Chapter 1000

Avery took the blueprint and glanced at him.She replied, “Who said that my beauty is for Elliot? Can't I
be beautiful for myself? Can't I be beautiful for you?"

Mike snorted.

"This patient of yours lives very close to Elliot! What a coincidence!"

The drawings that Mike gave her were maps he drew.

The red dot in the middle of the map was Elliot's villa.To the southeast, there was another red dot.

This represented the approximate direction of the phone signal.

"There is no way to get a more accurate position.I only managed to get this one.," Mike said.

"Didn't you say that Elliot supports you? If you ask Elliot to send his men to search the nearby houses,
you will find your patient for sure."

Avery put away the drawings and shook his head.

"He is busy with the wedding, I'll find it myself!""How do you plan on doing so? Let the bodyguards find
it."

Mike was afraid that something bad might happen to her.

"Just stay put and count down the days to you becoming a beautiful bride."

"Mike, I know you're worried about me," Avery said to him.



"He's not in danger for the time being, and I didn't say I would go to him immediately.Now that I know
where he is, I feel much more at ease."

"Oh, then I'll get back to work." Mike walked out.

After Mike left, Avery unfolded the drawing once more.

She was familiar with the layout of the neighborhood Elliot's villa was located in.

Elliot’s villa was a bungalow surrounded by trees for hundreds of feet.

The main road was a mile away from his villa.

The drawings Mike made showed that the phone signal came from a large stretch of land that was next
to the main road.

There was a small community living there.

Trying to go door-to-door would be akin to trying to find a needle in a haystack.

Besides, she thought of something even creepier.

When Nathan White and his family had relocated to Aryadelle, they had chosen to live right next to
Elliot's villa, and that could not be a coincidence.

It seemed that she had to find a chance to have a good talk with Nathan White.

Nobody knew if he had been discharged from the hospital.

After dinner at dusk, Avery took Layla out for a walk in the neighborhood.

Avery pushed the stroller, and Layla held her arm.



As they walked, Layla told her mother what had happened to her in school today.

"Mommy, we all had counseling this week. Classes will only officially start next week."

"Got it.I know that you had counseling this week.Your teacher notified us about it in the class group
chat."

"Mom, I think the psychology teacher looks like Grandma."

"Do you still remember what grandma looked like?"

Avery thought of her mother and said with a hint of melancholy, "If she were still alive, she would be
very happy to see how beautiful and brave you are."

"Of course, I remember what my grandma looked like.Mommy is my grandma's daughter, and Mommy
looks just like grandma!"

Layla grew silent after that declaration, and they heard a tiny voice come from the stroller.

"Mommy!"

Avery and Layla were taken by surprise.

"Did Robert just speak his first word?!" Avery thought.

Had spoken his first word, and it was Mommy! Elliot was at the Sterling Group headquarters.

In the morning, he had gone to their wedding venue, where the wedding banquet will be held.He had
not returned to the company till late in the afternoon, so he was now working overtime.

The executives accompanied him.



The phone on the table beeped.He saw that it was Avery and answered.

"Elliot! Robert just called me Mommy!"

Avery was not able to contain her excitement.

"Hold on, let me see if I can get Robert to do it again! He is very soft, and he sounds just like a little
girl!"

Avery turned to Robert, ''Baby, can say mommy again."

Robert looked at Avery's gentle face and said, "Mommy!"

Elliot heard the tiny voice and the word 'mommy'.
