Although they did not have any obvious conflicts at the moment, in the past, they could
take any single matter and fight for three days non-stop!
However, after seeing Elliot, Avery calmed down. He was not there to fight with her. Perhaps the
children were there, so they were not like before, losing their temper at any moment.
In the nanny’s room, Elliot finished his shower and walked to the bed to sit.
He picked up his phone and saw a message from Chad. It was a message regarding the hotel.
[Mr. Foster, I’ve booked you into a hotel closest to Avery’s house. The hotel provides transportation too.
It takes less than 10 minutes to and fro. It won’t take up much of your time with the kids.]
Chad could not accept that Elliot would be treated this way!
It was fine if Avery did not love him, but could she not torture him?
Elliot replied, [I’m staying at her place. Cancel the booking.]
[Didn’t she put you in the nanny’s room? Why doesn’t she let the nanny stay there? It must be small,
right? How could you possibly stay there?]
Chad’s reaction made Elliot feel as if he was being arranged by Avery to stay in a dog cage.
Although the nanny’s room was a little small, the bed was at least one and a half meters. To Elliot, as
long as he could sleep, that would be enough.
He was there to see Avery and the children, not on a holiday.
Elliot did not want to explain much. He merely replied, [I’m going to bed.]
Then, he put his phone down. What was strange was that he had already slept on the plane, but when
he lay down in bed, he soon fell asleep.He even forgot to take his medication.
Usually, when he was home, if he did not take his medication, he would surely lose sleep.
Did that mean that Avery was much more effective than medication?
The next morning, after Avery got up, she immediately went to look for Layla to ask her to be quiet.
Elliot had sat a more than ten-hour flight over. On top of that, he needed to adjust to the time
difference. Avery wanted to let him sleep in longer.
Just when she was combing Layla’s hair, Mrs. Cooper hurriedly rushed in.
“Avery, Mr. Foster knocked his head on the wall! He has a huge bump on his head! Go help him deal
with it, please!”
Mrs. Cooper blamed herself very much.
She initially brought Robert to Elliot’s room to show him. When she knocked on the door, Elliot knocked
himself against the wall because he was too anxious to open the door.
At that time, he was washing up in the toilet. He knocked on the wall when he came out of the
washroom. Mrs, Cooper heard a loud sound from outside the door!
Avery never thought that the thing she worried about the night before would happen so fast.
She immediately went to take her medical suitcase rushed over to Elliot’s room.
Elliot was sitting by the bed, clutching his head with one hand. His face seemed peaceful enough.
When his eyes met with Avery, he avoided her a little, because he felt a little embarrassed. Not only did
she have to care for the children, but now she had to care for him too.
“Let me have a look.” Avery walked to him and placed her medical suitcase on the bed, opening it up.
Elliot hesitated for two seconds before moving his hand away. He explained, “I’m not bleeding. It’s not
that painful anymore.”
“Don’t think that just because you’re not bleeding it’s not serious. There are bruises on your head,
which means you knocked too hard. We’ll go do a CT scan at the hospital later.”
Elliot lifted his head and looked at her. “I’m sure that’s not necessary?”
Avery lowered her gaze. “I’m the doctor, listen to me.”
‘Elliot instantly lost all bravado. Not only was she the doctor, but he was also at her place.
“You’ll sleep in my room tonight,” Avery said in a commanding tone while disinfecting his wound with a
disinfectant.
