“Listen to you. You can live wherever you arrange for her.” Elyette compromised, looking at her clear eyes with deep eyes. After hesitating again and again, he said again, “I just…”
“Averie, come and see if the dumplings are cooked.” Adrian sound came from the kitchen.
Averie immediately got up from the sofa and strode towards the kitchen.
Elyette got up very early today and was very sleepy now. He walked to the kitchen and said to Averie, “Averie, I’ll go back to the room to wash first.”
“Okay! Go!” Averie was holding a bowl, and in the bowl was a steaming dumpling, in the sweltering heat Under the steam, her eyes gleamed faintly.
After Elyette returned to the room, Averie and Adrian filled dumplings and went to the living room to eat while watching TV.
20 minutes later, the two finished eating dumplings.
Averie took the bowl into the dishwasher and came out of the kitchen.
Averie: “Adrian, go back to your room to sleep. I’m going to bed too. It’s very late now.”
Adrian scratched his head: “I want to wait for the New Year’s Eve.”
Averie glanced at the time, and it was just over an hour before the New Year.
“I’ll wait for New Year’s Eve with you.” Averie sat down beside him, “Actually, I’m not that sleepy.”
A sketch was playing on the TV.
In order to make herself not so sleepy, she took a serious look.
After some time, Averie’s phone screen lit up.
She picked up her phone and saw that it was 11 o’clock at night. Elyette should have fallen asleep.
She clicked on the message from the unfamiliar number, and saw a candid photo.
In the photo, Rebecca has a big belly, holding Elyette’s arm, and was about to enter the elevator.
In the photo, Elyette was wearing the new coat he wore today.
–He said he was going to see a friend, but it turned out to be Rebecca.
–The faint scent of perfume on his body naturally came from Rebecca.
–Didn’t he say he’d never meet Rebecca again?
–No, what he promised was that he would never go to Yonroeville again.
–He didn’t say that Rebecca came to Aryadelle to see her.
[Miss Tate, we photographed your husband having a tryst with a woman with a big belly for nearly an hour tonight. If you don’t want this news to be in the headlines, then you need to pay a buyout fee. I still have a lot of these photos in my hand, and if I release any of them, it will definitely make it impossible for your family to celebrate the New Year.]
Averie read the text message sent by the other party, and her heart sank into a cold pool.
She wanted to say, let the photos go out, because it wasn’t her who was secretly photographed anyway.
But thinking about how big this incident would affect the child, she could only endure her unhappiness and sent a message to ask: [How much do you want?]
The other party immediately replied: [Five million. This number is not much for you, is it? As long as you call the money tonight, I promise to destroy all the photos.]
Averie looked at the word ‘Five million’ and thought it was ridiculous.
–Is the photo of Elyette and Rebecca worth so much money?
Averie wanted to grit her teeth and said to the person on the phone, go and expose it. Expose now. Not to mention that Elyette and Rebecca were photographed going to the hotel for a tryst, even if she took a picture of the two of them on the bed, she wouldn’t be afraid.
Elyette was not afraid, what was there to be afraid of.
Averie just felt disgusted, and she was afraid that the child would be disgusted.
In the end, it was still getting older, and the temperament was more calm than before, and it was more able to bear the pain that was unbearable before, or it was too much, and people were a little numb.
Averie copied the bank card number sent by the other party, opened her own bank app, and transferred five million.
After receiving the money, the other party sent a message: [Miss Tate, I didn’t expect you to be so refreshing. I didn’t expect you and your husband to be so good looking. But still, I wish you a Happy New Year]
Averie clenched the phone tightly, and the expression on her face couldn’t be concealed.
“Averie, what’s wrong with you?” Adrian asked, looking at her cold expression.
“Someone wishing me a happy new year,” Averie explained, putting the phone down, “the one I hate.”
Adrian: “Oh… the hater, just ignore it.”
“Um.” Averie took it from the table and picked up the glass and took a sip.
Time will soon come to the countdown to New Years Eve.
On the TV, the host and everyone on the scene counted down together: “Ten, nine, eight, seven…”
“Adrian, what do you wish for in the new year?” Averie looked at Adrian.
Adrian: ” I hope I can become smarter and smarter and can take care of myself.”
Averie: “You can definitely do it. I believe in you.”
“Averie, thank you. What is your wish?” Adrian asked rhetorically.
Averie thought for a moment, then the corners of her mouth rose: “I hope my three children are healthy and happy.”
“No.”
“No.”
“No one said that you can only make one wish, but you can make many.” Adrian reminded her, “You can also wish that you and your husband are also healthy…”
“If you wish too much, it won’t work.” Averie smiled and said, “The most important thing is that the child is healthy and happy.”
Adrian: “Okay! Then Am I being too greedy? My wish is so big.”
Averie: “Don’t be greedy. God has already accepted your wish. We will celebrate New Year’s Eve together at the end of the year.”
Adrian: “Okay!”
Averie returned to the bedroom and Elyette gave it to her. Left a bedside lamp.
He was fast asleep, breathing evenly and looked really tired.
Averie walked to the bed and turned off the light before she went to bed. The room suddenly fell into darkness.
She lay down on the bed with her back to Elyette.
–Elyette went out to see Rebecca, but he didn’t tell her in advance. Today is New Year’s Eve, a day to reunite with family. On such an important day, he secretly went out to meet Rebecca.
For Averie, this was a spiritual betrayal.
–If Elyette can sneak to see Rebecca once, there will be a second time, a third time…
–It’s the same thing as physical betrayal.
–Is Elyette not letting go of Rebecca or the child in Rebecca’s womb? Or, both?
–After all, if Elyette doesn’t have feelings for Rebecca, how can he have feelings for the child in Rebecca’s belly?
Suddenly a deep rift arose in her heart.
No wonder people say that after being together for a long time, it is easy to lose freshness and passion. She thought that she and Elyette would be exempt from the commonplace, but unexpectedly, they were also common people.
This was not the life Averie wants.
If she and Elyette really got to the point where they were separated from each other, she would rather not have this relationship.
She lives with her own children, and she will never have such troubles. She didn’t want to be pitied by anyone, and she didn’t want to be put on emotional shackles.
The more Averie think, the more awake her mind becomes, and the more she can’t sleep.
After an unknown amount of time, she seemed to have fallen asleep in a daze, or even had a dream. Only when she was dreaming, she knew she was dreaming.
She didn’t sleep very well, a dream started soon, then ended quickly and entered another dream.
