Robert held snacks in his hand, watching her while eating.
Robert looked like a miniature version of Elyette, but he was not as serious as Elyette. Like other children of his age, he was full of cuteness.
“It’s a long story. First Mike went to Chad and said you were back. Then Chad told Mike that Elyette has gone abroad and now is a good time for you to see Robert, so Mike asked Gwen and Gwen asked me to bring Robert to you…” After Ben Schaffer told the reason, Averie was very grateful.
“Thank you! I really haven’t seen Robert for a long time. Even if I just look at Robert like this now, I’m very satisfied.” Averie didn’t expect to see her son so smoothly, so for a while, she didn’t know what to do measures.
She especially wanted to hug Robert, and wanted to say sorry to Robert. But she knew that this would only scare Robert.
“Don’t blame Robert. Robert is a child after all, and whoever is around to take care of him will kiss him.” Ben Schaffer saw the loss in her eyes, so he comforted, “Robert and Elyette has a very good relationship. Just like Layla and Hayden did to you.”
Averie: “How could I blame Robert. I didn’t take care of him. To him, I was actually a stranger.”
Ben Schaffer said, “Well, when you return to Aryadelle this time, How long do you plan to stay? If you stay longer, I’ll bring Robert over next time. Even if Elyette knows about it, it’s me to blame.”
Averie said, “When I come back this time, I should stay for a long time. When Elyette comes back, I will talk to him about the child’s visitation rights. I never let him see Hayden, so he can’t stop me from seeing Robert.”
“If you want to talk, you must talk calmly but don’t say a word and quarrel again.”
Ben Schaffer originally wanted to persuade Averie, but Averie retorted: “You should tell him this. As long as he doesn’t quarrel with me, I naturally won’t quarrel with him.”
“Oh, good.” Ben Schaffer touched his nose, then picked Robert up from behind and put it on his lap, letting Averie take a good look at him, “Robert, this is your mother What are you afraid of? If your sister sees her mother coming back, she will definitely jump up happily!”
“I’m afraid.” Robert’s soft and waxy voice came in a low voice.
Ben Schaffer laughed and patted his head: “You’re a man, be brave.”
“I’m afraid.” Robert lowered his head, focused on the snacks in his hand, and didn’t dare to face it.
Averie felt that her son’s reaction was very real. It should be well protected.
“Robert, do you want to watch your sister’s videos when she was a child?” Averie thought of a way to get closer to Robert.
She turned on her phone, found the video of Layla’s childhood, and clicked it.
Layla’s voice came from the phone, and Robert was immediately attracted.
Ben Schaffer carried Robert to Averie’s side and watched Layla’s video together.
After about ten minutes, Ben Schaffer walked away from Robert, and Robert stood beside Averie, not as scared as before.
When he sees excitement, he will laugh with Layla in the video.
“Robert, do you like your father very much?” Averie found a topic to chat with her son.
“Yeah!” Robert nodded without thinking, “Do you like my dad?”
Averie was stunned. She didn’t expect the little guy to ask back.
Averie: “I liked it before.”
“Oh…” Robert got the answer and continued watching the video.
At his age, he still doesn’t understand the meaning and difference between ‘before’ and ‘now’.
At about four o’clock in the afternoon, Mrs. Cooper called Ben Schaffer and asked Ben Schaffer to send Robert back.
At this time, Averie was busy in the kitchen. She wanted to cook a dinner for Robert herself, but after Ben Schaffer answered the phone, he immediately brought Robert to the kitchen and said goodbye to Averie.
“Averie, Mrs. Cooper called me and asked me to send Robert back now.” Ben Schaffer looked at Averie wearing an apron and knew that she would be very disappointed to do so, but Mrs. Cooper’s attitude was very firm, “Mrs. Cooper knows that I brought the child to you. She is afraid that Elyette will be angry. If there is a chance in the future, I will bring Robert here again.”
Averie couldn’t make it difficult for Mrs. Cooper and Ben Schaffer, so she quickly take off her apron and send them out.
