She did not eat much in the morning.
Avery often felt drowsy after eating, so she purposefully starved to keep a leveled head.
"Have you all eaten?" Avery asked.
"We did. It's past one now," he said. "Layla, take Eric's parents to rest! The hospital will notify us when he wakes up."
Mr. and Mrs. Santos wanted to wait in the hospital, because the doctor had mentioned that Eric would regain consciousness within
twenty-four hours.
"You shouldn't wait here. It's packed with people here. Let's wait at home!" Layla said. "We can all have a nap and maybe he will be
awake when we are."
The two were convinced as they knew that Layla wanted Eric to wake up just as much as they did. They knew that Eric's health
would not beparable to before the accident, so they hoped that there would be someone to take care of Eric in the future as

Elliot took Avery to the canteen in the hospital and ate with her as he did not have too much to eat one hour ago.
"Do you think we will be able to make it back before New Year?" He asked.
"Not sure. It depends on Eric's condition. If he has a smooth recovery, we should all be able to head back." Avery took two bites of
her food and felt the rumbling of her stomach easing.
She picked up a glass and took a sip of water. "Missing home?"
"Robert took Ivy to my office," Elliot said. "I wonder what was on their mind."
Avery chuckled. "They snuck in?"
"Yeah, but they were discovered almost right away. Most of my employees know Robert." Elliot took a sip of water. "The kids didn't
tellabout it, so | didn't ask."
"Maybe they just happened to be in the area and went in for a tour. Ivy isn't that bold, so she was probably brought in by Robert,"
Avery said.
"Ivy doesn't want others to know who she is, so she can't get in on her own. I'm guessing that Robert wants to set Ivy up to work in
mypany once she graduates. That way, he will be free."
"It wouldn't be so bad if Ivy is okay with it!" Avery meant to say that it did not matter if Robert wanted to remain by their sides and
if Ivy was willing to take his place, it would be just as ideal.
Most importantly, Avery did not think that Robert was as ambitious as Hayden, so he would not travel far even if he did not plan on
working at Sterling Group.
"lvy is still young. Let's wait until she graduates. | don't want to pressure her into anything," he said endearingly.
Avery giggled. "Indeed. Don't pressure yourself either. Health is most important and we should consider ourselves lucky that we
are all alive and well."

After their meal, Elliot proposed to take a stroll outside.
It was rather chilling outside, but they had both worn thick layers of jackets.
"I didn't think that you woulde." Avert took his hand and the two walked down the path around the river.
The breeze was cold, but they both felt warm having just eaten.
"Why not? It's been a long tsince we are separated for such a long period." He tightened his grip on her hand. "| told the kids
that | miss you."
Eric was in good hands with the doctors and the nurses, so Elliot was not at all concerned about Eric.
Avery blushed. "Don't you feel shy?"
"Why should | be? All our kids have grown up. | think they should all see how beautiful a marriage is, or they will all stay single and
grow old alone, and we won't have any grandchild."
