He covered his mouth and said, “Okay, I think it’s better for me not to say anything. But don’t just ignore what I said. What she did today was just too dangerous. Chad said that Chelsea would have killed and skinned Tammy on the spot if she still had that temper from before.” Averie’s expression turned gloomy and she said emphatically, “If Chelsea had the guts to do that, I’d dig up her ancestor’s graves in addition to killing her.” “…Hey now, take it easy there! I’ll get you a glass of water. Calm down.” Averie sighed heavily.
All of a sudden, Robert burst into tears in the babyed cot.
She immediately stood up and carried the baby.
“Did I scare you because my tone was too fierce earlier?” she said apologetically, “I’m sorry, Darling. I forgot you werezo there.”
“Robert is probably hungry. He last drank milk two hours ago.” Mrs. Cooper came over immediately when she heard the child crying. “I’ll make him some.”
Mike came over with a glass of water and put it on the table. He then took Robert from here8 arms,
“Have you eaten lunch yet?” Averie asked.
“I’m not hungry. I’ll eat when I am.” Mike gestured at the water glass on the table with his chin. “That’s for24 you.”
Averie picked up the water glass and took a sip.
“I heard that you went out pretty early today. I’m sure you’re feeling really tired now, so why don’t you get some sleep? They won’t be back until evening.” Mike said, “Hayden and Layla’s birthdays are tomorrow. What are you going to do if your exhaustion spills over toce tomorrow?” Mike’s words calmed Averie down successfully.
Back at Rosacus City, Elyette and Jun managed to smoothly meet Tammy when they arrived at the police26 station. Her state of mind was beyond what they had imagined. Not only was she not crying, but there were also no signs of fear or remorse on her face either. She did not seem surprised or grateful when she saw them, as if she had yet to exit her resentment-filled mindset.
“Elyette,” Chelsea walked to Elyette’s side. “I didn’t do anything to her. She was the one who almost killed me.”
Chelsea’s neck was tied with gauze.
“Do you think you deserve pity?” Elyette retorted indifferently. “I wouldn’t pity you even if Tammy did kill you. You should have died a long time ago.”
Chelsea sneered in despair. “I know. As of now, I can only let myself be hit and I can’t fight back. If I did, everything I have left now will be taken away by you.”
Chelsea’s words jolted Tammy’s memory. With Elyette and Jun lending their support for her, she was never going to let Chelsea off the hook!
She rushed up to Chelsea and gave her such a fast, tight slap that Chelsea did not even have the time to cover her ears! The slap caused Chelsea’s mask to fall off.
“You’re a maggot, Chelsea! You don’t want anyone to see your face, but that’s exactly what I’m going to do! You’ve got it coming for you! You’ll d the most miserable of deaths!” Tammy’s anger did not seem to decrease one bit and she raised her hand once more to vent out all the rage that she had in her.
Elyette watched coldly at one side without interfering. Jun held Tammy in his arms and turned her around. “Tammy! We’re in a police station! You can’t beat her up here! She’ll get her punishment for sure! And besides, if anyone’s getting their revenge on her, it should be me! Can you please listen to me?!”
Tammy pursed her lips as two streams of hot tears trickled down her face.
She did not want to talk about it again and so she changed the topic. “Why isn’t Averie here?” “I didn’t allow her to come,” Elyette replied. “Let’s head home. She’s worried about you.” Jun carried Tammy up and left the police station with Elyette.
Chelsea covered her hot face with her hands and watched them leave.
“Ms. Tierney, your mask.” Chelsea’s bodyguard handed her the mask.
Chelsea threw the mask away and said angrily, “There’s no point wearing it! I’m not going to wear it anymore! Everyone already knows how ugly I am anyway!”
ed… That evening, Elyette brought Tammy to Averie’s house. Averie hugged Tammy as soon as they saw each23 other.
“I was too impulsive today, Averie,” Tammy said softly. “You were worried about me, weren’t you? I’ll try my best to control myself in the future…”
Averie patted her on the back and said softly, “It’s alright. There are times when you need to vent your feelings or else they’ll suffocate36 you.” “Yeah… Well, I’ve decided that I’m going to see a psychiatrist.” Tammy let go of her and informed Averie of her decision. “Okay, I’ll come with you3a tomorrow.”
“It’s fine, I’ll bring Jun with me.” Tammy had calmed herself down considerably. “I’m feeling a little tired right now, so it’s about time I go back home.”
“Okay, Rest well when you’re home and don’t overthink.” Averie saw her out. “You need to let it out next time if there’s something in your mind. Don’t keep it to yourself and carry the burdends alone.”
“Okay.” After Jun brought Tammy back, Averie and Elyette inadvertently made eye43 contact. “You should leave. Hayden’s coming back soon!” Averie tried chasing him away. “He’ll be back a little later tonight. There’s still time for me to have dinner before I leave.”
Averie was surprised at how he so shamelessly tried to get a free meal. “You can’t seriously be that against the thought of letting me have a meal, right?” Elyette frowned. “I skipped lunch just to pick Tammy up.
I don’t even know if I have the strength to walk out of your courtyard gate If you don’t let me eat something…” “Okay! Fine! Just stop talking and eat something!” Averie glared at him. When he saw how reluctant she was, he said, “Maybe I should just leave.” He then turned around and walked to the door. Averie immediately grabbed Elyette’s arm without hesitation!
“Elyette,” she called out his name. “Just eat, will you!”
He unconsciously curled his lips into a beautiful smile.
Satisfied, he turned around and followed her into the living room.
When Mrs. Cooper saw the two of them coming in, she immediately smiled and said, ” Dinner’s ready. I’ll check and see if Layla has finished her homework.”
Layla had just started elementary school. She had homework every day, and lots of it too.
Averie decided to hire a tutor just to supervise Layla’s daily homework.
Layla was not particularly enthusiastic about learning, and it would be quite difficult for her to keep up if she was not given the necessary push.
