When they came out of the mall, Eric saw how they were standing closer to each other and seemed more relaxed. They looked like any other couple in the streets.
When they entered the mall, they were still tugging around as if they were fighting.
What made them reconcile so quickly was definitely not the gifts in the mall. If Elliot could resolve their conflict by giving Avery gifts, they would not fight all the time.
It looked like Elliot gave in to Avery.
When they returned to the mansion, Avery kept her gifts in her room. She never thought that Mrs. Cooper had already moved Elliot's things over.
"Didn't you say you were hungry? Go have some food first!" Elliot said.
"Hmm, I'll go pack up a little. Take my room tonight. I’ll go to the small room."
"If that's the case, I'll take the small room." Elliot did not want to take up her space. " This morning was an accident. I'll be careful in the future."
"Are you threatening me?" Avery looked at the bruise on his forehead. "Are you trying to sleep with me?"
"Forget about trying." Elliot entered the room and shut the door. "So, what if I sleep with you? Do you think I can do anything to you?"
Avery blushed red. She never thought he would say such cheap words.
"You just had a baby. What do you think I'll do to you?" He walked over to her and loomed over her, looking down at her. "How could I bear to watch you stay in the small room?"
Her misunderstanding of him immediately vanished. His body warmth overwhelmed him. She pushed him away, troubled. "Let's have some food!"
When in actuality she was not hungry.
When they were buying the necklace, the salesperson gave her some food. It tasted quite good, so she had quite some of it.
Coming out of her room, they realized that others were already seated at the dining table.
When Mrs. Cooper saw them, she immediately said, "Come eat! Layla said she was hungry, so we have started eating."
"What right does he have dictating you?" Anger flashed in Eric's eyes.
Mike chuckled, "Haha! Eric, you don't understand. Even if they are not together, that doesn't mean that they don't love each other! Elliot knocked his head this morning, he wasn't bleeding but Avery still sent him to the hospital for a CT scan. If I were to knock my head, I wouldn't receive this treatment."
Avery glared at Mike.
Mike coughed and took his phone out. "I'll call Tammy and see if she wants to come over.”
Avery said, "Elliot is here. She wouldn't want to come."
Mike asked, "Why? Because Elliot knows her ex-husband? But you know her ex-husband too?"
Avery said, "Elliot and Jun are not just acquaintances. They are close. Tammy is strong-headed, she would not want to let Elliot see her being sad." "So, what if Elliot sees her being sad? Let's take a step back, so what if Jun sees her
being sad?" Mike shrugged. "I don't know whether she is hungover or not. I'll go pick her up."
