"Why do you seem a little unhappy about that?" Elliot asked with a smile. "Hayden is still on your side!"

"I'm not unhappy. Wouldn't | be less worried if you had a good relationship with the children? When they have holidays, you can be

the one who takes care of them, while | just do nothing but comment on all of you." Avery could not help but smile. "Since you like

to take care of the children so much, | will have to give you an award at the end of the year. Award of The Best Daddy!"

"Thank you! | don't need the award. The children are mine. Caring for them is my responsibility and obligation." Elliot looked

relaxed. "The children also won't need us for much longer. Hayden doesn't need us at all anymore. We need him, in fact. Layla also

doesn't need us that much. If we weren't so strict with her, don't you think that she would run out and play the moment she had a

holiday? Didn't she keep asking for Eric to stay at our place to play with her during our honeymoon? If it weren't for her final

exams, don't you think that she would ask Eric to take her out to play?"

Avery had not thought about this, but when she heard what Elliot said, she was suddenly flustered.

"Only Robert treats us like we're precious right now. If Layla had tto be with him, he wouldn't play with us either," Elliot

continued. "The children grow up quickly. In a few years, he is going to elementary school. He will have his friends, and he won't

stick to us anymore."

"Why are you getting sentimental? Do you really like to take care of the children?" Avery teased. "Didn't you also move out of your

parents' house when you grew up? Why did you expect the children to always stick to us?"

Elliot was at a loss for words.

"There's still a long way to go before they move out! Don't think too much!" Avery noticed how sad Elliot truly was, so she

comforted him seriously: "If they really do move out in the future, we could travel the world!"

Elliot responded, "Let's think about this in the future! We're not there yet."

"Right now, they are still with us... but you're already so sad. If Layla were to get married in the future, would you cry terribly on

her wedding day?" Avery hugged his waist and looked at him. "Honey, you still have me! | won't leave you."

"Hmm... Luckily, there's still you. If not, | would be so lonely when I'm old."

"Hahaha! You're also afraid of loneliness! | thought that, with your terrible temper, you liked to be alone!"

Elliot was speechless.

They bickered all the way home. They only stopped when they reached the house.

Dinner was already made by the tthey arrived. Layla was doing her homework in her room, while Robert was sticking to Elliot,

asking Elliot to teach him chess.

"The next tHayden returns, | can play with him!" Robert said, explaining why he wanted to learn chess.

Elliot was moved by Robert's sincerity, so he allowed his son to lure him away to teach him chess.

Avery was hungry, so she did not wait for them and instead went to the dining hall.

"Layla said she's not hungry, and she'll have her meal after doing her homework, so you don't have to deal with anyone tonight."

Mrs. Cooper served her dinner. "Avery, how was work today?"

"Hmm... It's alright. It's quite fulfilling, even if | don't do much. But | get much hungrier there compared to when I'm at home."

Avery picked up her eating utensils and began to eat.

"It must be tiring to work. Even if you don't do much, you think more at work," Mrs. Cooper said. "Have more food. You're already

so skinny. Don't lose even more weight because you've started working."

"I ate quite a lot this afternoon, too. | definitely won't be losing any weight. | might even get fatter during work." Avery had stopped

caring so much about her body in the last few years because she did not gain weight easily. She had good eating habits. She did

not often like to snack. She did not like to binge eat either, so her weight had been stable.

"Mrs. Cooper, the past two days, when Eric was staying over... did Layla bother him a lot?" Avery asked quietly, the question

coming to her in a sudden flash.

Mrs. Cooper was stunned for a moment before she replied, "I don't think so. | never saw Layla bothering Eric. Layla's not a

botherschild! She's very mature now."
