Chapter 206 At 5 a.m. the next morning, Elliot‘s phone vibrated. He had received a text message.

It was not until two hours later that he woke up and saw the message from Chad.

(Sir, according to Mike, he‘s an expert hacker.)

(He‘s gay.)

(I‘d like to take the day off, Sir.)

Elliot‘s brows furrowed as he read the three messages.

How did Chad manage to find out this much crucial information in the span of a night?

Mike was not someone who was easy to deal with.

He would not simply reveal personal details to a stranger for no reason.

At that thought, Elliot dialed Chad‘s number.

“Chad, how did you get all that information from Mike?”

Chad remained silent for two seconds, then said with a hint of exhaustion in his voice, “I was drinking

with him last night. He told me after a few drinks.”

“That‘s it?”

“Yes. Also, I had too much to drink, so I‘d like to take the day off.”

“Okay. Stay home and get some rest.”

Chad‘s eyes were red at the end of the phone call.

No one would believe what happened to him the night before.

He had no plans to talk about it, anyway.

It was too humiliating.

At eight in the morning at Starry River Villa, Avery was getting ready to take the children to school.

“Didn‘t Uncle Mike come home last night, Mommy?” Layla asked with her backpack on her back and a

curious expression on her face. “I checked his room and he wasn’t there!”

Avery had called Mike at 11 p.m. the night before.

I hope

He had told her he was out drinking.

When she called again at midnight, he had not answered her call.

“He probably had too much to drink and ended up staying at a hotel,” Avery answered. “Don’t worry

about him. He‘ll be fine.”

Mike had always had an entertaining nightlife, so it was normal for him to be out all night.

“Oh. Will you and Uncle Mike get married, Mommy?” Layla pried nosily. “I won’t be mad if you and

Uncle Mike got together.”

Avery found her daughter‘s words both laughable and infuriating.

“Mommy would never get together with Uncle Mike. Stop imagining things.”

“Hayden and I really like Uncle Mike, though.”

“I know you like him, and I will be friends with him forever,” Avery said, then led the children out the

front door, where their eyes landed on the black Rolls–Roice out front.

Elliot was standing by the car outside the gates, and his gaze was fixed on Avery and the children.

The expression on their faces instantly changed.

It was only eight in the morning, so what was Elliot doing at their front gate?

When did he get here?

Why did he come?

Avery felt the blood rise inside of her. Avery felt as if weights had been attached to her feet, and she

could not move.

From the living room, Laura noticed the three standing still outside and walked out to check on them.

“What‘s wrong, Avery?” Laura asked as she walked out to the front yard.

When she noticed Elliot outside the gates, Laura immediately began to charge at him.

Avery ran after her and caught up to her.

“Take the kids to school, Mom!”

Worried that her mother would start a fight with Elliot, Avery quickly grabbed onto Laura’s

arm.

“I forgot to tell you that he came by last night. Now he‘s here again… What’s he doing hanging

around like this?” Laura‘s face was flushed with anger.
