Chapter 496
Avery's mind went blank.She forgot everything she wanted to say.
"They're not even denying it! Hahaha!" teased Wesley's mother.
Wesley scratched his head, then awkwardly changed the subject.
"The results from the blood test should be out by the time we're done with lunch."
Avery nodded, then lowered her head and began to eat.
After lunch, Avery insisted that Wesley did not need t o accompany her back to the hospital to get her results.She already felt bad for troubling him that morning.
Wesley's house was near the hospital, so Avery and Elliot walked to the hospital together.
"Why didn't you let me explain earlier? Do you find pleasure in ambiguity?" she mocked.
"We're not exactly close to Mrs.Brook, so there's no need to argue with her." Elliot walked by her side as he kept his eyes peeled on their environment.
"You might not be close to her, but I am."
"Since you know her so well, you can explain things t o her at any time."
When the light at the crosswalk turned green, Elliot naturally grabbed Avery's hDDr%\wMN and led her across the street.
"I can walk by myself," Avery said as she shook his hand off.
Then, she glanced coldly at him and said, "I will only admit that you are the father to my child.I won't acknowledge any other connection with you."
"Even if you don't acknowledge me as the father of your child, it's the truth," Elliot reminded her.
"We just need to maintain this relationship." Avery had nothing to say.
They arrived at the hospital and got her the results from the checkup.
Avery went through each report in detail.
"How is it? Is it okay?" Elliot asked anxiously.
"Is what okay?" Avery said without looking up.
However, he was stunned for a good few seconds, and Avery had already walked away from him by the time he snapped back to reality.
Her words hurt him deeply.
He did medical checkups every year.He was perfectly healthy and did not carry any of those nasty diseases! Even so, Avery was still suspicious of him! That afternoon, Avery took a peaceful nap.
By the time she woke up and picked up her phone to check the time, it was already five in the evening.She remembered their dinner with Elliot and quickly pulled back the covers.She fixed herself up, then walked out of the bedroom.
The door to the children's room was open, and Layla's laughter could be heard from the hallway.
Avery walked in to find the room in a complete mess! Her brows instantly furrowed.
