“Early retirement and one week leave, choose one.” Elyette didn’t disapprove, but felt that half a month was too long.
Right now, the company’s business is heavy. Ben Schaffer doesn’t want to help share the pressure. Instead, he chases women so happily. How does Elyette balance his heart?
Don’t say Gwen is his sister. Since he divorced Averie, Gwen has stood by Averie unswervingly, and she has long lost his brother in her eyes.
Ben Schaffer pursed his lips, unable to decide.
Sometimes he really want to retire early… After all, he has worked for half his life, and the wealth he has now can also support his early retirement.
“Or…” Ben Schaffer wanted to talk to him about early retirement.
“Retire early, don’t even think about it.” Elyette didn’t expect that Ben really wanted to retire. “One week off, not even one more day.”
Ben Schaffer sighed heavily: “Why did you go back on your word?”
Elyette: “Let’s take a break from today!”
“No! Gwen hasn’t arrived yet. I’m fishing for a day today, and I’ll start a vacation tomorrow.” Ben Schaffer deliberately angered him, “It’s summer vacation, is Layla going to Bridgedale again?”
“You just speak well, why do you laugh?” Elyette looked at the smile on his face and asked.
The smile on Ben Schaffer’s face froze: “I… just heard a gossip about Averie. Don’t rush to interrupt me, what I’m about to say is not important! It’s just a little funny. Haven’t I been to Bridgedale many times before, but I never saw Averie, and several times I asked to see her, but she didn’t see me either. People around her didn’t tell me anything about her… ..I didn’t know until yesterday that she went to study for a doctorate in the past two years.”
“Hahahahaha! Isn’t it particularly funny?” Ben Schaffer saw the indifferent expression on Elyette’s face, so he laughed to himself.
The expression on Elyette’s face became more serious. He really didn’t understand where Ben Schaffer thought was funny.
“Don’t you think it’s funny?” Ben Schaffer rubbed his hands embarrassedly, “I think her IQ surpasses that of ordinary people. If you want to study for a Ph.D., go for it, and graduate casually. It’s as simple as buying cabbage. “
Who buys cabbage for two years?” Elyette retorted, “Aren’t you also a doctor?”
“I have no comparison with her. My major is a good graduate, her major is much more difficult, and the general medical major is better than other majors. The school system is long, so she finished her doctorate in two years, which is really good.” Ben said, “If you are not convinced, you can also go for a doctoral test.”
Elyette: “It’s boring.”
Ben Schaffer whispered, “Well, you should be right now. She is no longer interested in news. Are you interested in Norah Jones? As far as I know, she has been waiting for the top! I think Norah Jones is not bad. She is outstanding in every aspect. But the most important thing is that she is very professional and works just like you. If the two of you are together, it will be a strong alliance.”
Elyette: “Not interested.”
Ben Schaffer: “Don’t you plan to remarry? Elyette, your future is still very long, you don’t have to resist women and marriage because of your last failed marriage.”
Elyette: “I don’t need it.”
Ben: “Uh…don’t you have that need? It’s easier to find a woman…”
“I can solve it myself.” Elyette was reluctant to continue this topic, and said sharply, “You go out.”
Ben Schaffer didn’t expect to talk to him about women after two years. He is still so resistant to marriage.
When the office door was closed, Elyette reached out and rubbed his eyebrows.
After the divorce, he never returned to Aryadelle. He didn’t expect her to go to a blog.
Now that Averie has graduated, will she go back to Aryadelle to take care of the children?
Bridgedale.
Averie and Adrian took Gwen to the airport, and after Gwen passed the security check, the two came out of the airport.
“Adrian, I’m afraid Gwen won’t be back in a short time. Would you like to move to my house?” Averie asked, “I have a lot of empty rooms in my house, and I usually stay at home alone.”
Adrian shook his head: “I don’t want to move here. I can take care of myself.”
“Adrian, I don’t think you need someone to take care of you. I want more people to talk to.” Averie explained, “I know you can not only do housework, but also cook now. I don’t need a nanny anymore.”
“The teacher Gwen hired for me lives in a community with me. My teacher is very old and has a lot of time every day. So he often comes to me.” Adrian said this matter, “I like to learn to draw with him.”
