Chapter 516 Avery’s tone was ambiguous, but Elliot understood the deeper meaning behind her words.

She was telling him not to get any ideas about Hayden and Layla. It did not matter whether or not they were twins,

neither did it matter if Hayden was his son or not. The only child that belonged to him was the one she was

carrying.

In the past, Elliot’s bad temper would erupt by now, but his emotions were more stable now than they were before,

and it was better than nothing.

Avery finished applying the medication on his wound, then picked up the gauze and roll of bandages she planned on

wrapping his hand up35 with.

“Just stick a simple bandage on it,” Elliot said. He thought that using the gauze would be taking things too far.

People might end up thinking he was suffering from a much more severe injury.

Avery ignored his request and immediately began to wrap his hand up with thee8 gauze.

“Keep the wound dry for the next couple of days,” she instructed.

“How would I take a shower, then?’ Elliot79 asked.

“Is this the first time you’ve gotten hurt?”

Avery raised her brows. She wanted to mock him, but lost the confidence to do so as she remembered that her

daughter was responsible for Elliot’s87 wound.

“If you can’t take a shower with one hand and don’t want any help from others, then just use a water-resistant

glove,” she said.

Elliot stared at his solidly bandaged hand, then said casually, “When can we find out if the baby’s a boy or a7a girl?”

“We’ll know once it’s born, right?” Avery said.

She put the medication and bandages away, then walked to the door and said, “It’s not like we can change anything

even if we find out sooner.”

“I hope it’s a girl,” Elliot said as if he was making a wish and sauntered over to her. “Just like Layla.”

“Life has a tendency of giving you the exact opposite of what you wish too hard for,” Avery irked him deliberately.

“It could be a boy.”

The faint light in Ellliot’s eyes vanished.

It was obvious that he truly wanted a daughter, and was not too fond of the idea of having a son. It was no wonder

he was able to act so violently toward Hayden in the past.

If it were not Hayden, but Layla who had provoked him back then, perhaps the ending would have been different

Chad arrived forty minutes later.

Since Elliot’s hand was hurt, Mike could not count on him to cook and called Chad to come over to help.

Avery thought that Mike had only called Chad over. However, Tammy, Jun, Ben, Wesley and Shea all showed up not

long after.

She did not tell anybody that Elliot was cooking at her home that day.

It was because she had no confidence in his culinary skills at all. What if he ended up blowing the kitchen up?

Thus, she decided it was not a matter she wanted to publicize.

However, Mike went ahead and invited all these people over to watch the show.

“Whoa! Why are you making dinner so early, Mr. President?” Tammy said as she approached Elliot with a cheeky

grin. She saw his bandaged hand, then gleefully teased, “The stove isn’t even turned on yet, but you’re hurt

already? Could this be some kind of mysterious ritual? Did you use your blood to appease the Kitchen Gods?”

Elliot was unfazed by her mockery.

“Don’t come in here and affect my performance.”

“How do you expect to perform with your hand like that? Even if you stay back and help clean up, you’d just get in

the way! Ha!” Tammy’s hearty laughter echoed through the entire villa.

Avery could not listen to this for another second and dragged Tammy out of the kitchen.

Elliot insisted on cooking for her and the children. She could not convince him otherwise, and ended up leaving him

be.

Chad was around to help anyway, so it should not be too much trouble.

“How could you not tell me about such big news, Avery? If you ever remarry him, am I only going to find out about

it once the marriage license is already out?” Tammy said disappointedly.

“He just came over to cook. Don’t make it out to be anything more,” Avery said as she peeled a tangerine and

passed it to Tammy.

“Hmph! Don’t think you can settle this with a measly tangerine. You should at least tell me what happened between

the both of you in Zirconia. Even the couple in the TV drama I’m watching aren’t progressing as quickly as you

two!” Tammy sulked as she ate the tangerine.

Realizing she could not escape Tammy’s interrogation, Avery had no choice but to lightly and briefly describe the

events that occurred at Zirconia.
