"You're right. But she has her reasons for doing so. Elliot stood out from his peers, showing intelligence and a level of maturity that was far above that of other people, even in kindergarten. He was Madam Rosalie's pride, and Eason was very proud of him too. The atmosphere at home was also much better than before. Do you think he'll be able to accept the truth behind his background? I think not.
Madam Rosalie is worried that the peace she strived so hard to get would disappear forever," Mrs. Scarlet explained. "I understand how she feels."
Avery understood too.
It was cruel to separate Elliot from his child at Ylore, but she did that nonetheless.
What right did she have to say that Rosalie was a cold-blooded and ruthless woman?
Later that evening, Mrs. Cooper and the three children returned.
Hayden and Layla brought Avery a lot of delicious snacks and sweets.
"Chad brought these special treats from his hometown,” Mrs. Cooper said. "He cooked lunch and dinner today, and I must admit his cooking is really good! He does a spectacular job at presentation too."
"He is. What about Mike?"
"Mike played second fiddle to him today. We went over in the morning, and Chad was the one who entertained us. Mike was sleeping then, but he woke up when Robert fell and cried." Mrs. Cooper laughed, "Have you guys eaten?"
"I did." Avery glanced at the stairs. "He’s still sleeping."
"Why is he still sleeping now? Would you like to wake him up? He won't be able to sleep later tonight if he doesn't wake up soon," Mrs. Cooper reminded.
"I'll go up and check on him." Avery went to see him just before dinner but decided not to wake him up then because he was sleeping soundly.
However, she could not let him sleep any longer because it was starting to get dark.
She pushed open the bedroom door.
The sky was almost fully dark when he looked outside the window
