She was like a fireball, blazing brightly.
After the bodyguard brought the medicine and the nurse gave Layla an injection, Elyette’s tense heart relaxed.
This was the first time in his memory that Layla had a high fever.
Before Averie was there, the child was by her side, and she was well taken care of. Even if there was a minor illness or pain, she could help the child heal without going to the hospital.
Now as soon as Averie left, the child was sick, as if it was God’s punishment for Elyette.
After about half an hour, Layla started to sweat like crazy.
Her hair was wet and her clothes were soaking wet.
Elyette went out in a hurry and did not bring clean clothes and tissues for the child.
After a while, Layla’s fever subsided, and she was a little cold from sweating too much.
It’s four in the morning.
Elyette asked the bodyguard to buy tissues and water nearby.
After Layla’s fever subsided, she fell asleep peacefully in his arms.
Although the daughter is not noisy now, her brows are still wrinkled.
Elyette was very afraid, if his daughter woke up and found that he had not contacted Averie, and found that she still had to stay by his side, would she continue to make trouble.
–Can her body stand up to such a commotion?
Elyette held his daughter in one hand, opened his mobile phone with the other, and sent Averie a message: Averie, Layla has a fever. Just took a temperature of 40.5 degrees. I didn’t take good care of her. Maybe she’s following you. She already has her own thoughts and opinions, and she needs you and Hayden. Averie, can you not be so cruel for the sake of the child? D*mn me, but the child is innocent. You said before that you will raise the children with me.”
After sending the message, he knew Averie would not reply, but he still turned on his phone from time to time to see if there were any new messages.
Before Elyette knew Averie, he had never been so humble. But now, doing such a thing, he doesn’t feel unaccustomed at all.
Because he and Averie have known each other for all these years, he has confessed, repented, apologized, and begged her to forgive her more than once.
Sometimes Elyette begs Averie, she will be soft-hearted, sometimes she won’t.
He had a very strong premonition in his heart that Averie would ignore him this time and would not come back. Even, the two of them will never meet again in the future.
After Layla’s general check-up was finished, the doctor prescribed some medicine to eat.
When they got home, it was 4:40 in the morning.
The door of the villa was open, and the lights in the living room were bright as day.
After Mrs. Cooper coaxed Robert to sleep, she kept waiting in the living room.
Seeing Elyette coming back with Layla in his arms, Mrs. Cooper immediately greeted him.
“Layla’s fever has subsided. I need to wipe her body and change her clothes.” Elyette hugged Layla and went back to the room.
Mrs. Cooper replied, “Sir, go back to your room to rest. I’ll take care of Layla. Otherwise, when Layla wakes up and sees you, she might cry again.”
Elyette looked at his daughter’s pale and haggard sleeping face, murmured in a hoarse voice: “Should I not want Layla’s custody?”
“You like Layla, and if Layla lives by your side, you will definitely treat her very well. She is not used to it now, so she will get used to it. That’s good. But it will take some time to adjust.” Mrs. Cooper said, “When Robert is older and can play with her, she will feel more attributable.”
“But if my daughter keeps crying like this, I will definitely suffer. No.” After what happened tonight, Elyette was exhausted, and his inner persistence was completely destroyed.
If he can contact Averie now, he may send Layla directly to Averie.
It’s a pity that Averie’s phone can’t get through, and sending messages is also in vain.
In fact, he can call Mike and let Mike convey his meaning, but he is unwilling to do so.
This is a matter between him and Averie. If Averie keeps avoiding him, he will not contact her through others.
Elyette wanted to see how hard her heart was!
“Sir, why don’t you go back to your place for a few days first! You can meet again when Layla’s mood calms down a little.” Mrs. Cooper suggested.
Elyette hesitated again and again, and said, “We’ll see how Layla is doing in the morning.”
Mrs. Cooper: “Okay. You go to rest first.”
Putting Layla on the bed, Elyette came out of the room and returned to the master bedroom. He kept his eyes open until dawn. He tried to close his eyes and force himself to sleep, but he had a splitting headache and couldn’t sleep.
There was clearly Averie’s breath in the room. He couldn’t sleep, so he got out of bed and opened the closet.
Her clothes, bags, shoes, and all kinds of jewelry were still there.
Except for her people gone, she didn’t move anything else at all. It’s as if she’s just going on a trip, not saying goodbye.
If it weren’t for the intense heartache reminding him that she was gone, he would really suspect that everything was a nightmare.
At 6:30 in the morning, he went to the bathroom to wash up.
After a little sober, he picked up the phone and turned it on.
Averie didn’t call him back or reply to his messages.
He read the message he sent last night in his mind.
….
Bridgedale.
Ten hours after Averie’s operation, she couldn’t sleep because of the pain.
Mike stayed by the bedside the whole time. It was really painful to see her tossing and turning, so she made up her own mind and asked the nurse to add painkillers to her anti-inflammatory medicine.
When the painkillers entered her body, the pain sensation quickly subsided.
She suddenly felt light, and drowsiness followed. After she breathed evenly, Mike breathed a sigh of relief.
MIke was going to rest for a while in the escort bed next to him.
At this moment, the phone she put on the cabinet rang.
Mike picked up her phone and saw a system alert: The phone battery is low.
He took out his charger and charged her phone.
Out of curiosity, he turned off her phone’s airplane mode. Suddenly, Elyette’s missed calls and messages came out.
Mike read the text message he sent several times, but didn’t understand what he meant.
Does he want to give Layla’s custody to Averie, or does he want Averie to go back and live with him again?
What he meant between the lines was ambiguous and puzzling.
Mike lay down on the escort bed holding Averie’s mobile phone. After hesitating for a while, he texted him back: [Are you willing to give me the custody of Layla?]
After the message was sent, Mike kept an eye on his phone, waiting for a reply.
If Elyette is willing to give Layla’s custody to Averie, Mike can promise not to scold him in the future.
About ten minutes later, Elyette’s message came back: [your daughter is ill, you don’t care about her current situation at all, you only care about her custody.}
Seeing this reply, Mike was so angry that blood rushed to his head, and his fingers quickly typed on the screen: [Whose fault is Layla being sick? It’s you! You didn’t take good care of her, what right do you have to accuse me?]
After typing this string of text, Mike took a deep breath and pressed the send button.
If Averie hadn’t seen things now, he wouldn’t have dared to impersonate her with her mobile phone.
Elyette saw ‘her’ reply and was heartbroken.
He wanted to have a good talk with her, but she didn’t mean it.
Still, he wanted to have a good chat with her about Layla.
He was afraid that she would not answer the phone, so he sent her a message: [Let’s talk on the phone about Layla!]
When Elyette edited the text message and was about to send it, Mike yawned sleepily. Because he didn’t receive his reply immediately, Mike turned off Averie’s phone.
