"No," she said, before correcting herself," He did yesterday morning, but my phone was off at the time." "Do not call him back. | told him off yesterday, and he was so pissed off that he hung up right away. If you contact him, he is bound to be really rude." "Yeah." In the afternoon, Eric arrived in Bridgedale and moved into Avery's house with his luggage right away as he was worried about the condition of her eyes.
"lI am much better now. | called Layla yesterday." Avery served him snacks and said, "I can take care of myself now." "Don't listen to her. Right now, she can only see you but not me," said Mike, who sat a little further away from Avery.
"Mike, shouldn't you be off to work by now? " Avery wanted to speak to Eric alone.
Mike sighed and got up from the couch. " Now that Eric is here, you just don't needanymore. Fine, I'll go." He went over to the porch to change his shoes and shouted, "Let's go outside for dinner later! It's been a while. | will make the reservation. How does that sound, Avery?" Avery was fine with the idea but was not certain if Eric would be. As Mike had said, Eric was famous in Bridgedale and they would have to respect his wishes if he did not wish to dine out.
"I'm fine." Noticing Avery's eyes on him, Eric immediately spoke up, "It's been stsince you went outside, right? Let's go out for dinner tonight." "Sure." After reaching an agreement, Mike headed out.

It's best that she partners with a male celebrity that has more influence.
"Eric, if you are not up for it—" "I've already said yes. Lilith will still be the ambassador. I'm just in the video with her, " Eric said in a casual tone. "l also want her to beca world-class model as soon as possible so that she can be free of that old man's control." Avery could not help but chuckle. "You are talking about Ben, huh? " "Yeah. | still remember what happened between her and Ben distinctly," Eric said sarcastically. "My first impression on Ben was not a good one to begin with because he looked older and wiser than Elliot." "You can't just declare all men his age are the same. You will grow old someday." "At least | don't toy with women the way they did. | look down on guys like them. They treat women like baby-making machines.
They have no respect for women at all." "Eric, | might have divorced Elliot, and we had indeed fought over the custody of our children, but he didn't forceto give birth.
He didn’t seeas a tool to make children," Avery argued sheepishly.
"He's just skilled that way. He made you give birth to so many children and still managed to make you feel like he didn't force you into it." "l only gave birth twice." "He forced you to give birth the second time," Eric said. "You seem to remember only the times when he treated you well and choose to neglect the times he didn't."
