They had not informed him ahead of time before visiting. 1
Elliot did not want them over, as they were all strangers to Shea, and they would startle her.
Rosalie stood at the very front and as soon as she saw Shea, her eyes gleamed, and she could not help but approach Shea.
Elliot stood in front of Shea and said, "Mom, why did you come here without telling me first?"
"Today's your- I bought a cake." Rosalie lowered her gaze and mumbled, "I know I shouldn't come here unannounced, but I can't help it..."
She could not resist her urge to see Shea.
Shea heard Rosalie's voice and was both nervous and curious at the same time. Rosalie could see her doe like eyes peeking at her from behind Elliot.
"Shea, you aren't afraid of me, are you?" Rosalie looked at her with anticipation.
Shea immediately lowered her head again, her grip on Elliot's clothes tightening in response.
Elliot reached his hand behind and held her hand.
"Mom, go home! We've already had cake at school," he said coldly. "Take your cake with you."
Rosalie sighed.
Though it was unfortunate, she still felt satisfied to see that her daughter was doing well.
The group soon exited the building and Elliot led Shea back into the house.
"Madame Rosalie has just got here, and she wouldn't let me tell you," Mrs. Cooper said apologetically.
Elliot looked over at Zoe, who was standing by the side.
Zoe immediately explained, "I've been here since six in the evening, Elliot. If you've already had your cakes, then I will take the cake away."
Zoe had brought a cake that she had made herself.
Seeing how frightened she appeared to be, Elliot scowled.
