slowed down and gradually drove into the courtyard.
Shea, Wesley, Layla, Robert, Jun, Tammy, Kiara, and Tiffany were all there in the courtyard. One by one, all of them walked out of the mansion.
When Elliot got out of the car, they all walked toward him.
The mansion was so lively. It was as if it was New Year's Day.
"Why are all of you here?" He was not used to being surrounded by so many people. " Layla, why aren't you guys in school?"
"Dad, you've already died once and you almost couldn't come back. If I still went to school as usual, won't you be sad?"
Layla looked at her father’s face and said miserably, "Fortunately, you're back.
Otherwise, I won’t have a father anymore." While Layla said that, tears started to well up in her eyes.
