Avery carried Robert back into Tammy's house after the call with Elliot.
"Why are you giggling? Everything is fine?" Tammy asked.
"Yeah. I called him just now. He said that he doesn't remember what happened last night, so I didn't bother asking. I'm about to marry him. If I don't trust him, how are we supposed to spend the rest of our lives together?"
Jun sighed a long breath of relief at Avery's words.
"Avery, I was just talking to Tammy, and I was wondering whether you were planning to take Robert with you when you went to confront Elliot. Tammy said you won't. She told me that you will send Robert home before going to see Elliot." Jun was not sure whether to laugh or cry, as they had both been wrong.
Avery chuckled. In the past, she might have gone straight to find Elliot upon catching his lie as Tammy and Jun had predicted.
"I can be understanding and forgiving to others, but I somehow lose my temper all the time whenever I'm with him." Avery reflected on her actions and said, "After confessing everything to one another the last time, I realized that all the things he had kept from me were his darkest secrets. He hid them from me because he knew that I wouldn't be able to help him and that they would only burden me. He did not keep them from me out of a lack of trust." "It's great that you think like this now, Avery," Jun said. "I believe that you two must have given it a lot of thought before deciding to get remarried, so you will definitely treasure your relationships from now on."
"Aren't you going to work?" Tammy asked.
"I'll get going now." Jun pinched Robert on the cheek gently before leaving. "Uncle Jun is going to work now! Let's play next time!"
Tammy shed all pretenses once Jun left.
"Avery, Jun really likes kids."
"Most people do when they reach a certain age," Avery said.
"He has a box filled with his collectibles from the past, which he wouldn't let me touch. I opened the box yesterday and found a love letter inside." Tammy's expression darkened. "It was a love letter that he had written for a girl, ;g"?WLW? he was fantasizing about having children with that girl."