Averie: “Well. Do you want to learn to draw with him today?”
Adrian: “We made an appointment in the afternoon.”
“Okay, we have dinner together at noon, and I will send you back.” Averie was happy for Adrian, “Not everyone can find something they like to do, you must persevere well. Maybe in a few years, you will be able to open a solo exhibition.”
Adrian: “I will do my best.”
After lunch, Averie sent Adrian home.
Averie specially waited for the old gentleman who taught Adrian to draw and chatted with him for a while before leaving.
The old man had just retired and was relatively leisurely. Before retiring, he was a college art teacher.
The old man liked to teach people how to draw. Although Adrian had zero foundation and lacks talent, but was careful and diligent enough, and the old man was very willing to teach him.
Averie drove home and walked straight to the bedroom.
Just as she was about to lie down, a phone call came.
She saw Eric’s name and immediately answered the phone.
Eric: “Averie, I took a show, and there was a very important supporting role in it, which was very suitable for Layla. I showed it to Layla, and Layla liked it very much. I want to bring her into the show. She is more confused now. Because she really wants to go to your side, she hasn’t made up her mind yet.”
Averie listened to Eric’s words, and her brain began to run at a high speed.
Seeing that Averie didn’t speak, Eric continued, “This role has a lot of scenes. If you are in the group, it will take at least a month. If you agree to Layla going to film with me, then I can take her to find you after mid-August. What do you think?”
“Eric, does Layla really want to try?” Averie is all based on Layla’s wishes.
“I think she likes it. It’s just that the shooting time is a little long. She said that she had made a summer vacation plan before, and if I went to film wthout Layla, the plan would be disrupted.”
Averie: “Then I will talk to Layla tomorrow. Now that I’m graduating, I can go back to Aryadelle to see her at any time.”
Eric: “Are you sure you can go back to Aryadelle?”
“Why can’t I go back to Aryadelle? I’m not a wanted criminal in Aryadelle.” Averie couldn’t help laughing, “I didn’t go back to Aryadelle before because I…I’m quite busy with the subject, and I really can’t get away.”
“I thought you were planning to never return to Aryadelle because of some people!” Eric laughed.
Averie: “Do I look like such a coward?”
Eric said bluntly, “I don’t think you are, but your behavior sometimes makes people incomprehensible. Do you know how the country talks about you? Netizens who were full and panicked said that you took sky- high alimony from Elyette, and at the same time promised Elyette that you would never return to Aryadelle. If I were you, I would definitely kill and return to Aryadelle as soon as possible.”
Averie said calmly, “Eric, there is no need to spread rumors. Take it to heart. Now, I’m a little sleepy, so I’ll take a nap first. I’ll call you back after I chat with Layla.”
Eric: “Okay. If you go back to Aryadelle someday, remember to tell me in advance.”
Averie: “Well.”
After hanging up, Averie closed her eyes.
She thought she could fall asleep quickly, but she tossed and turned on the bed for an hour and still couldn’t fall asleep.
All kinds of people and things flashed in her mind. Her head seemed to explode, and her heart couldn’t settle down.
She scratched her messy hair, got up and got out of bed, walked to the window, and opened the curtains.
The scorching sun did not know when to hide in the dark clouds. Looking at the gray-blue sky outside, she suddenly wanted to go out to get some air.
In the past two years, she has been avoiding all news related to Elyette, and the people around her have a tacit understanding, never mentioning him and everything in front of her.
Now, Averie suddenly wanted to see the Tate Industries branch built in Bridgedale.
Averie searches for the company address on her mobile phone, and after finding the address, she drives out.
It takes about half an hour to drive from home. In terms of her usual living radius of no more than 10 kilometers, this part of the road is a bit long.
But at this time, she had an obsession in her heart. Even if his branch opened further away, she would drive to see it.
This point was not during the rush hour, and the road was unobstructed.
About half an hour later, she came to the address found on the Internet.
She got out of the car and stood in front of the company. She frowned tightly.
–This is Tate Industries Aryadelle branch?
–How does it feel weird.
