“Hmm, do you want to take a break for Memorial Day? I’m not doing anything.
I can care for the children.”
Upon Averie’s words, Mike immediately hinted at Mrs. Cooper with his eyes.
Mrs. Cooper saw Mike’s hint, but she was confused.
What did Mike mean?
Averie followed Mrs. Cooper’s gaze and looked at Mike.
“Are your eye muscles cramped?”
Mike immediately retracted his gaze.
He coughed.
“I think you should discuss it with Elyette first.
What if Elyette is asking you out?”
Mrs. Cooper immediately understood what Mike meant.
“Averie, I won’t take the day off on Memorial Day.
I’ll wait for a while.”
“Oh, okay then.”
After dinner, Averie went to help the children to pack.
In the dining hall, Mrs. Cooper asked Mike, “What was the hint you gave me just now?”
Mike said softly, “Elyette is planning to propose on Memorial Day.”
Mrs. Cooper said, “Averie doesn’t know about that?”
Mike replied, “That man wants to give her a surprise.”
Mrs. Cooper blushed.
“Then, why don’t I take Robert along with you two! They indeed have not spent any time together for a long time.”
Mike said, “Okay! If you think it’s too far to go abroad, we could have a trip in the country too.
Mrs. Cooper said, “Okay! As long as Averie and Mr. Foster have fun on Memorial Day, I’m fine with anything.”
In the children’s room, after Averie packed for the children, she came out of their room and bumped into Mrs. Cooper.
“Averie, I plan to take Robert along with Mike and the others on Memorial Day.”
Averie was stunned.
“Are you sure?”
Mrs. Cooper smiled widely.
“Hmm, don’t worry.
I will take care of Robert.
I will make sure he doesn’t fall sick.”
“Why did you change your mind suddenly?” Averie felt something was off.
“If you were to take Robert out, I would be home alone.”
Mrs. Cooper said, “Get Master Elyette to come and be with you! I’ve already told Mike.”
Mrs. Cooper left.
Averie returned to her room and called Elyette.
“Elyette, do you have any plans on Memorial Day?”
On the other end of the line, Elyette clearly had not thought about this matter.
His tone was rather laidback.
“Memorial Day is not here yet, right?”
“It’s in two days.
Mike is going to take Hayden and Robert out to play.
Eric will be taking Layla scuba diving.
I thought I was the only one who hasn’t planned for the holidays yet.” Averie sounded a little sad.
“I never thought that you haven’t planned for it yet.
Don’t tell me you’ll still be busy preparing for the wedding on Memorial Day?”
Elyette did not answer her question, but asked her, “They are all going out and leaving you home alone?”
“Yes! Are you trying to take pity on me? Aren’t you alone too?”
”How do you plan to celebrate? I’ll come to be with you.” Elyette chuckled a little.
“Oh…let’s talk about it later! I’ll go think it through while I’m in the shower.” Averie let out a sigh.
She murmured; “Suddenly the children are leaving me.
I’m not used to this feeling.”
Elyette was just thinking of a way to console her when she added, “But I’m happy! I can finally not care about the kids.
The next few days will be all about me!”
Elyette was speechless.
“By the way, Averie, your patient, Adrian.
What is his father’s name?” Elyette suddenly asked.
The smile on Averie’s face vanished.
“Why are you suddenly concerned about this?”
“You said that his family treated him badly.
You also planned to look for him.
Tell me about his family, I’ll help you look for him.” Elyette wanted to make sure Adrian was the young master 034f the Fosters who was taken away back then.
If it was not him, that was the best.
it was him, he had to act.
He had to make sure this person never appeared in public.
Averie’s breathing suddenly turned heavy.
Elyette already knew that Nathan White was his biological father.
At that moment, when he mentioned Adrian, he must have suspected something.
Averie did not dare to think about what would happen if Elyette knew about Adrian’s identity and how he would react.
She was afraid that the outcome would be something she did not want to see.
“You’re so busy.
You don’t have to help.
It’s best if I can find him, but if I can’t find him, I won’t keep looking for him,” Averie said calmly, “Let’s think of what to do during Memorial Day!”
“Hmm.”
After hanging up, Averie sat by the bed with mixed emotions.
From how she understood Elyette, if he wanted to keep his current identity, he would never let Adrian live.
Even if he was very close to Shea, he would not spare Adrian any mercy just because he was Shea’s twin brother.
If he was not cruel, he would not be able to climb to where he was that day.
Thus, Averie had to look for Adrian as quickly as possible and transfer him to a safe location.
On the other side, Elyette picked up his wine glass and took a sip.
He was almost sure that namesake-wise, Adrian’s father was Nathan.
Nathan would not just bring Adrian up for free.
Rosalie must have been secretly wiring money to him all those years.
After Rosalie passed away, Nathan’s source of income dried up, which was why he brought Adrian to Aryadelle to look for Elyette for money.
It was a pity that Elyette would not give in to Nathan’s ploy.
Elyette downed the glass of wine and made a phone call
“Go and check if there is a man called Adrian by Nathan’s side.” Elyette’s tone was cold without any warmth.
“If there is…”
Elyette’s words were stuck in his throat.
Adrian was Shea’s twin.
He should be Foster’s young master.
Although he might not be liked by his father, a comfortable life was guaranteed.
Elyette thought about how he took over his name, family, and life, but at that moment, he even wanted to kill him to ensure that his reputation and life would not be affected.
Was that too cruel?
“Mr. Foster, if this man is there, what should I do?” The bodyguard on the other end of the line asked, “Please tell me what to do.”
Elyette was silent for a while.
He swallowed his saliva.
“Make him disappear from the face of the earth.”
Since he knew that he was going to hell, he was going to be as selfish as he could! God dealt him a bad set of cards.
If he was going to be merciful, he would never win!
At the Starry River Villa, Averie came out of the shower feeling extremely nervous.
Although Elyette and her were about to get married, and everything seemed happy and joyous, Averie could sense that he was still the stubborn, strong – headed man who would never bow down to anyone.
Adrian had become the wedge between them.
This wedge would not only end up hurting them both, but it would also change the sweet relationship they had going on at that moment.
After drying her hair, Averie looked at herself in the mirror, breathing heavily.
Why should she think of the worst possible scenario to intimidate herselgaf when things have barely happened?
Since Elyette was willing to marry her, as long as she could talk to him properly, there would surely be a better solution to the issue about Adrian.
At that thought, Averie felt some pressure disappear of gof her shoulders.
She got in bed and looked at her phone, checking on where to go during Memorial Day.
She looked at the famous sightseeing places around, but she was not enthusiastic about any of those.
No matter where they went, it would be filled with people.
Elyette did not like to go to places with a crowd.
Even if she got him to go, even if he was willing to do it, he would surely be unhappy.
Thus, she searched for non-famous tourist spots.
There would surely be less crowding in the less famous tourist spots.
