Chapter 804

The call soon connected. Elliot’s low and mesmerizing voice came through.

“Layla?”

“It’s me,” Avery said awkwardly, “Why did you transfer money to me?”

Elliot said, “Those are for the children.”

Avery was even more awkward.

“If you want to give them money, can’t you give them in person? Why do you have to send it to me?”

Elliot explained, “Did you not see the message Layla sent to me? She sent me a voice message
greeting with your phone.”

Avery was speechless. She wanted to dig a hole for herself and hide in it. She only saw the transfers.
She did not scroll up.

She tapped open their chat and scrolled up. She saw that she sent a voice message over. It must have
been Layla.

Avery took a deep breath. She was feeling so awkward she was blushing. She did not know what to do.

“Mommy!” Right at that moment, Layla ran into her room. Seeing Avery holding her phone, Layla
immediately covered her mouth with her hand.

Avery looked at her and passed her the phone.

“Your father.”



After all, Elliot answered the call by saying Layla’s name. Their father-daughter relationship was
moving

Layla took over the phone and asked, “Daddy, did you see the message I sent?”

“I saw it. I sent you some money, it’s on your mother’s phone.”

“Oh, only for me? Does Hayden have some?”

“Yes.”

“What about Robert?” Layla continued.

“Yes, there is.”

“Hehe, what about Mommy?” Layla asked cheekily, “Mommy has been taking care of us. It’s tiring.”

Elliot responded, “Yes.” He immediately added on for her.

Suddenly, the fireworks in front of him lit up the night skies!

He looked at the brilliant fireworks in the sky. He was suddenly not afraid of the dark anymore.
Fireworks would only shine the brightest under the dark skies, so darkness was not that intimidating
after all.

“Daddy! Are you having fireworks over there? I can hear them!” Layla yelled excitedly.

“Hmm, do you want to see?” Elliot asked.

“I do! Let’s turn on our cameras!” Layla’s words made Avery, who was changing her clothes by the side,
stiffened.



To make it feel more festive, she bought herself a red dress. The three children were in red too, it made
it seem more festive that way.

When she had changed into her dress, Layla was already on a video call with Elliot. “Mommy, Daddy is
having fireworks! It’s so pretty!” Layla took the phone ran over to Avery

Layla did not even give Avery the chance to hide. She immediately faced the phone with her.

Elliot had the back camera of his phone turned on so that Layla could see the fireworks. Avery could
not see him, but he could see her face.

The moment he saw her, his palms started sweating. Although he knew that she could not see him, his
heart still skipped a beat.

She was wearing a red dress with her hair down. Her eyes were clear and bright. She was looking at
him seriously.

No. She was not looking at him. She was looking at the fireworks on her phone.

‘Elliot took a deep breath to calm himself down, yet he could not help but stare at her.

“Mommy, I want fireworks too!” Layla pouted.

Avery patted Layla on the head. “We can’t put fireworks here. If you want to play with fireworks, we can
drive to the outskirts tonight.”
