Chapter 283
Shea knew she could no longer hide it, yet she was afraid as her brother looked so serious and stern. So, she lowered her head and said nothing.
At the Starry River Villa, Mike was in the hall boasting about how great his alcohol tolerance was, and how easily he had gotten Chad drunk!
He also paraded how easy it was to lie and fool Chad.
“Avery, I’m great, right?” Mike was looking for praise. “Chad definitely reported it to his boss! Don’t worry. Elliot will not suspect you.”
Avery was peeling some apples. She passed them to him. “You finally have some brains.”
“Hey! That was uncalled for! I always have brains, please!” Mike angrily accepted the apple and took a hard bite. “I just don‘t like to think. Once I do, even Sherluck Helmes is no match for me.”
At that moment, Layla brought an album over.
“Mommy, who is this man? He‘s so handsome! I like him very much!”
Layla had come out of Avery‘s room. Avery looked at the album in Layla‘s hands. She immediately placed her knife down.
“Layla, why are you going through my things again?” Avery took the album and shut it.
Eric‘s photos were in the album. Avery was a fan of his.
“Mommy, if you didn‘t want me to see it, you should have locked it up!” Layla looked aggrieved. “Why won‘t you let me see it? I like that handsome man too!”
Hayden glanced at the album and said, “Infatuated fool.”
“Mommy likes him too! If you‘re calling me an infatuated fool, that means you‘re calling Mommy a fool too!” Layla retorted logically.
Hayden could not win, so he turned around and returned to his room.
Layla lay in Avery’s arms and said sweetly, “Mommy, if you‘re going to find a boyfriend in the future, use this handsome man as a benchmark. If you can bring such a handsome man home, Grandma and I won‘t object to it.”
Tammy never comes at night.
“Damn! Avery! Your ex-husband is here!” Mike did not dare open the door. He quickly returned to the living area. “He has even brought someone over.”
Avery furrowed her brows. Why did Elliot bring Shea over here so late at night?
She walked over to the door and opened it. Before she could say anything, Elliot asked Shea,” Is It here?”
