It’s not that he’s addicted to smoking, but the waiting process was really boring.
Ben Schaffer really wanted to call Elyette to chat. Even if he doesn’t talk about Averie, he can talk about something else. But he was afraid of disturbing Elyette’s rest.
–After Elyette divorced Averie, he not only had to be busy with his work, but also took care of the emotions of his two children.
–Outsiders can’t help with these things.
After thinking about it for a while, Ben Schaffer still called Elyette–
–The user you dialed is on a call, please try again later.
Who is Elyette talking to on the phone so late?
Ben Schaffer put down his phone and lit another cigarette.
When Elyette finishes talking on the phone, he should call him back.
He actually knew very well that when he got on the phone with Elyette later, he would definitely not help mentioning Averie.
Although Averie refused to see him, he imagined her current situation and felt particularly uncomfortable.
He can still have such compassion for Averie, how could Elyette not have it at all? He remembered that when Averie happened something trivial, Elyette could change his face in a hurry. How could the love between them disappear?
About half an hour later, Elyette called.
Ben Schaffer put out the cigarette between his fingers in the ashtray.
“Elyette, who are you talking on the phone with!”
“Norah Jones.” Elyette picked up the water glass and took a sip. “She doesn’t understand my rules. I have told her not to call me after 9 o’clock in the future.”
Norah Jones was the new vice president of Tate Industries. She not only had excellent management experience, but also a proud highly educated.
“Did she fight so hard? Or is she trying to take you down because of your free window?” Ben Schaffer teased.
“We didn’t talk about anything other than work.” Elyette frowned and put down the water glass.
“She wants to gain your trust first. When she gets to know you better, she will talk to you about other things.” Ben Schaffer was afraid that Elyette would be taken advantage of, so he reminded him, “You need someone to comfort you right now. You have to stay awake and don’t be so easily bewitched.”
Elyette felt that Ben Schaffer had been single for too long and his thinking was wrong.
Not to mention that he doesn’t have the energy to take care of personal relationship issues now, even if he has the energy, he can’t find a woman to fall in love with again.
Averie broke his heart.
Elyette didn’t want to talk nonsense with Ben Schaffer anymore, so he hung up the phone.
Seeing that it was 11 o’clock at night, he rubbed his aching temples and turned off his phone.
Norah Jones made a detailed work plan tonight and was very satisfied, so she called him and reported to him.
This report was more than an hour.
Norah Jones’s ambition was to make Tate Industries’s brand of drones the world’s No. 1, so that AN Technology had no place to stand!
When Averie listened to Norah Jones’s report, her face appeared in her mind countless times.
Elyette didn’t want to destroy Averie’s AN technology. But he seems to be doing it.
He hired Norah Jones and acquiesced to Norah Jones to set such a huge goal.
Regardless of whether Norah Jones can accomplish this goal or not, Averie must have known about it by now.
The funny thing is that even if Averie knew about it, she didn’t come to him.
Seeing that the phone was hung up, Ben Schaffer dialed his number again without thinking.
But came the system prompt tone that his phone had been turned off.
“What are you doing?” Ben Schaffer looked at the call that was automatically hung up by the system, and he said himself “I haven’t said a word of what I wanted to say! If I knew it earlier, I would n’t mention Norah Jones.”
Ben Schaffer was very tight in his chest, so he came out of the cafe.
He walked to the door of the hospital and called Gwen.
In the ward, Averie heard that Gwen had answered Ben Schaffer’s call, and immediately said to Gwen, “Gwen, go accompany him! I just happened to be a little sleepy and I was going to sleep.”
Gwen knew Averie was lying. She had just finished the operation, and soon the effects of the anesthesia would wear off.
It was so painful, how could she sleep.
“Gwen, let’s go! When she falls asleep, I’ll squint for a while.” Mike also opened his mouth.
“Okay! Then I’ll go first. I’ll come to see you at night.” Gwen left the ward.
Mike went to the hospital bed and tucked the quilt for Averie.
“Mike, I’m not cold.” It’s summer, and despite the air conditioning in the ward, she’s still a little hot.
Mike pulled the quilt down a little.
“After a week, your eyes will gradually be able to see things… Looking forward to it?” Mike said this sentence, his tone could not hide his excitement.
The corners of Averie’s mouth rose: “I look forward to it, I hope everything goes well.”
Mike: “It will definitely be. The doctor said that your illness is not a serious one.”
“I know.” Averie always knew that her illness was not serious, but It will affect daily life. “I feel much better now.”
“Well, the professor I told you before, I called and contacted him. He heard that you had surgery today, so he planned to come and visit you at night. I know You really wanted to talk to that professor about Hayden, so I agreed.” Mike said.
Averie hesitated for a moment, then responded.
…
Gwen came out of the inpatient department and saw Ben Schaffer who was waiting at the entrance of the inpatient department.
“Didn’t I tell you not to come to the hospital?” Gwen complained.
“I didn’t go in. I was calling you from outside the hospital gate. I heard Averie asked you to come with me, so I walked in.” Ben Schaffer heard Averie’s voice just now, and his heart was very complicated.
Her voice was as soft and quiet as ever.
The blow of divorce, the blow of illness, did not seem to break her down.
“It’s all because you called me. If you don’t call me, she won’t drive me away.” Gwen glared at Ben, and said, “If something happens, just send me a message.”
“I called your second brother, and he hung up on me. Not only did he hang up my phone, but he also turned off the phone. So I was very annoyed.” Ben Schaffer explained to her, “I originally wanted to tell him about Averie’s surgery today, But after we got through the phone, we talked about another woman, so we’re done.”
“Another woman?” Gwen wondered.
“The new vice president of Tate Industries is a very capable woman. This woman is not only capable, but also quite young.” Ben Schaffer said in a sour tone, “I have to obey, there are some young people nowadays who are getting more and more incredible.”
“How old is she?”
“33 years old.”
“Oh…isn’t this older than Averie? To me, this woman is an old sister.” Because Gwen resented this woman, So the tone is very rude.
“Haha…” Ben Schaffer laughed.
Gwen: “Why are you laughing! What are you talking about with Elyette about this woman?”
“She called your second brother for more than an hour. It’s late at night in Aryadelle.” Ben Schaffer asked her, “A woman called a man late at night to report. Do you think she is really dedicated to her work, or does she have other intentions?”
“There must be intentions. She wants to hook up with Elyette, it’s obvious.” Gwen said and added, “Although I haven’t seen but I really hope the two of them are together. In this way, Averie can be completely freed!”
Ben Schaffer: “…”
In the evening.
A senior professor from the School of Mechanical Engineering brought Hayden to the hospital to visit Averie.
After the professor and Averie greeted politely, Mike immediately took Hayden out of the ward.
After the door of the ward was closed, Averie said to the professor, “I don’t know why you chose my son.”
