An hour later, the driver arrived with all of Elliot's necessities. He had even brought a sumptuous dinner. Mrs. Cooper used lunch boxes and thermal insulation containers to pack dinners for at least three people.
"Miss Tate, this is Mr. Elliot's medicine. Thank you for your hard work tonight!" The driver carefully handed the medicine to Avery and then got off work.
Avery sat on the sofa, looking at Elliot's things on the table, lost in thought.
Was she too soft-hearted?! She should have driven him away by noon! That way, it would not be so troublesome!
Suddenly, a coughing sound came from the bedroom. Avery sighed, took Elliot's medicine, and pushed the bedroom door open. It was just the two of them at home now, so she left the door open to ventilate the room.
Elliot had showered and changed into clean clothes. However, the bed was a mess.
"Do you have any hot water?" Elliot was a little thirsty.
Avery put the medicine on the bedside table and went out to get him warm water. Elliot followed her all the way to the kitchen.
"Where's your mom?" He asked.
"Thanks to you, she's staying at the hotel tonight." Avery handed him the water glass. "Are you hungry? The driver brought you dinner. You should eat some!" 1
He did not eat at noon and slept until now, so he must be hungry.
"I'll just have some soup." He had no appetite.
Avery went to the coffee table in the living room and brought dinner over. There was a bowl of soup in it.
Elliot finished the soup and put down the spoon.
"I dirtied the bed. Do you have clean sheets? I'll change it." His face was still pale, but he had just taken a shower and looked refreshed. 1