Averie: “When Elyette comes back, let me know!”
“Okay.” Ben Schaffer hugged Robert into the car and apologized, “I’m sorry, I’m afraid that next time Mrs. Cooper won’t be so quick to let me take Robert out. After all Robert is usually led by her, and Robert especially listens to her words.”
“Averie: I understand. Thank you very much for bringing Robert here today. It’s normal for Robert to be afraid of me. When I was determined to divorce Elyette, I thought of this outcome.”
“Do you regret it?” After putting Robert in the child safety seat, Ben Schaffer asked Averie.
“I didn’t understand the older generation, why did they always persuade divorced couples to endure for the sake of their children, until I saw you and Elyette’s children, I finally understood a little.” Ben Schaffer waited Averie replied and continued.
“I know that my insistence on divorce will hurt my children a lot. But if I don’t get divorced, I will live a very miserable life. I thought that if I was in pain every day, I would not be able to give my children a warm and loving family.”
Averie explained. Her explanation answered the previous question.
She doesn’t regret her divorce from Elyette.
After Ben Schaffer left, Averie returned home. She went straight to the kitchen, wrapped the prepared dishes in plastic wrap, and put them in the refrigerator.
If she eats dinner alone, she doesn’t need to start cooking now.
After cleaning up the kitchen, she went back to the living room and lay down on the sofa.
After a busy afternoon, her lower back was a little sore.
But she is sober now.
Before Robert was one year old, she had been by Robert’s side, and Robert liked Averie very much at that time.
But after not seeing him for more than two years, Robert didn’t remember the past.
Averie must find Haze quickly and let Haze return to her or Elyette’s side.
Seeing Robert today and seeing that Robert was well taken care of, her resentment towards Elyette was relatively relieved.
Ben Schaffer sent Robert home, and then went to pick up Gwen from get off work.
After Gwen knew that Averie was coming this morning, she agreed to see Averie tonight.
In the evening, Mike brought Chad over as well.
Everyone gathered at the Starry River Villa, drinking and chatting together.
Foster family.
The black Rolls Royce slowly drove into the villa.
Elyette flew to Yonroeville last night, but he heard that Averie had returned to Aryadelle, so he rejected the enthusiasm of Nick and returned to Aryadelle.
When Elyette came home, it happened to be dinner time.
Mrs. Cooper didn’t expect him to end his journey in Yonroeville so quickly. After counting the time, he arrived in Yonroeville and returned immediately.
Mrs. Cooper breathed a sigh of relief in her heart.
Fortunately, she asked Ben Schaffer to send Robert back early in the afternoon.
Otherwise, if Robert hadn’t come back by this time, Mrs. Cooper would definitely not be able to help lie.
“Dad!” Robert jumped into his arms excitedly when he saw his father, “Dad, I miss you so much!”
The little guy’s mouth was as sweet as honey, and Elyette’s tiredness of running back and forth was swept away. .
“Dad misses you too. Do you want to sleep with Dad tonight?”
“Of course I will.” Robert said, extending his small hand to Dad, “Dad, where are the legs of my robot?”
Elyette didn’t expect his son’s memory was so good.
Elyette: “It’s in Dad’s bag, Dad got it for you.”
Elyette bought the robot in a store in Aryadelle. At that time, he specially asked the clerk to remove one of the robot’s legs.
Children are relatively simple, and just coaxing and deceiving them can make them obedient and happy.
Elyette put his son on the ground, Robert followed his father with his hands and feet.
“Dad, I went out to play today.” Robert suddenly reported his schedule to his father.
“It’s so hot outside, who took you out?” Elyette touched his son’s head.
“Uncle Ben took me out.” Robert pursed his lips, and without waiting for Mrs. Cooper to stop him, he told everything, “Uncle Ben took me to my mother’s house.”
Elyette opened the suitcase, and after listening to his son’s words, his body stopped, as if he had forgotten what he was going to do.
