Chapter 1695

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 Elliot 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.” Elliot 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.”

Elliot 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, Elliot
was exhausted, and his inner persistence was completely destroyed.

If he can contact Avery now, he may send Layla directly to Avery.

It’s a pity that Avery’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 Avery. If Avery keeps avoiding him, he will not contact her through
others.

Elliot 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.

Elliot 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, Elliot 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 Avery’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.



Avery 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 Avery’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, Elliot’s missed calls and messages
came out.
