NovelOnline"They have a new business, and we are celebrating with cake?" Avery did not understand Mike's actions.
"If not, should we cry?" Mike opened the cake, cut a piece, and passed it to her. "Eat more and think less. I'm starting to suspect
that when I'm not home, you don't eat a proper lunch. Why do you look like you have lost sweight?"
"On the contrary. | have been making a good lunch every afternoon." Avery held the cake, picked up her fork, and started eating it.
"Lilith said that she's coming over for dinner tonight. Don't tellit's to consoletoo?" "If | knew you were this intuitive, | would
not have told you about it." Mike took the remote control and switched off the tv.
"I'm not thinking about all of this. Whether you tellor not, | know that they are building a new company." Avery pushed the
cream on the cake away. "Why did you buy a cake with cream? | prefer tiramisu."
"You have askedthis before, but I'll refresh your memory." Mike shrugged. " Layla and | like eating cake with plenty of cream.
As | was missing her, | ordered this cake."
Avery's face grew dark at the mention of Layla.

"Avery, | plan to return to Aryadelle to see Layla and Robert. What do you think?"
Mike said. "Do you want to head back with me? | promise | won't say a word about you returning."
"It's almost winter break! I'll wait for Layla to cover during winter break!” Avery only said that because she did not think she
could see her two children if she were to return to Aryadelle.
She was afraid that if she suddenly went back and secretly saw her children, and Elliot found out, it would only be a source of
further arguments.
She did not want to fight with him.
Fighting was not only a waste of their emotional energies, but it would also torment the children.
"Okay, then, I'll return to Aryadelle on my own." Mike missed Layla and Robert."
You'll be halone then. Are you sure you'll be fine?"
"I have Hayden, right?" "We don't see Hayden all day long. He can't be hto be with you either." Mike pondered =b$>XMU?
said, "Should we get Lilith to cover and stay?"
"Lilith is busier than Hayden, right?
Furthermore, Lilith and Ben are together right now. If Lilith is to stay with me, will Ben still dare look for her?"
Avery hit the nail on the head. Mike dismissed the idea.
"Just go back! Don't worry! | need to study. | plan to get a doctorate. I'll just apply to the college next to Hayden's school," said
Avery, revealing her plans. Mike was baffled.
"Is there a need for you to continue your studies?" Mike's tone informed his opinion. He thought that she was exceptional enough
already. She did not need to study just for a certificate.

"Mike, medicine is a very wide field. | only know a little about it. If | want to learn, | can spend my entire life learning and still |
won't be done," Avery said seriously. "| have already thought about it. Staying at hevery day is boring. | want to be closer to
Hayden. That way, if there is anything, we can care for each other."
Mike was speechless. Turns out, her plans to further her studies were just a facade for going to school with Hayden.
At Aryadelle, Elliot lay in bed. He found it hard to sleep. The branch of Tate Industries in Aryadelle already had its grand opening.
He wondered how Avery was feeling. She must hate him, right?
Ever since he had blocked Avery's number, his world was much more peaceful. However, that night, he started to involuntarily
think of her thinking back to everything they had gone through together. He also wondered if his targeting her this way was
crossing the line.
However, every the had this thought, he would think about how she had divorced him cruelly without a single care.
A normal person would not be so cruel, even if it was to a toy that had been with them for more than ten years.
He could not forgive her!
When it started to get brighter outside, he finally slept soundly.
