NovelOnlineLayla did not want to continue the subject because her head had started to hurt.
"Hayden, takeand Robert out shopping after dinner," she requested.
"Sure. Think about what you want, and tell Robert to do the same. I'm going to eat." Hayden brushed her off just as she had done with Robert.
In the hospital, Avery finally saw Elliot.
It was not until he saw Avery's eyes behind the protective goggles that he felt that he was truly alive.
"Elliot, you are finally awake. I'm so glad that you woke up!" she sobbed. "Do you know how upset | was to find out that you did such a thing behind
my back?"

"Miss Tate, Mr. Foster has just woken up. Try not to scare him into a coma," the nurse reminded her.
Avery bit her tongue at the nurse's reminder.
"Can we move Mr. Foster to the normal room?" the nurse asked.
Avery checked on all the data and nodded.
Elliot had been in ICU for almost a week, and his wounds from the surgery had been during the the was unconscious. Though he was still frail,
his life was in no danger.
Once he was transferred to the normal ward, Avery called both Wesley and Elliot's doctor and told them the good news. She called Mrs. Cooper as
well.
Mrs. Cooper burst into tears. "I knew that Mr. Foster would be alright! Have you told Hayden and Layla? The three of them went out after dinner."
"What are they doing out this late at night?" Avery had thought that the children were at home.
"Hayden didn't buy any gifts for Layla and Robert this time. The two wanted gifts so they dragged Hayden out shopping," Mrs. Cooper explained.
"Don't worry. The bodyguard is with them so they will be fine."
"Yeah. It's just kind of cold outside.” Avery was concerned that they would catch a cold, especially Robert. Though Robert seemed healthy, he fell ill
frequently. Perhaps it was because he had been born prematurely. Even when they raised him with caution, Robert was still frailer than others his
age.
"I didn't want him to go outside either, but he insisted on going out with his siblings. | wanted to go with them, but he didn't wantto." Mrs. Cooper
chuckled with resignation. "He was kind of wary about Hayden at first, and he's now clinging to his big brother.”
Avery could imagine the sight. "They are siblings, after all. They are bonded by blood. If they are already out, let them have fun!"

After the call, Avery did not call Hayden.
Elliot was still quite frail and had closed his eyes to rest without saying a word after waking up.
By the tWesley and Elliot's doctor arrived, he had fallen asleep again.
"He stared atfor half an hour and just closed his eyes right before you came," Avery said.
"Did he mention feeling any discomfort?" the doctor asked.
"He didn't say anything. | think he's still dazed, but he probably remembers everything. He just stayed quiet because he didn't wantto yell at him."
"Hahaha! Miss Tate, now that he's woken up, let's refrain from yelling at him. Had he not risked everything, we wouldn't know that everything Angela
said was a lie."
