"Sure." Avery hung up and felt extremely energetic.
There was only twenty percent of battery left for her phone, so she got out of bed to search for the charging cable. Once she
charged her phone, she stepped out of her room.
It was quiet in the mansion and when she walked past Layla's room, she took a glance inside.
Layla heard footsteps and turned around immediately. When she saw that it was Avery, she immediately explained what happened
earlier, "Mom, | made Robert cry because he keeps badgeringto play with him."
Avery walked into the room with a smile. "I know. | don't blyou for it."
"I know you won't," Layla said smugly. "Robert said that you and Dad were talking inside the room. What were you talking about?"
Avery pursed her lips in embarrassment for a few moments, before clearing her throat. "It's New Year's soon, so we were debating

holidays for New Year's."
"Oh... | see! But why did you have to close the door if that's what you are discussing? Robert crunning tobecause you
closed the door."
Avery scratched her head. "We were kind of arguing because your dad wants us all to go to Bridgedale. | think that's too much of a
hassle, mainly because Robert is too young and hasn't traveled that far before. | think Hayden should take leave and chome.
Your dad said that Hayden has already taken leave to chlast time, and asking him to take leaves again might affect his
studies..."
"Oh... What's there to argue about?" Layla said in confusion. "Don't you think it's silly to argue about things like that? Why don't
you just ask Hayden what he wants."
"Yeah, we plan on doing so."
"Mom, | think | used to be quite smart, right? Everything seems so easy back then, but everything at school feels so difficult now!"
Layla sighed. "I don't know if | can get first place again."
Avery picked up her homework to read it through. "Layla, we don't expect you to be the best, as long as you don't end up in last
place. Of course, we would be overjoyed if there's improvement in your academic achievement. With every year, the content that
you have to learn gets harder. The things you are learning right now are much harder than what we learnt as a child."
"| feel like I'm improving bit by bit, but so are my classmates. If | knew making progress is that hard, | should have never
abandoned my studies on purpose before."
"Don’t feel guilty, Layla. There's no hurry. As long as you've tried your best, we don't blyou, no matter what the results might
be," Avery consoled her. "Just give it your best and | will still take you out to play during the holidays, no matter which place you
are in."

Layla had been waiting for her mother to say that. "Mom, | will study hard."
Two hours later, the two children finally went to bed and Elliot and Avery returned to their room.
"Avery..."
"I'm so tired, Elliot. Let's go take a shower! Do you want to go first?" After a whole day of work, Avery could not quite relax at night
as well. Her two children preferred to cling onto them even when there were servants there to help take care of them.
"Let's shower together!" Elliot, too, felt drained.
Every the looked after Robert, Robert would cling onto him like a monkey to a tree, and Elliot realized that Robert did not do
the sto Layla or Avery.
"Sure! There's something | want to ask you about, anyway." Avery went to the closet to take out their pajamas.
