Chapter 1557
Elliot took back the phone, “I don’t dare to tell Avery about this. I want to wait.”
“Wait for what?” Ben Schaffer was a little drunk, but suddenly sober.
Elliot said, “Wait until this child grows up a bit, and see if her appearance will change.How could Rebecca’s and I’s child grow up to look like Layla?”
“Yes! I’m also wondering. How similar Layla and Avery look, anyone with eyes can see at a glance. You and Rebecca’s daughter may be like you, maybe Rebecca but it’s impossible to look like Avery.” When it comes to excitement, Ben Schaffer can’t help but slap the table.
Elliot confessed, “Don’t tell Avery about this. Don’t tell anyone. I promised Avery that I would never go to Yonroeville again, nor would I take the initiative to contact Rebecca. If I keep my promise, Then I shouldn’t even mention Rebecca and that child.” The more Elliot drank, the more sober he became.
Every time he thinks of the child like Layla, he feels very distressed.
“Don’t worry, I’ll be tight-lipped.” Ben Schaffer put the bottle aside and poured a glass of warm water and said, “Suddenly I don’t want to drink anymore.”
Elliot: “Why?”
Ben Schaffer said helplessly, “If I’m drunk, who will comfort you? And I’m drunk, how can I go back later? Besides, I look at you, I’m afraid I’m drinking too much. Maybe I’ll call Avery later and ask her to pick you up.”
Elliot Immediately put down the glass: “She should be sleeping. We got off the plane today and went to Xander’s house. She didn’t sleep on the plane.”
Ben: “If I were her, I would feel very guilty.”
Elliot: “Xander’s parents didn’t blame her.”
Of course you can’t blame her. Who knows what happened to Xander’s death.” Ben Schaffer quickly turned the topic back to the child, “You said just now that you can’t go to Yonroeville in the future, then what about when Rebecca gave birth?”
Elliot didn’t answer his question, just glanced at him. “Well, I can’t go, Avery will definitely be angry if I go.”
