Chapter 846 By the time Avery walked her way back home, it was already evening. The weather was not great today, and it had turned dark outside earlier. Mrs. Cooper was shocked to see her drenched and in a daze. “What happened, Avery?” Mrs. Cooper held Avery’s hand. “Did you not want Master Elliot to leave? Don’t be like that. You can go back to Aryadelle whenever you want, right?” Avery shook her head, then croaked, “Where are the kids?” “Robert is sleeping. Layla and Hayden are taking a shower. They were making a snowman in the front yard earlier and got soaked,” said Mrs. Cooper. “You’re drenched, Avery. Go and take a hot shower. Do you need my help?” Avery shook her head, then turned away and headed toward the bedroom.
Mrs. Cooper was worried and followed behind her.
“By the way, don’t mention Elliot Foster in front of the children ever again.” Avery stopped in her tracks, then turned to Mrs. Cooper and continued, “We broke up. You and Mrs. Scarlet work for him…”
She could not bring herself to continue the rest of her sentence.
She wanted to send Mrs. Cooper and Mrs. Scarlet back to Elliot.
Since they were broken up, she could not continue to keep them by her side. Mrs. Cooper’s face turned pale as she could not accept what she just heard. “This is too sudden, Avery! I… I don’t know what to say, but I want to stay here and take care of Robert.”
“You work for him, though. From now on, I won’t have anything to do with him. I like you, but I don’t want to continue to have any connection to him because of you,” Avery said,
revealing her thoughts.
Mrs. Cooper’s eyes filled with tears. She did not know what to do.
At this moment, Mrs. Scarlet walked over and said to Avery, “I don’t know what happened between the two of you, Avery. It’s regretful, but I’ve spent my whole life working as a nanny for the Fosters. I will be leavinged tomorrow.”
Avery nodded, then turned to Mrs. Cooper and said, “You should go with Mrs. Scarlet.”
Mrs. Cooper could no longer handle the reality at hand and walked away inie tears.
“She’s developed a liking for Robert, Avery. You should let her make her own choices. If she’s willing to stay behind and take care of Robert, then she can quit working for the Fosters and work for you instead,” said Mrs. Scarlet. “She’s been working for the Fosters all these years. I don’t want to trouble94 her.”
“Are things between you and Master Elliot truly over?” Mrs. Scarlet could not understand how they were both just fine yesterday but are now broken up out of nowhere.
Avery’s lashes fluttered as she said, “He’s going to marry Chelsea Tierney. Do you think there’s anything left to18 redeem?” Mrs. Scarlet took a step back. She was so shocked that she could not say a word.
That night, Avery tossed and turned ind3 bed.
As the clock ticked away, her body temperature slowly rose.
Her mouth felt dry and she was very thirsty. When she threw back the covers and sat up, her head started spinning. She immediately realized that she had acb fever.
The next morning, Mrs. Cooper gave Elliot a call after careful consideration. At that moment, Elliot had just gotten off the plane. “Master Elliot, Avery said you’re going to marry Chelsea Tierney, so she could not keep Mrs. Scarlet and me by her side.” Mrs. Cooper had spent the whole night thinking about her final decision. “I don’t think you’d do something like that, but Avery wouldn’t lie to me. Mrs. Scarlet will be returning to Aryadelle today, but I won’t be going with her.”
Elliot grunted in response.
“Robert is still a baby. I’d like to stay by Avery’s side and take care of Robert. No matter what happens between you and Avery, Robert is still your child. I’ll stay with Avery to repay all the years that you took care of me.”
“Alright,” Elliot said. After she hung up the phone, Mrs. Cooper headed to Avery’s room.
